On 21 april, the zhejiang city public security bureau held a press conference on the protection of intellectual property rights in the city's public security organs on the innovative mechanisms and outcomes of the series of high-quality developments in the protection culture of the “new three” (web sites, dramas, internet tours)。
Press conference live. Ga xing's public security plan
In the past year, the public security organs of the city of kashing have investigated nine criminal cases in the area of cultural “new ones”, arrested 61 suspects, closed down 213 pirated websites, apps and minor procedures, and eliminated 11 criminal gangs。
In the case of web briefs, which are an important source of microtrip ips as an emerging practice in online literature, new piracy uses technology to steal content in bulk, seriously discouraging originality。
In november 2025, the gachin city public security bureau, through its opening office, received reports from businesses in the district that their original texts had been stolen and sold on a large scale. The police immediately set up a special unit to gather the network across several provinces from january to february 2026, which resulted in the arrest of seven suspects in the amount of more than $2 million。
Suspect mao and others have been found to have illegally collected short texts from various platforms and have built their own pirated websites to sell cards for profit at a low price; another group, lee and others, have partnered to develop abuse software, develop agents and form a complete black and grey industry chain. This case became the first case of an attack by the zhejiang chain on the right to write online。
In recent years, china's “new three” culture has broken down geographical and cultural barriers at a visible rate and gained wide recognition on the global stage. On the occasion of the new wave of online video shows, gachin public security also handed over the guardian responses。
In august 2025, a video app, promoted at an overseas application store, illegally disseminated a short-time television show entitled by copyright from a media and cultural company in kaing. The public security organs at the ka xing and ping lake levels have organized over 60 police personnel, in four waves, across the province, and have captured 10 suspects and seized 10 crime sites. A black industrial chain of cross-border infringement, developed by software, video decryption and advertising, was completely cut off。
In the area of online games, in january 2026, the public security department of the city of liguang carried out a unified network operation in four provinces outside zhejiang province, destroying four workshops and arresting 12 suspects. Since 2022, suspects such as jiang yao and zhao yai have seriously violated the copyright rights of one of the country's well-known games companies by breaking up the game platform to protect technology and selling it through more than 10 internet shops for over 10 million yuan。
Behind these successive cases is the turn of the kashing public security from “one-point strike” to “systemic governance”. In the face of new trends in the technicalization and cross-borderization of tort offences, a combination of “professional fight + smart warning + multi-dimensional governance” is playing an active role。
For example, on the basis of artificial intelligence and big data, gachin public security has built an early warning platform on copyright risks to automate the whole process of “monitoring-capturing-disposal-disposal-receiving”. Once the content of the violations is monitored, the platform automatically alerts and captures the clues of the violations and effectively solves the problem of cross-border violations that are “unseeable, untraceable and unmanageable”。
“protecting intellectual property is protecting innovation.” the relevant head of the gachin city public security bureau stated that the city's public security organs would always be guided by the needs of enterprises, continue to fight hard and improve the quality of their cases, and continue to strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights throughout the chain。
With strong criminal protection, in 2025, the number of original content outputs and offshore projects increased by more than 40 per cent each year, and many well-known cultural enterprises gathered locally to create a good ecological environment for the development of the digital cultural industry。
With a view to the future, kashing public security will also upgrade its intellectual control, an iterative early warning platform, integrating multiple data for global monitoring, breaking cross-border forensics and rights advocacy challenges; upgrade its coordinated services, promote the re-upgrading of co-management centres, improve the full closed circle of “quick warning-quick strike-quick proceedings-quick recovery” and introduce a cultural “new three types” of protective exclusive service package to provide risk warning and cross-border rights protection guidance to offshore enterprises ...
