近日，世界知识产权组织前总干事高锐(Francis Gurry)在接受中国新闻网专访时表示，新的一年带来希望的同时，也将带来新的挑战。一方面，当前全球科技竞争愈发激烈，将为世界各国，尤其是技术大国，带来新难题。

高锐表示，技术垄断、贸易壁垒等现象的出现，不利于国际技术交流和研发，但他相信，中国作为一个负责任的技术大国，将迎难而上，巩固其技术引领优势。

While the arrival of the Year of the Snake ignites new hopes, Francis Gurry, former director general of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) warned of new challenges and risks ahead, during an exclusive interview with China News Network.

For one thing, the increasingly intense competition in technology will present new problems for countries worldwide, especially technological powerhouses.

For another, Gurry pointed out that technological monopolies and trade barriers impede international technological exchange and research. However, he is confident that China, as a responsible global technology leader, will rise to the challenge and strengthen its position at the forefront of technology.

At last, he wished all his Chinese friends a happy Year of the Snake, with much good fortune in the year ahead. (Lin Zhuowei)
