Intellectual Property (IP) in China

26TH April 2015 was the World Intellectual Property Day with a theme of “Get up, stand up for music”. In any streets of China, however, you can buy any latest Hollywood blockbuster DVDs from vendors in less than 10 yuan and download any music you want free of charge from the Internet. Though these days Chinese attach great importance to the Intellectural Property Right (IPR) and the IP’s environment has been generally improved, there are still some worsening problems in the field.
