Article 54 When a copyright or copyright-related rights are infringed, the infringer shall make compensation
based on the actual losses suffered by the rights holder or the illegal proceeds obtained by the infringer;
where it is difficult to compute the actual losses of the rights holder or the illegal proceeds obtained by the
infringer, compensation may be made with reference to the royalties for such rights. In the case of any
intentional infringement of a copyright or copyright-related rights, if the case is serious, compensation may
be paid ranging from one to five times the amount determined according to the aforesaid method.
Where it is difficult to compute the actual losses of the rights holder, the illegal proceeds obtained by the
infringer or the royalties, the people's court shall decide to award compensation ranging from CNY500 to
CNY5 million according to the circumstances of the infringement.
The amount of compensation shall also include the reasonable expenses incurred by the right holder in
halting the infringement.
In determining the amount of compensation, where the rights holder has performed the requisite burden of
proof, but the accounts books and materials relating to the infringement are kept by the infringer, the
people's court may order the infringer to provide accounts books and materials relating to the infringement;
where the infringer fails to provide accounts books and materials or where the accounts books and materials
provided by the infringer are false ones, the people's court may determine the amount of compensation with
reference to the assertion of the rights holder and the evidence provided.
In the trial of a copyright dispute case, the people's court shall, at the request of the rights holder, order that
the infringing copies be destroyed, except under special circumstances; or order that the materials, tools and
equipment used mainly for manufacturing the infringing copies be destroyed without compensation; or
under special circumstances, order that the aforesaid materials, tools and equipment be prohibited from
entering into commercial channels without compensation.

to have committed the illegal conduct and relevant articles, inspect and make copies of contracts, invoices,
