It originally referred to the entrance and exit of ancient mountain passes, such as 山海关 (shān hǎi guān) being an important 关口 (guān kǒu). Now it is also used metaphorically, such as 经济关口 (jīng jì guān kǒu) or 心理关口 (xīn lǐ guān kǒu). For example: 'The company is at a critical 关口 (guān kǒu) in its development and needs to make decisions carefully.'
