Can supermarkets randomly display "Gong Xi Fa Cai"?
"Gong Xi Fa Cai" brings the flavor of the New Year to supermarkets of all sizes. However, when supermarkets display "Gong Xi Fa Cai", they also need to be careful not to infringe.
Zhao Zhanzhan, a lawyer at Beijing Jiawei Law Firm, said that if supermarkets, shopping malls, shopping malls, etc. play the song "Gong Xi Fa Cai" as background music in their business premises without the rights holder's permission, it is an infringement of the rights holder's rights to the work. performance rights and does not qualify as fair use.
Zhao Zhan pointed out that the determination of copyright infringement does not require profit-making. That is to say, even if it is not for profit, as long as it does not meet the scope of fair use, it still constitutes infringement.
If you buy a genuine CD of "Gong Xi Fa Cai" in a supermarket and then play the genuine CD in the supermarket, is it an infringement?
Zhao Zhanzhan said that the performance right in copyright includes two forms, one is live performance, and the other is mechanical performance (using mechanical equipment to publicly broadcast the work). Any public broadcast without the authorization of the copyright owner infringes the performance rights. Supermarkets that use CDs to publicly play genuine songs are considered mechanical performances.
