Chapter 43 Pre-litigation injunction
Fujimura heard the female host's voice from the side and laughed, "Don't be so formal. Maybe the freighter is about to set sail. That's why the audience is rushing to stand over and watch. Don't worry about them, let them watch as they like.
When I was taking classes at Kyoto University, students were always allowed to come and go freely."
"Okay... okay, Professor Fujimura," the hostess hesitated for a moment before replying.
Even though Fujimura said this, he was already unhappy in his heart. The audience was ignoring him and watching the freighter from the floor-to-ceiling windows, which undoubtedly made him lose face.
The editor of this book is standing here right now.
Instead of paying attention to me, what kind of freighter are you going to see?!
Really!
Gradually, the number of people gathered in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass windows increased instead of decreasing. This strange phenomenon further attracted more people to leave their seats and go to watch. The crowd's discussion became louder and louder.
"Did you see that? There is a group of people in suits coming from the open space at the port."
"They seemed to be confronting each other with the workers decorating the books."
"In the end what happened?"
"It looks like there must be a quarrel. I really want to hear what they are talking about."
The female host looked at this scene, her face became embarrassed, and said to the rescue, "Dear listeners, after the symposium is over, there will be a signing session by Professor Fujimura, and everyone present can purchase a copy of "
"Report of the Eastern Land Patrol to the Tang Dynasty", let Professor Fujimura sign it."
Having said that, the female host also specially showed off the 150 copies of "The Journey to the Eastern Lands to the Tang Dynasty" that were placed in the lecture hall like a spiral staircase.
However, the sweet female voice that came through the microphone actually lost its effect.
The order of the scene has not been improved in any way.
Then, as if something happened, the reporters sitting in the last row picked up their mobile phones one after another, stared at the screen, and started reading. After a moment, several reporters rushed out of the lecture hall.
The female host's face had completely turned pale. She didn't expect that the audience would suddenly become unruly, and even the reporters would be so rude. Thinking that the famous professor from Kyoto University was sitting next to her, her heart trembled a little.
It's over, this symposium is a mess.
My wages will be deducted.
Fujimura looked at the scene in front of him, and his inner dissatisfaction reached its peak. The way these people ignored him one by one made the dean feel that his authority had been challenged.
How could a good symposium be held like this! The Osaka Cultural Center’s organizational skills are really low!
I will definitely never come to them again!
Although he thought so in his heart, Fujimura could not get angry publicly, so he stood up and forced a smile, "It seems that the freighter carrying books has attracted a lot of attention from everyone. I might as well come and watch it with you."
"
Fujimura also walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass and looked up at the scene behind the glass in front of him.
A huge cargo ship that is almost as high as the cultural center is parked next to the central jetty of Osaka Port in front of us. Under the shadow of the huge freighter, the people decorating books underneath seem to have become tiny ant dots. At the entrance to the port jetty,
It was very obvious that several modified vans were parked. A group of people in suits who got off the vans had entered the port's operating area and seemed to be obstructing the loading of books.
Fujimura frowned, wondering why such a bunch of unknown people suddenly appeared.
At this time, a burst of "click, click, click" footsteps suddenly sounded outside the corridor. The next second, the door of the lecture hall was suddenly pushed open, and a dozen men and women in black suits rushed into the room.
Lecture Hall. The leading man didn't seem to care that their actions interrupted the ongoing symposium. He walked directly to the stage and said;
"Excuse me, who is Professor Fujimura Kayo?"
Seeing the rude look of this group of people, Fujimura stepped forward and said, "I am Fujimura. There is an event going on here, how can you just interrupt? Don't you know how to abide by the most basic etiquette!"
The leading man listened to Fujimura's scolding words, and his expression did not change at all. He just pointed at a badge on his suit.
But I saw that this badge was the Yata Mirror Badge.
"We are judicial staff of the Osaka Minato District District Court. We are now entrusted by the Sakyo District District Court of Kyoto Prefecture to enforce a pre-litigation injunction in a copyright infringement dispute." The leading man said coldly, "According to the injunction applicant, your name is
The published "Travel to the East" is suspected of infringing on the copyright of others. The other party has applied for preservation of the published work, and at the same time stopped all ongoing printing, publishing, and sales of the work. It is now pending at Osaka Port
The three thousand volumes of "The Eastern Land Parade to the Tang Dynasty" sent overseas need to be seized immediately."
Referee...people from the tribunal?! Fujimura was shocked in his heart, and when he heard that he was here for "The Eastern Land Parade to the Tang Dynasty", his eyes widened even more.
Could it be Xiachuan?
He...he actually filed a lawsuit?
Wasn't his lawyer arrested?!
"Wait, judge. There must be some misunderstanding here!" Fujimura said immediately, "There must be some misunderstanding. I was wronged. Is the person who applied for the pre-litigation injunction Shimokawa? He is lying. He
You’re lying!”
The leading man ignored it, just turned around and looked at the 150 volumes of "The Eastern Land Parade to the Tang Dynasty" placed in the lecture hall, and said calmly, "These must also be seized together!"
With a "snap", the court's seal was directly attached to the books on site, and several judge assistants immediately began to move the books.
The reporters at the scene heard vague words about "copyright infringement", and then saw the court's seal being affixed to the books. A commotion broke out in an instant. They had no idea that what seemed like a peaceful incident should be going on.
The academic symposium unexpectedly took such a dramatic turn.
In an instant, a violent flash of light sounded.
Photos of the incident that occurred at the Osaka Cultural Center were immediately sent back to various television stations and newspapers.

At the same time, Tateishi Printing Factory, Yamashina-ku, Kyoto.
On the second floor, printing factory workers looked at the menacing group of people in suits in front of them and couldn't help but stop what they were doing. They ignored the dozens of newly printed books placed on the large table in the middle and had not yet been sorted.
pages and trimmings. They had never seen such a scene before,
I only heard a woman standing at the front say: "We are the Sakyo District District Court in Kyoto Prefecture. We are currently executing a pre-litigation injunction regarding a copyright infringement dispute. Please ask your factory to immediately stop printing "The Journey to the East"
". Anyone who violates the pre-litigation injunction shall, in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Procedure Law, be fined and judicially detained on the grounds of obstructing civil proceedings, and shall bear joint tort liability for civil infringements."

Library of Congress, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.
Kurosawa slowly walked into the library. Recently, he had almost finished reading "The Journey to the East". Kurosawa came to the bookshelf No. H267 on the fourth floor as usual and was raising his hand to take out the book as usual.
When I came out, I found that the familiar location was empty.
Kurosawa frowned, and when he saw a librarian passing by, he asked, "Why is there a book missing from the bookshelf? The title is "Eastern Land Parade to the Tang Dynasty". I looked at the display in the library,
No one borrowed it. Why is it missing from the bookshelf?"
When the administrator heard the title, he turned around and said helplessly: "That book you mentioned has been removed from the library."
"Removed?" Kurosawa asked, "Why was it removed?"
The administrator shrugged, "Because we received a notice from the court saying that it is suspected of being a copyright infringement work and must be removed from the bookshelf and properly sealed. If not, we may
bear legal responsibility."
Infringement...infringement?! When Kurosawa heard the statement, he felt a little unbelievable for a moment. This is obviously an ancient book and is not protected by intellectual property rights. How could it be involved in a copyright infringement work?
He didn't believe what the administrator said, but the bookshelf was indeed empty.
Immediately, Kurosawa took out his mobile phone and immediately searched for "Eastern Land Parade to Tang Dynasty" on the online bookstore.
However, a few cold characters popped up in the result:
"No information found."
…
…
