[Reporter Wen Yude/Taipei Report] Investigation Bureau Investigator Yu Zhenghuang commissioned a team of lawyers Wu Junda, Zhang Youqi, and Zeng Weikai to sue former Hsinchu Mayor Lin Zhijian for criminal violation of copyright law. Libel.

Zhang Youqi was interviewed and said that because of this case, when Yu's second sister passed away, he did not dare to write his name in the obituary, but Lin Zhijian wrote in the written statement that he was intimidated by us and affected the election. In fact, it was Yu's family life, His work has been deeply affected. Lin Zhijian also said that it is absurd for us to affect his political future.

In this regard, Yu Zhenghuang's lawyers specially proposed an attached table today to compare the two papers. Wu Junda said that according to the attached table, it can be found that there are 33 paragraphs that are almost identical, and we used the National Taiwan University Ethics Association to determine that Lin Zhijian constituted plagiarism. Compare the standard and compare.

Wu Junda further explained that among the 33 paragraphs, there is an incredible thing about paragraphs 1 to 17, that is, there are citations in the papers written by Yu Zhenghuang. This is because when writing papers, there must be Paragraphs cite domestic and foreign academic journals.

Wu Junda said that in Lin Zhijian's thesis, all the citations disappeared. This is also the message that Zhang Youqi conveyed in court earlier, that is, when Yu Zhenghuang sent the first draft of his thesis to Professor Chen Mingtong, he did delete the citations. When the professor sent it to Lin Zhijian, perhaps Lin Zhijian didn't pay attention to the plagiarism, so he didn't notice that there were no citations. Therefore, whether there are citations on the paragraphs can prove that Lin Zhijian has indeed plagiarized.

Wu Junda emphasized that paragraphs 18 to 33 are very clear plagiarism, which can indeed prove that the National Taiwan University Lunhui has not wronged Lin Zhijian.

Wu Junda also said that Lin Zhijian presented the poll data in court, emphasizing that he provided it, and pointed out that since Yu Zhenghuang used his poll data, it was Yu who represented the infringement. Lin Zhijian also claimed that the poll company and him are the joint copyright holders. However, this poll data has never been brought up by Lin Zhijian since the news media began to track this controversial incident.

Wu Junda also emphasized that this poll data was provided to Chen Mingtong, and Chen Mingtong used it to publish a paper, but Chen Mingtong never mentioned this polling company, so we believe that this polling company was obviously fabricated for the purpose of responding afterwards. from.

Wu Junda of Yu Zhenghuang's lawyer team said that according to the attached table, it can be found that the two papers have 33 paragraphs, which are almost exactly the same.
