Abstract: For a compact minimal hypersurface $M$ in $S^{n+1}$ with the squared length of the second fundamental form $S$ we confirm that there exists a positive constant $de(n)$ depending only on $n,$ such that if $nleqSleqn+delta(n)$, then $Sequivn$, i.e., $M$ is a Clifford minimal hypersurface, in particular, when $nge6,$ the pinching constant $de(n)=fn23.$
