They are all real. The red can body has Jiaduobao on one side, Wong Lo Kat on the other, and Wong Lao Kat on the mouth of the can. It was the name before Wong Lao Kat was officially changed to Jiaduobao. At first, it was all Wonglaoji, with only a small Jiaduobao product on the back. Now that it has been officially changed to Jiaduobao, it looks like the other one you have now.
The Wong Lo Kat brand was promoted by Jiaduobao. It can be said that Jiaduobao created the fame of Wong Lao Kat drinks. However, the trademark rights originally belonged to Guangzhou Pharmaceutical.
In 1997, GPHL signed a trademark licensing contract with Hong Kong Hongdao Group. The latter authorized its subsidiary Jiaduobao Group to sell red cans of Wonglaoji in China. The contract was signed again in 2000 and the two parties renewed the contract. Until May 2, 2010. However, in August 2001 and August 2002, Li Yimin, the former vice chairman of GPHL, received HK$1 million from Chen Hongdao, chairman of Hong Kong Hongdao Group, and in November 2002, the two parties signed a supplementary agreement to transfer the trademark The renewal period has been extended to 2013. In June 2003, Li Yimin once again accepted HK$1 million from Chen Hongdao, and signed a second supplementary agreement in the same month, agreeing to extend the lease term of the Wong Lo Kat trademark to 2020.
Today, Li Yimin has been sentenced for accepting bribes, and Chen Hongdao has also fled on bail, but he has not been arrested and brought to justice. However, the Wong Lo Kat trademark was leased to Hongdao Group at a low price. From 2000 to 2011, GPHL's trademark usage fee only increased by 560,000 yuan.
"GPharma Group is a state-owned enterprise, and Wanglaoji is a state-owned asset. The incident has been suspected of the loss of state-owned assets." The case agent of GPHL said in an interview with a reporter from Xinkuai News yesterday that since 2008, Negotiations with Hongdao Group failed. On August 30, 2010, GPHL sent a lawyer's letter to Hongdao Group, complaining that the two supplementary agreements signed by Li Yimin were invalid.
In November 2010, GPHL launched the Wong Lo Kat trademark evaluation process. At that time, the brand value of Wong Lo Kat was also assessed at 108.015 billion yuan, making it the number one brand in China.
In April 2011, GPHL submitted an arbitration request to CIETAC and provided corresponding information; in May, the Wong Lo Kat trademark case was filed, and the hearing was scheduled to be held at the end of September that year; later, because Hongdao Group had not responded to the lawsuit, the hearing was held The time was postponed to December 29, 2011, but no result was produced on that day.
In January 2012, both parties supplemented all materials and determined the arbitration date on February 10; however, considering the value of the Wong Lo Kat trademark, CIETAC suggested that both parties mediate and postpone the arbitration for another three months to May 10 day. However, because the mediation conditions proposed by Hongdao Group were based on the validity of the supplementary contract, GPHL could not accept it and the mediation failed.
On May 11, 2012, GPHL received an award from the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission dated May 9, 2012. The trade arbitration award: GPHL and the parent company of Jiaduobao The "Supplementary Agreement on the "Wang Lao Kat" Trademark License" and the "Supplementary Agreement on the "Wang Lao Kat" Trademark License Contract" signed by Hongdao (Group) Co., Ltd. are invalid; Hongdao (Group) Co., Ltd. stopped using the "Wanglao Kat" trademark. The award is final and effective from the date of issuance.
