The Chinese Martial Arts Association sued Chanel for infringement, what exactly is going on?

Chinese martial arts believes that Chanel’s trademark LOGO infringes on the traditional Chinese weapon Bagua Ziwu Yuanyang Yue. How It Happened

Everyone should be familiar with the Chanel logo. It is two semi-circular rings intersecting to form a very abstract geometric pattern. The shape of the Bagua Ziwu Yuanyang Yue, a traditional Chinese weapon, is similar to the Chanel logo. However, the history of Bagua Ziwu Yuanyang Yue as a traditional Chinese weapon is earlier than Chanel. Netizens do not believe that Chinese martial arts can successfully appeal

Long before the court heard the case publicly, many netizens had already come to their own conclusion that it was impossible to succeed. Some people believe that the weapons involve no intellectual property rights and no registered trademarks; some netizens believe that the ancestor who created the Bagua Ziwu Yuanyang Yue, a traditional Chinese weapon, has passed away for more than 100 years, and the trademark protection period is only 50 years, so the Bagua Ziwu Yuanyang Yue, a traditional Chinese weapon, has expired. 50 year protection period. The cause of the incident was that Chanel sued Huawei for allegedly plagiarizing its trademark. However, Chanel lost the lawsuit. At this time, the Wushu Association stood up and said that Chanel's trademark logo was suspected of plagiarizing the traditional Chinese weapon Bagua Ziwu Yuanyang Yue, and it had been formally sued in court. Judging from the pictures released by the Wushu Association, the two are very similar, but the differences between the two fields are also very far. Magic defeated magic

Netizens were also a little amused by this incident, calling it "magic defeated magic", because Chanel first sued Huawei for allegedly plagiarizing its logo. It was not until then that the Wushu Association came forward to sue Chanel for plagiarizing traditional Chinese weapons, which made many netizens very funny. Wushu Association Rumors

In response to this matter, the Guiyang Wushu Association also came forward to refute the rumors. The Guiyang Martial Arts Association has not registered an organization like the Guiyang Summit, so this incident may just be entertainment for netizens. Although it is just a rumor, many netizens still think it is really cool to do this. This is how magic defeats magic. However, we should not believe rumors casually, let alone spread rumors casually.
