En accédant au marché de la Chine, beaucoup de compagnies multinationales supposent qu'un pays avec une population aussi grande que la Chine n'aurait pas une pénurie de la main-d'oeuvre.

As such, based on these numbers alone, the opportunity, occurrences, and profitability of IP infringement in China is steadily on the rise.

According to recent postings by the United States Embassy in Beijing, China is the number one source of counterfeit goods seized by U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. However, targets of IP piracy and infringement are not just U.S. or foreign companies, but also Chinese companies. For example, on a recent visit to street corner in Shanghai, DVDs of movies currently playing in theaters worldwide were available for 4 yuan (about 53 cents, U.S.). With some haggling, volume purchase discounts appeared possible. Bootleg DVDs included recently released American films such as “Transformers” and “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer,” as well as many popular, recent Hong Kong movies. Since the main market for Read the rest of “Recent Developments and Routes for Enforcing Intellectual Property Rights in China” or post a comment
