Intellectual property rights refer to personal rights and property rights such as copyright, patent right, trademark right, right of discovery, right of invention and other scientific and technological achievements enjoyed by citizens and legal persons according to law. China's "General Principles of Civil Law" has made specific provisions on citizens' intellectual property rights. Although children are minors, they also enjoy the right to intellectual achievements according to law. Article 36 of the Law on the Protection of Minors stipulates: "The state protects the intellectual achievements and honor rights of minors from infringement according to law." At the same time, it is stipulated: "For minors with special talents or outstanding achievements, the state, society, families and schools should create strong conditions for their healthy development." Minors with special talents have excellent growth potential and need special protection and training. Only in this way can their talents be brought into full play. Those minors who have made outstanding achievements through hard work should receive special care and cherish so that they can make greater contributions to the country.
If the intellectual property rights of minors are illegally infringed, the parents or other guardians of minors may request legal protection from the relevant administrative organs or judicial organs. Require the infringer to bear legal responsibility. For example, when Susan Wang was eight years old, he often talked to himself. His father, who is engaged in literary creation, carefully recorded his daughter's words, which turned out to be a poem. Later, Susan Wang published his poems in the school magazine many times, and several children's poems won prizes! Soon, my father found a book of children's award-winning poems in the bookstore, which included four award-winning works of his daughter, so he went to the publishing house to ask for remuneration and sample books. The publishing house replied: "We don't make money at all, just to encourage children to write poems. Besides, your daughter is only 8 years old. What's the pay? ! "Susan Wang's father insisted on winning his daughter's understanding and took her to court.
General principles of civil law in China. The Copyright Law stipulates that citizens enjoy copyright, and citizens who create works are the authors of the works. The copyright belongs to the author. According to the Copyright Law, copyright includes the right to publish, the right to sign, the right to modify, the right to protect the integrity of a work, the right to use and the right to receive remuneration. As the author of poetry, Susan Wang enjoys copyright, which is a citizen's right. Citizens' exercise of rights is not restricted by gender, nationality or age.
