"The plagiarism incident at the 15th Global Photography Competition has attracted widespread attention, and the investigation is still ongoing."
"This incident involves two photographers—Sun Kai, a well-known domestic photographer, and a promising newcomer who has won the gold medal at the International Photography Awards for two consecutive years."
"Between these two outstanding individuals, who is the real plagiarist?"
"With these questions in mind, our reporter had the privilege of interviewing Mr. Sun Kai, one of the parties involved. The following is the full content of this interview," the host said calmly.
Reporter: "First, I'd like to ask Mr. Sun, what are your thoughts on the striking similarity between your work and Mr. Huo's?"
Sun Kai replied with a serious expression, "Some young people these days are really restless and impatient."
"They become impatient for quick success and try to take shortcuts once they achieve a little success. I have always abhorred plagiarism. This behavior not only harms the rights of original creators, but also corrupts the entire industry."
"Therefore, I will resolutely defend my legitimate rights and interests in this matter and will never tolerate or compromise them."
"Only by resolving the issue through legal means can we give justice to those who are dedicated to the study of photographic art, and also ensure that those with ulterior motives receive the punishment they deserve."
The reporter then followed up with, "So, according to your understanding, can this incident be interpreted as Mr. Huo plagiarizing your work?"
Sun Kai: "Yes, I really don't know what methods he used! I just finished submitting my article, and he immediately followed suit."
"This is truly heartbreaking, but I sincerely hope that the public can give him a precious opportunity to repent and start anew."
"Hopefully, after this incident, he can truly take things one step at a time and conduct himself with integrity and honesty."
Sun Kai spoke eloquently to reporters, displaying a dignified and righteous demeanor.
......
"As of now, our reporter has not been able to make direct contact with Mr. Huo Chengyu, but we have successfully interviewed his assistant, Xiao Zhang," the host said.
The reporter asked, "Mr. Zhang, what is your opinion on the similarity between Mr. Huo's and Mr. Sun's works?"
Without hesitation, Xiao Zhang replied, "I firmly believe that Mr. Huo's character is absolutely reliable."
The reporter pressed further: "As far as we know, the photos submitted this time were actually taken by you. So how did you obtain these photos?"
Xiao Zhang said frankly, "I'm just a small assistant. Xiao Yu gave me those photos, and I naturally did as he asked."
The reporter persisted, continuing to ask questions: "So, during this process, did you notice anything unusual about Mr. Huo?"
Xiao Zhang glanced at his watch, his brow furrowing slightly. "Um... excuse me, I have some urgent business to attend to, so I must take my leave. I'm truly sorry!"
After saying that, he hurriedly left the scene.
The reporter and photographer exchanged bewildered glances. Xiao Zhang's departure also raised suspicions among many netizens, who wondered if it was a sign of guilt, pushing public opinion to a fever pitch.
Meanwhile, on the television screen, the host said with a serious expression, "As of now, Mr. Huo Chengyu has not responded to this incident. We wonder if he is confident of victory, or if he is afraid to speak out because he feels guilty? Our station will continue to follow this matter and bring you the latest updates. Please stay tuned!"

Huo Family Living Room
"Third Brother, why aren't you responding?" Huo Jinning asked, her face full of confusion.
"Don't be impatient, just wait a little longer. By tomorrow, the matter will attract even more attention and everyone will know. In that case, the charges against him will be even more serious. Hehe, we can also add a charge of defamation on him while we're at it!" Huo Chengyu said with a grin.
"Wow, Third Brother, you're so clever!" Huo Jinning's eyes shone with admiration.
"Hehe, it's alright." Huo Chengyu scratched his head shyly.
I was too embarrassed to say that it was also my older brother's idea, otherwise my younger sister would doubt my intelligence again. It's not easy to do something clever in front of my sister, so I can't reveal that it was my older brother's idea.
"So, we have to wait until tomorrow to explain? Won't that affect our company's stock?" Huo Jinning asked worriedly.
Of course, this wasn't addressed to Huo Chengyu, but rather to Huo Shan.
"It will certainly have some impact, but it's all within a controllable range. As long as we get through these two days and present our evidence, everything will return to normal," Huo Shan said calmly and composedly.
"That's good, otherwise my brother would be overwhelmed with work again. In our family, my brother is the hardest working, and he has to work overtime every day."
The words had barely left his mouth.
"Ningning is still the most considerate of me," Huo Nanchu said happily as she returned home from get off work.
"Brother, why are you leaving get off work so early today?"
Hearing that familiar voice, Huo Jinning, who was lost in thought, suddenly snapped back to reality, turned her head to look at the doorway, a look of surprise on her face, and asked.
Huo Nanchu stood there, his eyes flickering, as if he was deliberately hiding something.
However, this state only lasted for a moment before returning to normal.
"There wasn't much going on at the company today, so I came home early."
At dinner time, the whole family sat together, enjoying a happy time.
However, Huo Jinning seemed absent-minded. She mechanically put food into her mouth while secretly thinking about the things that were on her mind.
Finally, unable to contain her anxiety, she would eagerly pick up her phone to check the latest developments whenever she had a spare moment.
When Huo Jinning saw some offensive comments, she couldn't help but get angry and started a heated online debate with those who made the remarks.
And so, he met a netizen online who had a similar experience to hers, and this person actually argued with someone for an entire night!
Perhaps because they had common topics, the two of them even added each other as WeChat friends!
Interestingly, this new friend is also a die-hard fan of Huo Chengyu! He has absolute faith in Huo Chengyu's character!
So, when the sunlight streamed through the window the next morning, our poor protagonist was sitting at the dining table eating breakfast, sporting huge "panda eyes," yawning repeatedly, and still sleepy.
Perhaps she was just too tired. She struggled to keep her eyes open, quickly finished her meal, and then eagerly climbed back into bed to enjoy her second nap!
