Listen to this, does this sound like human language? They actually accused him of plagiarism.
He wrote a science fiction novel based on his own experiences. After all, he had been to the interstellar era.
"You're so unprofessional, how could you even plagiarize an article by a master?"
"Exactly, and it's fortunate that you only put it on the campus network. If you had put it on a website, you probably would have been sued."
"What a piece of trash in the literary world."
"Delete it immediately, stop writing it."
"·····"
Ning Hong stared at the comments in astonishment, feeling somewhat frustrated.
This wasn't the first time he had made a living by writing.
He has published many works, including collections of short stories and novels.
It has even been made into animated films, movies, and TV series.
The latest source of funding is a game company that approached him, wanting to adapt one of his short stories into a game, with a very substantial copyright fee.
However, it has been more than two years since then.
Ning Hong used the royalties to buy several houses and shops, and then he stopped writing much. He devoted himself to being a student. He had experienced many worlds and been a student many times, but before becoming a mission taker, his educational level was not high.
After all, Fang Liang was an orphan, and he was no longer alive.
Even if he wanted to continue his studies, there was nothing he could do.
This time, it was also a sudden whim of his that he wanted to write the story of interstellar travel. However, since he was not short of money, he did not write it on the website as before, but changed his pen name and wrote it directly on the campus network.
Updated irregularly.
I've only updated to around 100,000 words so far, and then this happened.
This is his past story, so it's definitely not plagiarism.
He didn't want to argue with people; he couldn't very well tell them that this was something that happened when he traveled to the interstellar era.
People will think he's crazy.
What can we do?
Anyway, he was just writing for fun, so let it be. At worst, he can just delete the post.
Since it was posted on the campus network and didn't involve any vested interests, Ning Hong didn't bother arguing with him. He simply deleted the novel.
It doesn't matter, I just won't write it.
Ning Hong originally thought that the matter was over, but unexpectedly, the other party was unwilling to let it go.
Just a week after Ning Hong deleted the post, someone doxxed him and posted his real identity on the campus website.
Ning Hongze: "..."
Just after news broke that he was preparing to run for student council president—
"How can someone like that be elected student council president?"
"Exactly, you plagiarist, get out of here."
"Ning Hongze, aren't you ashamed?"
Ning Hong had just stepped into the classroom when she sensed that the people inside were acting strangely.
"Ning Hongze, if you like copying so much, why don't you copy these assignments for me too?"
A male student threw a stack of homework on his desk.
Do we have that much homework?
How could he not know?
"Hey, I'll pay you to copy the homework of the students from the high school next door." The man grinned. "Since you like copying anyway, why don't you copy mine for me? It's better than you copying other people's work."
Ning Hong looked at him for a while, then swept all the homework on the table onto the floor.
"I didn't plagiarize, and I don't like plagiarizing."
"You didn't plagiarize? If you didn't plagiarize, why would they expose you?" This person was furious when he saw Ning Hongze's lack of respect, so he grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
Ning Hong was nearly 1.8 meters tall, and this man was a good half a head taller than him, and much more muscular. Especially with his fierce-looking brows and glaring eyes, he looked particularly menacing.
"Beat him up, give him a good beating, and see if he dares to plagiarize again!"
Some students egged them on, saying they loved watching the drama unfold.
"No, they've already deleted the post, there's no need to make a fuss anymore." Some people encouraged the matter to escalate, while others wanted to settle things quietly.
"What exactly happened?" Ning Hong grabbed the male classmate's hand and pried it open. "Don't get handsy. Be a civilized person, okay?"
"you--"
The male student realized something was wrong. Ning Hongze seemed to be quite strong. When Ning Hongze held his hand just now, he had no ability to resist at all.
"What's wrong? Do you really want to fight me?"
"Pah, I don't want to fight with you."
Seeing that Ning Hong seemed genuinely unaware of what had happened, someone opened the campus network and pointed it out to him, saying, "Look, you've become famous for plagiarism."
Ning Hong glanced at it and frowned.
Is he being taken advantage of because he's kind-hearted?
I didn't want to cause trouble, but this trouble still came knocking on my door.
"I already said I didn't plagiarize. I wrote it myself."
Ning Hong then took out a thin laptop from her backpack.
His computer skills were already quite good, and he directly found out the person who exposed his true identity.
Who is Zhu Yu?
He asked a question, but no one answered him; everyone looked at him with a hint of mockery.
"No one is willing to answer? Fine, then I'll find it myself."
"That guy is the most handsome guy in the Information Science department, a sophomore, and he's competing with you for the position of student council president."
The student who had answered earlier turned away, but another voice rang out, quietly answering from behind Ning Hongze.
Ning Hong turned around and saw a boy wearing black-rimmed glasses who looked slightly timid.
Seeing Ning Hong turn around, he quickly lowered his head, feeling somewhat uneasy.
"Who said I was going to run for student council president? I have no interest in it at all." He's busy taking care of his child every day. Student council positions don't pay salaries and take up a lot of time. He doesn't care about the position at all.
He wasn't even aware that the student council was going to re-elect its president, let alone anything else.
"You don't want to?"
This answer surprised many people. "You're not saying you don't want to be selected because you can't be elected, are you?"
“I didn’t even sign up. I have to take care of my child, how could I have time to deal with student council matters?”
"Even if you didn't register, it doesn't change the fact that you plagiarized."
The person who had provoked him first said that he inexplicably became a little scared after just one look from Ning Hong.
Damn it, this man is shorter and thinner than him, and he looks terrifying.
"I want to make a solemn statement now: I did not plagiarize. That novel is my original work. I deleted the post simply because I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, not because I was cowardly."
Ning Hong then directly sent a virus, which blocked Zhu Yu's post. This person is utterly inexplicable.
