NEC Awarded 1.15 Million CNY in Beijing
2009-01-12
NEC registered its trademark in China in 1979. In 2006, Zhuhai Administration for Industry and
Commerce imposed administrative sanctions on Zhuhai Yuehua Electronic and Yuehua Technology,
confiscated and destroyed a large number of counterfeit NEC keyboards. Then, NEC brought a
lawsuit against Zhuhai Yuehua Electronic, Yuehua Technology, Shenzhen JEEJA Electronic and
Century Yuehua for serious quality defects of the counterfeit keyboards causing damages to its
reputation and claimed for stopping infringement and compensating damages.
The Beijing No.1 Intermediate People's Court entered the first instance decision for the
infringement of NEC trademark and unfair competition, ordering defendants Zhuhai Yuehua
Electronic, Yuehua Technology and Shenzhen JEEJA Electronic to cease manufacture and sales of
infringing products and defendant Beijing Century Yuehua to cease sales of infringing
products. The four defendants shall also compensate damages of 1.15 million CNY.
