Recently, the matter of Dong Yuhui and Dongfang Selection has finally come to an end. Dong Yuhui was recently appointed as the cultural assistant to the chairman of New Oriental Education & Technology Group, and also serves as the vice president of New Oriental Cultural Tourism Group. This appointment was discussed by the majority of netizens and was congratulated by Jiupai News.
However, when everyone was discussing "Oriental Selection", a netizen found a live broadcast room called "Western Selection". Not only is its name similar to "Oriental Selection", but even the male anchor of the live broadcast is somewhat similar to Dong Yuhui. According to netizens, this account called "Western Selection" released the first ** on December 17, and the man who appeared on the camera looked similar to Dong Yuhui, claiming to be going to the "Western Selection" live broadcast room.
The account then posted several **, including clips of the male streamer confessing in the snow. At 10 p.m. on December 17, the account conducted its first live broadcast, and the number of people in the live broadcast room once exceeded 40,000. The account claimed to have premiered nearly 1 million ** episodes, and announced that it would conduct a second live broadcast at 10 pm on the 18th.
However, at present, the nickname and avatar of the account have been initialized, the posted ** has been emptied, and "Western Selection" cannot be searched on the Douyin platform. The person in charge of the Douyin platform said that the account was banned due to counterfeiting, improper rubbing and other behaviors, and the platform has canceled its live broadcast and profit-making permissions.
In this regard, the person in charge of the live broadcast room claimed that he was taken offline by Dongfang Selection, but they believed that they did not infringe on the trademark rights of Dongfang Selection, because they had already checked that the trademark of Western Selection had not been registered. They have now applied for a trademark for the Western Selection Account and expect to be able to do so soon. They said that this live broadcast was just a temporary idea, because the anchor looks very much like Dong Yuhui, and he will not consider live streaming in the short term.
This kind of "Western Selection" is not unique, and a number of companies are recently applying for the registration of trademarks such as "Western Selection", "Southern Selection", and "Northern Selection". Among them, the trademark "Western Selection" applied by a company in Hangzhou and the trademark "Southern Selection" applied by a company in Xiamen have been successfully registered, while most of the other trademark applications have been rejected or invalidated.
There is no consensus on whether this kind of behavior is a hard rub or an accident. It is true that this male anchor looks similar to Dong Yuhui, but some people think that it is just a coincidence.
In general, the impact of Dong Yuhui and Dongfang Selection on society is huge. Dong Yuhui's appointment has sparked widespread discussion, and the appearance of the "Western Selection" live broadcast room has also caused heated discussions.
For the impact of the entire incident, the following can be made. First of all, Dong Yuhui's appointment will bring about the reform and development of New Oriental Education and Technology Group. Secondly, the ban on the live broadcast room of "Western Selection" shows that the platform has a zero-tolerance attitude towards counterfeiting, improper rubbing and other behaviors. Finally, the incident has also raised concerns about trademark registration and counterfeiting, raising awareness of the importance of protecting intellectual property rights.
As for whether it is hard or accidental, this requires further investigation and understanding. However, whether it is a coincidence or an intentional counterfeiting, such behavior should be vigilant and adhere to the principles of trademark registration and intellectual property protection.
Finally, we can ask some questions for readers to discuss.
