鈥楾imely Rain鈥 is crucial for firms doing business in Shanghai
Print Edition
Adrian Hamczyk, a Polish engineer, joined Tesla in 2020 as the CAE manager of the manufacturing engineering team at Tesla鈥檚 Shanghai Gigafactory in the Lingang Special Area of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone.
In 2023, his team encountered an issue involving the potential disclosure of trade secrets. Without authority, a technician retrieved the information in question and subsequently uploaded it to numerous cloud-based public areas, placing the organization at risk of breaches.
The volatile situation compelled Tesla to report the incident to public security officials and file a lawsuit in a local court.
At this point, the Pudong People鈥檚 Court鈥檚 Intellectual Property Tribunal stepped in. They accepted the case and granted a preservation ruling within 48 hours.
Then, many judges rushed to Beijing, effectively shutting down cloud storage accounts that could potentially cause leaks.
In handling this matter, the court not only exhibited timeliness and skill but also impressed Hamczyk with the Chinese justice鈥檚 determination and attention to preserving the legal rights and interests of domestic and foreign businesses.
The Pudong court has made a commitment to public legal education in order to effectively alleviate bottlenecks in commercial secret protection.
Tao Ye, the deputy presiding judge of the Pudong court鈥檚 Intellectual Property Tribunal, gave a detailed explanation of the importance of trade secret protection and relevant legal provisions at a lecture at the Lingang Special Area Legal Service Center, where Hamczyk and other corporate representatives were present.
鈥淚n Chinese, there is a phrase 鈥榯imely rain鈥 (which means timely support). I feel that, whether for our company or other businesses, the court鈥檚 assistance is like a timely rain, providing us with strong trade secret protection,鈥 said Hamczyk.
Tesla鈥檚 growth at Lingang is in full swing, with the official start of production at its Megafactory, the automaker鈥檚 first energy storage facility outside the United States.
鈥淲e have complete confidence in the future because we are protected by the judiciary. We will continue to work hard to build the city, making steady progress toward a better future together,鈥 Hamczyk stated.
