What does this mean?

This is a Chinese porcelain bowl with dragon and fire motifs. The base has labels in English and mainland simplified Chinese (post-1950s). It is painted with gold detailing and the rim is in the millefleur style, with pink flowers over gold. Small hand painted bowls like this from the 20th century can sell for between $150 and $250 at auction. I have added a few links below for comparison.
