Mr. Meffert,
1 - "Now regarding KOs a person calling himself Qx is now offering KOs of our Pyraminx-Crystal designed by Aleh Hladzilin and our Flower-Minx designed by Dave Litwin. This man is falsely claiming that they are designed originally by him and he is making them for Mefferts Puzzles. This is of course NOT True. However I last year did enter into an agreement with him for five of our puzzles whereby he could manufacture them for the Chinese market only and pay our company a royalty for the use of our Mefferts Brand. I was also helping him improve the design and quality of those five old puzzles in question, which where myPyraminx, Skewb cube, Megaminx and Master and Prof. cube only. As it turns out, he was very dishonest in his dealings with us. Not only did he not abide by the agreement we signed, but he later began to tell my wife that the Pyraminx, Master cube and Professor cube were invented by him.
...
2 - If however this plea falls on deaf ears and we cannot now stop this from becoming an even more serious copy problem than it already is and protect the original designers of these puzzles from receiving their deserved recognition and royalty, then I will stop creating new puzzles for next year and beyond. In 1985 when the Taiwan KO problem got totally out of hand, I closed my total puzzle operation for 5 years and went back to breading exotic fish and shrimp until the Taiwanese Government closed all the copy companies down in 1990. We are not against closing down our puzzle operation once again if this problem is not stopped. If you want to continue to see high quality puzzles coming from Mefferts puzzles, DON'T PURCHASE THE COPIES!
...
3 - We are now taking legal action against ** and other copy companies with pledged full Chinese Government support, so let’s see what happens. But we will still also need your fullest support. Ulrich and I cannot and will not do it on our own. We need to see that our sacrifices and efforts are appreciated and our new puzzle releases are indeed cherished."
簡單翻譯如下 :
1 - Qx 現在 正出售 Aleh Hladzilin 設計 的 Pyraminx-Crystal 及 Dave Litwin 設計 的 Flower-Minx. 他們 還 宣稱 這兩款 魔方 都是 自我研發, 並且 Meffert 售賣的 都由他們的工廠生產. 這是個 錯誤宣言. 去年, Meffert 確實 有跟 Qx 簽署合作協定, 允許 他們 為Meffert 生產 幾款魔方, 包括 Pyraminx, Skewb cube, Master and Prof. cube. Meffert 也替Qx 改良了很多魔方設計, 模具及技術, 以達到國際魔方的標準. 但是, Qx 並沒有 里行合約 的條文, 反之 說 那些 魔方 都是 他們自己研發改良.
2 - Meffert 希望 大家 不要購買 KO Pyraminx-Crystal 及 KO Flower-Minx, 保障 發明家的利益, 不然, Meffert 將會在下年度 停止 生產新款魔方. 1985 , 台灣 有很嚴重 的KO 問題, Meffert 就停了 5年 生產新款魔方. 1990, 台灣政府 嚴正處理 KO 問題, 關閉了很多KO 工廠, 也拉了負責人去坐牢. Meffert 才回來, 再為大家 生產 新款魔方. 如果 大家 還想 見到 新款的魔方 面世, 請不要買 KO 產品.
3 - Meffert 現在 以法律途徑 去 處理 Qx 廠 及 其他廠 的 KO Meffert's 魔方問題. 並 已經 得到 中國政府的全力支持, 大家 拭目以待罷 !
另外, Meffert 還需要 大家的支持, 支持 正版, 專重 知識產權. 謝謝 !
