Chapter 679 Accidentally Make History
In the final analysis, intellectual property issues are still limited by the times. It is definitely hopeless for Chang Haonan and the three of them to just think about it.
Hence, Chang Haonan simply was not prepared to dwell on this issue for too long.
“What Professor Yang said does make sense.”
After thinking for a moment, he made a decision:
“However, dealing with the piracy problem is like Dayu's flood control. It not only needs to be blocked, but also needs to be dredged, so we are prepared with both hands.”
"The first is, as Professor Yang said, to scare off a few outliers every once in a while. Of course, the main focus is to pick on those involving relatively large sums of money and serious circumstances, such as those who secretly use our software and can't do anything in a year. There is no need to kill all those who are really self-employed with a few businesses, just think of it as a contribution to marketing. "
"Second, from our group's own perspective, we also need to provide better services to genuine users, such as business training and technical guidance, including the numerical calculation business department. I see that the number of orders received has skyrocketed in recent months, and it can also Consider giving priority to requests from users who have purchased genuine software.”
These two items are basically the answers for commercial software operations.
As long as the service is good, a considerable number of customers will still be willing to pay.
Of course, at this moment, the idea of "selling software is essentially selling services" is still somewhat fresh to people.
Since Torch Group was able to compile several language versions of the user agreement before, it must have a team in the legal department.
The latter couldn't help but shake his head:
“Mr. Chang, it's not just me.”
But when he heard the second half of what Yang Huimei said, he suddenly remembered a joke he had heard before he was reborn.
However, the wave just now had already raised the shock threshold of the other two people a bit high, so now they only showed a little bit of strangeness, and noted the second item mentioned by Chang Haonan in the notebook, and did not Too much of a surprise.
It was indeed completely beyond Chang Haonan's expectation to make such a big noise.
Chang Haonan waved his hand:
“Our group even has two people in the office. There are currently five people in the legal department, which is already the department with the largest number of administrative staff. We just need to recruit a few more.”
Unexpectedly, Yang Huimei, who was not directly involved in the whole process, was more interested.
Now that we have to compete with others in court, in Yang Huimei's view, we must have more manpower.
“It is estimated that business and law professors all over the world are now paying close attention to the follow-up development of this matter. Even hundreds of papers related to the incident have been written..."
“woc…has such a big impact?”
For Yang Huimei, the service aspect must be the responsibility of the technical department. As a layman, she does not need to intervene, so what she can do should be the legal aspect.
“It doesn't need to be expanded too much...”
Yang Huimei's movements stagnated:
"Mr. Chang, a lawsuit involving a commercial dispute like this is different from an ordinary personal lawsuit. It doesn't take one lawyer to handle it from beginning to end. Generally, a team of lawyers is needed...just like last year's NSK fraud case. Procedure, both sides have hired legal teams of dozens of people..."
Chang Haonan was a little surprised.
Although he handled this matter by himself, after confirming that the Japanese companies in Europe had been firmly entombed, he did not spend any extra energy on it.
But because it was just some clerical work before, the scale was not large.
Not only that, but also proficient in the laws of many countries.
A doctoral student has studied the various favorable factors after Britain joins the European Union for five years, with clear organization and strict logic.
“Have you been paying attention to the follow-up of this matter?”
"Well…"
“Then…in this case, after we go back today, we will start preparing to recruit people and expand the size of the legal department?
But before his graduation defense, Britain left the European Union.
“I wonder if there will be some unlucky graduate students studying Japanese business management who will be tricked by me...”
Chang Haonan's low voice to himself was still heard by the other two, and the room was suddenly filled with happy air...
After a moment, Yang Huimei put away her smile and continued to explain:
"In short, since the 1980s, Japanese companies have had a relatively large influence around the world, especially in North America. Now, although Japan's economy is slightly in decline, most people are still optimistic that they can restart rapid growth in the new century. "
Chang Haonan almost stopped when he heard this, but he also knew that it was normal to have this view without opening his eyes, so he did not interrupt Yang Huimei, but allowed the latter to continue:
"As a result, when this incident happened last year, it directly affected the world, especially developed countries' views on Japan's industrial prospects. For example, among the companies involved, the stocks of the most serious ones fell to less than one-third of their original value. And the recovery is very slow. The most pessimistic expectation is that Japan's GDP growth rate this year may be even lower than last year's -1.3%..."
In the original timeline, several major fraud incidents broke out in the early 21st century, but they were basically isolated cases and the scope of their impact was relatively small. By the time it was later widely exposed, Japan's economy was already on the verge of collapse. There were too many lice but it was not itchy, so it could only be regarded as the icing on the cake.
Now he has detonated this big thunder in the late 1990s...
I always feel like I accidentally made history.
After all, in the eyes of people of this era, the plot is actually "the signs of recovery that Japan's economy had already shown were directly interrupted due to a series of fraud and default issues, so it returned to a period of recession."
“I wonder if Nobuo Ikeda would add this paragraph if he wrote "The Lost Twenty Years" in this timeline..."
Chang Haonan thought to himself.
But after thinking about it, I felt that there was no need to wait for Nobuo Ikeda to write this book.
After all, in this life, China's GDP may not surpass Japan's until 2010.
So the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can completely reverse the situation and take the initiative to spend money to find a Japanese writer to write a book, so as to cultivate a group of reflective monsters for the other side...
Although this part that got sidetracked in the middle was a bit fun, after all, the business was not finished yet, so Yang Huimei quickly returned to the previous topic:
"Anyway, although we probably won't fight a lawsuit of this size and level, even if we just perform a show of killing chickens to scare monkeys, we will definitely need manpower."
What she said actually made sense, but it was obvious that she had misjudged Chang Haonan's current energy.
“We don't need to put on a show to scare the monkeys. The Ministry of Justice only needs to find the target accurately and collect some preliminary evidence.”
Chang Haonan replied:
“As for the real hands-on part...please ask the public security system to take action, and conduct a special operation to combat intellectual property infringement from time to time, and that's it.”
ifier
Yang Huimei, who originally thought her boss was a bit soft-hearted, was immediately dumbfounded:
“Can this still happen?”
She just thought that if the other party loses the lawsuit, she can pay a lot of money. In the end, Chang Haonan wanted to let the other party lose the lawsuit and just go in and use the sewing machine...
This deterrence ability is really maxed out.
Chang Haonanxin said that you don't know how a certain penguin will resist game cheats many years later. I also learned this from future generations.
Of course I can't say this, so I can only treat it as my own original work:
“Protecting intellectual property rights should be an official action. It would be thankless to do it by ourselves, so we still have to cooperate with comrades in the judicial organs. This can be regarded as our contribution to the construction of the rule of law..."
Yang Huimei opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, she just nodded:
“I understand, let's wait until there is a need. However, I have never done this job before, so I may need your guidance for the first time...”
Although she thinks she is well-informed, she has never experienced this attitude before—
Despite what Chang Haonan said, it is actually impossible for an ordinary individual, or even an ordinary company, to have the judicial system arrange a special operation to bring justice to you.
But if you think about it carefully, Torch Group is definitely not an ordinary enterprise now, so it is normal to be treated a little bit specially.
"Okay, if there are no other questions, let's do this for now. I have a signing ceremony to attend tomorrow, TORCH Multiphysics, and the release of Dawn 2000T. You two will follow me more. If you have any difficult decisions, please contact me. I'm fine."
Chang Haonan saw that the other two people were no longer talking. He also closed the notebook in front of him that was just a prop and had nothing written on it. He looked at Song Jingming on the other side:
“Also, Director Song?”
Song Jingming was originally immersed in the shock of "Why didn't I know our company was so powerful?", but he came back to his senses when he heard his name:
“I'm here, Mr. Chang.”
“Help me get the agreement template to be used tomorrow. This matter is urgent and cannot be delayed.”
Chang Haonan said.
The cooperation agreement he is going to sign tomorrow is naturally an agreement he had made with Wu Yifan before, asking the latter to recruit people from Ermao in the form of labor dispatch.
Originally, there was no need to be so anxious, but it is already late February, and Eastern Europe will soon enter a nightmare-level turbulence period.
For the Transcarpathian-Satu Mare smuggling route, there is only a window of about a week left if it wants to be transported by road...
