This is an official receipt for tax purposes unlike the regular receipt that is probably sufficient for your expense account if you do not work for a Chinese company.
There is a bit of a commerce for official receipts (fapiao). We have a few friends who have their business and we always ask for a fapiao in their name even though we paid for dinner. And when we think about it, we also ask for one elsewhere, including hotels, and give it to them.
