Chapter 177 - Shared Copyright? No, it's the gunner!
In the auditorium.
"This is really a morning drama heroine!"
Gu Meimen, who had taken all of Mao Lilan's actions in his eyes just now, couldn't help but smash his tongue.
"Dare to do it in court, is this something that ordinary people can do?"
"I think she's doing a great job."
Xiao Wai's eyes on the side flashed, and he looked relieved.
Gu Meimen turned his head to look at her: "What's the awesome?" For the kind of thing she just did, the judge didn't kick her out, and I thought she had collected the money. β
Xiao Ai smiled slightly: "Don't you think what she said just now is great?" β
"Hehe, it looks pretty good, it's like a stupid thing that the heroine of a morning drama can do with her brain."
Gu Meimen sneered.
"With her more serious personality, I'm afraid that there will be a big disaster in the legal profession in the future."
In court.
After returning to your seat in Maoliland.
The judge struck the hammer and asked her a third time: "Does the plaintiff have an opinion on the defendant's point of view?" β
The implication is that if you can't produce rebuttal evidence, you can only rule that the plaintiff loses the lawsuit.
"Of course we have the proof!"
Maorilan held its head high.
"In court, I apply to call a new witness!"
The judge perked up and immediately nodded: "Grant the plaintiff's request!" β
Soon, a new witness was brought in.
Seeing the appearance of this witness, Daisuke Torakura, who was in the dock, widened his eyes in surprise and stretched out his hand to him.
"It's you?!"
In the auditorium, Gu Meimen also squinted his eyes.
I saw that the identity of the witness was none other than Daisuke Torakura's student, Toshiya Tado.
Gu Meimen had been to Daisuke Torakura's villa before, and he once had a relationship with him, and it was also this person who led him to open the door.
Toshiya Tando glanced in the direction of the plaintiff's seat.
"I can testify that the agreement signed by Daisuke Torakura with them is all fake!"
"There is a division of co-copyright, which is actually a scam!"
"The real situation, all the copyrights of this book have always been firmly in the hands of Daisuke Torakura himself!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.
Everyone didn't expect that there would be a turn for the better in this matter!
"You, you're talking nonsense!"
Torakura Daisuke was anxious, stood up and roared.
"Defendant, please be silent!"
The judge struck the hammer, then looked at Toshiya Tasoku: "Plaintiff witness, please continue to express your opinion." β
Toshiya Tasoku nodded and said, "The reason why I say this is because the people who have been writing this book are not Daisuke Torakura, nor are they the people he invited......"
There was a pause.
"It's me! The truth is, I've been writing this book for him! β
This news can be described as very exciting.
Suddenly, there was a whisper in the courtroom.
From plagiarism to co-authorship, and then to becoming a gunman ghostwriting, this truth can be described as twists and turns.
"You talk nonsense! This book was not written by you at all! β
At this time, Torakura Daisuke, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he seemed to be a little eloquent.
Toshiya Tansoku glanced at him and ignored him.
"In fact, my teacher was exhausted years ago, and he couldn't write anything at all."
Toshiya Tasoku continued to state the facts.
"About five years ago, he hired me to ghostwrite for him, to be his full-time gunman, and to the outside world he claimed that I was his student. And this one, "The Adventures of the Black Cat in Shield", is exactly what I published for him! β
"Hu, nonsense, what evidence do you have!" Daisuke Torakura was furious, "I wrote everything myself, I didn't hire any gunmen at all!" You, you guy, I've always been my student, and you're actually eating inside and out! I, I'm going to sue you for slander, for ruining my reputation! β
"Silence!"
The judge struck the hammer and then asked, "Can the plaintiff produce evidence for the witnesses' arguments?" β
"Absolutely."
Mao Lilan nodded immediately and picked up a document from the table.
It can be seen that although Maolilan did not perform very well at first, there was a lot of nervousness and recklessness.
But as the first lawsuit in her life, she obviously prepared a lot.
"First of all, this is a work published by Daisuke Torakura seven years ago, and after that, we can compare the styles of the two before and after."
Maolilan showed the paper for the crowd to see.
There is a large piece of book title on the paper, arranged in two rows.
"Seven years ago, it was mainly horror and suspense, the theme was mostly vampire themes, and the pen was also very retro."
"After that, the style began to change, and it became a creation with heroic fantasy as the main element, the style is closer to the young people, and the pen is also close to the humor of young people."
"This kind of strong style is poor, and ordinary people can't grasp it."
"And "The Adventure of the Black Cat with the Shield" is obviously the style of the latter, plus the differences in its choice of words and sentences......"
"Above, there is a suspicion of asking the gunman to write it on his behalf!"
Mao Lilan finished speaking in one breath.
She looked up at the judge.
At this time, she had a smile in her pure eyes and confidence, and there were almost no impurities.
The judge nodded and looked at the defendant's seat: "Defendants and their representatives, please give your opinions." β
The defendant's lawyer sighed in his heart and secretly felt that something was wrong.
"It'sβit's just the plaintiff's guess! What conclusive evidence do you have? β
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and pretended to be calm, but his demeanor and demeanor completely lost the confidence he had just had.
"Conclusive evidence, too!"
Mao Lilan gestured slightly to the witness Toshiya Taso.
Toshiya Tadosho took out a contract-style paper from his bosom.
"This is the labor contract I signed with Daisuke Torakura, and it states that I will help him write this article, the relevant matters of "The Adventures of the Shield Black Cat", please ask the judge to take a look."
The clerk took the contract from Toshiya Tado's hand and passed it to the judge.
The judge looked at it and nodded.
This is a labor contract, and it can be confirmed that Toshiya Tadosho was employed by Daisuke Torakura.
The relationship between the parties is an employment relationship, not a joint partnership, and there is no sharing of copyright.
There is also the personal seal of Daisuke Torakura on it, and there will be no fake.
"I don't believe it, I'm going to see it for myself!"
On the defendant's side, Daisuke Torakura suddenly shouted, rushed to the seat of the referee, and snatched the contract from the judge.
After just one glance, he exclaimed, "Your contract is forged, I have never signed such a contract!" β
However, before he could finish speaking, he was rushed up by the judicial police on both sides and pressed his uniform down on the table next to him.
Here, Mao Lilan didn't even look at him.
"In accordance with Article 15 of the Copyright Law of Japan, if a person engaged in the business of a corporation, etc., at the suggestion of a corporation or user, works created in the performance of his duties, and when the corporation, etc. publishes such works in his or her own name, the corporation, etc. shall be deemed to be the author unless otherwise specified in the contract or work regulations at the time of creation."
In the auditorium.
"I didn't expect this to work." Xiao Wai couldn't help but sigh.
What does Maoriland mean by this law?
In general, the original owner of the copyright can only be the author himself.
That is, whoever writes the book has the copyright.
However, the Japanese law adds that if the author is an employee, his work was created for the purpose of his duties, and the work was published in the name of the employer, then the copyright of the work should belong to the employer.
In other words, the copyright is not in the hands of the gunman, but in the hands of the boss.
In other words, if you go here to sue Daisuke Torakura for plagiarism, even if the book was not written by Daisuke Torakura himself, but by the gunman, it would work! Daisuke Torakura will be declared guilty of infringement!
