For several companies suing the s club for loading a logic bomb in the beta version of the Perak Beibei anti-virus software, the Beijing District Court took it more cautiously.

This is not to say how dedicated the judges are, but the people in the capital circle at least know how powerful Fan Ting’s background is. In terms of the strong strength of Fan’s Investment Group, it is better than Microsoft. Too much tougher, how can you carelessly deal with such a company?

Besides, this also involves the influence of Member Van Hyung. If he is offended, his future career will inevitably be affected.

However, up to now, the s club has not raised any strong reactions, and has accepted the court's subpoenas indifferently. The first appearance in court will be held soon, and many people in the Beijing media will come. At the hearing, it is said that the original bystander permit was sold privately by the court at a high price. Now it is a rare ticket, and there are not a few people who spend thousands of yuan to buy the permit.

After Fan Wubing sent Shen Ying back to the Shen family's home in Beijing, he rushed to the s club headquarters building to discuss the matter with his old sister Fan Ting. At the same time, he also summoned the company's royal lawyers to discuss the matter of appearing in court.

"Didn't you say that there is a solution?" Fan Ting asked Fan Wuyao.

"I have the idea, but it is immature, so I need to learn from professionals." Fan Wubing smiled.

In Fan Wubingxian’s case, at least a few points are worth noting. One is that the company simply integrated the logic bomb module into the beta software without knowing it. Download the trial, there seems to be no anti-piracy premise.

The second is the programmer who loaded the logic bomb. The programmer was settled overseas. If it is suspected of being a crime, this is also an overseas crime. What law should be used for investigation, and what legal agency should investigate it, seems to be questionable, at least not. The guilt can be added to the bsp; as for the third, although the logic bomb is loaded in the beta software, the trigger conditions are not set, which means that the logic bomb can never be done, so there can be no victims.

And Fan Wubing also thought of the conditions for counterattack, that is, several rivals. Why did the players quickly grasp this situation under the premise that Pili Beibei Software did not have any logic bombs? It can only show that the other party has been cracking and tracking the company's software.

According to the protection of the Copyright Law, any cracking of other software with commercial purposes is an infringement of the rights of the original author and should be investigated in accordance with the law.

In fact, the current domestic laws on the protection of the software industry are also very incomplete, and the laws on Internet communication are in a mess. For this newly emerging industry, the legal profession is basically at a loss, and there is no profound at all. Understand that, even most legal practitioners did not realize that there will be more and more cases based on the Internet in the future, and there will be fewer and fewer adaptations to the legal provisions, which cannot meet the needs of the actual situation.

After everyone sat together and discussed for a while, they finally came up with a clearer idea. Basically, the lawyers agreed with Fan Wuyi’s several points. Of course, we need to modify the details a little. This is the method of court debate. It’s impossible to get all the hole cards out at the beginning, but they have to be turned out one by one at the necessary moments to achieve the effect of making the opponent unprepared and speechless, so that they can be convincing. , Making the trial beneficial to oneself.

"In fact, the main reason is that Microsoft's actions have been too great recently, and we have done something like this again. It is inevitable that many people will feel that they have to follow Microsoft's example to combat piracy." Fan Ting said to Fan Wuyao.

Fan Wubing rubbed his forehead to express his understanding.

In the most recent period, Microsoft China has been very keen on anti-piracy matters. The purpose is not only to promote the concept of anti-piracy, but more importantly for performance needs. It is understood that many users, especially enterprise users, have decided not to purchase Microsoft e products or switch to bsp; however, some small companies said that the company’s IT management was not standardized before, and many of them were contracted and outsourced. It is also difficult to figure out which software is legally authorized and which are pirated. I have to buy all the authorized software, and only hope to find a better supplier for a discount.

Many companies have also reported that there are many software distributors cooperating with Microsoft, faxing or calling companies to claim that they have obtained your evidence of piracy and want not to prosecute, so how many licenses must be purchased within the time limit? Certificate and so on.

In this regard, a corporate boss complained that this is nonsense. Their company's basic computers are all OEM ind, and office software is self-developed, and the server runs on the system. These software vendors are simply inexplicable. blackmail.

Some people in the industry also said that Microsoft is clearly anti-piracy, but is actually engaged in sales promotion. This intimidation marketing method has long been adopted. Not only Microsoft does this, but many foreign software companies such as desk and be are marketing in China. These marketing methods have been adopted for promotion, but it is generally not carried out directly by software companies, and most of them are handed over to agents to pretend to use the name of software companies.

In this way, when legal or moral hazard arises, software vendors can shirk it completely.

"Our company has also received such similar threats, but I immediately called the police. The other party was already under control at this time and was planning to sue them. I don't rub the sand in my eyes." Fan Ting mentioned this matter. Said when.

Fan Wubing nodded. Fan Investment Group usually pays attention to this kind of things. Therefore, the company’s computers are all equipped with genuine operating systems, and office software is authorized or self-developed. It does not need to be threatened by others. Of course, the main reason for this is that Fan Investment Group is wealthy and does not need to use piracy. Although this can save some money, it is not enough trouble.

Corporate users, naturally, do not need to worry about these funds like individual users, not to mention that a company as large as Fan Investment Group naturally does not need to save money in this regard.

"In fact, I now think that producing anti-virus software is a very troublesome thing. The input and output are completely disproportionate, and there are a large number of pirated users. It is really not worth the loss. If so much investment is used in other areas. , Or even more cost-effective, it won't happen again." Fan Ting suddenly said to Fan Wuyao.

"You don't want your brother-in-law to work too hard?" Fan Wubing replied with a smile.

"It's you, you know it best." Fan Ting stretched out his hand and patted Fan Wuyi, then scratched his head and said, "But what you said makes sense."

After knocking out several lawyers, Fan Wubing made a drink and drank, and asked the old lady if there was any major news about Shanghai recently in China?

Fan Ting looked at Fan Wuyao in confusion, and then replied, "I haven't heard of it?"

"Oh, that's right." Fan Wuyao nodded, feeling clear.

Although I ran to Australia to avoid the limelight because of provoking officialdom in Shanghai, it was not expected that the situation there would be calm. To be true, it is necessary to conduct investigations, collect evidence and deal with it in secret, and the external news will also be low-key. For example, the other party has to leave the job due to physical reasons.

Because of the different national conditions, what Fan Wuyao hopes to see is similar to the lively thing in the United States that allows independent investigators to collect evidence of presidential crimes, which will not happen here.

"What I am most concerned about now is whether we should continue to do anti-virus software? There is also the e-software series, which has a huge investment, but the output is only several times. Facing the overwhelming pirated software, I feel depressed. "Fan Ting said ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Fan Wubing poured a cup of tea for the old lady, and then replied slowly, "My considerations are different from yours. Naturally, I can't just see what I am doing. Benefits. Because of the e, Microsoft's e software is not unique in China. After having competitors, even if they rely on piracy to compete for the market, they must also consider whether it is suitable for Chinese people. It is customary. Some usages and nuances are enough to determine how big the market share is."

"What you mean is that we can also follow Microsoft in this respect and trade piracy for the market?" Fan Ting asked.

"Haha, basically it's almost the same." Fan Wubing said with a smile, "Since they can do it, we can do it too, so let's go for piracy. We are also cultivating market habits, just like the upcoming QQ software. In the same way, we all survive by cultivating market habits. Once the time is right, it will be our harvest time."

In Fan Wubing’s eyes, the antivirus software is still very profitable. At this time, the virus threat is not great. However, with the rapid development of the Internet, everyone does not use a set of genuine antivirus software, which makes it impossible to Effective protection, once it reaches that period, it is obviously the anti-virus software with the largest market share of piracy, and the rewards are the most generous. This is similar to Microsoft's piracy marketing method.
