摘要
依据反不正当竞争法和依据知识产权专门法对侵权行为提起诉讼是各自独立和平行的两个请求,并非是谁对谁的补充,不存在谁优先适用。知识产权专门法(如著作权法)不能保护的对象,不排除依然可以按反不正当竞争法获得保护,但是,只能按照不正当竞争的侵权构成要件进行审查,与知识产权专门法是否保护该成果无关。对公众熟知的文学作品中的人物形象的模仿不排除可以依据反不正当竞争法加以禁止,但是,"金庸诉江南"案中被告所借用的仅仅是金庸文学作品中的人物名称、性格特征和人物关系等抽象元素,《此间的少年》中的人物形象与金庸作品中的人物形象并不相同。被告的这种创作行为并不会挤占原作者的创作空间,一味加以禁止,反而不利于文学创作的自由和繁荣。
The tort of unfair competition and the infringement of the exclusive IP rights are two separate and parallel legal claims. The subject matters the intellectual property laws, for example, the copyright law, cannot protect may still be protected under the anti-unfair competition law. However it must be strictly examined according to the requirements of unfair competition tort. In the case of Jin Yong v. Jiang Nan, the defendant borrowed only the abstract elements such as the names of characters, personality traits and relationship in Jin Yong’s literary works, but the characters in Jiang Nan’s work are not the same as the specifc characters in Jin Yong’s works. Such use does not occupy the original author’s creative space. If such kind of borrowing would be a tort of unfair competition, it will not be benefcial to the freedom and prosperity of creation.
