Chapter 180: The Storm of Rights Protection

Du Niang Group's account sheet this year is still surging red across the board, which can be said to be a spring breeze, so Xu Gang's mood is quite good. At this moment, he is planning for next year's author's basic plan, which includes several relatively large projects, ready to be launched one by one. At this moment, he received a call, but he was in a bad mood, but to be able to make this call, it should be said that the other party was not small, and Xu Gang had to stop working to answer.

"Hey, who are you?"

"Are you Xu Gang? I am Guan Ming, Minister of Industry and Information Technology, and I have a notice for you. Someone will come to you in a moment and let you know in advance. ”

The network is under the control of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, so Xu Gang is still afraid of this department. It's just that I don't know what the notice is.,I actually let the minister personally issue it.,Under normal circumstances, it's good to have a director or something.,It seems that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has some new major decision on the network.。

"Minister Guan, can I ask what the notice is?"

The other end of the phone hesitated, Xu Gang thought he had asked something that shouldn't be asked, and he was a little apprehensive. This notice is too weird.,It seems to be for the Du Niang group.,It can't be that the country wants to ban Du Niang, right? Xu Gang was thinking wildly in his heart until the other party answered.

"You'll know what the notice is in a moment, it's not convenient for me to say more here. However, there is one thing I would like to remind you of first, this notice was personally issued by the above, and it must be taken seriously. In addition, there is a grapevine, which seems to be deliberately focusing on intellectual property rights, so you should converge. ”

Minister Guan was also a little inexplicable about this notice, and suddenly issued such an order, without any warning in advance. It's so unusual, it seems that this gossip is indeed true.

After Xu Gang heard Minister Guan's answer, he sat in his seat and pondered. Intellectual property? Is it about Du Niang's infringement of music and other fields? But these things have been dealt with before, and in the end they are all over, why do you have to turn over the old accounts now?

"No, that's wrong!"

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is above the State Council, which is the highest administrative organ of the country, where can they personally order such a thing as infringement? This formation is also a little too big. Focus on intellectual property rights, then go to catch it, but only for my Du Niang group, is it that it is ready to kill chickens to show monkeys?

"Mr. Xu, there are a few political axe personnel from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology who want to see you."

Just when Xu Gang was thinking hard about what was behind this incident, the voice of the secretary came from the phone. He quickly tidied up his clothes, and then walked out of the door himself, ready to greet the arrival.

"Mr. Xu, they put down a document and left, saying that it was a major document, please watch it immediately."

"Quick, get the files in."

When the secretary came in, he had the same document in his hand. Xu Gang couldn't wait to take it, and then carefully watched what it was. The notice is very simple, that is, Du Niang Group immediately carried out a major overhaul of its search engine, removed all links to infringing websites, and strengthened the management of Tieba, and there must be no unauthorized works.

This kind of document has been received a few times by Du Niang in the past, but in the end, it is all thunder and rain, and it will be fine after a hard fight. But this time the situation is so weird, according to the usual way of handling, can it still be passed? Xu Gang was a little uncertain in his heart, so he called a few connections in the political axe department, hoping to get some clear instructions.

"Xiao Xu, don't ask about this, just carry it out. This time it was not arranged by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, but the people above personally instructed it, and it was not sloppy at all. ”

Xu Gang made several calls in a row, all of which were similar suggestions, and it seemed that this thing was real. But if you really do it, Du Niang will suffer the biggest crisis since its establishment. If users can't search for those infringing websites, the reputation that Du Niang has built up for a long time will be completely ruined.

"This thing must not be done, otherwise the Du Niang Group will only perish!"

Xu Gang still can't make up his mind to do this,But this document can't be ignored.,It seems that a compromise is needed.,So Xu Gang made a decision,Du Niang himself does not appear infringing products,For example, Du Niangmp3 only includes online covers、Works that are original on the Internet or authorized by the author,And Du Niang Library also deleted all unauthorized commercial works。 In addition, it is a post bar, and all infringing images, texts and other works have also been deleted. As for the links to the infringing websites, Du Niang does not plan to cancel them, at most to remove some of them for show.

"Mr. Xu, do you really plan to do this? This is too much of a blow for our company! ”

When Xu Gang's order was announced at the board meeting, everyone was a little stunned. Du Niang Group is now in the rising period of its career, isn't it self-defeating to do so?

"I can't help it, it's just expediency. The domestic policy direction has changed, and Du Niang Group needs to transform and move towards formalization. For example, Du Niang mp3, we can negotiate with the music company and pay a certain fee to obtain the right to network transmission. Although this is a big cost, if the political axe really cracks down on piracy and bans those infringing websites, then the users of their websites will be absorbed by us, and there will be losses and gains. ”

Then Xu Gang took out the notice he had just received, and said what he had heard in the morning. When the other directors understood the reasoning, they could only accept this outcome.

"From today onwards, our Du Niang Group responds to the call of the political axe and plays the slogan of rights protection! Strive to steer this bad thing in our favor! ”

………………………………………… On the Internet, everyone was surprised to find that when using Du Niang, a paragraph appeared on the page: "We resolutely safeguard the rights and interests of every creator and say no to piracy". This is also so funny, the biggest piracy website is now shouting to defend its rights, isn't this a thief shouting to catch a thief?

A lot of people laughed, but they didn't care. It is estimated that it is the recent rights protection incident, which makes Du Niang arrogant and put on a show, which is also a commonplace. But when they entered Du Niang's mp3 and were about to search for new songs, they found that there were only a few songs left on the original full page, and even foreign songs were also murdered.

"No, could it be that Du Niang has undergone a surname change operation, man?"

They hurriedly went back and searched for it, but fortunately, they could search some music websites that they usually go to. Now they are relieved, as long as the search is found, it's a big deal to endure the advertising pop-ups. As long as they can hear the latest songs, they are satisfied.

There are also some friends who like to go to the post bar, and they also found that countless posts were deleted overnight, especially the post bar of some novels, and all the VIP chapter pictures disappeared. Some of them spent a lot of time making hand fights, which were also removed.

These people are surprisingly angry, this is a violation of the fruits of their labor! So they first scolded the owner of the post bar, because they thought it was the owner of the bar who deleted the post, and after the scolded dog bloody bar owner made an explanation, everyone knew that it was the post bar administrator who did it. So their guns turned to Du Niang and protested one by one.

But Du Niang's reply is only one, that is, 'The xx post you made was not authorized by the original author, so it was deleted, please forgive me.'" 'Excuse me, when do you need the authorization of the original author?' So some people don't believe in evil and continue to post today's latest updated chapters, but they find that they can't pass it on anyway, and they can't even succeed in hand-fighting, so they can only give up in the end.

So they had to search other websites to watch the latest chapters. They thought that there had been another period of crackdown, and that, based on past experience, it would return to normal in a few days. But instead of getting as good as they thought, things got worse.

First of all, the political axe came forward, emphasizing the protection of intellectual property rights, cracking down on all kinds of online piracy, and returning the Internet to a clear mind. But everyone doesn't take him seriously at all, this kind of slogan is shouted every year, and in the end there is no result. But what happened next was a surprise to them.

The first is that the websites they used to go to often appeared, and the words 'being revised, can't be browsed normally, please forgive me'. Search on Du Niang, and the websites you click on are basically the same, and only a few websites are updated normally.

However, these websites were all eliminated every few days, and there was a lot of news on TV and newspapers about the closure of a certain website for illegally operating infringing products. Only then did they know that this time they were playing for real, and if this situation continued, the era of listening to the latest music, watching the latest movies, and novels for free in the past would be over.

After a while, the government introduced a new intellectual property protection law, which more clearly demonstrated the political axe's determination to combat piracy. Now the Internet is really full of sorrow, everyone is vying to discuss this, and the bad temper directly scolded.

This time the action of the political axe glasses girl is indirectly involved.,A search software she gave,The search power is incomparably stronger than that of Du Niang.。 The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology borrowed this software, so that all the infringing websites were not let go, and all of them were found out. For the new regulations to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is necessary to make everyone understand the consequences of infringement, and the public handling of these infringing websites serves as a warning.

Just when everyone lamented that the Internet was dead, some regular websites began to return to normal, providing some free music and movies, which were rights that major websites paid a certain fee to obtain. After the release of the work for a period of time, those audio-visual companies think that the audience that can afford to consume it has been basically exhausted, and they will sell the work to the website to obtain a certain amount of residual profit.

Of course, there are also the latest works that are released directly on the Internet, but the broadcast fee is relatively high, and only some large websites will do this to attract popularity.

The crackdown on websites has basically come to an end, and now it is mainly a crackdown on some individual behaviors. The practice of cracking down on websites at the beginning but sparing individuals made some people think that they were only targeting websites, so they published some infringing works on some websites with relatively loose management.

These posts were quickly found, and the site's administrators naturally did not admit that they had posted them, but eventually received penalties for lax management. The publisher of the post was found out, held accountable for the violation, and some penalties were imposed depending on the circumstances.

This storm of rights protection caused a big shock on the Internet, but it did not have much impact on the half-house university, and the teachers and students continued to study and work as usual.

Zheng Lu is very satisfied with the effect of rights protection, and now the membership of the Hanzhai University comic station is also increasing day by day, and the number of comics included has also increased from the original 30 to 40, so that more cartoonists can come in. The income of these cartoonists is also growing rapidly, and the highest monthly income is now approaching the 100,000 mark. And cartoonists who have successfully obtained publication have even more hand cramps when they get royalties.

"The athletic meeting? You said that Hantaku University is going to hold a sports day? Aren't you kidding, why haven't I heard that we didn't hold a sports day last year? ”

In the third game development room led by Zheng Lu, everyone was chatting after their work, and the well-informed Song Yue broke the news that Hanzhai University was preparing to hold a sports meeting in the near future. However, Lin Fan didn't believe it, if it was a game conference like last year, it was still possible, but he really hadn't heard of the sports meeting.

"I'm the vice president of the student council, of course I'm better informed than you!"

Song Yue raised her head proudly, the student union has been busy with this matter recently, although it has not yet informed the students, but it has already been decided. It will be announced after the final sports day program is decided.

"Really? I don't really like sports meets, they're all old-fashioned sports, and there's nothing new at all. ”

"Me too, I was expecting last year's game convention, but I'm really disappointed."

Everyone was talking about it, and Song Yue looked at everyone with a mysterious face, but she didn't say anything. Jiang Miao and Song Yue are more familiar with each other, so she knows that this girl is holding on to her, and she will continue to break the news until someone asks her to say it.

"Xiaoyue, don't sell it, let's talk about what is different about this sports meeting!"

Hantaku University has always been unusual, and both the teaching method and other aspects have their own strong surnames. Therefore, Jiang Miao does not think that this sports meeting will be the same as other schools, and there will definitely be some special projects.

"Hmph, you're asking the right person. I don't know the exact project, but I've heard that these projects are different from the usual ones, and all of them are designed by teachers from the game development department. Now Mr. Zheng Lu is probably also thinking about the new movement. ”

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Zheng Lu's personal room, this door has not been opened today, presumably they are bored in it and thinking hard. The door is always open, and Zheng Lusan will come out from time to time and make some suggestions to a certain group.

"I heard that this sports meeting is not only a training for the students, but also a test for the teachers to test their innovation ability. Sport can be based on what is already available, but it has to be changed, and there will be some original sports. ”

New design is a test of people's imagination, and the three major departments of animation, comics and game development all have certain requirements for imagination, so the teachers of these three departments are required to design at least one novel movement. After the sports day, there will also be a student competition, allowing students to rate the most popular sports and the most uninteresting sports.

The last welcoming sports designer is rewarded by a student council, while the most uninteresting sports designer is forced to accept a punishment game proposed by the student council.

"Hahaha, isn't it? Wouldn't it be tragic to play any punishment game? ”

Lin Fan laughed loudly, he fantasized in his heart that if he came up with an idea, he would let the losing teacher play the midnight bell version of the infinite stream game! Hehehe, that's so interesting.

"The reward and punishment games are also designed by the students themselves, and it is estimated that they will be publicly recruited after a while, so if you have any ideas, please write them down quickly."

"So what's the reward for an athlete winning? It can't be a perfunctory thing with a useless medal, right? ”

"I don't know, I said that this sports meeting is still being planned, and it has not been perfected."

The students were chatting happily here, and Zheng Lu was also video chatting with some other teachers inside. The sports day lasted for three days, and if each teacher from the three departments came up with a game, the project should be enough.

"Whoever came up with this bad idea, what kind of sports meeting to hold, and we still want to think about the project. Ouch, I'm eager to tear one game into two for game development, where can I have this time to think about it? ”

The head of the cabbage in the upper left corner complained loudly, and the others nodded in agreement. Now everyone's project is in the initial stage, and the new Level 2 students have not yet entered the state, and it is the time to be busy. Although it is good to have time to rest, I am afraid that this heart will be scattered, and it will take a certain amount of time to reunite.

Zheng Lu's face turned a little red when he heard this, this idea was his idea. I happened to hear from students that there are no big gatherings at Hantaku University, so everyone can have a good time, so this idea came up. Originally, he thought that teachers could relax after intense work, but now it seems to have the opposite effect.

"It's all settled, complaining about a fart use, let's quickly think about how to change the movement. I listened to a few students chatting, and the most exciting thing to talk about was the punishment game, and one of them said that if it was winter, it would be nice for us to go for a winter swim! ”

The teachers couldn't help but shudder, this guy is so bad, and the teachers are not from the winter swimming team, who can stand it. Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, it's better to be ready to fight separately, no one knows how these students will deal with themselves, it's better to hurry up and think of a safe game.

……………………………… At this time, a major event happened in the "Super War" game section of the half-house website, which made the crowd boiling now.
