It depends on what patents are used, only patents are used, and there are a lot of useless patents, so we should pay attention to quality rather than quantity.
Because China's population base is the largest in the world, patent application can be an individual act, and everyone can apply for a patent, so it is not surprising that the number of patent applications ranks first in the world, and what is mentioned here is only the number of patent applications, not the amount of authorization, and a large part of patent applications cannot be passed, so the number of patent applications is nothing at first, and a patent power mainly depends on the quality of patents.
