Who knows, prostitutes, good guests and shelters are one thing?

At the end of 2000- 19, the Trademark Review and Adjudication Board, after strict examination and trial, decided that "typhoon shelter" was not an original word, but a conventional term in the catering industry. Registration as a trademark violates the Trademark Law and the Trademark Review and Adjudication Rules, and violates the principles of good faith and fair competition. In the final analysis, it is also the true nature of a "typhoon shelter"-a paradise for legal operation and fair competition in the catering industry, rather than a territory monopolized by speculators.

The story of the typhoon shelter

What exactly is a typhoon shelter? Why is it popular all over the world?

Every year from June to September, typhoons hit Hong Kong. In order to prevent ships entering and leaving Hong Kong from being attacked by typhoons, the Hong Kong government built a typhoon shelter in Victoria Harbour on 1862. In addition to berthing 50 giant ships there, many small ships will also come here to avoid typhoons. * * * There are 1 1 typhoon shelters, the largest of which is Causeway Bay, which is called typhoon shelter by local people.

Since the 1960s, due to environmental pollution, it is difficult for fishermen who make a living by fishing in the coastal areas of Hong Kong to fish in the waters near Hong Kong, and it is difficult to make a living by fishing alone. Fishermen who have made the sea their home for generations are reluctant to leave the sea. In contrast, the bustling Causeway Bay has gradually become the most prosperous consumer and entertainment area in Hong Kong.

Some fishermen set their eyes on Causeway Bay and began to sail to Causeway Bay, set up a stove and manage special food with fishermen's unique cooking methods. For example: seafood, porridge, noodles, etc. The most famous ones are "Fried Crab with Pepper in Typhoon Shelter", "Shrimp in Typhoon Shelter" and "Fried Noodles in Typhoon Shelter".

Every night arrival, colorful fishing boats dock on the shore in droves, people enjoy food and performances in rowing boats, and a scene of singing and dancing has gradually formed a "water market".

Since 1980s, "typhoon shelter" has been brought ashore with its special flavor. Since then, Japanese, Singaporean, American, Chinese mainland and Taiwan Province provinces have quietly set up "typhoon shelters", and some cities have introduced "typhoon shelters" into star-rated hotels.

The judge unveiled the typhoon shelter

After half a year's investigation and trial, the court finally decided that the word "typhoon shelter" was only used to introduce the characteristics of catering services, but not used for the name of the enterprise. In the long-term continuous development of business activities, it has gradually become the name of a special flavor dish and a catering management mode generally accepted by consumers. "Typhoon Shelter" cannot be the exclusive service name of a company. Therefore, the use of the word "typhoon shelter" for advertising at Tung Chung Wharf does not violate the provisions of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law and will not cause consumers to misunderstand and confuse the enterprise. The lawsuit of Shanghai Typhoon Shelter Food Co., Ltd. lacks legal basis.

"Street View" dessert bar is a ready-to-drink takeaway shop. Adhering to the corporate culture and business philosophy of Shenyang Typhoon Shelter Teahouse Co., Ltd., and drawing lessons from successful operation experience and product production technology, we can produce professional, fast, delicious and healthy "street view" dessert drinks.

1998, Shanghai Typhoon Shelter Teahouse Co., Ltd. was established, which pioneered the operation mode of "unlimited fun and unlimited drinking" and quickly won the favor of many young people with its unique leisure way. Then, Shanghai typhoon shelter expanded rapidly by joining the chain, which was popular in large and medium-sized cities for a time.

As the first franchise store of Shanghai Typhoon Shelter outside Shanghai, Shenyang Typhoon Shelter appeared as the exclusive franchise agent for opening tea houses in three northeastern provinces and Inner Mongolia. However, with the further expansion of the operation, the contradiction between Shanghai typhoon shelter and Shenyang typhoon shelter is prominent.

In the second half of 2004, the two teahouses officially broke up. Li Yining led three typhoon shelter teahouses in Shenyang to quit the franchise chain, reapplied for the trademark and graphic trademark of Beijing typhoon shelter, and registered Shenyang typhoon shelter Teahouse Co., Ltd., so far, the two companies were divided into two ways, each fighting its own way and confronting the north and the south. At that time, they already had their own take-away brands-"Street Guest" and "Street View".
