China says its bullet train technology was stolen, days after US trade probe move

Officials urged to do more to protect intellectual property in commentary published two days after US announcement

Beijing has apparently hit back at US plans to investigate intellectual property violations by China, with officials urged to do more to protect bullet train technology from theft.

The call came in a commentary published in the official Procuratorial Daily on Wednesday, two days after it was announced that US President Donald Trump would authorise his trade representative to look into China’s trade practices.

Developing countries had “spied on and stolen” China’s fast-train technology to get the competitive edge at the expense of Chinese companies, the commentary said, without naming the countries.

Its authors – Gao Xiaoyi, a vice chief of the Shanghai People’s Procuratorate, and Sun Dawei, of the Shanghai Railway Transport Procuratorate – said China had developed its own technology to build an extensive high-speed railway network but had failed to adequately protect its know-how.

Every single Chinese "diplomat",every single Chinese "student" and 95% of Chinese "tourists" in this country are spies.Some look for military secrets,some are industrial spies.

What truly Chinese technology would advanced nations like the US,Japan,Germany,Britain,etc *possibly* want to steal from China????

At my university, the cheating was similarly done by international students.

They justified it by saying English wasn't their first language, so it was only fair to cheat.

Students were highly pressured to give their homework and tests to the next year's students. I knew one who occasionally refused, but the others from her country considered her a pariah.

A passenger train is a waste of money in the usa. We don’t live in compact cities.

God knows we don’t need to steal Chinese high speed train technology! Our tracks max out at 90 mph. We can’t even make money on Amtrak, a monopoly!

What could the technology be anyways? Newly designed tracks? I guess you can do lay new tracks wherever you want in a communist country without eminent domain.

Personally I think that China should built lots of bullet trains. Lots and lots and lots of them. Let them pay the unending cost of these boondoggles!

In Chinese culture it’s considered ok to break any rule/law as long as you don’t get caught.

I think that's pretty universal.

Trains: 19th Century solutions to 20th Century individual transportation problems.

Yes, I suppose they can work in high-population-density areas, but that isn’t most of the USA.

China, you have no technology anyone would want.

Additionally, you have virtually no foreign students in your “higher education” to steal, as you do in the US and elsewhere.

China, you are morally bankrupt in all ways.

“I know people in CA who wouldn’t shed a tear if we extradited Jerry Brown to China.”

As a long time Californian, I would work for free to get signatures collected if that helped to extradite Brown.
