Blu ray LED inventor actually difficult to find a place in Japan

Japan's economy has long been devastated, the lack of competitiveness of enterprises is a big reason, including the number of patent applications from 2000 to reach the top of the decline. The crux of this situation is that the employees have a significant contribution to the invention of the office, but also symbolically get a little reward. After the amendment of the patent law, the situation will be worse.

Japan as early as 1921 promulgated the "patent law", the provisions of the patent belongs to the inventor. Today, nearly a century later, Japan is in the process of amending the bill, the company intends to belong to the inventor of the principle of invention belongs to the enterprise. This trend has caused great concern and heated debate in japan.

The reason why the matter will be so impressive, because a cause of concern at home and abroad in the patent dispute. Engaged in scientific research and development in Tokushima County, the original Nakamura Shuji Nichia company, in the last century, the early 90s developed a blu ray LED. The Tokyo district court case after the trial calculation, this method has the benefit of up to 120 billion yen (about 6 billion 288 million yuan), but what is the Tokushima County Nichia company pays the remuneration in the village? Many people listen to almost convulsions in the past: a mere 20 thousand yen (about RMB 1048.05), this money is not enough to go to a restaurant! In this village in 2001 with the company to court, asked to pay 20 billion yen. After repeated persuasion by the court, the final two sides to 840 million yen (about RMB 44 million 20 thousand) to reach a settlement". At the same time, the patent law also came to the news will be revised, the provisions of the remuneration of the inventor of the invention by the enterprise and the parties to determine the consultation.

But in the village, apparently unable to stay in the Nichia company. So he then go east to travel to the United States, engaged in the research, who now teaches at University of California-Santa Barbara, and in 2014 was awarded the Nobel prize in physics. This is the highest praise for scientific research achievements in the village, because its invention not only for the enterprise to get a huge income, but also through the application of related products, can greatly reduce the power consumption. On the occasion of the award, the village disclosed his feelings: the anger of the enterprise is the cause of efforts. If it is not holding a gas, it will not succeed. "At that time, he was frequently referred to as the" eat ", corporate executives meet plain white rice when he repeatedly humiliated him:" how not to resign? In making a major invention and disputes with the enterprise, there is no Japanese companies willing to accept him!

Similar to the experience in the village, in Japan is not alone. Normally, the enterprise scientific research personnel in a major invention and the patent transferred to enterprises, enterprises should give enough rewards. But in fact, Japan's corporate researchers have received very poor reward. The companies are also not What one says is plausible. enterprises to create and provide sufficient conditions for scientific research, researchers can not achieve a breakthrough on the research single-handed. Moreover, the company provides a stable environment for lifelong employment, which eliminates their worries. In addition, the invention is not only the result of individual efforts, but the crystallization of a team effort. The rewards of the main inventor, what about other people, the enthusiasm of the majority of people not to bruise?

Although the village where the enterprise won the favor, but the Japanese business community has produced a strong sense of crisis. They worry that, if not as soon as possible to change the relevant laws and regulations, it is difficult to ensure that such disputes happen frequently in the future, the enterprise will be pestered beyond endurance. So many companies plus such as such economic organizations continue to lobby Keidanren Japan government request to amend the "patent law". Andouble came to power after two, the strong impetus to the so-called "Andouble economics". But this policy mix to succeed, it must be strong support of the financial sector. As Andouble reciprocated, either to respond to the demands of the enterprise. So the Japanese government in June 2013 in the new introduction of the basic principles of intellectual property rights, made it clear that to promote the fundamental changes in the invention system".

Japan's economy has long been devastated, the lack of competitiveness of enterprises is a big reason, including the number of patent applications from 2000 to reach the top of the decline. The crux of this situation is that employees even if there is a major contribution to the invention of such a service, but also symbolically get a little reward, not enough to stimulate the enthusiasm of invention and creation. The enterprise produced by the invention of profit, are often "excess profits", the inventor should occupy a considerable proportion should be paid. Because, no matter how to cut the cake, are companies take big head. The greater the reward, the more significant the effect. Business concerns are clearly unnecessary. The United States can absorb the world of excellence, because rewards those with outstanding contribution to firm innovation. No innovation and breakthrough, enterprises take what to compete? 20 thousand yen actually get shot, this is really an international joke".

Japan's "patent law" has been implemented for nearly a century, there has not been any mechanism problems, indicating that there is no need to change. Review the history, Japan is able to catch up from a backward country, quickly among the powerful nations, play the role of the law should not be underestimated. In the village sued the Nichia Corporation, a senior U.S. patent experts think the Japanese patent system to promote the innovation of enterprise. Originally in the village case can play a much more positive effect, encouraging enterprises to innovative scientific research personnel, but the Japanese financial sector
