The Beijing District Court still took it more cautiously for several companies to accuse the FN Club of the beta version of Pili Beibei antivirus software.

This is not to say how dedicated the judges are, but the people in the Beijing circle are at least aware of how powerful Fan Ting's company is. With the strong strength of Fan's Investment Group, it is much stronger than Microsoft. How can you accidentally deal with such a company?

Besides, this also involves the influence of Member Fan Heng. If you offend him, your future career will inevitably be affected to a certain extent.

However, as of now, the FN Club has not made any too strong reaction, and has also accepted the court's subpoena indifferently. The first time he appeared in court to present evidence will be held soon. Many people in the Beijing media industry will come to hear the case. It is said that the bystander license originally given, but was sold privately at a high price by the court. Now it is rare, and there are many people who spend a thousand yuan to buy the license.

After Fan Wubing sent Shen Ying back to the Shen family's home in Beijing, he rushed to the FN Club headquarters building to discuss the matter with his sister Fan Ting. At the same time, he summoned the company's royal lawyers to discuss the matter of appearing in court.

"Didn't you say there is a solution?" Fan Ting asked Fan Wubing.

"I have an idea, but it's just immature, so I need to know from professionals." Fan Wubing said with a smile.

In the case where Fan Wubing discovered this time, at least a few points are worth noting. One is that the company simply integrated the module with logic bombs into the beta version of the software without knowing it, for people to download and try it out. There seems to be no anti-pirated version in this case.

The second is the program that loads logic bombs. The program member lives overseas. In terms of criminal suspicion, this is also an overseas crime. What laws should be used and what legal authorities should be pursued? It seems that it is questionable. At least the blame cannot be added to the FN club.

As for the third reason, although the beta version of the software is loaded with logic bombs, no triggering conditions are set, which means that this logic bomb will never occur, so there will be no victims.

Fan Wubing also thought of the conditions for counterattack, which was the conditions for several competitors. Why did the players quickly grasp this situation without any logical bombs on Pili Beibei Software? It can only mean that the other party has been cracking and tracking and researching their company's software.

According to the protection of copyright law, any cracking of other software that has commercial purpose is infringing on the rights and interests of the original author and should be pursued in accordance with the law.

In fact, the domestic laws for the protection of the software industry are not sound, and the laws for Internet communication are incomplete. For this just emerging industry, the legal community is basically confused and has no deep understanding at all. Even most legal practitioners do not realize that there will be more and more Internet-based cases in the future, and there will be fewer and fewer legal provisions to adapt to the law, which cannot meet the needs of actual situations.

After sitting together for a while, we finally came up with a clear idea. Basically, the lawyers agreed with Fan Wubing’s several starting points. Of course, they had to make some modifications in the details. This is a means of court debate. It is impossible to lift all the cards out of the box at the beginning, but they should be flipped out one by one at the necessary moments to catch the other party off guard and speak out. Only in this way can they be convinced and the trial is beneficial to themselves.

"In fact, it is mainly because Microsoft has made too big moves recently. We have had such a thing again. It will inevitably make many people feel that FN has to imitate Microsoft and crack down on piracy." Fan Ting said to Fan Wubing.

Fan Wubing rubbed his forehead to express his understanding.

In recent times, Microsoft Chinese companies have been very enthusiastic about anti-piracy, and their purpose is not only to promote the concept of anti-piracy, but more importantly to performance needs. It is understood that many users, especially corporate users, have decided not to buy Microsoft's ffie products, or use other software such as ffie.

However, some small companies said that the company's IT management was not standardized before, and many were contracted and outsourced. Now it is difficult to figure out which software is legally authorized and which ones are pirated. They had to buy all of them and authorize them all, hoping to find a better supplier to give discounts.

Many companies have also reported that many software dealers currently cooperate with Microsoft to send faxes or call companies to say that they have already obtained evidence of your piracy and want to not sue, then how many licenses must be purchased within the deadline, etc.

In response, a corporate boss complained that this was simply nonsense. The base computers of their company were all E-ind, while the office software was developed by themselves, and the server was running the system. These software vendors were inexplicably extorted.

Some industry insiders also said that Microsoft is explicitly anti-pirated, but is actually promoting promotions. This intimidating marketing method has long been adopted. Not only Microsoft does this, but many foreign software companies such as tdek and Dbe have adopted such marketing methods in China to promote marketing, but generally they will not be carried out directly by software companies, and most of them are left to agents to impersonate the name of software companies.

In this way, when legal or moral hazard occurs, software manufacturers can completely avoid it.

"Our company has also received similar threats, but I immediately called the police. The other party was already under control and was planning to sue them. My eyes were not rubbed." Fan Ting said when she mentioned this.

Fan Wubing nodded. Fan's Investment Group usually pays great attention to this kind of thing, so the company's computers are all equipped with genuine operating systems, and the office software is authorized or developed by itself. It does not need to be threatened by others. Of course, the main reason is that Fan's Investment Group is rich and does not need to use pirated copies. Although this can save some money, it is not troublesome enough.

Enterprise users naturally don’t need to worry about these funds like individual users, let alone companies as big as Fan’s Investment Group naturally don’t need to save money in this regard.

"Actually, I think it's very troublesome to produce antivirus software now. The input and output are completely disproportionate, and I have to face the problem of a large number of pirated users. It's really not worth the effort. If so much investment is put into other aspects, or it is more cost-effective, similar things will not happen again." Fan Ting suddenly said to Fan Wubing.

"Do you don't want your brother-in-law to work too hard?" Fan Wubing replied with a smile.

"Go to you, you are the one who knows the most about association." Fan Ting reached out to pat Fan Wubing for a moment, then scratched her hair and said, "But what you said makes sense."

After sending several lawyers away, Fan Wubing got some drinks and asked his sister if there was any major news about the sea in China recently?

Fan Ting looked at Fan Wubing in confusion, and then replied, "Have you heard of it?"

"Oh, that's right." Fan Wubing nodded, knowing it in his heart.

Although I had previously gone to Australia to avoid the limelight because of provoking internal strife in the officialdom in the sea, it was expected that the calm there was a situation. After all, things at this level could not be done with great fanfare. Even if I get real evidence, I would have to investigate and collect evidence and deal with it in secret. The external news would be low-key, such as the other party had to resign due to physical reasons. This is the most commonly used method.

Because of the different national conditions, Fan Wubing hopes to see things like the United States that can allow independent investigators to collect evidence of the president's crimes, which will not happen to us.

"What I care most about now is whether to continue to do antivirus software? There is also the ffie software series, which has a lot of investment, but the output is only several times. Faced with the overwhelming pirated software, I feel so depressed." Fan Ting said.

Fan Wubing poured a cup of tea for his sister, and then slowly replied, "My considerations are different from yours. Naturally, we cannot only see the immediate benefits when doing things. It is precisely because of ffie that Microsoft's ffie software is not unique in China. After having competitors, even if they rely on piracy to compete for the market, they must consider whether it is suitable for Chinese people to use. Some of the usages and subtleties of habit are enough to determine the market share."

"What do you mean is that we can also follow Microsoft in this regard and exchange piracy for the market?" Fan Ting asked.

"Haha, it's basically the same." Fan Wubing said with a smile, "Since they can do it, we can do it too, so we can do it, so we will pirate it. We are also cultivating market habits, just like the upcoming QQ software, which all rely on cultivating market habits to survive. Once the time is right, it will be our harvest era."
