copyright owner stipulated in Paragraph 1 of Article 10 of the Copyright Law of the People's Republic of China, namely "the right to make a work available to the public by wired or wireless means so that the public can access the work at a place and time of their choice". Based on the nature and characteristics of the information network transmission right, once the infringement of the information network transmission right occurs, it will lead to the result that "the public can access the work at a place and time of their choice", and the geographical scope involved in the infringement is uncertain. Therefore, Article 15 of the Provisions on Information Network Transmission Right stipulates that: "civil disputes over the infringement of an information network transmission right shall be under the jurisdiction of the people's court at the place where the infringement is committed or where the defendant is domiciled. The place where the infringement is committed includes the location of the equipment such as network server and computer terminal used to commit the alleged infringement. Where it is difficult to determine both the place where the infringement is committed and the domicile of the defendant or they are outside China, the location of the equipment such as computer terminal where the infringing content is discovered by the plaintiff may be regarded as the place where the infringement is committed." Therefore, Article 15 of the Provisions on Information Network Transmission Right is a special provision on the jurisdiction over civil cases concerning disputes over the infringement of an information network transmission right, which is a specific civil right. In determining the jurisdiction over cases concerning civil disputes over the infringement of an information network transmission right, Article 15 of the Provisions on Information Network Transmission Right shall be taken as the basis. In the case, Qinhuangdao City was the domicile of the plaintiff, but not the place where the infringement was committed or the domicile of the defendant stipulated in Article 15 of the Provisions on Information Network Transmission Right. The case was not involved in the exception stipulated in Article 15 of the Provisions on Information Network Transmission Right that " it is difficult to determine both the place where the infringement is committed and the domicile of the defendant or they are outside China". Therefore, the Qinhuangdao Intermediate People's Court, Hebei Province had no jurisdiction over the case, 3
