National Patent Office.
In the deputy director's office, Yang Qiliang was sitting upright in his seat, flipping through some patent review application materials that were just delivered yesterday.
my country's patent examination system was gradually established in the early 1980s. After 30 years of development, a complete patent examination system comparable to that of some developed countries has been initially established.
The entire process includes preliminary examination, substantive examination, PCT examination, PPH examination, etc., and for some patent applications involving major economic interests, there will be special channels to speed up and give priority to examination.
As the deputy director, Yang Qiliang's main daily job is to lead his staff to find out among the countless submitted patent applications that can be involved in the transformation of the national economic model, which involves priority development and key development. Patent applications related to technical fields or technical topics, including new materials, medicines, electrical appliances, and communication technologies.
For these important technological achievements in high-tech fields, the State Patent Office will support and promote them with a specific review system.
To put it bluntly, the country is optimistic about you and will do its best to help you. As long as you confirm that you are not cheating at the first time, it will give legal and reasonable protection.
The applications that Yang Qiliang looked at were all the ones that the staff at the bottom thought were valuable but could not be judged after screening in advance, and they were finally brought together to him for him to review and make up his mind.
Starting from working in the morning, after reading it for more than two hours, Yang Qiliang put down a patent application for a new material, and couldn't help rubbing the space between his brows with his hands.
Over the years, he has gradually felt that he is getting older, and his work intensity can no longer be the same as when he was young, working continuously from morning to night, without needing to rest at all.
Closing his eyes, he recalled the content of the materials he had read just now. Yang Qiliang was also a little uncertain, so after thinking for a while, he opened his eyes and picked up the phone to the Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering of Xia Guo Academy of Sciences. Made a phone call.
After briefly explaining the situation, Yang Qiliang and the research institute quickly made an agreement to send the relevant materials of the patent application to them, let them follow up the review part, and then come up with the results as soon as possible.
This is a daily process that must be followed. Many professional reviews must be conducted by professionals. The nature of Yang Qiliang's work determines that he has a very close cooperative relationship with Xia Guo Academy of Sciences.
After resting for a while, Yang Qiliang put aside the new material patent application just now, and picked up the document below to look at it.
These materials were submitted by the staff below, similar to a briefing, which roughly explained the content of this patent application, so that Yang Qiliang could understand it as soon as possible.
"Huh? Rice?"
Yang Qiliang glanced at the head of this document and felt a little surprised.
Although agricultural innovation is also the focus of the country's attention, there are many patented technologies that have been released in recent years, but almost none of them can really make the patent office go through a special review process.
Now that such a copy comes out, it means that the people below think it is valuable, but they can't make up their minds, so they send it to him.
"What kind of technology is this? Huh? Seedling cultivation?"
Yang Qiliang looked at the information in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he was. From the content inside, he slowly portrayed the technical outline of this patent application bit by bit.
"Lodging resistance, drought resistance, cold resistance, higher grain size, more grains per bran..."
The more Yang Qiliang looked at it, the more he frowned. If it was true as stated in this document, is this rice still rice? It is simply a fetish.
In the ordinary land of fish and rice, it may not be able to compare with those excellent rice varieties, because its performance can only be regarded as good.
But with its advantages in some characteristics, if it is placed in a place with a relatively harsh environment, its performance will be amazing, and it will absolutely crush all other varieties.
The question is... do such rice varieties really exist
Wouldn't it be fraudulent
Yang Qiliang has worked in the patent office for most of his life. When he encountered this kind of patent information like reading from heaven, his first reaction was not to be happy or excited, but to silently put a question mark in his heart, trying to find out what the moisture in it was. How much, or whether it is directly false.
This patent application is indeed confusing.
Yang Qiliang silently affirmed the work of the staff below, and at the same time looked at the information in the column of patent applicants.
"Huh? Muya Research Institute?"
Yang Qiliang only took one look to confirm that he had never heard of this name.
This should be a small research institution, or a new research institution.
Because for large research institutions, their technological achievements have a history, and they can see clearly the context of research and development, and rarely come out of nowhere, especially such a major achievement as this patent application.
so-
Chances are it's fake.
Yang Qiliang couldn't help shaking his head.
However, after pondering for a while, he still put his hand on the phone and dialed it.
After a while, the phone was connected.
"Hello, is this old man Yuan?"
Yang Qiliang's tone was respectful and polite, and his body straightened up again.
On the other end of the phone, an old voice came: "Xiao Yang, what can I do for you?"
Yang Qiliang quickly asked: "Old Yuan, how are you doing recently? It's been a long time since I called you..."
Before Yang Qiliang could finish speaking, the old man on the other end of the phone had already said: "To make a long story short, I still have something to do."
Still this temper...
Yang Qiliang smiled silently, and then explained the content of the rice patent he had just seen, and then asked: "Mr. Yuan, I don't know much about this aspect, so I can't make up my mind. I hope you can help review it."
After the old man finished listening, he was also a little puzzled in his tone. "Is this true? Are you sure there is no problem?"
Yang Qiliang touched his nose, and said a little embarrassedly: "I don't know too well... Well, that's why I said I wanted to ask you for help."
The old man was silent for a while, and then said: "Okay, take it here and give it to Wang Zhizhong, and I will let him do this for you."
Yang Qiliang was overjoyed: "Then thank you, Mr. Yuan."
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll hang up."
The old man muttered a little: "In the future, you can directly contact Wang Zhizhong for such matters, and you don't need to call me."
"Come on, you always pay attention to your health, goodbye."
"beep..."
The other end of the phone hung up very quickly.
Yang Qiliang put down the phone, read the patent application materials of the rice again, then got up, and decided to send the things to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences immediately.
As the deputy director of the National Patent Office, he certainly knew the importance of this patent.
If its contents are all true, then this will be a subversive high-tech that will bring immeasurable benefits to the country and the people.
In the Xia Kingdom, the desert area accounts for 13% of the entire land area, most of which are concentrated in the western region. This is also the main reason why the economic development of the western region of our country is seriously behind.
Although this new rice variety is not directly planted in the desert, it would be perfect if it can be planted under the newly treated land while controlling desertification, so that farmers can increase their production and income. The country absolutely must promote it in an all-round way, and we are happy to see it succeed.
