First pick of this interesting Chinese lock, as far as I know. It's a six pin in pin, (of which two outers are set by active elements on the key) plus a four slider sidebar. A quick look at the key will reveal that it's an attempt at cloning the Mul-T-Lock MT5+ - more homage than copy really - but with much poorer manufacturing tolerances and overall poorer quality. Still, it's the best Chinese lock I've seen in a while and in my view they got it half right. It's also sometimes known as a "Five Colours Lock" but is considerably different to other locks of this name from the same manufacturer.
