Guo Jingming said in his apology that he would pay Zhuang Yu the royalties from the plagiarized work, but Zhuang Yu kicked the ball back and said she might as well set up an anti-plagiarism fund, which is her right, and what I’m about to say doesn’t specifically point to this choice.
The Confucius’ student Zi Lu saved a drowning man in the state of Lu, and the rescued man thanked Zi Lu by giving him a cow, which he took home with him.
Confucianism is generally a rather modest ideology, but this allusion is so far ahead of its time that one can see a hint of modern economics. Confucius agrees that one should be justified in accepting rewards for doing good deeds, and if one resists rewards in order to establish an unrequited persona, it will have a bad effect and make others less willing to take the risk of doing good deeds to save others.
In the long years of struggle with plagiarism, “you are not just for money?” has been used to censure the rights defenders of a sophomoric reasoning, and many rights defenders for self-protection, but also had to make a gesture, preemptively said I fight the lawsuit is to get a statement, you pay the money I do not want a penny, how much I donate.
Qiong Yao’s lawsuit against Yu Zheng “Gong Lock Lian Cheng” won the case, the compensation money donated to the public welfare fund, “Qiao Chu Chu” after the first trial ruled that plagiarism was established, Xiao Ruiser is also the first position to donate all the money, even you certainly have never heard of, a local official in Guizhou amateur like to write poetry Zhao Xuefeng, after finding his poetry was plagiarized to court, and finally did not dare to take a mere 30,000 yuan compensation, instead of funding the hometown essay contest.
This is abnormal.
Money is the main reward for the act of creation, you copied my stuff, both earned fame and profit, and then in turn forced me to play a role of money as dirt, which is essentially moral bondage, so that everyone accepts the fait accompli that the act of defending rights is not profitable except for the pursuit of justice, and ultimately indirectly suppress many potential want to seek the interests of justice.
Why? What’s wrong with accusing you of plagiarism just for money? You are only allowed to make a lot of money and not let me recover my financial losses?
Besides, you can go to the website of Chinese court documents to see the cases related to copyright plagiarism, and the percentage of plaintiffs who can win the lawsuit is very low, because from evidence to quantitative and then to judgment, it is very difficult to make a final decision through legal provisions.
In short, it is difficult to win a lawsuit, and even if you win, you can’t pay much money, and even the compensation money is hot to hold, and the layers of funnel sieve down, which is bound to make later creators daunted.
So I’m actually looking forward to seeing a public case against a plagiarist to let the defendant really pay out the amount that makes him feel the pain, and then this large sum of money was accepted by the plaintiff frankly, whether it is used to eat and drink every day or to buy those expensive goods to please themselves, I hope that such a result is a normalized, we are happy to see the results.
