But if China wants a dynamic innovation system, it should resist pressure by Western governments to adopt the kind of unbalanced intellectual property laws that are being demanded. Instead, it should pursue a “balanced” intellectual property regime: because knowledge itself is the most important input in the production of knowledge, a badly designed intellectual property regime can stifle innovation – as has been the case in America in some areas.
但是，如果中国想要一个充满活力的创新体系，它就应该抵制西方国家要求采纳不平衡的知识产权法规的压力。相反，中国应该实施一种“平衡的”知识产权制度。由于知识本身是知识生产中最为重要的投入，规划不良的知识产权制度会阻碍创新。美国在某些领域中就是这样。
