Zhang Yimou's new film "return" since the release has become a "phenomenon-class" film, the fastest to achieve the box-office breaking billion of the domestic art film. Up to now, the film box office accumulated 270 million yuan, the industry forecast it is expected to refresh the domestic film box-office records.

However, the film aggressively at the same time encountered the theft of trouble. A few days ago, Le Vision Network Law director Liu in the "Securities daily" reporter interview, said: "In addition to some small video site piracy, some large video sites are also stolen, we have screenshots as evidence, in order to combat this behavior, we will take legal means to maintain the intellectual property rights. ”

In addition to video sites, the box has become the hardest hit by piracy. Le visual network found that the Millet box is one of them, so far, millet has 300 or so film and television play pirated music. Liu said that some of the piracy of millet, has been a court decision, and some other piracy cases are still under indictment.

$ Millions of a year to fight piracy

It is reported that the "return" for the Music Network Brothers company music video production, the current video network for the film's only information network rights to disseminate the right person. In accordance with the practice of video network, before the release of large tracts, the network will be sent to the major web site Copyright statement, and in the relevant media statement, the purpose is to let the site operators know beforehand, to prevent piracy.

"These sites are still pirated after being notified that their piracy is knowingly committed," he said. "Liu points out. Talking about the investment in combating piracy, Liu told the Securities Daily that at least 5 million yuan a year. "The rights of protection procedures include the issuing of early warning letters, investigation, forensics and litigation." We have a professional team, professional software to monitor. But now the problem is, a play of the rights to spend at least 6 months, or even longer, the final compensation is thousands of to twenty thousand or thirty thousand yuan, it is likely to have no results. ”

As for the loss caused by the theft, Liu said it is difficult to estimate. Generally speaking, when the line movie is offline, the video website that has the right to play the network will charge for a period of time, then it will play for free. Liu admits that during the movie, the piracy of these sites will not only affect the movie box office, but also affect the second stage of the fee playback and free playback of the loss of traffic.

In recent years, the copyright issue of video sites has undergone a process of disorderly competition and gradual regulation, Xu Lei, chairman and founder of the copyright operation expert, Beijing flourishing Sun Culture Communication Co., Ltd. 2009, 347 sites were shut down, including BT download, donkey and other well-known download platform. 2010 began the major video sites have begun to take the path of the legalization, which is related to their capitalization action. By the year 2011, even criminal legislation has been enacted to provide for a criminal offence if piracy benefits more than 50,000 yuan. "At that time, many of the small web site executives were criminal and financial compensation, the recent rapid spread of 260 million yuan high punishment is also one example." ”

"Box" into a pirate-stricken areas

Compared with a few years ago, the video site, "box" has become one of the hardest hit by piracy.

Liu complained that "box" is different from TV and mobile phone, if the content, the box is worthless, selling the box is selling content. The seller shall bear the direct tort liability or the joint tort liability for the piracy. At present, film and television dramas, columns of copyright prices, and some "box" producers are unwilling to pay for content, piracy rampant.

"This includes the millet box, so far, we found that there are about 300 of millet film and television play is pirated music, including millet box, millet forum content." Liu said, among them, "Guanyin Mountain" and other films can be downloaded in the Millet Forum, which has been the Haidian District People's Court of Justice, compensation for 20,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan.

In this regard, "securities daily" reporter call Millet related responsible person, it said: "All the sources of millet are CNTV authorized, is lawful, compliance, for the verdict is not clear." ”

A video site practitioners also complained: "The relevant administrative authorities in the management of video playback is vague, for the ' box ' copyright problem is blank, so there will be a lot of disputes." The phenomenon of piracy is basically adjusted by the justice sector. ”

The above people also pointed out that this kind of copyright issues of the right to defend a major difficulty is to obtain evidence is difficult, the need to arrange a professional notary notarization, and pirated content may be offline or guerrilla, screen only as auxiliary card.
