Haha, your LOGO can be used before applying for a trademark, but it cannot be protected by national laws. Others can also use this logo. Your trademark entering the substantive examination stage does not mean that your trademark has been registered, nor can it receive legal protection. Only after the trademark certificate is issued can your trademark be protected by the state, because the principle of trademarks in my country is to apply first. The principle of getting it first, you apply first, then it’s yours. Although the trademark has entered the substantive examination stage, the bureau will not issue a trademark certificate because there is still a one-year publicity period. If there are no problems during the publicity period, then the trademark is yours. As for whether R or TM is marked in the upper right corner of the trademark, in fact, in foreign countries, R and TM both mean registered trademarks. However, in China, people have formed the habit of using R to represent registered trademarks and TM to represent trademarks that are applying for registration. These are It doesn't make sense in the situation.
