Seemingly impatient to wait for him to continue, Designer No. 026 spoke up with a livid face: "So, your work is based on the passing of Designer Xie Chenlu, is that right?"

? ? ?

"Holy crap! I knew it! That face looked so familiar, I couldn't believe it! It's the 'Rebirth'!"

"This person is incredibly audacious! Plagiarizing so blatantly!"

"Judging from the way his eyes lit up just now, I was thinking, 'A master is a master, inspiration comes one after another,' but it turns out he plagiarized!"

"If I remember correctly, 'Rebirth' was Xie Dashen's work five years ago, right? Couldn't Dane have found someone else to plagiarize it? They're just squeezing every last drop of profit off Xie Dashen!"

"..."

A murmur of discussion rose and fell, and Dai Qingzhou froze completely.

Only two words were in my mind.

It’s over!

Looking at the designer, Diane, on the stage, her eyes practically blazed with fury: Idiot!!!

The large screen flickered slightly as the organizers brought up Xie Chenlu's "passing away".

A necklace.

A brooch.

The two works, one on the left and one on the right, present a striking contrast.

The commotion from the audience grew even louder.

"You can't say they're similar, you can only say they're... exactly the same!"

"I've seen people with guts, but I've never seen anyone this bold! Diane has really courted disaster!"

"They plagiarized right under the nose of the original designer, how arrogant!"

"No wonder Diane has the highest designer turnover rate in the industry. I used to think it was because of the intense competition, but now I see... haha! This is... karma!"

"We all noticed it, and the judges probably noticed it too, right?"

It was as if I could hear the murmurs of the designers in the audience.

The big screen flashed again, and the judges' scores were displayed all at once.
