Chapter 153 Plagiarism?
These few simple and clear words caused an uproar in the audience.
"Do you have any evidence?" The judges asked seriously, as they couldn't believe Murong just because of one sentence.
"Yes, I have a record of the composition of this song." Murong asked someone to bring up his handwritten manuscript.
The judges were silent when they saw the manuscript: "Your handwritten manuscript is the easiest to fake. Don't you have an electronic archive?"
"Yes, I have records of sending it to others." Murong said firmly.
Murong took out his cell phone and showed it to the judges.
At this time, Zhang Qian's assistant came.
"Dear judges, it was Murong who plagiarized Qianqian. This is the song written by Qianqian. Look! Qianqian wrote it a week ago, but I didn't expect Murong to plagiarize it!" The assistant glared at Murong.
Both parties submitted handwritten manuscripts, and Zhang Qian even said that hers was earlier. The judges suddenly didn't know who to believe.
The judges were in a dilemma.
"Don't you have more direct evidence?"
Assistant Zhang Qian said, "Qianqian has been in the industry for many years and is already a well-known figure. She has no need to plagiarize a newcomer like Murong. Murong used to be an actress, and now she's participating in a singing competition. She must be trying to gain fame for herself! She knew Qianqian was in the habit of writing her own songs, so she plagiarized Qianqian's music. This is really too much! Teachers, you must stand up for Qianqian!"
Assistant Zhang Qian's words were filled with righteous indignation. If passers-by saw this, they would probably feel angry for them.
Murong opened his eyes wide.
Oh my God, she really didn't expect that there would be someone so shameless!
"How shameless of you! This is mine, okay?" Murong was really angry, but she was powerless to prove herself and was so angry that she couldn't speak for a moment.
The audience also became noisy.
"It's obvious Murong plagiarized it. Qianqian even said she had written it a week ago."
"I also think that Zhang Qian, with her strength, doesn't need to plagiarize, right?"
"Murong must have plagiarized Zhang Qian. Is there any need to think about this? I didn't expect Murong to be so shameless!"
There are also those who oppose it.
"Zhang Qian's performance in the promotion match wasn't as good as Murong's, right? She definitely didn't want to lose to the newcomer, so she copied Murong."
"That's right. Murong performed so well in the qualifying rounds, there's no need to copy Zhang Qian!"
"And I think Murong sings this song much better."
Zhang Qian also came out.
She thought that when her assistant showed up, everyone would stand on her side, but she didn't expect that so many people would support Murong, and some even said that Murong sang better than her.
The pride that Zhang Qian had accumulated over the years was now somewhat shattered.
She was so angry that everyone said she was not as good as the newcomer.
Fortunately, she has a backup plan.
Zhang Qian looked down at Murong and said, "Murong, are you sure you wrote this?"
"Yes, I wrote it, but a great writer revised it for me!" Murong looked at Zhang Qian angrily, "Zhang Qian, I didn't expect you to be so shameless!"
"Haha, I'm unlucky too. Everyone knows I usually write my manuscripts by hand, so you took advantage of me. The judges must be in a difficult position." Zhang Qian looked at the judges. "I don't want to waste everyone's time, so I have an idea. Murong and I will both withdraw from the competition! This time, it's just bad luck for me, but I will definitely change this bad habit in the future."
These very appropriate words immediately increased Zhang Qian's favorability.
"Qianqian, don't do that. You've been in the industry for so many years, Murong is not even worthy of being compared to you!"
"Qianqian, you can't quit. I came to watch the game because of you!"
"I think Qianqian must be number one. The production team must give Qianqian an explanation."
"I actually saw a sense of righteousness in Zhang Qian. Without any evidence, this is really hard to explain."
When everyone was on Zhang Qian's side, someone came forward to testify.
"Qianqian, you don't have to quit. I'll report that Murong plagiarized Zhang Qian!"
This voice attracted everyone's attention. Murong looked over in surprise. When he saw who it was, he was shocked.
It turned out to be Wang Meng!
Murong stared blankly at Wang Meng as she approached. Wang Meng looked at Murong with disgust: "Murong, I thought you were a good person at first, but I didn't expect you to be so despicable! Last night, you sneaked out just to steal Zhang Qian's manuscript, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Murong was stunned. "Wang Meng, you actually framed me? Why did you do this?"
"I framed you? Every word I said was the truth!" Wang Meng said with disdain. She stood there, looking very aloof, and said word by word: "Murong went out last night and never came back. At such an important moment, she didn't sleep in her room. She could only have stolen someone else's manuscript! And then practiced all night!"
Murong had never seen anyone who could confuse right and wrong just by opening his mouth.
"Wang Meng, are you crazy? Was that a ghost sleeping next to you that night?" Murong gradually calmed down now. It turned out that the traitor was Wang Meng. "I understand now. No wonder Zhang Qian had my manuscript. It turned out that you got up at night and secretly sent it to her. I really didn't expect you to be so vicious."
Wang Meng sneered and said very righteously, "You actually want to frame me? What a shame! I'm not afraid! Judges, audience, I promise that every word I say is the truth! It was Murong who plagiarized Zhang Qian!"
With Wang Meng's testimony, the balance tilted directly towards Zhang Qian's side.
"It's Murong, I told you, there's no need for Zhang Qian to plagiarize."
"Murong is a plagiarist. She might have stolen the song from somewhere else. She must be banned!"
