Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The word embarrassment became popular for a while, and people also got publicity in Embarrassment.
Just when people were having fun playing with embarrassing words, a piece of news appeared in front of people's eyes.
Tang Universal Entertainment Co., Ltd. sued Tencent Group, Meipai Group and other software companies for copyright and patent infringement, demanding that they compensate Tang Universal Entertainment for losses of 20 million yuan and publicly apologize!
When this news appeared, the Internet exploded instantly.
"I'll it! What's the situation? ”
"Tang Entertainment has sued so many companies?"
"Tencent, Meipai? It's all a big group! ”
"So bite?!"
"Copyright vs. Patent Infringement? What the heck? ”
"Is it embarrassing?"
"No, what's there to infringe on?"
People are a little puzzled, where did those groups infringe on the copyright of Tang Universal Entertainment?
Not to mention netizens, even the in-house counsel of so many companies are a little confused.
My company has never been in contact with Tang Universal Entertainment, so why is it infringing?
Soon, they learned that Tang Entertainment had sued them for using their patented emoji in their company's software without their permission.
It made them laugh and cry.
What's going on?
Can you tell with an emoji?
What the hell are you kidding me?
After learning of the situation, the in-house counsel of these companies directly attributed the matter to Tang Universal Entertainment as an attempt to hype up their movie, and ignored it.
Emoticons can also be patented?
Aren't you kidding?
So if I patent crying, people all over the world are not allowed to cry?
Neurotic bar.
Netizens are also not optimistic about this matter, they are the same as the in-house counsel of these companies, they all think that embarrassment is an expression, how to apply for a patent with an expression? Are you kidding me?
However, the facts were contrary to everyone's expectations, and on the day of the trial, Tang Universal Entertainment Co., Ltd. produced a certificate of registered trademark and invention patent related to the word "embarrassment".
The lawyers present were all so surprised that their jaws dropped.
Oh my God, is there really a certificate of registered patent? You're not kidding me, are you?
Even the judge was a little flustered, and this was the first time he had seen this.
After confirming that the proof taken out by Tang Ren Company was true, the lawyers of other companies were a little messy, they didn't take it seriously at all before they came, they just took it as a joke and went through the motions, and now Tang Ren Global Entertainment really came up with the proof, how can they play this?
As a result, the judge announced in court that Tang Universal Entertainment had won the lawsuit, and demanded that the defendants Tencent, Meipai and other companies immediately remove the embarrassment expressions, compensate Tang Global Entertainment 5 million, and apologize.
The news was quickly posted online.
After seeing the news, netizens were all shocked and speechless.
"Win, win?"
"Tang Entertainment actually won?"
"Awesome! Unexpectedly, these large companies have won the battle. ”
"This is really patented!"
"Cow!"
"Convincing!"
"Admire!"
"If you win, you won, but why can this emoji still work!"
"yes, it still works."
Many netizens found that the lawsuit was won, but this expression can still be used, and it has not been taken off the shelves.
Netizens know that Tang Universal Entertainment Company naturally knows that not only that, but the rest of the companies have not lost money, and there is no way to apologize, as if everything has not been sent.
Scoundrels!
Several companies are experienced in this area, and a complaint is sent to the court and continues to delay.
They like to drag, and Tang Entertainment accompanies them to drag, which is also the real purpose of Tang Entertainment.
Hype!
They don't expect these big companies to lose money at all, what they want is to use these large companies to increase people's popularity in embarrassment.
Naturally, several other companies also knew Tang Universal's idea, but they couldn't help it, who let them lose in the first round?
This is not a conspiracy, this is a naked conspiracy. Either take it off the shelves and apologize for losing money, or spend it with yourself.
Do you choose the former or the latter?
It must be the latter, it's hard to lose money!
In the lawsuits and disputes between Tang Global Entertainment and several companies, coupled with the popularity of embarrassment, people are also taking advantage of this to rise, and the publicity is getting higher and higher.
Tang Niannian also gathered representatives of several domestic cinemas together and invited them to watch the film.
The result made Tang Niannian very satisfied, and representatives of several theaters were willing to arrange films for people in embarrassment.
After all, people's embarrassing publicity is now in an uproar, and the quality of the film itself is quite good, so they naturally won't miss the opportunity to make money.
After representatives of several large cinema chains, Tang Niannian invited some representatives of small and medium-sized cinema chains to watch the movie, and these people are also willing to arrange films for people in embarrassment.
Now the problem of arranging films in embarrassment has finally been completely settled.
The next thing is publicity, in terms of publicity, people are embarrassed and different from other movies, other movies are on the show in order to do publicity, and they are fans meeting or something, people are embarrassed, its creators are not popular in addition to the director, the other two protagonists are one is the king of the dragon set of ten thousand years, and the other is a newcomer to the turtle, there are no fans at all, not to mention that they are about to go abroad, and they don't have time to come to the show.
All the publicity can only revolve around this embarrassing word, fortunately, the Tang people registered the trademark and patent of the embarrassed character early at that time, otherwise the publicity effect of the embarrassed people in the embarrassing journey will be greatly discounted, and now with the popularity of the embarrassing word and the lawsuit of other companies, the overall publicity effect of the people in the embarrassing journey is still very good.
Tang Company, Chairman's Office.
Tang Ren, Lin Tian, and Tang Niannian are all there.
"Sister Niannian, I'll leave the movie to you." Tang Ren is going to Thailand tomorrow to meet Ye Feng and them, so I will explain things to the two of them today.
"Well, you don't have to worry about movies, the situation is very good now, but you have to decide how many movies will be released." The specific time for the release of the movie has not yet been decided, Tang Niannian wants to give this matter before the Tang people leave.
"Time is not in a hurry, now the publicity effect is so good, and our late release will also help our box office. It will be released on August 3rd! ”
Tang people have checked, there are no particularly strong movies at this point in time on August 3rd, and the strong movies are concentrated in July, which is very beneficial to people in embarrassing this kind of small-cost film, because the competitiveness is small, and August 3rd is also the middle of the summer file, as long as the results are better, it should not be a big problem to schedule films until September.
"Okay!" Tang Niannian responded.
"Lin Tian, the website will be handed over to you, remember that the website server must be very good, I don't want our website to have a server explosion in the future." Tang people can be sure that their website will be popular in the future, so the server is a very critical issue.
"Hmm. I know. Lin Tian nodded, the server is the foundation of a website, and Lin Tian also knows the Tang people's considerations.
"Then I'm sorry for you!" (To be continued.) )
