Two happy net to the court to see who really happy _ Home newspaper _ Daily economic news
Intellectual property lawyer You Yunting believes that the purpose of kaixin001.com's lawsuit is not necessarily to win, but to tell everyone who is the real happy net.
Just when everyone thought Cheng Binghao was busy with "muffled sound to make a fortune" recently, he suddenly on the "right Lord" of the name of the real. Recently, kaixin001.com officially filed a lawsuit with the Second Intermediate People's Court of Beijing to Sue the Happy network (kaixin.com) of Oak Interactive on suspicion of unfair competition, requiring Oak Happy Network to stop using similar website names and make a public apology.
The two websites have a long history of entanglement
Happy network (kaixin001.com) said in the complaint: In addition to the website name, the main part of the network domain name is similar to its, even the service object, service function and the main content of the service are basically similar. Kaixin001 argues that these practices constitute unfair competition.
Yesterday, the mobile phone of Cheng Binhao, CEO of Happy Net, has been unanswered, and the phone of Chen Yizhou, CEO of Thousand Oak Group, has been directly transferred to voice mail. A person in charge of Thousand Oaks Group told the Daily Economic News that the company has not received any news from the court, and colleagues in the legal department are actively contacting and understanding, and will not comment on the matter at present.
The two happy network entanglements have a long history. kaixin001.com (kaixin001.com) was founded by Cheng Binghao, the former CTO of Sina, in March 2008, and has gathered a lot of popularity in a short period of time with small games such as trading slaves and finding parking Spaces, becoming a dark horse emerging in the field of domestic social networks (SNS). At that time, kaixin001.com's domain name vulnerability has been noticed by some people, 9158.com Fu Zhengjun bought kaixin.com at a price of about $35,000, and wanted to buy into Happy Net with a domain name, but Cheng Binghao refused.
Cheng Binghao also rejected Chen Yizhou's acquisition intention. Happy network (kaixin001.com) jump up the speed of the thousand oak Group, which had the largest SNS community network in China at that time, and happy network (kaixin001.com) gathered white-collar workers are obviously more advertising value than college students. In September 2008, Thousand Oak proposed to buy Happy Net (kaixin001.com) failed. In October, thousand oak bought the domain name kaixin.com, also named happy network, a time of two stations and out. With the resources of Thousand Oak Group itself and the "viral" invitation registration method, many domestic users have confused the two happy networks. The feud between the two families was over.
