It is a relatively comprehensive data support. It is specially translated to let everyone understand the domestic copyright situation. I never expected that watching anime online every day would show Japan a copyright loss of 3.8 trillion yen_(:з」∠)_
[Shunwang Animation April 4th News] last week translated an article "China ACG & Doujin Exhibition in the Eyes of Japanese Journalists" for everyone, which aroused everyone's discussion. In the article, the Japanese reporter mentioned China The issue of counterfeit goods and copyright issues is, after all, a matter of family opinion. What we bring this week is a survey conducted by the Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs on China in 2013. The focus is on the issue of copyright infringement of Japanese cultural products in China. It is a relatively comprehensive data support. It is specially translated to let everyone understand the domestic copyright situation. I never expected that watching animations online every day would cause Japan to see a copyright loss of 3.8 trillion yen_(:з」∠)_
Survey description: This survey was commissioned by the Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs and conducted by the Mitsubishi Research Institute in mainland China. Statistical samples were selected from four cities, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Chongqing, where ACG culture is relatively developed. 1,000 respondents in each city were used as network statistics objects, with a total of N=4,000. At the same time, Mitsubishi Research Institute also conducted a literature survey and on-site store visits, and concluded the statistical results. It can be clearly seen that China's acquisition experience rate of Japanese cultural products is the highest among the six countries counted. Characteristics of Japanese cultural product consumption tendency in four Chinese cities (Kitagami Hiroshige). As expected, domestically, Japanese cultural products are mainly obtained through the Internet. The Internet has also become a place where domestic piracy and infringement are rampant.
Each city has its own characteristics, but relatively speaking, the situation in Beijing and Shanghai is better than Guangzhou and Chongqing in terms of genuine awareness.
Simplified Chinese subtitles, high-definition picture quality, and Japanese original sound have become the main requirements of the interviewees for Japanese genuine animation. In terms of price, most domestic people still prefer to obtain it for free. A certain video website has previously reported a monthly fee plan. According to this statistical result, it will be very difficult to implement.
Mitsubishi Research Institute estimates that the annual copyright infringement of Japanese cultural products in the four cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Chongqing is approximately 561.9 billion yen. By amplifying the data obtained from these four cities to the entire mainland of China (Mitsubishi actually starts with the average annual viewing rate of the general city of Chongqing, which consumes less Japanese cultural products among the four cities). The number of Japanese cultural products is used as a data sample to estimate the scale of damage done to Japanese cultural products by netizens across mainland China in a year). Mitsubishi Research Institute gave an astonishing figure: Mainland China causes copyright infringement worth 3.8 trillion yen (more than 220 billion yuan) on Japanese cultural products every year, of which illegal downloads account for the vast majority.
At the end of the investigation report, Mitsubishi made several suggestions to the Japanese government
1. It is difficult for genuine content to enter China compared with pirated content, which is the main reason for such huge copyright infringement.
2 It is necessary to not only crack down on illegal piracy in China, but also develop genuine business in China.
3. Japanese companies set up independent websites, such as video websites, portals, online shopping websites and other websites frequently used by netizens to supply and sell genuine Japanese products. Using a free model for users to make money through advertising or using a membership fee and download charging model. The specific choice of which model requires further research in the future (it must be a free user model, no need to study it)
4 While providing Chinese website operators with genuine Japanese content, we must also hold illegal websites accountable and form a combined strategy, which will have certain results
Translation Postscript
In fact, the conclusion of this report already feels a bit like an afterthought In 2012, before this report was released, Japanese copyright owners began copyright cooperation with domestic video websites. After two years of development, we have seen a very strange phenomenon: domestic video websites are competing for Japanese animation copyrights, but at the same time, pirated BT downloads are still the same. Compared with the Japanese who are rigid in their treatment of contracts, the Chinese side can always find a way to "save the country". On the basis of the humane society, China is and will continue to do so. In this situation where piracy and genuine copies are in conflict, I won't go into details further. That is not an issue that an anime website wants to discuss. Finally, let me make a complaint: Whoever says that you are a traitor for watching Japanese animation, just reply: "Old man." Watching Japanese animation for one year can cost the Japanese 3.8 trillion. What can you do if you watch domestic dramas for one year? "
