Mechanical and electrical products in China why frequency was "337 investigation"

After China joined the WTO10 years, the United States of America 's "337 investigation" increase rapidly. As of 2010, to Chinese enterprise"337 investigation" case has as many as 109, and relates to Chinese enterprise"337 investigation" accounted for the proportion of the total global survey has been maintained at1/4 ~1/3 strong high. While being in the investigated products, machinery and electronic products is the largest involving, over the past 10 years basically maintained at around 2/3,2010mechanical and electrical products in the proportion is rising to 95%. Can say even, the United States of China"337 investigation" is mainly for mechanical and electrical products launched, China mechanical and electrical products has become the United States of America"337 investigation", "heavy disaster area". Mechanical and electrical products are often by"337investigation"? It reflects what's the problem?

Upgrade of Chinese economic structure

China mechanical and electrical products face"337 investigation" is accompanied by China's economic structure upgrade the emergence of a phenomenon. After the reform and opening up, China to undertake and develop a large number of labor-intensive industries processing industry. The early China's labor-intensive export products are mainly involved in the traditional textile, clothing, furniture, plastic products, while also involved in mechanical and electrical and other high-tech industries, but is mainly home appliances and consumer electronics labor processing trade in the United States, basically be eliminated or gradually shift the low-end industries and production processes. So I lose beauty products to the United States Constitution instead of domestic products more competitive, but makes up for their needs. Therefore, the United States of America on Chinese products less restrictions, even as China's exports to America 's large increase, the United States has taken many measures, but as a result of these products with low technological content, mainly the use of anti-dumping and safeguard measures and other means to stop imports of Chinese products.

Nearly 10 come for years, our country export product structure gets optimizing, Sino-US economic competition domain expands ceaselessly, to mechanical and electrical products as the representative of China's technology-intensive and high value-added products of US-bound volume increases rapidly, and the export of electromechanical products in China began to automatic data processing equipment, communications equipment, ship and parts, aerospace equipment and other high-end areas. In the face of anti-dumping and other traditional methods can not effectively curb our know-how and high technical content of mechanical and electrical products export to the United States this one condition, the main intellectual property rights as the clamp means "337 investigation " began to be used frequently.

The enterprise weak awareness of intellectual property rights of Chinese mechanical and electrical products face"337 investigation" to a certain extent, is also our country enterprise weak awareness of intellectual property rights deriving results. Our country enterprise knowledge property rights consciousness is mainly reflected in 3 aspects:

One of the intellectual property rights do not respect, individual enterprises blindly copying others products, its products in the process of "going out" it is easy for others to grasp the handle and make China all similar products are under attack. Two is not pay attention to the protection of their own intellectual property rights, many companies ignore its own intellectual property strategy and intellectual property management, leading to his patent invention abroad be registered. Some enterprises even appeared in the renewal period and period of grace does not apply because the exclusive right to use a trademark loss situation, to export products to bring unnecessary risks. Three in the wake of investigation should appeal to not actively, many enterprises have chosen to negative backoff, which the direct consequence is automatically lost, another adverse consequences was to lose the chance to appeal to more serious consequences, is fed by some foreign enterprises frequently sued the Chinese enterprise arrogance, even lead to be rather baffling China Company is involved in " the 337survey".

The United States trade intensified warfare

China mechanical and electrical products face"337 investigation" also reflects the United States trade war upgrade. With the WTO rules are strict with each passing day, the traditional non-tariff barriers are gradually reduced, but on the other hand, the developed countries gradually through the implementation of technical barriers to trade and trade protection. Although in recent years, developing countries also began to use the technical barriers to trade, but has a higher economic and technical level, the developed countries in the implementation of technical trade barrier on still occupy the leading position, and gradually upgrade. Many technical barriers to trade to intellectual property rights for the support or directly to the intellectual property rights to build technical barriers to the United States, "337 investigation" is a typical example of. After the international financial crisis, the United States domestic economic difficulties, trade protectionism aggravate, the United States is to increase "337investigation" the strength and frequency of use.

In order to cope with the mechanical and electrical products by the United States "337 investigation ", from the aspects of government, to perfect the protection system of intellectual property and intellectual property strategy, speed up the training of intellectual property talent, encourage enterprises to independent innovation; from the enterprise, to enhance the "337 investigation " understanding, knowledge property retrieval task, to avoid violations the intellectual property of others, to strengthen their own intellectual property rights protection, have encountered disputes, to actively responding to, improve the337investigation of the respondent ability; from the industry level, should actively make use of its advantages, give full play to the role of organization and coordination, the entire industry and even other foreign respondent common coping, mobilize all possible resources and power, for responding to the maximum effect.
