Trade Fair Site, "Daily News" reporter hat Garment Co., Ltd. in
Zhejiang Sheng Hung found the small hall, a variety of international
brands of down jackets are on display shelves. Italian press picked up a
brand HenryCotton's down jacket, Sheng Hung, a clothing salesman told
reporters, "this style are very good sales in the world," but down the
fabric and have adopted a more high-end materials, prices tend to make
customers stay away."There is such a customer hat fancy style,
we can change the fabric and the design of some of the details, so not
very expensive price." The salesman told us that they have a large
number of companies from Italy and other countries, well-known brands
orders, each of these brand new style design is to attract other foreign
or domestic sales of its customer's chips."In the past, because
we eat a lot of loss of intellectual property." Vacuum vessel Zhejiang
Hals International Trade Co., Ltd. Sales Director Asia, silver partner
Chen told reporters, "In the beginning when the main learning process,
such as the appearance of design, more or less the old product to
produce a number of (intellectual property) issues. especially the
export to Japan, as long as the other party applied for a patent in
Japan, similar to our products can not be exported to there again. "
A
similar situation is not uncommon in the Chinese hat manufacturing.
Shanghai Pan-Pacific law firm Chun-Quan Liu said that China's foreign
trade mostly to manufacturing companies, the phenomenon of infringement
of intellectual property rights of foreign products more. "China has
been a hat enterprises are mainly OEM for others, the foreign company to
do R & D and marketing, production and some do not, so the
phenomenon of infringement of intellectual property aspects of major
Chinese enterprises are more."
Import and Export Co., Ltd. Ningbo
broad hat Lin, general manager of Air China about their experiences.
"We need to always pay attention to intellectual property rights to
protect our customers, win more business this is our important
prerequisite for long-term cooperation. If there is a violation of their
intellectual property rights, our order will face a major loss." Lam
where enterprises are mainly in accordance with the requirements of
foreign customers, manufacturing products, mainly for paper stationery
and gifts, it is easy to produce Red Bull Hats intellectual property rights of friction, so the company must be extremely cautious.
Even
though some companies have their own patents, for intellectual property
protection also appeared to be inadequate. "Many of our products have
patents," a production of Buckles manufacturers told reporters, "but the
buttons around the production of at least hundreds of companies,
hundreds have come to imitate you, you want to protect can not protect."
The manufacturers said that they sometimes should customer
requirements, independent research and development of new hat styles or
design, but only to ensure that before the arrival of customers will not
be copied. Once the customer which new products are used in products to
the market, its also not "patent" to speak of.
"We have a
ceramic pot suitable for induction cooker is indeed a national patent."
Jingdezhen Porcelain Co., Ltd. general manager Fan Qihua Po still has
his worries, "But now we have a patent imitation products out there the
same in the market. "In his view, the label of domestic patent
protection is not enough, it took legal action human, financial and
other aspects of cost too much time on their businesses of this size is
not worth much.
In response, Chun-Quan Liu pointed out that in
recent years there have been some of the traditional big companies
overseas Chinese enterprises intellectual property right infringement.
"With the importance of intellectual property rights in China, such as
China's patent applications increased year by year, slowly in some areas
of technology in their relatively strong patent, which is what we
expect. But I think the Chinese intellectual property system was
introduced more than a decade, are just the initial stage, does not
count as a real attention, attention can only be called a start. many
companies at a disadvantage in this respect, began to put into this
talent, but still need to wait for some time output . "
Dean,
School of Shanghai University Intellectual Property Tao Xinliang further
recommended that economic activity in the globalization trend of
internationalization of intellectual property rules, the international
trade in the forward forward. "Therefore, foreign trade enterprises in
import and export activities, at home and abroad in commercial
transactions, intellectual property rights to the string tension. The
one hand, do not infringe the intellectual property of others, on the
other hand do not let their own intellectual property by others
violations. "
A long way branding
Repeatedly touched on intellectual property behind the red line, is the corporate brand "not confident."
In
hats, scarves, gloves and other clothing import and export trade,
import and export of happiness, general manager of Ningbo, said Chen Xu,
who has also been aware of the problem. Compared with the top brands,
such as the LV has its own well-known logo, although the domestic
companies are doing similar things, but the lack of competitive brands,
creating a brand is not easy.
In his view, do have a guarantee of
quality brand first, then have their own characteristics. "Although our
company has its own brand label, but the domestic brands in foreign
countries is difficult to be recognized, so basically dominated by OEM
production for other people to do after the wedding dress."
Hang
Lin also said that if the use of design patents to protect, cost or
partial expensive. Therefore, they present to sample or in OEM
production of the main ODM supplemented by their own design. "Although
some customers will choose our design, but this is still relatively
small, the process is still quite long. According to Lin Airlines
introduced to their company, for example, the current products on the
market in China or in the company's own brands, in the designs and
patents will ensure that investment. The show is also a major exhibition
designed their own products.
Air Lin Chen Xu agree saying, "DC Hats
brand building, market acceptance necessary for a long process;
Secondly, foreign companies have a very strong sense of self-protection,
would rather not sign do not have our brand, do not want to be
controlled by others . "
However, the growing domestic cap
companies or from independent brands and its own intellectual property
to benefit a lot. "Later, as the business develops, we learn from
experience, began to gradually develop their own design. Now
encountering similar problems less and less." Chen Xu said.
March 2, the 21th East China Fair into the next day. With the first day of the deserted scene slightly different, the hall began to appear a lot of luggage and coming and going of foreign investment.
For
a long time, and "Made in China" label accompanying intellectual
property issues, has become a sensitive nerve. Although it is a "world
factory", but really belongs to Chinese enterprises and is recognized by
the international market, intellectual property, but rare. Enterprises
in their efforts to develop their own patents, but also had to
repeatedly touch the intellectual property of others facing the
embarrassment of the red line.
"No,
no, I just follow our company's design factory to produce clothes on the
line." AlhazShiliwala businessmen from the United States told reporters
that Chinese and their new era caps
companies lower the price of production factories in China, but does
not plan to buy independent research and design in China products.
