Although Zhou Linna's agent, An Yang, contacted the public relations team immediately to deal with the situation, and also found lyricist and composer Lin Zhou to take all the blame.
However, he did not expect Fu Shiyi and Shiyi Culture to speak out so quickly.
This makes their public relations efforts seem like feeble attempts at sophistry.
One minute they're accusing Zhou Linna of plagiarism, the next they're saying the lyricist and composer stole someone else's work and sold it to them.
Even so, it's impossible to convince everyone.
But this is all they can do now.
Zhou Linna was rebuffed by Luo Qianqian and returned to the company to await its arrangements.
After the company assigned the lyricist and composer to take the blame, they saw that the online arguments were still fierce, so they asked the manager, An Yang, for help.
"Do I need to retweet the songwriter's Weibo post, or issue a statement?"
"Don't say anything, don't do anything," the agent, An Yang, said with a headache.
If she hadn't disobeyed orders and acted recklessly, he wouldn't be in this mess.
Luo Qianqian did not accept her apology. Now they were making the lyricist and composer take the blame, but Shiyi Culture would definitely not accept that.
If they make any further moves, he really won't be able to save her.
The other side had prepared everything meticulously, step by step, giving them no chance to breathe.
As expected, Fu Shiyi's fans simply didn't believe their statements and public relations efforts.
They all forwarded Lin Zhou's apology statement, along with various sarcastic remarks and comments.
[Hello, scapegoat.]
[How much did you pay for this pot?]
[This is not a very professional way to take the blame.]
[Ms. Zhou is really good at shifting blame.]
[They released an album claiming "Alluring Time" was her own composition, but now they're saying the lyricist and composer stole it and sold it to her. Who believes that? I certainly don't.]
...
Fu Shiyi's fans are asking questions under the official Weibo account of Huashang Culture.
[Didn't Zhou Linna say that she wrote both of these songs?]
[Where's the singer-songwriter I was promised?]
[They found a scapegoat so quickly, that's fast!]
I don't believe a single punctuation mark in your statement.
[They even dared to steal our Third Young Master's songs, that's impressive.]
...
The statement has been issued, and the lyricist and composer have been held accountable.
However, such public relations efforts had absolutely no effect on Fu Shiyi's enraged fans.
After reading the statements from Fu Shiyi and Shiyi Culture, they concluded that Zhou Linna had plagiarized Luo Qianqian's work.
Less than an hour after Lin Zhou and Huashang Culture's official Weibo account issued their statements, Luo Qianqian also released a statement.
Both "The Time of Beauty" and "You Are My Starlight" were written by me. "The Time of Beauty" was written last year when Ms. Zhou Linna and I were still studying at the same school. This song and several others were lost at school.
I joined my father in creating the film score and theme song for the movie "Half Awake". This led to me signing a contract to create some works for singers of Shiyi Culture. Not long ago, I was commissioned by Mr. Fu Shiyi to create his fifth anniversary commemorative song "You Are My Starlight". At this time, Mr. Lin Zhou seemed to have left Shiyi Culture more than a month ago.
How did Mr. Lin Zhou manage to obtain the manuscript of "The Allure of Time" from my school over a year and a half? And how did he manage to sneak into Shiyi Culture and obtain the manuscript of "You Are My Starlight" just over a month after leaving his job?
This statement made Lin Zhou and Huashang Culture's public relations efforts appear even more flawed.
