Article 2 of the Regulations on the Implementation of the Copyright Law stipulates: "Works referred to in the Copyright Law refer to intellectual achievements that are original in the fields of literature, art and science and can be reproduced in some tangible form."

The elements of a work generally include three aspects: conception, expression and originality. Originality means that a work is created independently by the author rather than imitating or copying other people's works, which is mainly reflected in the author's selection, material selection, design or combination of related materials.

If the advertising language only describes the performance and characteristics of products or services without originality, it is impossible to seek protection according to works.
