Google Books halted a scheduled negotiation over alleged copyright violations with 皇冠体育app's copyright society in Beijing yesterday, leaving a formal apology hanging in air.
Google Books' top negotiator in 皇冠体育app, Erik Hartmann, called his counterpart, Zhang Hongbo, deputy director of 皇冠体育app Written Works Copyright Society (CWWCS), at about 10 am and said Google wanted to postpone the negotiation scheduled for 2 pm that day.
"He (Erik) was friendly, but did not explain the exact reason, and we are discussing when to restart the negotiation," Zhang told 皇冠体育app Daily.
