While America’s leaders worry about how to curb China’s increasing influence in currency, inflation, and trade issues, they are in danger of overlooking an even larger threat—one that could make those debates pointless: China is expected to surpass the U.S. in patent filings this year.
China’s National Patent Development Strategy lays out aggressive targets—a doubling of the number of patent examiners to 9,000 and 2 million patents by 2015. This includes both invention patents and utility patents, which cover engineering features. An increase in these utility patents may be even more worrisome.
China is focusing its intellectual attention in the right places, industries like sustainable power and new automobile technologies. It already operates the world’s fastest supercomputer and it leagues ahead of the U.S. in high-speed rail development and many forms of alternative energy.
China has made a commitment not only to new ideas, but fast-tracking their ownership. With the country mandating that products not only be sold in China but formed and engineered there, winning the trade war will be difficult.
New ideas are essential because 21st century trade will not be defined by who makes what, but who makes things better. And while the U.S. stalls, China moves ahead. Take American jet maker Boeing(BA), for example. Boeing has again announced a delay of its 787 Dreamliner. At the same time, China announced a joint-venture agreement with General Electric(GE)giving it access to sophisticated airplane technology, including some of the same components used in Boeing’s Dreamliner. The U.S. must be smarter and tougher to succeed.
New inventions and innovations will count for nothing if the intellectual property behind these ideas can be copied and mass-produced. China aims to invest in the development of new technology while turning a blind eye to intellectual-property theft. The U.S., which spends over twice as much on litigation as it does on research, needs to do more to get tough on these copycats. As the No. 1 economy, the U.S. must pressure China to rein in patent abuses and expand trade.
China is listening. Recognizing it has a place as a global superpower, it’s vowed not to use pirated software in any government offices. Acknowledging the problem is a start, but by no means the end.
Ultimately, it may be in China’s interest to relax trade restrictions and open up the market to American imports. The U.S. has signaled that a more conciliatory trade policy is a possibility, but only if China opens up its own market to American products. A little competition will go a long way toward driving new ideas for both countries. The U.S. has shown itself to be an invention hub: entrepreneurial, risk-taking, and hands-on. If the U.S. cannot remain intellectually competitive, a few inflationary percentage points will be the least of the country’s problems.
According to the text, we can learn that Chinese patent filings______.
选项
A、are not 100 percent home-conceptualized
B、mainly take place in sustainable power and car technologies
C、could arouse American government’s fearfulness and agitation
D、are expected to excel US in number and quality
答案
A
解析
属细节题。选项B主观臆断,文章第三段只是说中国选对了对知识产权的关注重点,如可持续能源和新型汽车技术等行业,并没有说中国的专利申请大多数发生在这些行业,故选项B错误。选项C偷换概念,引起美国忧虑已经是客观事实,而并不是未知的主观推断,故选项C错误。选项D偷加了关键词“quality”,原文并无此表述,故选项D错误。虽然文章之前一直在讲中国在创新和专利申请上所取得的成绩,但是后来也提到了知识产权的侵权事件,故能够推测中国的专利申请不一定都是百分百原创的,故选项A正确。
