Hi Beeny.
Tachinidae, I think.

Thanks a lot!

and another one,it's also a Tachinidae?Do you know the genus?

Surely, it is Tachinidae, but for genus and species you need to wait for Theo Zeegers, he is expert.

The 2nd pic shows a Gymnosoma (Tachinidae). Here's a thread with an European species of the same genus:

I observed many similar Tachinids in Japan to that on your first enclosed image.

For example: http://xespok.net...1000036473

But Tachinids of Japan are not properly known, so I can not help you.

The first one looks a hell of a lot like the European Dexiosoma canina.

the first one is a Tachinid.
It looks like Dexiosoma, it could be.
My guess would be Dexia, but I cannot be sure.
It looks even more like the European Dexia vacua. But there are many Dexia in China.
Xespok's link fly seems even more likely to be Dexia.
