Some media found photos of infringing photographers on Chen Kun. According to the enterprise investigation, Chen Kun was convicted of photo infringement, and the judgment has been issued, requiring Chen Kun to issue an apology statement on social platforms, compensate 80 yuan for economic losses, and pay 25 10 yuan (lawyer's fees and certificate storage fees) for rights protection. It turned out that Chen Kun took a picture of the sky on the social platform without authorization, and got a lot of praise, even many people thought it was his work. However, Chen Kun was later sued for infringement by the photographer of this picture "The Moon is Like a Dream". Maybe Chen Kun didn't think too much when he sent it. He only sent it out because he thought it looked good.

Jimmy Lin bought the photo of the defendant in Tu Tu for ps, because it violated a photographer's right of signature, protection of the integrity of the work, modification and information network dissemination. In the end, Beijing Haidian Court ruled that Jimmy Lin made a statement at the top of Weibo's homepage for 72 hours in a row, apologizing to the plaintiff, and compensating him for economic losses of 300,000 yuan, reasonable expenses such as lawyer's fees of 40,000 yuan and notary fees of 5,000 yuan, totaling 345,000 yuan.

No matter Jimmy Lin or Chen Kun, after they were convicted of infringement, many netizens said that this may be because photographers are touching porcelain and rubbing their enthusiasm for artists to become famous. Of course, many netizens think that public figures should pay more attention to copyright awareness. Not to mention how famous people are, Snail Na thinks it is normal for photographers to take up legal weapons to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests. Compared with the so-called money and fame, the creator obviously wants to shoulder certain social responsibilities and humanistic spirit. It is said that the works created are like their own children, so what is wrong with being a creator who wants to protect the parents of children? Nowadays, more and more people use online maps. Because many websites do not indicate the original author, many people who use pictures do not know who the original author is. So why don't original artists come out to defend their rights after their pictures are used by artists? It never occurred to everyone that maybe the original creator didn't know about it? I still remember that CCTV released big data on copyright protection, saying that more than 80% of creators were unaware of the infringement of their works, and even fewer people embarked on the road of rights protection.

However, as long as creators realize that their works have been infringed and have the ability to defend their rights, they usually will not give up suing infringers or enterprises. There are too many such things, not to mention celebrities and rich people like Chen Kun and Jimmy Lin. Even TV stations should compensate for their own infringement once they use other people's pictures without permission. Therefore, no matter how big your wrist is, even if you are arrogant in state-owned enterprises and central enterprises, you need to pay special attention to the following issues when using photographic works.
