The following is the original text of the open letter:
Why are Yu Zheng and Guo Jingming involved in “plagiarism”
There have been several sensational plagiarism incidents in the film and television industry in recent years.
On April 15, 2014, Qiong YaoWeiboIn an open letter published to the then State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, it reported that Yu Zheng’s “Gong Suo Liancheng” had plagiarized from “Mei Hua Lao” in many plots, and listed several of Yu Zheng’s plagiarism.CaseAs evidence, she urged the leaders of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television to immediately stop broadcasting the new drama “Gong 3”, and urged the audience not to watch the drama.
On April 28, 2015, Qiong Yao formally sued Yu Zheng for infringement, and at the same time investigated the broadcasting unit-Hunan Satellite TV.responsibility. On December 25, the Beijing Third Intermediate People’s Court pronounced the case.The court ruled that “The Chains of the Palace” infringed the “Plum Blossom”Adaptation rights, Yu Zheng was asked to publicly apologize to Qiong Yao, and the five defendants paid a total of 5 million yuan.
Yu Zheng subsequently filed an appeal. The Beijing Higher People’s Court made a judgment after the second instance: the appeal was rejected and the original judgment was upheld.
But Yu Zheng refused to publicly apologize to Qiong Yao, and disappeared after playing. The phone was blocked and the email returned. As of April 2018, according to the official WeChat account of Beijing Courts website “Beijing Law Net Affairs”,Because Yu Zheng (Yu Zheng) refused to fulfill the obligation of “a public apology to Chen Zhe (Qiong Yao) and eliminate the impact” in the court judgment, Chen Zhe applied for enforcement according to law.The Beijing Third Intermediate Court enforced the case on April 26, 2018, and published the main content of the judgment in the “Legal System Daily”, and the required expenses were borne by the remaining charge.
Let’s look at the sensational “China’s No. 1 Copyright Case” in 2003-the plagiarism case of Zhuang Yu against Guo Jingming. In 2003, the up-and-coming young writer Guo Jingming became popular with his book “How Many Flowers and Falling in a Dream”, Guo Jingming is from Sichuan, but in his “How Many Flowers and Falling in a Dream”, the protagonist is all a Beijing film.
In December 2003, Zhuang Yu claimed that the book “Knowing How Many Flowers and Falling in Dreams” had plagiarized his “Circle Inside and Outside”. The case has not yet started, which caused an uproar.
A year later, in December 2004, Guo Jingming lost the first instance and immediately appealed. At the same time, he stated that he had never had any out-of-court contact with Zhuang Yu, and he did not consider reconciliation. On May 22, 2006, the Beijing Higher People’s Court made a final judgment and rejected Guo Jingming’s appeal.The verdict that Guo Jingming and the publisher pay Zhuang Yu 200,000 yuan for economic losses and 10,000 yuan for spiritual comfortAt the same time, Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House and Beijing Book Building were also sentenced to stop publishing,Sales“How much do you know about the flowers in your dreams”. The final judgment also requires Guo Jingming and the publishing house to apologize publicly in the “China Youth Daily” within 15 days.
But Guo Jingming also refused to apologize. Later, the court had to enforce enforcement.
In 2019 and 2020, Guo Jingming has become a mentor of the hit variety show “Actors Please Take Your Place”, and Yu Zheng has become a mentor of the variety show “I Am an Actor”.
The Daily Economic News earlier this yearstatisticsSince 2014, nearly 15 popular film and television dramas have sparked the dispute of “plagiarism”. “Zhen Huan”, “Langya Bang”, “Flower Thousand Bone”, “Splendid Weiyang”, “Sansheng III Shili Peach Blossom”, “Chu Qiao Chuan”, etc., have all been caught in the suspected plagiarism infringement of the original works.
In 2019, 60 screenwriters raised funds to help network writers in the class-action “Splendid Weiyang” Zhou Jing case. The court awarded 604,000 yuan in compensation and a public apology.
Very few people can be sentenced to compensation for plagiarism like “Splendid Weiyang”. On the one hand, with the rapid development of online literature, the homogeneity of works is serious. Many works of the same type are very similar in story routines and plots. This makes it very difficult to define many “plagiarism”, and the process of definition is very complicated and costly. Time and effort.
At that time, Yu Fei, a veteran in the field of plagiarism identification, said bluntly: “I have long been discouraged. Plagiarism identification not only requires a lot of time and energy, but the key is to be misunderstood, blamed, and criticized. There are very few people who act, and even the original sins of plagiarism, Yu Zheng and Guo Jingming, have not been solved. What’s more, no one really cares about this chaos in the industry. The’anti-plagiarism’ industry is basically dead. Up.”
