Recently, the China National Intellectual Property Administration issued the decision of the 24th China Patent Award, and Shenzhen won another good performance, winning 98 China Patent Awards, accounting for 10.47% of the total awards in China. The number of gold awards won in Shenzhen this year has reached the highest level in recent years, with 3 gold awards and 2 appearance design gold awards.
On August 6, 2023, Shenzhen TV's "Evening Report" program conducted a news report on "Today's Viewpoint: What is the winning password for Shenzhen to win 98 Chinese Patent Awards?" Shenzhen TV invited Zhang Wenwen, Executive Vice President of the Shenzhen Patent Association and Chairman of Zhongyi Intellectual Property, to provide online interpretation of relevant issues.
Host Li Jian: Hello Chairman Zhang, what progress has Shenzhen made in the field of patents demonstrated by its award-winning performance this time?
Zhang Wenwen: The competition among enterprises has entered a white heat, and whether domestically or internationally, the most powerful weapon is patents. If you protect your intellectual property rights well, your product price will naturally be high, and your market share will also be high. Then, you will gain more economic benefits in this market, and this competitiveness will become stronger and stronger.
The China Patent Award is one of the highest awards in our country's patents, and it is the only national level award with a very high value. Over the years, Shenzhen has been a city with a relatively high number of Chinese patent gold awards, which is related to our solid work in patent and intellectual property work in Shenzhen; In addition, we have many enterprises in Shenzhen, represented by Huawei, Tencent, and BYD. In this regard, we have done a good job. There are many enterprises like DJI that have shown better performance in recent years, and many innovations have been at the forefront of our country and even the world.
So, our Shenzhen has received a relatively large number of patent gold awards, which also indicates that our innovation ability in Shenzhen is relatively strong.
Host Li Jian: So what trends can you see from the industry distribution of the 3 Chinese patent gold awards and 2 Chinese appearance design gold awards that Shenzhen has won this time?
Zhang Wenwen: Shenzhen has basically won the patent gold medal in industries such as communication, medicine, and medical devices. This has been the case over the years. From the perspective of appearance design awards, in recent years, with the changes in people's lives, people have paid more attention to the beauty and design of these products, and enterprises have also done a lot in this area, At the same time, in terms of industrial design, Shenzhen is indeed quite leading in China.
Host Li Jian: President Zhang, from the perspective of the advantages and status of leading enterprises in the industry that have won awards in Shenzhen this year, what are the changes compared to previous years? How do you interpret it?
Zhang Wenwen: Personally, I believe that no matter how changes occur, enterprise innovation can bring competitiveness to the enterprise. Only by investing more in innovation, generating more good technologies, and providing good intellectual property protection for your innovation can you achieve good results in the market. This ensures that the enterprise is in a leading position. Many enterprises in Shenzhen have been adhering to this idea and investing more in innovation, Invest in cutting-edge innovation.
Host Li Jian: Currently, the development of Shenzhen's 20+8 industrial cluster is advancing in depth. In your opinion, how do we inject innovation momentum into the creation and application of patents?
Zhang Wenwen: Enterprises have invested a large amount of funds in research and development. If this research and development is not effectively protected, the enterprise will lose its enthusiasm for research and development investment, which is a hindrance to social research and development. Therefore, strengthening intellectual property protection is an incentive for our innovation. In the future, we need to pay more attention to this type of intellectual property protection, as long as our intellectual property protection environment is done well, Our company will have a passion for R&D investment, which will generate more good technologies, thereby achieving domestically leading and internationally leading results.
The report also stated that Shenzhen has made many innovative efforts in creating a "strict protection and fast protection" intellectual property protection environment and an innovative development environment. The remarkable achievements come from Shenzhen's adherence to innovation as the leading strategy for urban development for many years, exploring six "90%" innovation and intellectual property passwords, namely:

Zhongyi will continue to shine in the field of high-end intellectual property services and contribute to the development of the industry!
