G.E.M. is a famous pop singer in Chinese mainland. Her music works are very popular and deeply loved by fans. Recently, however, G.E.M. was sued for violating the right to portrait of hummingbirds.

Hummingbird is a well-known photography company in China, focusing on providing high-quality photography services.

Hummingbird Company was angry with G.E.M.'s behavior, so it decided to take legal action. Here are the steps taken by Hummingbird Company:

1. Collecting evidence: Hummingbird Company first collected photos and related materials released by G.E.M., and kept the evidence.

2. Contact a lawyer: Hummingbird Company contacted a professional lawyer and provided relevant evidence to the lawyer.

3. Sue G.E.M.: After analysis and judgment by lawyers, Hummingbird Company decided to file a lawsuit against G.E.M., demanding that G.E.M. stop infringing on Hummingbird Company's portrait rights and compensate the corresponding economic losses.

Legal dispute

G.E.M.'s behavior caused a legal dispute. Hummingbird Company thinks that G.E.M.'s behavior infringes the company's portrait right, so it demands that G.E.M. stop the infringement and compensate the economic losses. On the other hand, G.E.M. believes that she has not violated any laws and regulations. She believes that this photo was taken by herself and does not need the authorization of Hummingbird Company.

In this context, the two sides launched a heated legal debate. Hummingbird Company believes that G.E.M.'s behavior has constituted infringement, because G.E.M. has infringed Hummingbird Company's portrait right by posting the photos taken by Hummingbird Company to his social media account without the authorization of Hummingbird Company. G.E.M., on the other hand, thinks that he has not violated any laws and regulations, because this photo was taken by himself and did not use the photo of Hummingbird Company.
