Chapter 294 Begonia and Zhou Tang are the same author?
Chen Tang already knew what happened. Recently, there was a lot of noise in the newspapers because of plagiarism, and two editors also called her.
She poured Director Li a glass of water: "Don't worry."
Director Li: "How can we not be anxious? Although everyone knows that the author Qiu Haitang plagiarized yours, he has a lot of fans. If it really gets out of hand, everyone's attention will be drawn to the plagiarism, and we won't see our article. What should we do?"
Chen Tang was helpless: "You have already said that she plagiarized me, and we are fine. Go ahead and make a fuss. I will clarify it in two days."
"What do you want to clarify?" Director Li's heart, which had just been relieved, began to hang in the air again.
"The same writing style does not mean the content is the same. If it were really the same, how could it be discovered only now? It was discovered when it was published. Clarification is naturally to help the other party clarify."
"Ah?" Director Li hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually... this is quite beneficial to us."
He came in a hurry, naturally hoping to take advantage of this popularity to promote their newly developed products.
Chen Tang also understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know what you mean, and I will definitely satisfy you this time."
Director Li finally breathed a sigh of relief: "With your help, I'm naturally not worried."
Shen Tang didn't believe this, but she didn't hit Zhong Deng in the face.
Director Li is a nice person. He is not the kind of person who just occupies a position but dares not do any real work, but he is also good at scheming.
After Director Li left, He Xu came back and told Chen Tang what he had done.
Chen Tang was very surprised: "I was wondering why Tian Xiaotian's fans suddenly published provocations in the newspaper. This time, the quarrel between Qiu Haitang and Zhou Tang's two pseudonymous fans must have been the idea of the person behind Tian Xiaotian."
He Xu raised the corners of his lips slightly: "You guessed who it is?"
Chen Tang stroked his chin, his eyes smiling: “Although Aunt Liu hates me, she has just arrived in Hai City and does not have many connections.”
"Many people in the family compound knew that Tian Xiaotian went to see Director Xu, and Director Xu did not agree to let her join the Propaganda Department. But she was still so proud and arrogant. In addition, her experience of writing about reality in her articles happened to match Tian Xiaotian. Tiantian was definitely her, so she was able to publish because of Director Xu's connections."
"Director Xu and Director Liang are both from Hai City. They have been competing for a long time. Director Xu came after me this time not only to avenge her niece for reporting me but also because I almost sent her to jail. She may also want to support Tian Xiaotian to compete with me. After all, the promotion of the new fertilizer on the farm bypassed them directly."
"If I'm not mistaken, Director Xu should want to let Tian Xiaotian publish a few articles first, and then recruit her into the Propaganda Department. After a few months, she will reveal Zhou Tang's pseudonym. In this way, Tian Xiaotian will be a member of the military region, and I can only be regarded as her former colleague. She can let Tian Xiaotian come forward and say that I plagiarized her articles when I joined the Propaganda Department."
He Xu's dark eyes sank slightly. "New China has just been established for more than 30 years. Everyone trusts the government and the military. Tian Xiaotian occupies the position of a civilian in the military region. No matter what she says, people will believe her."
Xu Guifen certainly knew that Tian Xiaotian could not produce evidence that Chen Tang plagiarized her, but what if, as the director of the Propaganda Department, she said something ambiguous and biased towards Tian Xiaotian?
The military district would not help Shen Tang clarify things just for a small matter.
What's more, Chen Tang's background is already strong, and he is sensitive to bullying at this time.
Tian Xiaotian's inability to produce any evidence has only led to more wild speculation among people.
And Chen Tang had no way to prove that he did not plagiarize.
Once the water becomes muddy, the pen name Zhou Tang will be ruined.
This is the lesson Director Xu wants to teach Shen Tang.
He Xu pursed his lips tightly, and suddenly thought of the articles that Chen Tang had collected from Tian Xiaotian.
"So you have already guessed Director Xu's plan?"
Chen Tang shook his head: "I'm not that amazing, I'm just making some second-hand preparations."
If He Xu hadn't been so upset that he accidentally made a fuss about it, Director Xu, for the sake of Tian Xiaotian, would have deliberately provoked her two pen-name fans to help her calm down her anger, which made her vaguely aware of Director Xu's calculations behind the scenes. She had previously thought that Director Xu wanted to use Tian Xiaotian to attack Director Liang.
He Xu pinched her face, his starry eyes smiling: "So do you have a way to fight back?"
Chen Tang threw herself into his arms and pinched his ears with her hands: “Yes, but I need my husband’s help.”
He Xu tightened his grip on her waist, his red lips lingering beside her ears: "Scream again."
Chen Tang glared at him with such seductive eyes that He Xu was almost captivated.
"My solution is that if the other party wants to plot against me, then I will cut off her connections. Tian Xiaotian blatantly plagiarized, and a newspaper dared to accept it. Then, as the executioner, can the newspaper be exempted from responsibility by simply apologizing?"
"I will write an article using this newspaper as the prototype. Whenever someone mentions their newspaper, they will think of plagiarism. Then, even if anyone dares to help Director Xu, he will definitely be accused, even if he cannot be fired. He will never dare to help Director Xu again!"
He Xu's hand quietly moved to her waist, his dark eyes dimmed: "What do you want me to help you with?"
Chen Tang slapped his hand away: "What are you doing in broad daylight? Help me stir up this matter a little more and draw everyone's attention to Tian Xiaotian."
He Xu put down his hand a little disappointedly: "Okay."
Chen Tang leaned over and kissed him on the face. He Xu was about to chase her red lips when He Zhi's cheerful laughter suddenly came from outside: "Mom and Dad, Xiaobao is hungry, what are you going to eat for lunch?"
The little guy had been playing with some other kids in the yard. When he came in, he saw two of them sitting on the sofa, one of them covering his face with a newspaper and the other one staring at him with an unhappy look. He walked over without understanding anything and when he saw that his father looked unhappy, he decisively climbed onto his mother's lap with a smile.
He Xu slapped him on the butt.
He Zhi pouted and snorted: "Mom, Dad hit me again, I didn't do anything wrong today!"
Chen Tang held back his laughter, picked up the child and put him on the ground: "Go drink some water, you look tired and sweaty."
The little guy scratched his head. Although he was not thirsty, he still followed his mother's instructions and went to the kitchen to get his own small cup.
Seeing this, He Xu leaned over and kissed Chen Tang on the lips, then happily went to the kitchen to cook.
Two days after this incident, He Xu had someone publish an article in the newspaper, which first vaguely speculated that Qiu Haitang and Zhou Tang might be the same author.
Later it was mentioned that this was originally a case of plagiarism caused by the author Tiantian, but now she has completely disappeared. Is it possible that she saw the situation was not good and deliberately provoked the fans of the two groups to fight with each other?
