According to lawyer Cuong, the stage names, pseudonyms, personal names such as Duc Hien, Han Ni, Vy Oanh ... are characteristic names, bearing distinguishing elements of individuals, currently these individuals are in conflict. conflict with Mrs. Nguyen Phuong Hang.

Therefore, the event that Dai Nam Company organizes an event, takes the names of people who are in conflict to give racing dogs and horses, such as Duc Hien racing dog, Han Ni racing horse, Vy Oanh racing horse... and other racers.

"Why before Dai Nam Company, Ms. Hang did not name pets with those names, but after starting to have direct and public conflicts with these people, she gave them names for pets.

Second, the names Han Ni, Duc Hien, Vy Oanh ... are famous names and almost everyone knows that these people are in conflict with Ms. Hang and are waiting for the law to be resolved.

There may be people who think "I like to name whatever I like" but in my opinion, it can be named Hong, Tangerine, Grapefruit, Orange... any. But if calling a dog or a horse by a celebrity's name is in conflict, this is intentional, not coincidental," - the German lawyer analyzed.

According to the German lawyer, our country's law also clearly stipulates that the names of shops and shops are not allowed to use the names of leaders and celebrities.
