Comeback [entertainment]

What kind of thing, as soon as the official media is involved, the nature changes immediately.

In particular, this is not an ordinary official media, China Central News Network, a port directly linked to the daily news, the entertainment content that can be published here on weekdays, could it be the marriage of a certain country's prince or the fight between the congressmen at the X country's political meeting Category.The headlines that appear on the top will basically not lose their place in the party newspaper. Regardless of the exposure rate, the attention of high-level officials will never be lacking anyway.

If Song Tian didn't take it seriously until he received the court summons, the current situation cannot tolerate him not taking it seriously.Pressuring public opinion is an effective and terrifying tool, and one of the most mature skills he has ever used, and he knows all too well how effective it can be.When all the voices are like-minded in favor of the contradictory side, passers-by who originally knew nothing about the matter will unconsciously shift their positions. In the past, he could delete posts and seal them and use time to clear people's memories, but now , the eyes of the upper echelons will definitely focus on this. Judge Zheng's phone call has already vaguely and clearly indicated the current status quo to him.

Provided he is right, there is of course nothing to worry about.But the problem is that the correct judgment must be against him!

How much money was spent before and after, Song Ti could not be counted at all. Seeing that the court was about to start soon, Song Tian lay weakly on the sofa and stunned all afternoon. Unwilling to give up, he gritted his teeth and got up again.

He can't lose this lawsuit.

Because once there is a precedent of losing a lawsuit, future courts will have cases to follow, so Mingcheng will inevitably become a fat sheep in the eyes of other companies, and copyright disputes will continue.If you lose this lawsuit, there will be a second, third, and fourth. How can there be so much money to pay them?Did it fall from the sky?

Song Tian couldn't rest for a moment, so he immediately asked someone to ask someone to go out for dinner.

But those "big shots" who were originally called brothers and even had contacts with famous cities aspired to get busy together. They either held meetings or went on business trips, and they had to do something at home. In short, they just didn't have time to come out to meet him for dinner.Just kidding, I don't even look at what time it is now, the incident has gone abroad, the leaders who have a good face at the top opened their mouths in displeasure, and asked the next to investigate the truth and don't let the cultural circle feel chilled, who has the guts He Neng dared to take the risk of being dragged into the water to pursue his little advantage?

As the chairman of Mingcheng Film and Television, Song Tian has been praised for half his life. This is the first time he has had nowhere to ask for help. The furnishings in the office have been smashed and changed several times.

There was a commotion inside, and the assistant listened for a while with his ears pricked up, then turned his head and pouted at Tang Min who was waiting at the door: "I advise you to go back and wait for the news."

Tang Min was so worried that most of the top of his head, which was not too thick, was thankful, and there were a pair of dark circles under his eyes. Hearing this, tears were about to flow out: "Dong Song, I don't see anyone, and the court is about to start again. , You said that this matter is troublesome, what can we do!"

Seeing the helpless smile on the assistant's face, Tang Min wished he could slap himself to death. When Song Tian gave him a sample, he also felt that something was wrong, and he even asked about it.Song Tian didn't hide it from him, but said that everyone in the market is doing this these days, how many people have accidents?

He still remembered the original words that the other party said while smoking a cigar with Erlang's legs crossed on the sofa, with an arrogant face: "Don't talk about music, the company also copies movies and TV shows, copying screenwriters, storyboards, and lines. Those few in the industry Who is not like this in a big company? Who hasn’t been scolded by those poor people on the Internet? Look at XXX and XXXX, just pretend that you don’t know. Is it delaying who makes money?”

"As long as you can be popular, you are the winner."

This sentence was like a soul-soothing bell, knocking in his head with a bang, Tang Min felt that he was simply obsessed with ghosts, so he agreed.

After being out of breath for so many years and being a translucent person for so many years, it feels so good to score twice. "Spreading Wings and High" made him so popular that he couldn't figure it out immediately, and the money came like a stream of announcements.Those praises, those flashing lights, those fans' maintenance and screams are like taking drugs, which makes people hard to extricate themselves.

However, after the glamorous brilliance, he often feels uneasy, feeling like a thief who is still showing off after stealing.

The inconsiderate attitude of those industry collaborators often calmed down this anxiety, and it would resurface in the dead of night, entangled Tang Min tossing and turning, and could not sleep at night.Song Tian always said he was stupid and cowardly, and even dismissed Yuanshang and Sihai Group's investigation of this matter, but there was always a sentence flashing in Tang Min's mind——be kind Evil is rewarded in the end.

This anxiety appeared when the music was released, when it hit the charts, when the audience questioned it, and when one's own side forcibly refuted it, until this moment, it reached its peak.

That feeble and far-fetched fluke was gone.

It was replaced by endless fear and regret.

Tang Min has sung songs for more than 20 years, and has always claimed to be diligent and innocent.

He has protected his image for more than 20 years, loved his career for more than 20 years, his reputation, his persistence, and his belief.At this age with one foot in the coffin, everything is ruined.

*******

People who followed this matter on the Internet soon discovered that the chaos of frequently banning accounts and deleting posts had disappeared.

Overseas musicians intervened, which immediately brought a large number of participants to this matter. Yuanshang's "Start" was sold overseas well, with a fair reputation and a considerable base of fans.In addition, netizens all over the world love gossip, especially scandals. The influence of more than a dozen famous musicians has led to their enthusiastic fans. Across the Taiwan Strait, they are all watching the upcoming lawsuit.

Naturally, some domestic netizens' speeches about plagiarism and the series of actions of Mingcheng Film and Television after the scandal was exposed have not been hidden from their eyes.All major social media were filled with screenshots of pages translated into different languages ​​for a while, which caused many surprises in AIA.

Countless surprising and unbelievable comments were translated into Chinese and posted back to China. Many people in China who were originally indifferent to this became angry. Let foreigners watch jokes, this is a fucking embarrassment!

It's all fucking Mingcheng's fault!It's all Tang Min's fault!Thinking of the ambiguous attitude of the Internet and the media on this matter before, a lingering sense of shame hung over the battlefield. Mingcheng Film and Television stubbornly hung up the clarification explanation, and the official platform was directly scolded to close the comments. However, Hundreds of thousands of reposts are still filled with the boiling anger of the masses, and all kinds of hot words and emoticons derived from it are popular all over the country, which means that this ridiculous dispute will not be forgotten for at least ten years up.

"My mother is an old fan of Tang Min for more than ten years. She said that she dare not say that she likes Tang Min in the future. It's too embarrassing."

"The embarrassment has been thrown abroad! Isn't the famous city a cow? Why doesn't Boss Song dare to delete the post on fb?!"

"Yuan Shang's fans are also a bit disgusting, don't you know that family ugliness should not be publicized? It's okay to scold and scold at home, why do you want to expose it to foreigners?"

"Yeah, who knows whether the plagiarism is true or not? You Internet mobs are too easily incited. You don't believe Tang Min said that there is no plagiarism. What foreigners say is the truth?"

"Do you have some brains, okay? Also, this incident was caused by Yuanshang's fans... Yuanshang's fans are so capable and have been stationed in Zhongnanhai for a long time! It is obvious that you group of SBs are ugly and disgusted Youbang. Is it okay to make a sound?"

"NC fans are really selective and blind. The clear comparison of the music passages has been released, and they still refuse to admit plagiarism."

"Wake up, you can't show your family ugliness. Why don't you just say that it's best to let Yuanshang swallow his anger? The Qing Dynasty has perished, you Gege brothers! Please change your posture to clean up!"

"What about the ones who kept plagiarizing and making a big fuss from the original innocence? Why didn't they dare to come out?"

Amidst the sound of documents being printed, Yuanshang flicked the screen of his mobile phone. The news that the lawsuit was about to start was everywhere. It was different from the exhaustion of fans hanging up plagiarism evidence and reposting even unable to break through ten thousand at the beginning. Now the major social networking forums , The voices discussing this matter can be seen at any time.

Yu Shuimiao and the others rolled up their sleeves to fight for him. Mei Si and the others also called overseas to comfort him not to be sad. It is no longer a battle of his alone, but a confrontation between original supporters of the entire cultural circle against plagiarists.

This made Yuanshang realize that the market is not really as bad as he imagined, and many people who didn't speak at the beginning didn't hate crooked ways.It's just that the interests are at stake, the opponents are too strong, and they don't have a strong backing to support them from being hurt, so they don't dare to charge forward recklessly like this.

A strange call came in, from a local number, Yuanshang stared at it for a moment, and connected it.

A strange and tired voice came from the other end of the phone. Yuanshang had never heard it before, but he knew who it was.

"Song Tian."

He has confronted Mingcheng countless times. Before this conflict, his opponent had already used skilled hype to try to step on his head and take the fruit off.Song Tian made no secret of his arrogance. This can be seen from Mingcheng Film and Television's tough attitude in the face of fans' doubts in Yuanshang. Huge went to clear up the relationship, and he didn't have the slightest intention of admitting his mistakes.

Qin Huo said that he had no regrets at all, and it was the same from Yuanshang's point of view.

Yuanshang called him by his name without respect, causing Song Tian to be silent for a few seconds. He seemed a little upset, but he suppressed it and didn't explode. He asked straightforwardly: "How can you withdraw the lawsuit? You can put forward conditions. "

There were only two days left before the trial, during which Song Tian tried all the avenues he could go, but without any surprise, he found nothing.The public opinion is one-sided, the Four Seas Group is unwilling to communicate, and the judiciary avoids him like a snake.If it wasn't for nothing, Song Tian would never condescendingly call a small character like Yuanshang, so he clearly expressed his reluctance in his words: "The matter has come to this point, you have enough attention Now, what more do you want? Money? Let’s talk about the amount.”

Yuanshang held the phone between his shoulders and cheeks, opened the document with a pen and signed it in the lower right corner, and chuckled lightly, "Dong Song is so rich."

"You don't need to be weird." Song Tian snorted, "Didn't you say 500 million in your lawsuit for compensation? I'll double it for you, 1000 million."

After signing the document, put it aside, and picked up a new one. Yuanshang glanced at the row of "Intercontinental Cooperation Treaty" on the cover, and couldn't help but think of the information he had inquired before.Famous City Film and Television has a long history of being involved in plagiarism scandals, and he is not the first victim. Starting from the farthest dispute over the same script, over the past ten years, hundreds of creators, big and small, have lodged complaints against them. over protest.Domestic and foreign, film and television, these disputes without exception have not caused any disturbances.The price to be paid in a copyright lawsuit in China is too painful. Some small creators with little reputation were even beaten up and scolded to the point of scolding. However, Mingcheng has developed rapidly in the industry by relying on numerous methods without bottom line. , Accumulate wealth, until the completion of today's scale.

In fact, Yuanshang was very open-minded and optimistic. This was the first time he was disgusted and loathed a person like this.

Facing Song Tian's attitude of still thinking highly of himself, he just thought it was extremely ridiculous, and he didn't want to show any affection to the other party: "Song Dong's sincerity in wanting to withdraw the lawsuit is not enough."

Sure enough, the price tag was not enough, Song Tian sneered, and asked disdainfully, "What else do you want?"

"I want to apologize, yours, Tang Min's, and Mingcheng's entire company. I want you to publicly admit plagiarism, pay compensation, apologize to me, Sihai Group, and the entire society, and admit that you will never make the same mistake again."

Song Tian on the other end of the phone obviously didn't expect to get such an answer. He was silent for nearly a minute before he said in a hoarse voice, "Don't you think you're going too far?"

"Where is it too much? Isn't it human nature to know your mistakes and admit your mistakes?"

"Yuan Shang! Don't toast you and don't eat fine wine!" Being teased like this, Song Tian only felt like he was slapped in the face, and any kind of forbearance was useless, and he threatened viciously, "You Mom, don't think that with the support of those low-class people on the Internet, you can prosper forever!"

After signing the document, Yuanshang replied unhurriedly after hearing the words: "Dong Song, please pay attention to your words. I have been recording this call since I connected it."

Song Tian's roar stopped instantly like a chicken being choked. He gasped for a long time, and before Yuanshang thought he was pissed off, there was a bang and there was no more sound.

******

On the day of the court session, Song Tian did not attend.

But this does not affect the court's decision. Under the eyes of all the people, no one dared to play any tricks. The evidence compiled by fans, coupled with the free professional comparison of musicians in the industry after the incident broke out, plagiarized "Flying Wings and High" The hammer (evidence) of "The Chase" is just too hard.

Sihai Group won the lawsuit. The court ruled that Mingcheng Film and Television must pay Sihai Group and Yuanshang himself a total of 470 million yuan in compensation within [-] days from the date when the verdict came into effect, apologize publicly on major public platforms, and stop all Tang Min's new albums. sales activities.

The moment the news came to Famous City Film and Television through his assistant's phone, there was a loud noise in Song Tian's office that was no less than a demolition of a building.

However, for the masses who have been watching the development of this matter, it is an out-and-out happy event.

From the moment the verdict was posted, the entire Internet was shrouded in an atmosphere of general joy. The plagiarism incident developed from a small-scale controversy to the end. Netizens who have gone through this process are too aware of how twists and turns this ending is. not easy.

Not only the music circle, but countless screenwriters, directors, authors, painters, and even design and programming industries have forwarded this good news with joy, which is a good sign for all creative industries.

The tenacious and unwilling statement of Mingcheng Film and Television was finally deleted in a desperate manner. Even this could not stop the happy melon-eating crowd from watching and leaving messages——

"Don't pretend to be dead! Come out and apologize!"

"I'm a big fan of XXX. When the screenwriters of Mingcheng plagiarized the novels of XXX, Mingcheng not only refused to deal with it, but also covered up its employees, forcing XXX to close their pens... You also have today!!"

"Where's the idiot fan?! Where's Tang Min's idiot fan?! Come out and say that there is no plagiarism!!"

"I'm not exaggerating, tears fell when I saw the result"

"Did you hear the compensation and apology within fifteen days!? The court ordered it!"

"The cancer of the industry, the black sheep, boycott all works produced by Famous City in the future!"

"It's in vain that I spoke for you before, but it's really plagiarism. I'm so disappointed!"

"Where are those celebrities who retweeted and clarified before? Don't want to lose face, if you have the ability to stand in line, don't fucking delete it now!"

Not only Mingcheng and Chairman Song Tian, ​​but also those celebrities who reposted Mingcheng's clarification statement before became the target of public criticism. Although they reacted extremely quickly and deleted their support for the company not long after the verdict came out, some people had already Screenshots of their original dynamics were taken, compiled into a book, and tied to the pillar of shame.

Those fans who originally only supported idols regardless of black and white are in a hurry. They come forward and explain to those who condemn idols that this is a last resort. The company still holds the artist's contract in hand. The message so little request?

But such an explanation obviously has no effect. Instead, the fans are confused by another list of artists who have not been confused about right and wrong in this incident, and are also from Famous City.Passers-by sneered: "No choice? He is also an entertainer in a famous city. Why is Jiang Xie so quiet when he knows shame? Your family has already gained both fame and fortune. How can you be more involuntary than others? What kind of miserable gold is pasted on your face?"

There are also some fans who have high requirements for the character of idols, and they turned to passers-by directly because of this incident. The history of unconditionally standing on the side of plagiarists in copyright disputes has also become a scandal that many artists under Mingcheng will linger for life.

Everyone in the famous city was in panic, and Jiang Xie's manager was glad that Jiang Xie stood firm at that time and did not go into this troubled water.Now that Song Tian himself is like a bodhisattva crossing the river, how can he keep the reputation of those artists who were also scolded?

Tang Min's new song has just been released, and the album has not been released for a long time. The court ruled that it cannot continue to sell. The funds recovered so far are far from enough for the investment in the production and marketing of this album. Famous City is [-]% at a loss.

While the manager was gloating, he was also somewhat sad: "What should I do? The company is in such a mess now, the release date of your album will definitely be postponed, and the famous city has a bad reputation, maybe the sales will be affected by then."

Jiang Xie was also playing with his mobile phone, but his expression couldn't be downcast. He was wearing a thin short-sleeved jacket, with tattoos stretching from his neck to his back and half of his right arm. He was aggressive and sexy, even with a smile on his face. Fierceness: "Delay is delay, influence is influence, I'm afraid of shit."

"stop laughing?"

"Won't I be happy to see an idiot being beaten?" Jiang Xie snorted softly, feeling extremely happy. Signing with Famous City was the decision he regretted the most since his debut.This company was rotten from top to bottom. Every time Song Tian pretended to be aggressive in front of him, Jiang Xie resisted the desire to shake his fist at that stinky face.Before the plagiarism incident was resolved, Mingcheng's strategy was so disgusting that he couldn't even eat for several days. Now Yuanshang has won, and the New Year is not as festive as this moment.

Even if the agent knew that his concept was abnormal, he couldn't help being surprised at this moment: "You're still happy? What good does it do you if the company loses the lawsuit?"

"You know what a fart." Jiang Xie fell into the chair, tilted his head lazily and thought about Yuan Shang, and finally made a happy decision.

To celebrate, I will tattoo my left arm with flowers later.

******

Within [-] days after the judgment came into effect, sales of albums, compensation, and apology were stopped.

Every word was like a sap that hit Song Tian's chest, so heavy that he couldn't breathe.The first two, OK, it’s just money, just take it, but the last one is an apology.

And it had to be open and solemn, both he and Tang Min had to show up to apologize.

"Delusion!!!!!!" The biggest reason why he refused to agree to Yuanshang's private request before was because he didn't want to apologize, how could Song Tian hold back this face now?He smashed the fifth set of tea set that was replaced in the office, and his low and hoarse voice was so sharp for the first time, "Say shit!!! Let them dream!!! Let the legal department prepare the materials and appeal!!!"

The head of the Ministry of Justice stood far away from him, with a helpless expression on his face: "What materials are you preparing? The evidence in the first instance is sufficient, and there are public opinions to support it. Even if the court accepts it, what's the use of it?"

Song Tian sneered: "Anyway, I just won't apologize. It's not just me. After you go out, remember to remind Tang Min and ask him not to say anything. I see what those little characters who are jumping so hard can do with me."

Losing money can be forced, and stopping sales can be forced, but the mouth is on him, Song Tian just refuses to accept, who can break it?

This is indeed something no one can do. Seeing the days go by, more and more people are waiting for the public response from the famous city on the Internet, but the apology statement has not come out for a long time, and many people are angry.

"Apologize!!!"

"Plagiarism is shameful!!! Apologize!!!"

"Why don't you apologize!! The court has ruled, why pretend to be dead?!?!!"

"Do you dare to be brave?! Is Boss Song a man!!?"

"Apologize to Haraami!!! Apologize to society!!! Apologize for what you did!!!!!!"

Song Tian's heart was full of shame all the time, angry that he was insulted by these incompetent little people, but at the same time, he felt indescribably happy.So what if you won the lawsuit, and what if the court ruled in your favour?So what if the public opinion is all on your side?

Those idiots will one day be distracted by more eye-catching news, and I make no apologies, there's nothing you can do about it.

However, things backfired. While he was desperately resisting, his teammates came forward to tear down the stage.

Tang Min, who had been clearly told not to come forward to respond to the apology, posted a video on his Weibo homepage on No. 12 days after the verdict came into effect.

The video was shot a bit shaky. In the camera, his expression was tired, his hair was gray, and the high spirits that he scored twice while walking under the spotlight some time ago disappeared completely.

The shame in his eyes was so strong that he couldn't get rid of it, and even his voice was trembling, Song Tian only heard the other party choked up several times and repeated in a low voice——

"...I'm ashamed of everything I've done. At this age, I still can't resist the temptation of profit. I set a bad example. I'm really sorry. I will quit the entertainment industry from now on and use my own I regret this experience in my later life. I hope everyone can learn from it and don’t sell your soul just to take shortcuts. I’m sorry, Yuan Shang, for plagiarizing your work. You are a young man with pursuit and persistence. I admire you Your talent, I hope you can get better and better, and I also hope that there will be more and more people like you in the music circle I love..."

"Are you crazy!!!?" Song Tian refused to answer Tang Min's calls for so many days, and was so angry that he pulled the other party out of the blacklist and called him, "Who asked you to apologize?! Who asked you to quit entertainment? Circled?! There are so many projects in the company, so many TV movies, and you are missing a way to make money?! Do you fucking know that I have lost all face to you!!!!"

"Dong Song." Tang Min said, different from his timid and timid attitude all the time, his voice now sounded very upright, "Let me advise you, you earned your face, not someone else's."

"Get the fuck out of me!!!" Song Tiantian's voice cracked, and he kicked the sofa over with a roar, "These are all fucking things with no ambitions!!!!"

The unbroken mobile phone lay on the carpet and made a muffled sound. He stared at it bitterly for a long time, and finally went back to pick it up.

The caller displayed on the screen instantly calmed him down. Even if he didn't help, the caller still couldn't easily offend him. Song Tian slowed down his breathing for a long time before forcing his calm voice: "Judge Zheng? What's the matter?" ?”

Judge Zheng on the other end of the phone dragged his voice and asked him lazily: "My brother...how did I hear that you haven't apologized yet?"

"What?" Song Tian tried his best to sound more relaxed, "Can an apology be forced?"

"Tsk tsk, that's definitely not okay, but I said you have a stubborn temper..." The other party lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "No one can force you to apologize, but don't forget, this matter is so big. , It’s all on the party media and party newspapers, and many leaders above know it and follow up the news. Now the Internet is getting heated because of your refusal to apologize, and several leaders have even made a special trip to ask. You, if you make trouble again and put the famous city on the blacklist, you will be in trouble in the future."

It seems that the malice of the whole world is taking this opportunity to unscrupulously pour down, Song Tian feels like a salted fish, a piece of bacon, being pressed under the bluestone slab, being trampled and crushed by others.

Even the computer screen was smashed to pieces, Song Tian huddled in the corner, his self-esteem collapsed into a thin line, shivering, sitting from afternoon to late night, and from late night to early morning.

The morning sun penetrated through the window lattice and shone on the fine stubble of his face.

His eye sockets were bloodshot, he dialed the assistant's phone, his voice was as hoarse as a critically ill patient——

"Get me a video camera, now."

******

Wu Xiaoyue climbed onto the shelf with Wia hanging, and the martial arts instructor shouted from below: "When you jump down, you should move cleanly! Remember not to show your face!!!"

He agreed, because he had already fallen twice, his knees and palms were aching, and he suddenly heard the next few crew members talking on their mobile phones: "Lying grass!! Mingcheng Film and Television really apologized!?"

"It's really Song Tian! Look at his complexion... He also has today!"

Wu Xiaoyue was in a trance when he heard it, and then his chest burst into ecstasy. Yuanshang won the lawsuit, and Song Tian, ​​who had been refusing to show up until now, finally apologized. The plagiarism incident finally came to a successful conclusion.

He jumped down with a bang sound and fell hard. The director was finally satisfied and let him, the stand-in, rest and prepare for the next shot.

Song Tian's mental illness took away almost all his resources. Wu Xiaoyue was out of work and squatted at home for a long time. Earn a subsidy for a stand-in.

His hand was hurt, and he frowned in pain. He found the faucet and rinsed it before applying the medicine. Wu Xiaoyue squatted by the car and played with his mobile phone. He dug out the video of Song Tian's public apology to watch, and laughed heartily while watching it.

This bitch should teach him a lesson!The original Nima is really good!

The manager's call interrupted the unfinished video, Wu Xiaoyue was taken aback, and quickly picked it up: "Hello? Brother Wang, what am I resting on? Wait for the next scene, and I can finish filming tonight..."

"What are you shooting! Stop shooting!!"

Because of his random participation in the scolding war, Famous City Film and Television took action to suppress him, so that he was also implicated a lot. Brother Wang changed his weak voice a few days ago, and was so excited that he seemed to be able to jump up with his voice——

"I'm here to pick you up now, wait for it, Yuanshang studio called me, this time it's not a MV, it's a single, you're going to be fucking lucky!!!"
