Does it matter if you consider withdrawing one patent and then applying for another?

It didn't work. According to the provisions of the Patent Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), before the publication of a patent for invention, if the application fee has not been paid or the preliminary examination has not been answered, it shall be deemed as withdrawn, and the application may be resubmitted without being affected. Patent literally refers to exclusive rights and interests, which means open letters or open documents. It is a certificate used by medieval monarchs to issue certain privileges, and later refers to the exclusive rights certificate signed by the British king himself.
