"Lawyer Shu, what's going on with this report?" It was Wen Jian. She pointed to an intellectual property report on the screen. The signature on the report was Shu Tinglan's name.
This is an early robot product of Sunprei Intelligent. It is mainly used in agriculture. For example, it can help farmers pick tea, grapes, strawberries, etc. It was jointly developed by Sunprei and a certain academy of sciences in the past few years. This robot
The function is very common and there is no innovation, but its appearance is the first of its kind at that time, breaking through the bulkiness and immutability of traditional machinery. This appearance is an animal-like design, and it can walk flexibly in various crop fields.
However, because the robot's grasping function is not precise enough and its speed is slow, it has not been put into large-scale production.
According to the report, Shu Tinglan is responsible for the appearance design, that is, who owns the design copyright of the animal-like design?
Shu Tinglan read the detailed contract at that time. In the cooperation between Sunprei Intelligent Company and a certain academy of sciences, all patents, copyrights, etc., automatically belong to Sunprei Intelligent Company, so the copyright is very clear.
She stood up and explained the same thing. She was very sure that the contract she had checked showed that there was no problem with the design copyright of this product.
After listening to her explanation, Wen Jian sneered and switched the projection screen to another screen, which was the resume of a designer, Wang Cheng.
"Lawyer Shu might as well learn more about our industry. The appearance designer of the Shengprei Intelligent product is Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng has registered a personal trademark. As long as the design comes from him, all the copyrights belong to him personally, and no company can arbitrarily
use."
The implication is that Sunprei Intelligent cooperated with a certain Academy of Sciences, but the designer was hired by the Academy of Sciences, Wang Cheng, and the copyright was in the hands of Wang Cheng, and the Academy of Sciences was not the copyright owner.
If Zhuoyuan Technology acquires Sunprei Intelligent, it will need to pay a separate fee to Wangcheng for the copyright purchase of this product.
This was not reflected in Shu Tinglan’s report. It was indeed a mistake. After all, it was due to a lack of experience related to intellectual property rights.
"Lawyer Shu, this is a very low-level mistake. It makes me doubt whether the due diligence report you handed over is accurate and professional." Wen Jian's attack on her in public was merciless.
.
Shu Tinglan also plays a responsible role in the workplace, saying: "I will be responsible for all my reports."
At this time Zhou Ming also spoke: "Mr. Wen, regarding the design copyright issue of this product, I have studied the contract. This is a cooperation between the Academy of Sciences and Wangcheng. The Academy of Sciences did not mention it when it cooperated with Shengprei Intelligent, let alone reflect it.
Regarding the cooperation contract, if there is a design copyright dispute, it is a dispute between the Academy of Sciences and Wangcheng. It has nothing to do with Sunprei Intelligence itself, let alone Zhuoyuan Technology."
After all, Zhou Ming had rich experience. After sitting down, he whispered in Shu Tinglan's ear: "Don't admit any mistakes. You did the right thing."
Shu Tinglan felt grateful. According to logic and regulations, she was indeed right. It's just that she was a person who strived for perfection in her work. She didn't discover the existence of Wangcheng. She felt a little frustrated, and then she would naturally reflect on it.
