What is the relationship between novelty and creativity of patent?

1. According to the relevant provisions of the patent law, novelty means that the invention or utility model does not belong to the existing technology; No unit or individual has filed an application with the Patent Office for the same invention or utility model before the filing date, and it is recorded in the patent application documents published or announced after the filing date (including the filing date). In spoken language, novelty means that the technical scheme for applying for a patent is a technical scheme for which the public cannot find a second identical technical scheme. Generally speaking, if an independent claim is novel, and the dependent claim further defines it, then the dependent claim is novel on the premise that it is novel.
