After the Chinese traditional Spring Festival, Zhuzhou Intellectual Property Office of Hunan province joined efforts with Shifeng district government to conduct patent enforcement in key commodity distribution areas. They randomly checked stores around Xiangshi Square and Wanbolong building material market to see if patented marks were abused or counterfeited and educated business operators on patent knowledge.

The move of the office incorporating intellectual property education into daily enforcement activities helped safeguard sound market order and increase public awareness.
