I wrote a book to be published. How can I apply for intellectual property rights, that is, the kind of patents people say?

The copyright of what you write will naturally exist ~ you don't need to apply for it specially ~ ~ Just put your name on the work ~ ~ ~

Intellectual property includes three parts, copyright, trademark right and patent right ~~~ ~ That is to say, copyright and patent right are equivalent ~ ~ So the work does not need to apply for protection in a special department ~ ~
