Editor's note: A report by the United Nations World Intellectual Property Organization shows China registered 1.1 million patents in 2015, the first country to file more than a million patent applications in a year. For the fifth year in a row, China has outranked leading innovative nations US and Japan in the number of new patent applications. If we rely on patent as the main index of innovation, does it indicate that China is on its way to becoming the innovation leader? Is China a global innovation powerhouse? China Daily readers share their opinions.
