The people selected this time basically reflect the current situation of talent fostering in the national IP administrations. Efforts should be made to encourage multi-realm and multi-level talent cultivation with wider horizon and more extensive strategic thinking. Tian stressed that the criterion of high-level personnel selection should be based on high quality and high level. Cultivation to these persons is more important. Pragmatic measures should be taken to further strengthen the cultivation works.

The year 2007 is the first year to select the One Hundred High-Level Personnel for the "Project of One Hundred, One Thousand and Ten Thousand IP Talent Cultivation." In order to ensure the healthy development of the work, the SIPO established an examination panel consisting of SIPO leaders, leaders of related departments of SIPO, former SIPO leaders, leaders from provincial level IP administrations, and experts and scholars in IP realm, and set up an examination office.
