In this era when televisions are not yet very popular, Huaguo Daily has become the first choice for many people to obtain information.
Even those wealthy people who already have televisions in their homes have developed the habit of reading books and newspapers.
As one of the most well-known newspapers in China, Huaguo Daily has naturally become the choice of many people.
Because of this, the article about cultural copyright infringement reported for the first time by Huaguo Daily has attracted a lot of attention.
Of course, Yang Jianguang’s article was slightly changed when it was published in Huaguo Daily.
Huaguo Daily not only explained in detail how Qianyan Company committed infringement, but also later launched a strong complaint against the above two companies on behalf of Yang Jianguang's Duoai Digital Company.
Finally, Huaguo Daily strongly called on everyone in the article to respect copyright, respect creators, and work together to promote the progress of social civilization.
A positive media like Huaguo Daily calls on everyone to work hard, be positive, and respect copyright. This is very normal.
The only thing that surprised everyone was this incident.
And China’s official attitude towards copyright.
All the time.
It can be said that China has ignored the copycat piracy that appeared among civilians in its territory. This is the first time such a formal complaint has been made.
Of course, the law clearly stipulates that you cannot infringe on other people's interests or copyrights.
However, at that time, China had no intention to care about so much, and ordinary people did not have a strong awareness of rights protection, and they did not even know that it was illegal for others to infringe copyright.
In other words, the Chinese officials at that time would not specifically develop copycat piracy and would not contribute to the prestige of copycat piracy.
But we will not deliberately control copycat piracy.
In fact, this has to mention a country known as a big copying country. This country is actually very similar to China at that time.
But in the end, China chose to respect copyright.
Encourage individual research and development and embark on a path of self-development.
In order to save trouble, a certain country chose to ignore copyright, encouraged everyone to copy and paste, and embarked on a copycat road.
So it can also be said that it was a helpless choice made by Chinese officials back then. China's economy had been sluggish before.
Even ensuring basic food and clothing has become a certain problem.
Where is there anyone who cares about R&D or not?
But with the development of the times, and with the old man's words, it doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat, and China's economy is booming.
When the economy develops to a certain level and the problem of food and clothing is solved, Chinese officials will naturally start to pay attention to issues such as research, scientific and technological development, and cultural copyright.
So under this circumstance, Yang Jianguang's incident and this article are just in time.
But regardless of whether it was a coincidence or what happened, this incident still caused a sensation and attracted strong attention from above.
As ordinary people who read books and newspapers, they don't care how the above strategies have changed.
All they know is that this is indeed a mistake worthy of criticism. In this case, they have the right and reason to criticize Qianyan Company and Hongbiao Machinery Factory in the article.
Less than an hour after the newspaper came out, Qianyan Company’s distribution points across the country welcomed a group of Qianyan consumers. They were holding their own VCDs and clamoring for Qianyan to return the goods.
Qianyan Company, which once accounted for 3/4 of China's VCD shipments, saw its VCD sales fall below 100 units for the first time that day.
As for Qianyan Company, after learning about the dismal situation, they immediately recalled all the discs released by the company as soon as the newspaper was published.
Fortunately, Qianyan Company adopted Yang Jianguang's free distribution strategy when releasing these discs. Otherwise, the recall costs this time would have been sky-high.
Not long after, another well-known newspaper in China, Oriental Daily, published an apology statement from Qianyan Company.
Apology statement: Dear customers and friends from China, hello everyone! Regarding our company (Qianyan Digital)'s infringement of the copyright of Duoai Vcd Company's film and TV series resources, our company once again makes a formal apology to Duoai Vcd Company.
This copyright infringement incident was mainly caused by the company's operations manager being unfamiliar with the copyright owner and being lax about the law. The employee was severely punished and the labor contract was terminated.
As an emerging digital company, Qianyan Company is well aware of the importance of copyright and the importance of respecting the copyright of others.
Because of this, we understand what kind of harm our infringement has caused to Duoai vcd company.
Therefore, our company hereby specifically states that it is willing to accept all reasonable claims from Duoai vcd Company, and will use other people's copyrights through formal channels.
at last.
Qianyan Company takes this opportunity to once again express its apology to Duoai vcd Company."
The apology statement published by Qianyan Company in Oriental Daily is extremely sincere.
Although "Oriental Daily" is not as influential as Huaguo Daily, it is still a well-known domestic newspaper brand. In addition, there are many people paying attention to this matter, so this apology statement was also widely disseminated.
And this incident also attracted the attention of media from various places.
They took in the heat of this matter and naturally would not let go of such an opportunity.
A large number of media got involved, and they began to follow suit and report this matter, calling on everyone to start paying attention to copyright and support the infringed Duoai VCD company.
It can be said that after this incident, Yang Jianguang's Duoai vcd instantly became famous in China to a great extent. Duoai vcd, which was originally only well-known in Shanghai and other places, began to be initially known by people across the country.
When Qianyan Company issued an apology statement, a large number of media outlets immediately came out to praise Qianyan Company for its good attitude in admitting its mistakes.
He is a well-educated person.
A large company with a sense of social responsibility.
At the same time, these media also deliberately used the same infringing Hongbiao VCD to compare with Qianyan VCD.
I call on everyone to forgive the founder of the VCD brand.
Even a discerning person can easily see that these media have been bribed by Qianyan Company. Therefore, these media will take the initiative to stand up and speak for Qianyan Company.
But for most ordinary people, they have no idea what the problem is. On the contrary, they believe what the media says, not to mention that there is a certain truth in what these media say.
No one is a saint, and no one can make mistakes. Although Qianyan vcd really infringed on others, at least he corrected his mistakes when he knew they were wrong. He also paid others the fees for the infringement and published an apology in the newspaper. There is no need to beat them with a stick.
died.
With the help of a large group of media, although the reputation of Qianyan Company has suffered a certain loss, it has been restored in time.
At the same time, Mr. Huang also endured his anger and came to Yang Jianguang to pay for the infringement.
