In her previous life, her eldest brother died early, her second sister went blind due to illness, her third brother became autistic, and she herself lived a life of poverty and hardship, scavenging...
When Zhou Xianglin was about to go to school, he gave Zhu Hang a passbook and said, "Here is 50,000 yuan. If it's not enough, come to me for more."
Zhu Hang nodded, "Okay!"
Xiao Chunmei happily told Zhou Xiang that her father agreed to let her go back to Zhou's house with Zhou Xiang at noon.
"Then start next Monday and come back with me!"
"good!"
When school was over, Xiao Chunmei was surprised to see Li Li missing. "Where's Li Li?"
Zhou Xiang shook his head, "Don't pay attention to her, she's throwing a tantrum again."
"oh!"
After returning home, Zhou Xiang told his third brother, "Third brother, starting from next Monday, a classmate of mine will go home with me for lunch and study, and then go back to school together in the afternoon."
Zhou Hua's eyes sparkled, "That's great, sister is amazing, thank you!"
"You are welcome."
Zhou's mother gave her little girl a thumbs up.
"Mom, prepare the gifts tomorrow. On Sunday, we'll go visit Teacher Mao's house. Big brother has to go study."
Mother Zhou nodded. "Yeah! I've been busy these past few days, but now I'm finally settling down. It's time to go visit him. I haven't been since the New Year!"
On Saturday afternoon, Zhou Xiang finally remembered to get the enlarged photos.
When he arrived at the photo studio and looked at the photos in the window by the door, Zhou Xiang's face changed slightly.
"Boss, where's my photo?"
"Here."
Kong Lingpeng took out several large photos.
Zhou Xiang took a look and found that the number matched the photo, so he put it back into the bag. Zhou Xiang then began to check the negatives in the small paper bag, and the negatives also matched.
"Boss, who's in the big photo in the window outside?"
Kong Lingpeng paused, then said as if suddenly realizing something: "I saw this photo of yours, and it turned out very well when enlarged, so I printed an extra one and put it outside as a sample."
Zhou Xiang originally wanted to talk to him nicely, but he didn't expect him to act as if it was a matter of course.
"Haha, you can develop my negatives as many times as you want? You can put my image out there for others to see. Who gave you the right? My things and my image belong to me. Do you understand?"
In this damn era, ordinary people don’t understand anything about rights.
"Hey! You kid, I printed out an extra one and I didn't ask you to pay for it."
"Okay! That's great. Now, let me put it simply. Are you planning to attract customers by putting my photo outside?"
Kong Lingpeng nodded.
"So, if you know how to advertise, why don't you know how to pay for advertising?"
"Haha, I develop my own photos and have my own window display, so why should I pay for advertising?"
Zhou Xiang threw the bag in his hand onto the counter. "But, that photo is of me. You used my appearance for advertising without my consent. You used my film and my appearance without permission. I can sue you. Do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it."
"I'm saying all this out of consideration for my mother's classmates. If you don't change, then you just wait."
"Okay, I'll wait. I still don't believe that I can't develop a photo myself."
"good!"
Zhou wanted to leave with the bag, but Kong Lingpeng stopped her. "Hey! I haven't paid you yet! After all this talk, you just want to refuse to pay me?"
The crowd that was attracted to watch the fun actually believed what he said.
Many people were pointing fingers.
"That's right, what the little girl said is totally irrational. They developed a photo themselves and used their own window display. Why would they pay for advertising? Are they crazy about money?"
"Yeah! Boss, you did the right thing."
"Yeah, what's wrong with developing a photo? I only develop it because it looks good. I want this opportunity too!"
Zhou Xiang turned around, pulled out a handful of money, and slapped it on the counter. "Let's settle the bill! How many photos did I take? How much did it cost? Others may not know, but don't you?"
Haha, you want to take advantage of public opinion? I haven't even measured how thick my skin is.
When the crowd saw the little girl take out a handful of money, the chattering stopped immediately.
Kong Lingpeng also frowned slightly. This girl is not easy to deal with!
He took the money he was supposed to collect and pushed the rest back to Zhou Xiang.
"Have you taken enough?" Zhou Xiang asked.
"That's enough."
"Can I leave now?"
"Little girl, can we talk alone?"
Zhou Xiang shook his head. "I gave you a chance before, but you didn't take it. Not only did you act as if it was your right, you even tried to exploit public opinion. I'm telling you, it's too late."
"So what are you going to do?"
"I have no plans. I only invite people who can make the decision for me."
Seeing that she spoke so confidently, Kong Lingpeng felt a little guilty, "How about I take the photos back?"
"A thief stole something from you and gave it back to you. Would you be willing?"
Kong Lingpeng was annoyed by her words, "Why are you so stubborn, kid? Fine, whatever you want, I'll keep you company."
"I hope you can stick with me till the end."
Ren Dingxiang was developing photos in the darkroom and didn't pay attention to the noise outside.
When she finished her work and came out, she heard the last conversation between the two people and quickly grabbed Zhou Xiang, "Son, your mother and I have been classmates for more than ten years. If you have anything to say, please talk to us properly. Don't ruin our friendship."
Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Okay! For my mother's sake, I'll give you a chance. I'll also give you some scientific knowledge. Don't be so self-righteous."
The onlookers were reluctant to leave and wanted to hear why.
Kong Lingpeng couldn't get rid of them, so he could only let them fill the small lobby of the photo studio.
Ren Dingxiang brought a stool and asked Zhou Xiang to sit down. "Okay! Sit down and tell us where we went wrong."
"There's a provision in the civil code called personal rights. Everything a person has belongs to him. I'm talking about things you can understand, like your life and body, as well as honor and reputation. These all fall under personal rights.
If someone harms you physically or physically, you know to report it. If someone else steals your honor, you'll feel angry and want to punish them. Similarly, my appearance is part of my body; this is called the right to my image.
Using someone else's face photo for profit without their consent is called infringement of their portrait rights.
In particular, your photo studio is infringing on the rights of others by arbitrarily using their negatives without their consent."
The onlookers started talking.
No one has ever heard of personal rights, portrait rights, and is it illegal for a photo studio to develop photos?
Kong Lingpeng asked the question on everyone's mind, "So I can't develop photos for others?"
"Look, you're taking my words out of context. I'm talking about using someone else's negatives without their consent. You should only develop as many copies as they request. If you accidentally develop too many, it's best to destroy them before they leave the darkroom.
If you like my photos and think they have a promotional effect and want to display them to attract customers, you must find me, discuss it with me, sign an agreement, and pay the fees before you can print and display my photos.
