China doesn't need licences. They can just violate western IP law and make lots of money. As every country without a need to placate the IP industry does.

That's why they bought Qimonda's IP portfolio, so they have valid licenses when they start to sell their products in the west and not get banned for IP theft, although I assume the US & allies will just ban them anyway for another dozen reasons out of protectionism.
