In the era of "great protection" of intellectual property rights, beware of pirate robbery!

On the morning of April 9, the 2016 China IPR Protection High-Level Forum on the theme of “Protecting Intellectual Property Rights and Promoting Entrepreneurial Innovation” was held in Beijing.

During the 'Twelfth Five-Year Plan' period, the national intellectual property system investigated and dealt with 87,000 cases of patent infringement cases, nearly 10 times that of the '11th Five-Year Plan' period.” Shen Changyu, director of the State Intellectual Property Office of China, mentioned at the meeting.

During the meeting, the State Intellectual Property Office also proposed the guidelines for “great protection” for the first time, and also indicated the determination to continuously strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights in China.

Recently, involving the intellectual property protection of the LED industry, the recent controversy is endless. In the past, Nichia and Everlight were invincible for white LED patents. Later, Seoul Semiconductor and Japanese lens manufacturer Enplas had a dispute over patent litigation for LED TV backlights. In addition, the UK and Taiwan are also patenting graphene LED lighting. Pick up the shelf.

Lenovo reported in October last year, a "16 Zhongshan Lighting Factory defendant infringement" news, although confirmed by the media and manufacturers in many ways, this is only a "patent pirate" for lighting companies robbery, but the event occurred It also reveals the current state of lack of intellectual property protection in China.

"In the lighting industry, the patent pirate's customary method is to first register a shell company, send a special person to the domestic and foreign lighting market inspection, apply for design patents for the popular lamp shape on the market, and then reward the lighting company for this claim. Lee." Industry insiders revealed.

Indeed, in the ancient town of Zhongshan, the lamps and lanterns are rich in style and style, which is fascinating, but the lack of intellectual property awareness has also made the "Li Gui" in the industry happy, and more "patent pirates" can provide Machine.

"Our people who do lighting fixtures know that many companies in the industry who insist on originality have more or less similar troubles. The new products that have been developed with great effort and effort have not been displayed for more than a week. All kinds of imitations have spread everywhere and spread. The wide range also makes you nowhere to check.” Li Quan, manager of Sanxiong Aurora Brand Management Center, said that the next step is also to hope that the state can introduce relevant policies to protect it.

For the filament lamp that is now hot in the market, Sichuan Baishi Optoelectronics has become a company that has joined the filament lamp patent rights defense camp after the domestic Ruidisheng and Taiwan Jingyuan. Based on the filament lamp, Baishi Optoelectronics also successfully set off the patent banner of local enterprises in overseas markets.

“The filament lamp market is hot, and the extended patent mines need to be careful. Patents and certifications are becoming a prerequisite for business promotion. This shows that intellectual property rights are playing an increasingly important role in today’s international trade. It shows the fact that the domestic LED manufacturing industry is rising rapidly.” Wang Peng, general manager of Baishi Optoelectronics, said.

Gaogong LED believes that China does not lack originality nowadays, and lacks respect for originality. The "Li Gui" and "patent pirate" rampages have already disrupted the healthy development of the entire lighting industry, and for those who infringe or exploit legal loopholes. What is necessary for illegal activities is a long-lasting battle of multi-party cooperation. I hope that all people of insight in the LED industry can stand up and share with them to create a beautiful environment for LEDs!
