Chapter 1386: Chen Jiji's Careful Thoughts
On the second day after Jia Jiafeng and Jia Jiayue complained, Daqian filed a lawsuit with the Huaxia Jianfu Provincial Court, as well as the court in the United States, Chen Jiji's superstar film company, and Chen Jiji himself, suing them for their infringement of Daqian Entertainment and "Princess Huanzhu", demanding that they immediately stop such behavior, and at the same time apologize to Daqian Film and compensate 100 million RMB.
That's not all, Daqian Entertainment also launched a lawsuit against a total of 63 media outlets in Wanwan Province, demanding an apology for their defamation in newspaper articles, and compensation, totaling 200 million RMB.
Because the lawsuit of the Industrial Record Association of the United States has just ended, and the whole incident still has a lot of heat, so when Daqian launched these two lawsuits, the media around the world began to report this time like a shark smelling blood.
Soon, "Princess Huanzhu" and "Huanzhu Gege", two TV series that you knew one party copied the other party as soon as you heard the name, directly became one of the hot news in the world.
Especially in the Chinese mainland and Wanwan Province, it is even hotter.
As soon as the people of China heard that their favorite "Huanzhu Gege" was plagiarized by the shameless writers of Wanwan Province, and they also beat it up, the people of China were all very angry and condemned one after another.
And the media quickly followed up, cheering for Daqian and condemning the unhealthy trend of plagiarism.
Of course, there are some individual voices in these media with attitudes.
For example, "Southern XX" pointed out with a very attitude that Wanwan Province is its own people and relatives, and it is necessary to be affectionate when treating relatives, and it is not possible to sue or something at every turn, which will hinder the overall situation.
If it doesn't work, why are we really plagiarizing?
However, these voices were regarded as farts, and they were all ignored.
The media in Wanwan Province are naturally not to be outdone, they have clamored, saying that Daqian is too much, they are too shameless, and the father of the United States will definitely uphold justice for their good sons.
The speed of Huaxia is very fast, and the trial will be held half a month later, but Chen Jiji did not appear in court, and the superstar company just sent two representatives and a lawyer.
The trial was quick and smooth, and the final judgment won the lawsuit, requiring Superstar Film and Television and Chen Jiji to apologize within the specified time, and at the same time compensate 100,000 RMB for mental losses.
It stands to reason that this is a very fair verdict, because the evidence provided by Daqian is impeccable, first of all, the registration and filing time of the script has been carefully reviewed by the relevant departments, and there can be no mistake.
In addition, Daqian also provided the manuscript of the script, according to the identification of pen and ink, this is indeed the outline of the script written nearly 4 years ago, and the time for the entire script of "Princess Huanzhu" is set in 1993.
And the evidence that the superstar side can provide is only that the time is determined in 1995, and the work is completed, and there is a gap of two years between Daqian's script, which is an insurmountable chain of evidence, so there is nothing wrong with this judgment.
In addition, the first instance only awarded 100,000 yuan in compensation, which is too much different from the 100 million yuan demanded by Daqian.
You must know that according to the evidence provided by Daqian, "Huanzhu Gege" has created a total of about 100 million yuan in revenue from the superstar company in Wanwan, so it is reasonable to ask for compensation like this.
Only 100,000 yuan was sentenced in the first instance, which is quite face-saving, and it does not hurt the muscles and bones, only Chen Jiji needs to apologize.
However, Chen Jiji's side has never had the intention of fulfilling the judgment, and interestingly, Chen Jiji does not seem to have the intention of appealing to the court in Huaxia.
——————————————
"It's useless to appeal in the Huaxia Court, they are all in a gang, how can we all lose, so I don't have to be angry!" In his villa, Chen Jiji said angrily to his husband.
"It's better to appeal, otherwise our assets in the mainland may be frozen!" Ping Xintao said with a wry smile.
"Freeze it, freeze it, it's just 100,000 RMB, they can freeze as much as they like, I'm not wrong, and I didn't copy it, why apologize?" Chen Jiji said angrily.
In all fairness, Chen Jiji is indeed a little wronged, and there is nothing wrong with "Huanzhu Gege" being created by her independently, but now she is accusing of plagiarism, which is very uncomfortable.
But on the other hand, Chen Jiji also knew that Daqian did not plagiarize himself, because when Daqian's script was created, "Huanzhu Gege" was just a simple idea and creativity, brewing in Chen Jiji's mind.
Therefore, Chen Jiji believes that neither of the two sides copied anyone, but the ideas and creativity happened to be similar, and even the name Huanzhu was encountered.
Although such things are rare, it is not impossible to happen, after all, there are often two people who look exactly the same in Chen Jiji's pen, and it is very normal for stories to bump into each other occasionally.
In fact, all the way to this point, Chen Jiji has not made any mistakes, and Boss Jia will not blame "Huanzhu Gege" because of guilt in his heart, and the two sides could have gotten along amicably.
But the bad thing is that in the face of the reversal of black and white by Wanwan media, Chen Jiji did nothing and said nothing, which is aiding and abetting.
Since Chen Jiji knows in his heart that no one has plagiarized anyone, when the media begins to report this matter, Chen Jiji should take the initiative to clarify the situation and explain that there is no plagiarism problem.
In fact, Chen Jiji's old fair Xintao also suggested this at the time.
But Chen Jiji refused, in her words, it is the clear who clears itself, and the turbid ones are turbid, and there is no need to clarify anything.
In fact, Ping Xintao understands that his stepwife is notoriously cautious, even if the two TV series are naturally similar, she doesn't want to have a TV series with the same story as hers, so it is best to plagiarize "Princess Huanzhu" with a stick.
In addition, there is a more important reason, that is, because of "Huanzhu Gege", the release of "Huanzhu Gege" in the mainland failed.
Before the superstar company's TV series, they basically entered the mainland market and obtained huge income, even much higher than the local market of Wanwan, after all, the mainland at that time lacked TV dramas like this, the audience was very buying, advertisers were also very buying, and TV stations were even more convinced.
But this time, there is "Princess Huanzhu", and the entire Huaxia TV station knows that "Huanzhu Gege" is Daqian's TV series, who dares to offend Daqian, otherwise Daqian will give an order, and the stars and products of the entire Daqian Entertainment will be completely insulated from this TV station, then this TV station will basically fall.
Therefore, the TV station was very simple, and without Daqian opening his mouth, he directly refused to introduce "Huanzhu Gege".
Even Nanhu TV, which was quite moved, finally chose to give up because it was talking to Daqian about the first round of broadcasting rights of "Meteor Garden".
This made it impossible for "Huanzhu Gege" to enter the mainland market at all, and the superstar lost tens of millions of income, which made Chen Jiji hate "Huanzhu Gege" very much.
This is nothing, on the other hand, as the light and shadow supermarket gradually occupied the entire mainland, Fusang, and even the markets of rice country and Wanwan Province, Chen Jiji found that the videotapes and VCDs of his TV series could not be sold.
Because he refused to sign a contract with Light and Shadow Supermarket, all the film and television works of Superstar could not land on Light and Shadow Supermarket, the only genuine VCD channel provider all over the world.
This has led to the loss of 80% of the VCD market for superstar film and television works, although there are still some individual VCD rental stores that can sell superstar VCD, but these individual stores basically sell pirated VCD.
After all, the price difference between genuine and pirated copies is more than 4 times, and it is strange that those small individual stores will sell genuine copies.
To sum up, the emergence of Daqian has made superstar film and television lose money since 96, and it is getting bigger and bigger year by year, this year it has reached the point of breaking the muscles and bones, Chen Jiji simply hates Daqian, she will be willing to take the initiative to clarify that there is a ghost.
