Third, we should improve work mechanisms and strengthen internal and external coordination and linkage to form a combined force. We should give full play to the role of supervision and guidance of second instance, unify judicial standards, strengthen communication and coordination with competent departments of the free trade zone and the CIIE as well as the administrative departments of industry and commerce, and copyright, etc. to form a coordination mechanism that protects intellectual property. Fourth, we should focus on special investigation and strengthen forward-looking research of difficult problems and experience summary. We should carefully analyze, study and summarize the new situations and problems arising from the trials concerning the free trade zone and the CIIE, and build the awareness of quality, in an attempt to create judicial protection experience that can be replicated and promoted. Fifth, we should increase publicity to give play to the regulatory and guidance role of justice and tell the stories of Shanghai about the judicial protection of intellectual property.
