The effects of IPRs

① Ask a question

Are IPRs necessary for the development of China? China has made trademark law, patent law, and copyright law one by one since the 1980s. The legislation provides legal ground for the protection of intellectual property rights. Today, more and more people focus on creating new intellectual property and applying for intellectual property right. The legislation of intellectual property rights is important for the creation of new technique, the protection of intellectual property, and the development of hi-tech industry.

② Attention grabber

According to a piece of news, almost 60000 cases of intellectual property are heard in the courts of first instance in 2011. The number increases by forty percent from a year ago. This means that more people realize the importance of intellectual property rights protection. And the quantity of patent application and trademark registration in china ranks one of the top in the world. Except that, the gross income of hi-tech industry in Zhong Guan-cun is more than 1.96 trillion Yuan in 2011. The legislation of intellectual property rights is important for the creation of new technique, the protection of intellectual property, and the development of hi-tech industry.

③ Anecdote

Liqiang, a creative and thinking college student, invented a new technique and applied for a patent during his study. Then he signed a patent license contract with a company to authorize it to use the patent. Both he and the company benefited a large sum of money from the patent. However, another manufactory used the same patent without Liqiang’s permission. Finally, he sued the manufactory for infringement of intellectual property rights according to the Patent Law. Liqiang is not the only one who benefits from the IPRs. The legislation of intellectual property rights is important for the creation of new technique, the protection of intellectual property, and the development of hi-tech industry.
