He said: "copyright protection system has played a very important role in the development of this area. I believe that copyright protection can better promote the development of home textile industry."

In addition, root chef also suggested that in order to promote the development of the home textile industry, only the copyright protection system is not enough. It should also create a better external environment for the development of the home textile industry in terms of talent cultivation.

It is reported that the World Intellectual Property Organization and the China National Copyright Administration (NCAC) will conduct a 8 month investigation in Nantong on the topic of "the study on the impact of copyright protection on the development of the textile market in Nantong". This is a micro project of WIPO on the protection of copyright and the results of economic promotion for a specific region and an industry in a country. This is the first time in China and even in the world.

In April 2006, Nantong Home Textile City, as the representative of the copyright protection of Chinese home textile industry, was listed as the research point of copyright protection by the United Nations Intellectual Property Organization (IPR), and received the attention of the international community.
