Why does China pay more and more attention to independent intellectual property rights now?

In recent years, China's scores in four special indicators, namely, innovation index, application index, protection index and environmental index, and the overall index of comprehensive development index have been rising. In recent years, we attach great importance to intellectual property enterprises, because we are in the era of knowledge economy and knowledge economy, and innovation is the lifeline of enterprise development. For enterprises, patents can bring tangible benefits. Among the international patent applications submitted through the Patent Cooperation Treaty in 20 17, Huawei ranked the top three in the world in terms of patent applications, of which R&D investment was as high as 89.7 billion yuan. Accordingly, Huawei's 20 17 net profit increased by 28. 1% year-on-year, and its global brand awareness increased to 86%.

The significance and importance of protecting intellectual property rights: it is conducive to mobilizing people's enthusiasm for scientific and technological research and literary and artistic creation. The intellectual property protection system is dedicated to protecting the intellectual achievements of right holders in the fields of science, technology and culture. Only by timely and comprehensively protecting the intellectual achievements and legitimate rights and interests of obligees can we mobilize people's creative enthusiasm and promote the optimal allocation of social resources. It can bring huge economic benefits to enterprises and enhance their economic strength. The particularity of intellectual property rights determines that enterprises can be invincible in the market only if they have independent intellectual property rights. More and more enterprises are beginning to realize the great role of intangible assets such as technology, brand and trade secrets. How to gradually improve the value of these intangible assets depends on the reasonable protection of intellectual property rights.

From the producer's point of view, the development of intellectual property rights in turn laid the foundation for China's long-term economic development. According to the announcement issued by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in Geneva, in 20 15, China ranked third in the number of patent applications in the world, second only to the United States and Japan. Take ZTE, the third-ranked China company, as an example. This is ZTE's top three for six consecutive years. According to the time, 2009 is the time when intellectual property rights gradually began to develop in China. Intellectual property rights are very important for enterprises. Owning own patented technology can not only improve the core competitiveness of enterprises, but also wait for financing. In March, 20021,ZTE signed a 4G patent license agreement with Spanish communication equipment manufacturers.

Protecting intellectual property rights is conducive to promoting foreign trade and introducing foreign capital. China joined the World Trade Organization on 200 1 12 1, and implemented the Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights to protect the intellectual property rights of natural persons, legal persons or other organizations at home and abroad. Without the protection of intellectual property rights, China cannot participate in world trade activities. Intellectual property rights are valued by the state and the international community.
