When Wu Xing's chalk made its final stroke on the blackboard.
The scene featuring the top student was instantly ignited by applause.
This variety show has completely rewritten history.
...
Backstage at the program.
The station directors were all too excited to speak.
A deputy director excitedly said to the man next to him:
"Director Liu, your program is so creative! Explaining R&D technology live, I never expected it could be done like this."
But Wang Songyun, the director of the station, who was sitting in the main seat, was somewhat worried. "Director Liu, what's the deal with those comments about plagiarism?"
"Wouldn't broadcasting this kind of technical theory from a specialized field constitute copyright infringement?"
At this moment, the man surnamed Liu said, "Director Wang, you can rest assured about this."
"My idea was just inspired by a video that was circulating online."
"Moreover, I have already modified all the content inside. It's just similar in form, so it shouldn't involve plagiarism."
"Besides, it's all for the sake of the show."
The man speaking, surnamed Liu, is Liu Jiang, the director of the television station's editorial department.
He is currently competing with another department head for the position of deputy station director.
Liu Jiang knew that all he needed to do was create a hit show.
Then this deputy director position will surely belong to me.
So he frantically searched for resources online.
And Su Chen's video happened to come into his view.
That evening, after Liu Jiang finished watching the video...
The first thing that came to his mind was the "Super Scholar" program he had.
After that, he began to plan and recreate Su Chen's performance at the exchange meeting.
After Liu Jiang had someone investigate, he learned that the video on the internet originated from an academic exchange meeting at Jiangcheng University.
So he used his connections to collect detailed information from that time.
As a professional, Liu Jiang understands very well that only those real-life scenarios can elicit a response.
That's the best way to stir people's emotions.
Especially this kind of approach, where a student gives a lecture to an expert on the spot, can be described as extremely creative and impressive.
The reactions of the experts at that exchange meeting.
Liu Jiang felt that they acted even more realistically than some actors!
If this effect were broadcast as a program, it would definitely be a huge hit!
So he started this large-scale "reality show".
They not only brought in a group of "experts".
They also recruited Wu Xing, a PhD in medicine, to be the final contestant.
As Liu Jiang predicted, the show became a huge hit.
It also boosted the overall viewership of the television station.
...
While Liu Jiang and others were still basking in the joy of the show's explosive popularity.
Jiangcheng University, near Tsinghua and Peking Universities.
But everyone knew about the super-achiever, a man named Wu Xing.
The news quickly reached Chen Guoliang and Qiao Huaiyuan.
now.
After watching the replay of the "Super Scholar" program, both professors angrily smashed their water glasses on the ground.
"These people, how dare they act so recklessly!"
"This person named Wu Xing, apart from modifying some of the data on the blackboard, how is the rest of the content different from Su Chen's research?"
"This is no longer just about plagiarism; it's a desecration of knowledge!"
"This TV station is shameless! They even hired these so-called experts to imitate us!"
"Do they think we academics are easy to bully by using this method to grab attention?"
After the two old professors finished their rant.
They all picked up the phone at the same time.
"Hello, is this the Ministry of Education? This is Chen Guoliang... Um, I have something to report to the higher-ups."
"Hello, is this the Bureau of Culture, Radio, Film and Television? Connect me to Minister Zhang immediately. Tell him I am Qiao Huaiyuan from Tsinghua and Peking Universities, and I have something urgent to report to him."
...
The next morning, Liu Jiang was still having sweet dreams in bed.
He dreamed that he was promoted to deputy director of the station thanks to this hit show.
Soon after, he even ousted the station director and took over the position himself.
But before he could fully experience what it felt like to be the station director, he was still in the process of learning.
A phone call, however, woke him from his sleep.
"Hey Liu Jiang, get to the station right now! Immediately, right now!"
"Um, Director Wang, what's going on?"
"What's wrong? How dare you ask me that?"
"Just now, the State Administration of Culture, Radio, Film and Television and the Ministry of Education both called."
"Your episode not only involved plagiarism, but also caused an extremely negative impact online, seriously damaging the reputation of others."
"Come to the station right now to complete the handover procedures. Effective today, you are fired!"
When Liu Jiang heard this, he felt his brain explode.
After that, nothing could be heard.
...
at the same time.
Su Chen was still sound asleep.
He has been busy building the factory these days, but he is completely unaware that he is being imitated and plagiarized.
It wasn't until Chen Guoliang and Qiao Huaiyuan both called Su Chen that he realized he was being imitated.
After listening to the two professors' explanations, Su Chen was speechless.
This is truly a case of "if you don't court death, you won't die"...
In the following days, the two departments joined forces.
The show "Super Scholar" was immediately canceled.
This television station in Suzhou.
Starting with station director Wang Songyun, they all received disciplinary action.
