【Explanation】 Since the occurrence of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, the patent issues of related drugs and treatment technologies have received considerable attention, and intellectual property rights have increasingly come into public view. What is intellectual property? How does it relate to our lives?

For example, if we wear a famous brand, a shirt, a pair of shoes, it must involve a trademark, this brand. Besides what we eat, like Wuchang rice, Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, our hometown of Rizhao green tea, these are all geographical indication products. There is also an aircraft that involves trademarks, but the core content of an aircraft has thousands of patents, or trade secrets, and even software, which is closely related to intellectual property rights.
【Explanation】 According to the survey and research statistics of the World Intellectual Property Organization, the patent literature records the latest invention information of more than 95% of human beings. This new coronary pneumonia epidemic also highlights the important role of intellectual property rights in encouraging and protecting the development of drugs and vaccines.

A very important function of the intellectual property system is the information function, which is the function of intelligence. Under the current severe epidemic situation, everyone is investing and researching and developing. We have to follow up with the latest research and development. What level of research and development have been achieved, what new drugs are there, even some equipment, and what other teams are doing? We can also see through the analysis of intellectual property rights. If we find a new entry point and find a direction, then we may make a breakthrough. The investment in R & D of pharmaceutical and medical equipment is very large, the cycle is very long, and the risk is also very high. Once its product comes out, (if) there is no protection, everyone can use it for free. You think about it, the innovator has only a dead end, right ? No one is going to innovate.
【Explanation】 Han Xiucheng said that in recent years, the social awareness of intellectual property rights has continued to increase, and the legal system of intellectual property rights has gradually been completed. And strengthening intellectual property protection is not only the need to fulfill international obligations, it can also promote the high-quality development of China's knowledge economy.

As far as I know, up to now, almost 200 countries and regions have implemented the intellectual property system. So in this context of globalization, we must abide by international rules. Everyone is talking about the 21st century as the era of knowledge economy. I think the most important point in the era of knowledge economy is the intellectual property economy. Intellectual property protection is the latest innovation and high technology. Only with strict protection for these innovations can the rights holder be compensated and paid for his interests and input. He was more active in creating and using, strengthening the layout, enhancing his competitiveness, and the core competitiveness of the country. The rapid development of the knowledge economy is the driving force.
【Explanation】 Han Xiucheng believes that strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights requires a concerted effort by multiple parties. It is not only necessary to create a good legal and policy environment, and to establish awareness of intellectual property protection for the public. At the same time, enterprises and scientific research units that are the mainstay of innovation must also understand the application of laws and regulations and have a comprehensive layout.

The next step is to be the main body of innovation and our company. How to really master this (intellectual property) system from a strategic and strategic level, improve your own innovation ability, protect your innovation achievements well The layout of domestic and foreign markets. Look at the patent, you ca n’t just apply for one or two. You must lay out the important technology related to this product, the core, important, and peripheral, to form a strong network, so that he (infringer) has no time to drill, impeccable.
