The dining table was silent, and the two people in the private room sat at both ends of the round table, and neither spoke.
This silence has been maintained for more than ten seconds.Since Lin Siji finished his last sentence, Zhang Mo didn't reply anymore.
Zhang Mo's face was slightly blue, his lips were pursed tightly, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes.
On the other hand, Lin Siji still had a smile on his lips, and his expression was relaxed and natural, as if what he just said was just an ordinary request.
The door of the box opened, and the waiter came in with a plate.
The soft sound of porcelain hitting the turntable broke the silence in the room.
The waiter places the dishes, holds the turntable, and pushes hard.
The beautiful orange-yellow squirrel fish slowly came into Zhang Mo's sight, and the sweet and sour aroma woke him up.
Zhang Mo picked up the chopsticks and put a polite smile on his face.He picked up a piece of fish standing upright from the belly of the fish, and said, "I don't understand what you mean...but I will help to inquire about that Mr. Wu Sheng, so that he will give up these behaviors."
"The squirrel fish of this restaurant is the signature, Si Ji, you can try it."
The squirrel fish was pushed in front of Lin Siji, but he remained motionless, without any sign of moving his chopsticks.Remember https://m. vipkanshu. com
"Don't be so troublesome." Lin Siji smiled and looked at Zhang Mo, "I don't bother you about contacting Wu Sheng. After all, how do people communicate with themselves, you say so, Mr. Wu Sheng. "
Under his gaze, Zhang Mo's pretended relaxed expression gradually disintegrated.
He put down his chopsticks, lowered his head and spat out fishbone into the plate, and when he raised his eyes again, his expression changed.
"How did you know?"
Lin Siji said casually: "Although I have been wandering around the circle for so many years, let me check my pseudonym...someone is willing to give me some face."
Zhang Mo was not convinced by his words: "I checked it from Fu Yueyu."
Lin Siji smiled without saying a word.
"Tsk." Zhang Mo frowned, "That guy is really a disaster. Since college, it's not good to have a relationship with him."
"I reminded you." Lin Siji said softly, "But you still chose to cooperate with him."
"For profit." Zhang Mo remained expressionless, "This circle is like this, with low moral standards and low professional requirements. It only has a soft spot for capital. For profit, enemies can also become partners."
Lin Siji smiled: "So you chose to plagiarize my work for profit?"
"Hello." Zhang Mo's expression changed slightly, "Siji, don't tell me what's wrong. You were begging me not to sue you for plagiarism just now, but now you're accusing me instead."
Facing his accusation, Lin Siji was noncommittal, he avoided answering directly, and said: "Just now you also said that you believe that I am definitely not a plagiarist."
"I think it's true." Zhang Mo said, "But the clear evidence is in front of me, and I have to make a difficult judgment."
Lin Siji was silent for a while, then said, "That's true."
"When clear evidence is presented, it is indeed necessary to abandon previous friendships and make rational judgments."
He looked at Zhang Mo with a bit of regret in his eyes: "If I remember correctly, you were the class president in college."
Zhang Mo was an absolute top student when he was in college. Although Lin Siji was able to hold him back in terms of grades, he joined the student union and ran for class leadership, which is a good example of all-round development.
Lin Siji suddenly brought up university matters, Zhang Mo didn't know what he wanted to do, so he only responded cautiously.
Lin Siji recalled: "I remember when I was a sophomore, our schoolwork was very tight, a teacher assigned homework like crazy, and had to hand in a complete script in two weeks, seven or eight times in a row..."
Lin Siji smiled at Zhang Mo: "I still remember that when I just transferred here, I didn't have any theoretical knowledge, and I didn't even know the basic pattern of the script. In the end, you came to help me..."
After being told by him, Zhang Mo recalled the scene at that time, and his expression relaxed a little.
He pulled out a smile: "You were really embarrassed at that time."
"Really." Lin Siji shrugged, "At that time, I thought I was probably a piece of trash. I struggled with script homework every month, sat at the stall by the door from morning to night, smoked a pack of cigarettes, and still had no clue. No... You probably thought I was too miserable at the time, so you came to help me... In the end, you didn't finish your homework, and we were both judged by the teacher to fail the normal score... I apologize to you and say that next time It won't hurt you anymore, but you said that you are the class monitor, and it is your responsibility to help your classmates..."
Zhang Mo listened, lost in memory, he sighed and said: "Looking at it this way, I was really not smart at that time."
"Who says it's not." Lin Siji said, "I've always been grateful to you because of that incident. Even though many things happened later, I think you were just involved and have no connection with the person who really made the mistake."
Zhang Mo heard some hints, he turned his eyes away to avoid Lin Siji's sight.
Lin Siji still looked straight at him: "So, when I learned that you were the one behind the stumbling block, and even the one who took the lead, I was very disappointed."
"I'm really sorry." Zhang Mo said with lowered eyes, "I've always been an egoist. I helped someone who would step on me in the future when I was in college. It was purely accidental and stupid. If my help makes you treat me If there is any misunderstanding, I think the obstructive measures I have taken, and will take, should be enough for you to recognize my essence."
"Ah."
What Zhang Mo said was decisive, but Lin Siji deserved to be light.
"That's right." Lin Siji said calmly, "So, after I no longer have expectations for you, I'm not surprised to find that you actually plagiarized the setting and plot from the script assignment I submitted in college.
Lin Siji's words exploded like thunder.Zhang Mo shuddered suddenly, and looked up in astonishment.
"You still remember..."
"What? Do you think that as time goes by, I will forget the script I wrote?" Lin Siji said, "Or, do you think that I have proposed and denied too many plot lines, even if I steal one or two of them? , and I won’t notice it.”
Zhang Mo looked ugly.
Lin Siji's words hit his secret thoughts.
When Lin Siji was in college, he showed amazing creative ability.The ideas in his mind seemed endless, and he could write dozens of settings and conceive hundreds of plots in one night.
But because there is no professional study, many setting plots cannot be harmonious and logical to become a complete script, so Lin Siji always wrote one by one and threw countless ideas into the "unusable" basket.
He wrote too much and threw it too casually, giving Zhang Mo the illusion of "not caring at all".
It was this delusion that led to some nights when no script was written.Zhang Mo chose to reach out to the straw paper scattered around the trash pile behind Lin Siji a few years ago.
Looking at Zhang Mo's expression, Lin Siji knew that his guess was right.
He said: "I remember, in the first professional class I took, the first point the teacher emphasized was not to plagiarize... I thought you were the same as me and were deeply impressed by this."
Zhang Mo's expression froze, and he gritted his teeth: "You have no way to prove that I plagiarized."
"Oh?"
"All the evidence now shows that your work was published after mine. You can't explain to the public how the work published a few years ago plagiarized the work a few years later. Even if you pretend that we were roommates To explain this relationship will also be considered to be unreasonable because it is too far-fetched.”
This is the truth, the public does not know that Lin Siji and Zhang Mo are roommates, let alone that Zhang Mo had the opportunity to come into contact with Lin Siji's "waste manuscript" because of helping Lin Siji.
They will only see the timeline of the work, and judge who the plagiarist is based on the simplest and clearest evidence.
Zhang Mo gritted his teeth, he clung to the last straw and stared at Lin Siji.
He expected to see Lin Siji showing a helpless expression.
He was disappointed.
After hearing what Zhang Mo said, Lin Siji simply smiled: "You seem to have written a lot of scripts under the pseudonym Wu Sheng."
The topic was changed again, Zhang Mo didn't know what he was going to do, so he didn't say a word.
Lin Siji said to himself: "I've gone to find out, Wu Sheng's famous work seems to be a movie called "The Nutcracker"."
"In this movie, Gao Guang is the heroine who is a dancer and loses her legs due to various accidents. She still dances when she hears the music of "The Nutcracker"... What did your face change? Are you aware of this plot? Deja vu? It’s normal to feel familiar, after all, we once watched Yang Yan perform this clip behind the curtain together.”
Lin Siji glanced at Zhang Mo.
His face paled visibly, and cold sweat covered his forehead.
"I heard that after Wu Sheng became famous, he kept silent about his famous works... Yes, this is the most obvious work you plagiarized. Even if you replace "Don Quixote" with "The Nutcracker", the When an actor is replaced by an actress, anyone can clearly confirm that one of them is plagiarizing just by looking at the comparison of the two..."
Cold sweat dripped from Zhang Mo's forehead, and he said dryly: "You have no evidence..."
Lin Siji's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm: "You can get the evaluation video of Wang Shusheng's casting, don't you realize that it's easy for me to find the clips of Yang Yan's performance? When the time comes, you will send out a draft to step down." I plagiarized, I don't need to explain anything, just put this video out, put it together with your "Nutcracker"... All the evidence you posted can only be turned into self-hammered proof."
Zhang Mo knew that the situation was over.
He was dizzy for a moment, held on to the edge of the table with all his strength, and lost his composure: "Even so... I won't be blamed... Even if there are references, the touch, joy, and love my works bring to the audience are real. What I did Everything is just to create better works..."
Lin Siji looked at the ugly Zhang Mo, and said, "What you are doing is not creation at all."
Zhang Mo raised his head suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot.
Lin Siji showed some pity on his face.
"Fill the core of your own blank and empty works with things conceived by others, and the things you produce are inconsistent with the horse's mouth, but you still insist on naming them as 'my works'... What you are doing is nothing but creation It's nothing more than incompetent and lowly rumination."
This silence has been maintained for more than ten seconds.Since Lin Siji finished his last sentence, Zhang Mo didn't reply anymore.
Zhang Mo's face was slightly blue, his lips were pursed tightly, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes.
On the other hand, Lin Siji still had a smile on his lips, and his expression was relaxed and natural, as if what he just said was just an ordinary request.
