In 1995, as the trademark holder of Wang Laoji, GPHL leased the production and sales rights of Wang Laoji in red cans to Jiaduobao, while GPHL produced Wang Laoji herbal tea in green Tetra Pak packaging, that is, green box Wang Laoji.

In p>1997, GPHL signed a trademark licensing contract with Hong Kong Hongdao Group, the parent company of Jiaduobao. In 2, the two parties signed a contract for the second time, stipulating that the lease period of Wang Laoji trademark by Hongdao Group would expire on May 2, 21.

from p>21 to 23, Li Yimin, then vice chairman and general manager of Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group, successively received HK$ 3 million from Chen Hongdao, chairman of Hongdao Group. Two valuable "agreements" were obtained: GPHL allowed Hongdao Group to extend the production and management right of "Red Canned Wang Laoji" until 22, and collected about 5 million yuan in trademark use fees every year.

Li Yimin has already been sentenced for accepting bribes, and Chen Hongdao has already escaped on bail, so far he has not been arrested. However, the trademark of Wang Laoji was rented to Hongdao Group at a low price. From 2 to 211, the trademark use fee of GPHL only increased by 56, yuan.

In p>24, Wang Laoji Pharmaceutical, a subsidiary of GPHL, launched a green box of Wang Laoji.

On August 3, 21, GPHL sent a lawyer's letter to Hongdao Group, complaining that the two supplementary agreements signed by Li Yimin were invalid. In November, 21, GPHL started the trademark evaluation procedure of Wang Laoji. At that time, the brand value of Wang Laoji was also evaluated as 18.15 billion yuan, ranking among the first brands in China.

In April, 211, GPHL filed an arbitration request with Trade Zhong, and provided relevant information; In May, Wang Laoji's trademark case was filed, and it was decided to open the court at the end of September of that year; Later, due to Hongdao Group's failure to respond to the lawsuit, the court session was postponed to December 29, 211, but the arbitration on that day did not produce results.

in January, 212, both parties supplemented all materials and fixed February 1th for arbitration; However, considering the trademark value of Wang Laoji, Mao Zhong suggested that both parties mediate and postpone the arbitration time for another three months until May 1th. However, because the mediation condition proposed by Hongdao Group is based on the validity of the supplementary contract, GPHL cannot accept it and the mediation fails.

On May 11th, 212, GPHL received an award dated May 9th, 212 from China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission, which ruled that the Supplementary Agreement on Trademark License of Wang Lao Ji and the Supplementary Agreement on Trademark License Contract of Wang Lao Ji signed by GPHL and Gatobao's parent company Hongdao (Group) Co., Ltd. were invalid. Hongdao (Group) Co., Ltd. stopped using the trademark "Wang Lao Ji".
