Writer Chen Yingsong said that most of the more than 300 articles collected by CNKI were prepared to be prosecuted without consent

In an interview with the Yangtze River Daily on December 12, the writer Chen Yingsong said he was ready to sue CNKI, which included more than 300 of his articles.

The Yangtze River Daily's first report on the 7th that "more than 100 articles were included by CNKI without authorization, all the rights protection of ninety professors won the lawsuit and received more than 700,000 yuan in compensation" has aroused widespread concern in recent days. On the 10th, a friend sent Chen Yingsong a news link to Zhao Dexin, an 89-year-old retired professor at Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, who sued CNKI for winning the case and receiving compensation, asking whether his article was also included in CNKI and supporting Chen Yingsong to defend his rights like Professor Zhao.

Chen Yingsong is no stranger to CNKI. Previously, because of the need to compile books, he had looked up critics through CNKI to comment on his own articles, "I am paid to download, one or twenty yuan a piece, and more than 30 yuan a piece." Through CNKI's search, he found that he had more than 300 articles included in CNKI, and most of them were downloaded hundreds of times without his consent.

"The old professor has a total of more than 100 articles included in CNKI, I have more than 300, you say I can't fight (lawsuit)?" How to fight. On the same day, Chen Yingsong sent a circle of friends on WeChat: the old professor sued CNKI and was compensated more than 700,000 yuan, and CNKI included more than 300 articles on me. Who helped me fight this lawsuit?

"There are many authors like the old professor and me, but most people feel troubled and are reluctant to defend their rights." After Chen Yingsong posted a circle of friends on WeChat, a friend soon recommended a lawyer to him. Chen Yingsong told the Yangtze River Daily reporter that the lawyer had contacted him and that he was ready to sue CNKI.

"CNKI included the article on its own platform without the consent of the old professor, which is not what theft is." Chen Yingsong asked CNKI in an interview, the apples planted by others, he took them to his own basket to sell, is this OK? Definitely not. Chen Yingsong was a little angry about this behavior of CNKI, "Every day people pay to download the authors' articles, and CNKI has gained huge benefits, but the authors not only have not received the manuscript fee, but even do not know." Chen Yingsong said that this is a kind of business that has "no profit".

On the evening of the 10th, CNKI Operator "China Academic Journals (CD-ROM Edition)" Electronic Magazine Co., Ltd. publicly responded: Humbly listen to the opinions and suggestions of experts, scholars and publishing institutions in the legal field, strictly implement relevant laws, regulations and policy requirements, and work with the editorial and publishing units of academic journals to face up to problems and solve problems. When interviewed by a number of interviewed experts interviewed by the Yangtze River Daily reporter, they all hoped that CNKI could come up with rectification measures as soon as possible.

Born in 1956, Chen Yingsong is a member of the Plenary Committee of the Chinese Writers Association, a first-class writer, whose novels have won the Lu Xun Literature Award, the China Novella Society Grand Prize, the Novel Monthly, the Novella Anthology, the Novel Selection, the Novel Award, the People's Literature Award, the October Literature Award, the Beijing Literature Award, and other awards, and published more than 100 novels, including "Forest Silence", "Returning the Soul", "Hunter Peak", "Harvesting in the Sky", "Soul Not Guarding the House", "The Village of Aphasia", novels, essays, and poetry.
