China Tackles Problems of Pirated Goods
The International Chamber of Commerce predicts the global value of counterfeit and pirated goods could this year reach $1.77 trillion and put 2.5 million legitimate jobs at risk. While a study from the Office for Harmonisation in the Internal Market (OHIM) shows that in the European Union alone piracy causes lost revenues of more than $26 billion.
China is making increasing attempts to tackle pirated goods production. In 2014 its administrative authorities handled 67,500 trade mark infringement cases with a value of 100 million renminbi (10.3 million pounds), destroyed 1,007 infringing sites and transferred 355 criminal cases to the prosecutors. And the Trademark Office, and Trademark Review and Adjudication Board together decided 2,800 cases against bad faith trade mark filings.
A new trade mark law, which came into force in May 2014, introduced more severe punishments for repeated infringements and raised the amount of fines from 500,000 RMB (51,501 pounds) to 3 million (300,000 pounds).
Earlier this year, Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, which is facing legal action over allegations it has turned a blind eye to the sale of pirated goods on its websites, ramped up protection for foreign brands.

答案
Say No to Pirated Products Given lost revenues caused by piracy, attempts have been made in China to cope with pirated goods: A new trade mark law has executed more severe punishments on counterfeit; Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba follows this trend and protects foreign brands on its websites from being pirated. From my perspective, piracy has caused a great loss to legitimate producers, inventors and authors in many ways and thus should be prohibited. To start with, pirated products often cost much less than the original ones, so they enjoy unbeatable advantage in price in spite of their relatively poor quality. The original ones, therefore, sell badly. Besides, piracy may ruin inventors’ or authors’ reputation. As far as pirated books are concerned, they do great harm to the authors’ reputation due to their misprints. Finally, pirated products may also have a negative impact on customers since those legitimate producers’ enthusiasm may be greatly hurt by the fact that some customers are more inclined to purchase pirated products. In the long run, there will be fewer provisions of excellent products. To conclude, piracy has a bad influence not only on the legitimate producers but also on the consumers. And therefore, it’s high time that the government called on everyone to start the battle against piracy. What’s more, as customers, we should increase our consciousness to resist pirated products. Only in this way can we create a healthy environment for both customers and producers.
