As we all know economic development significantly connected with implementation effect of intellectual property rights (IPRs) strategy. But the implementation efficiency of IPRs strategy is low and its role of transforming pattern of economic growth is not obvious in Changchun-Jilin-Tumenjiang (CJT) pilot zone of developing and opening. To solve the above problems, the key is to construct scientific and effective strategic system of IPRs in CJT pilot zone. In order to strengthen independent innovation and the sustainable development of the core competitiveness in the Northeast Old Industrial Base (NOIB), basing on the theory of IPRs and economic growth, the paper elaborates the role of the IPRs strategy promoting economic growth. Then we discuss the existing problem of intellectual property rights in CJT from three aspects, including investment funds of science and technology, the quantity of scientific research institutions and talents and IPRs quality. Lastly we propose the effective countermeasures of IPRs that promote the transformation of economic growth pattern in the NOIB, such as establishing modular financing scheme, strengthening the professional personnel training, accelerating "creation-utilization-management" and constructing management system and institution of IPRs.
