After the utility model or design patent application is announced, you can obtain the same invention patent Application for the same temporary protection after publication. That is, the applicant can require the unit or individual who implements the utility model or design to pay appropriate fees.

When the patent administration agency mediates the case, it shall have the right to decide that the unit or individual implementing the utility model or design shall pay appropriate fees within a specified period of time. If the party concerned is dissatisfied with the decision of the patent administration authority, he may file a lawsuit in the People's Court.
Article 13 of the Patent Law stipulates: "After the invention patent application is published, the applicant may require the unit or individual who implements the invention to pay appropriate fees."
