Chapter 059

“Brother Ji, look! Xu Ziming has been on the hot search, and it has something to do with plagiarism!”

Baozi had heard about the night of the exchange banquet. Xu Ziming took the initiative to find Ji Li to make trouble. The meeting between the two was not happy.

In addition, a month ago, their front and rear officials announced their respective endorsements, and the two fans secretly had conflicts because of the brand's position and sales volume.

So, from the actors, to the team and then to the fans, it can be regarded that both sides has a state of disagreement with each other.

As an assistant, Baozi is of course dedicated to Ji Li.

At this moment, he just took a glance at the hot search topic, and he didn't even have time to eat melons, so he handed his mobile phone to the youth.

After sucking the last bite of noodles, Ji Li moved his eyes to look, “What happened? How could he have anything to do with plagiarism?”

The 19th most searched, impressively printed the topic of #Xu Ziming Endorsement Plagiarism#.

Ji Li took the phone, clicked on the first summary Weibo in the hot search, and read it carefully.

The opposite Qin Yue heard the discussion between the two and opened his own mobile and Weibo silently.

The sub-brand of Nokolan is also the Fenlan jewelry endorsed by Xu Ziming. This season's flagship necklace has caused plagiarism. And this matter was personally exposed on Weibo by the original designer!

There is a very detailed explanation in the original designer's Weibo.

Five months ago, the original designer Yun Jing received an email from the person in charge of Fenlan's design department, saying that she wanted to hire her as a product designer for the new quarter.

Work from home and pay daily salary.

If the original necklace designed is approved by the company's senior management, the copyright of the necklace will be bought at the market price, and a dividend of the sales amount will be given every quarter.

Fenlan was named under the luxury brand Nokolan at any rate. After thinking about it for a while, designer Yun Jing readily accepted their invitation.

Then, she started the three-month design.

Just two months ago, Yun Jing handed over the necklace products and creative ideas she designed to the brand, but she was met with successive revision requests from the other party.

However, every time a modified product is still not 100% approved by the other party.

After five and three tossings, Yun Jing felt that the product she had designed had deviated from the original concept.

So, she was exhausted physically and mentally, and proposed to Fenlan to terminate the contract. The latter regretfully agreed, and also gave her a certain compensation salary.

When Yun Jing quit work, the WeChat group that communicated with each other was as if the cooperation between the two parties had passed.

It just so happened that at that time, the designer friends said that they wanted to set up a jewelry studio belonging to them.

Yun Jing thought about it, and took the necklace she originally designed as the main product of the studio.

But unexpectedly, their studio just launched a new product half a month ago and was accused of plagiarism by netizens.

Obviously her work is the original, where does plagiarism come from?

After Yun Jing asked, she discovered that Fenlan launched the ownership product that was highly similar to her own design a month and a half ago!

In order to ensure the authenticity of the comparison, Yun Jing specially placed an order to purchase one. As a result, when the necklace was taken home and compared, she was completely dumbfounded.

The materials of the necklace are the same, the overall design is the same, and the details of the design are almost unchanged. Even the design instructions included in the necklace gift box are also added to the material instructions she sent up!

At this level of similarity, it is not an exaggeration to describe it directly as ‘plagiarism’.

The only difference is that the other party launched new products earlier than them.

Yun Jing suppressed her anger in her heart, and contacted Fenlan's headquarters with a piece of mail. She waited patiently for a whole week, only in exchange for the other side's not serious sentence.

“Ms. Yun, our cooperation has ended. All products of the company are original designs. Thank you for your feedback.”

Although he said so on the surface, the person in charge of Fenlan took the initiative to send a sum of money to Yunjing’s account in private, and then threatened her.

The design and design costs have been separated, so that she should not make unreasonable troubles, otherwise she will maintain the brand's interests through legal channels, and her studio will soon be close down.

At this moment, Yun Jing was very angry.

It was useless to find the headquarters of a small company, and Yun Jing went directly to the headquarters of Nokolan. The latter's reply came quickly, saying that he would definitely investigate carefully.

After another three days, Nokolan gave Yun Jing a reply, and they said; The person in charge of Fenlan has already explained the situation. The design they made is absolutely original and that the newly established small studio is just coming to touch porcelain, so don't bother.

Yun Jing was completely angered by this kind of rogue attitude of not admitting their wrong, and even arrogantly shut her down.

A ‘good intention’ compensation salary, plus a post-incident ‘hush money’, just want to cover up your bad behavior of plagiarism?

Although independent original designers, they really can't resist a company. However, the unwilling Yun Jing still exposed Fenlan's plagiarism on Weibo.

In order to expand her influence, she added the name of Xu Ziming, the spokesperson, in front of the text.

As a result, before the reading volume of this Weibo increased, Yun Jing was vilified by Xu Ziming's fans, and even reported to be blocked and deleted by fans one after another.

Yun Jing watched her efforts being stolen, and watched the swearing by millions of fans in the private messages on Weibo, her mentality almost collapsed.

However, fortunately, an entertainment marketing account finally saw this and reposted her Weibo.

In less than a day, this Weibo miraculously waited until a series of marketing accounts were reposted, and it suddenly became a hot search.

Qin Yue seemed to be aware of something, and said at the right time, “These marketing accounts look like those that belonging to Mengguo Studio.”

“Mengguo Studio? Are they related to Xu Ziming?” Ji Li shook his head in confusion.

To be honest, he didn't think that Xu Ziming, who was developing into the TV circle, was even matched to be his opponent, so he would not dare look at him.

“I know this question!” Baozi suddenly raised his hand cleverly and took the initiative to answer. “Xu Ziming is casted in a small-explosive costume comedy. The hero is Yan Chengjun under Mengguo Studio. The two fans had torn it several times in the first place.”

Fans of Yan Chengjun believe that Xu Ziming, the second male second was trying to outshine their idol during the promotion period; Xu Ziming's fans blamed the former for not being popular, and it was useless for the male lead role to be given to him.

[ Dream Media is not picking up at this moment. I heard that there are resources to feed him. Recently, in order to snatch the male lead of the same modern drama, it has started to confuse people again. ]

“It's just a small explosion of a TV series, and the nostrils are almost upturned.” Baozi snorted.

Ji Li looked at Qin Yue and asked clearly, “Fenlan was hit by hot searches this time, is Mengguo deliberately doing it? Is it to tear the spokesperson Xu Ziming into the water?”

Then, so that Yan Chengjun successfully won the male lead of the new TV series.

Qin Yue said bluntly, “Do not rule out this possibility.”

Otherwise, just relying on such a row of marketing accounts to forward, and there are no fans and passersby deliberately creating momentum topics, if there is no secretly spending money to operate, in fact, it will not be a hot search.

“But as soon as this hot search is on, there are more netizens and passersby?” Baozi's eyes rolled, “Brother Ji, Xu Ziming deliberately targeted you before? Shall we also...”

Ji Li guessed Baozi's intentions, and immediately pinched his upper and lower lips to signal not to cause trouble.

“No need, no matter how troubled this matter is, it is also a dispute between the brand and the original designer. As long as Xu Ziming doesn't choose the wrong choice, the relationship can be cleared up in the end.”

If they disturb the muddy water from it, if they are discovered by the opposing team, they will only make them fishy.

Ji Li thought thoroughly and bluntly, “This is the entertainment industry. If Xu Ziming and his fans have been unaware of convergence, even if the stakes can be avoided this time, something will happen next time.”

He just wanted to walk his own way, disdain to take the initiative to harm others. Of course, if someone makes a him a target, he will strike back mercilessly like the previous few times.

When Qin Yue heard the words, a faint admiration appeared between his eyebrows and eyes.

This young man lives more thoroughly than ordinary stars of the same age. He knows how to avoid, but also know how to fight back, know how to give up but to also gain momentum.

“Brother Ji, I was wrong.” Baozi admitted his mistake as expected.

In the next second, Xu Ziming’s associated Weibo popped up on Weibo Hot Search, and the latter’s team posted a new Weibo, suspected of responding to the plagiarism of the endorsement product.

[ Whether it is in the past or in the future, the team will uphold Mr. Xu Ziming's wishes and only cooperate with brand companies that adhere to the moral heart.

As an internationally well-known brand, we firmly believe that all the designs under our company adhere to professional ethics. We also ask the irrelevant personnel to stop unnecessarily spreading rumors and delete the false Weibo. Otherwise, our team will jointly file a lawsuit with the brand. ]

The party Xu Ziming quickly forwarded it.

The attitude of himself and the team has clearly shown that they are on the side of the brand.

Qin Yue shook his head, and gave a fair comment, “It's so stupid.”

Not to mention the truth and falsehood of Yun Jing's revelation. In order to please the brand business, Xu Ziming's team actually rushed to make a stand before the other party made a statement?

Do they think they can cooperate with the brand for a long time in this way? Will it be favored by the headquarter Nokolan?

Furthermore, if Yun Jing produces stronger evidence to prove that Fenlan's plagiarism is true, they, as public figures, can definitely absorb a large wave of firepower.

In other words, they are likely to be used as guns by the brand.

Baozi clicked on the comments. In addition to the timely control and comments from the front row fans, some disputes have already appeared in the back.

[ Haha, foreign moons are always rounder? Does this speak for the brand side? ]

[ Which foreign moon is entirely a domestic brand, thinking that it can change its name under the name of a foreign luxury brand? Dare to buy a thousand yuan for a plagiarized necklace? ]

[ Mingming said that the brand did not plagiarize, so it did not plagiarize! The black fans and other fans are getting out! Is the disgusting false evidence of the original designer not hot enough? A few drawings alone can prove plagiarism? ]

[ That is, it is clear that they are plagiarizing and touching porcelain! Unconditionally support Mingming baby! ]

[ Don’t think I don’t know which fans are the yin and yang fans in the comments! The small workshop perfume endorsed by your own home, be careful of your face and skin after using it! ]

[ Let's be harder! The endorsement of our family is better than a small domestic workshop! ]

When Baozi saw this comment, he couldn't help but cursed, “What the hell? They even related it to your good fans? One bite of a small domestic workshop, so vigorous as the endorsement, I think you clearly envy and hate it, right?!”

Our Brother Ji’s commercial was filmed by director Berry Adolf!

The endorsement of our brother Ji sold out as soon as the official announcement! And by relying on the advertising video alone, our brother Ji has gained at least 600,000 fans.

For now, don’t you feel ashamed when comparing the two endorsement topics on the hot search? Don't you feel ashamed?!

It's funny!

Baozi frantically passed Ji Li praises and comments in his heart, and before he was completely relieved, he received a call from Yu Fuya.

Qin Yue sat down and searched Ji Li's Weibo secretly, and he found that someone was already deliberately picking things up.

Saying that the perfume bought before is pungent and unpleasant, that Ying's Perfume forged inspection certificate, and that the advertising video contains false marketing ingredients... are all deceiving consumers.

Not only is it a set of false claims, but even the fake pictures are made ‘very realistic’.

After Baozi answered the phone, his expression also became serious, “Brother Qin, Sister Yu asked us to go back first after we finished eating. It's a small matter.”

Ji Li realized that something was wrong, and responded in a low voice, “Okay.”

He looked at Qin Yue, and heard the other's initiative to say.

“Go ahead. Your next focus is on this movie. Don't be influenced by the outside world. If you need help, just tell me.”

Qin Yue could probably guess why Yu Fuya hurriedly told them to go back.

“Okay, Brother Qin.”

“Thank you Teacher Qin Yue.”

─────────────────────

The two quickly returned to the room and were immediately informed of the problem of ‘rumour-making’ splashing of dirty water on the Internet.

A staff member stared at the real-time data on the hot search reserve, “Someone started to scan the data for Brother Ji's malicious entry.”

“This perfume advertisement went viral when it went online, and it was so sour that some people couldn't tolerate it. They didn't take care of their own mess, so now they start to toss us in a hurry?”

Yu Fuya sneered disdainfully.

The matter at this moment is like a mirror in their hearts who is moving their hands and feet in secret.

“Contact the company to announce the withdrawal of heat. In addition, fans in our official data group are waiting. If this black entry is really hot searched, it will be suppressed as soon as possible. I will call Song Lan of Dream Media now...”

Before Yu Fuya had finished speaking, Ji Li, who was sitting on the sofa, spoke, “Sister Yu, I don't think it is necessary.”

“What's wrong?”

Ji Li raised the page in his hand, “Original designer Yun Jing posted various plagiarisms on Weibo, and the evidence is solid.”

This time, not only the Fenlan brand, but also the spokesperson Xu Ziming could not escape being held accountable.

When everyone heard Ji Li's words, they went to Yunjing's Weibo at the same place. Just five minutes ago, the other party posted a Weibo with all the evidence.

@Yun Jing: [ All the evidence has been sorted out and turned over for filing! The reason why I have not come up with complete evidence is that I want to see what the brand can show!

But what I didn't expect was that Mr. @Xu Ziming, as the spokesperson, jumped out of the station impatiently?

Excuse me, do you understand the truth?

Excuse me, do your fans understand the truth?

The Lord is posing as a righteous man, and fans wantonly insult others in the name of love for their artist, do you really think it’s okay?

For three days in a row, Xu Ziming's fans not only sent tens of thousands of private messages and cursed me, but even threatened my family with phone calls. Forgive me!

For the plagiarism of the works of the brand, I will sue!

I have taken screenshots of all the foul behaviors of Xu Ziming's fans, and I will also sue! ]

─────────────────────

In the twelve pictures below, in addition to the file photos of the filing and stamping, there are also the drafts designed by Yun Jing at the time, and the chats in the WeChat group of Fenlan!

Yun Jing's original awareness of prevention is very good. At the beginning, she chose to take screenshots of all the core chat messages with the other party.

In addition, the first version of the original design manuscript, she had sent the design manuscript to the instructor for viewing, and also retained the date and design concept.

All the evidence is too sorted and it does take some time to sort it out.

In addition, the three long pictures behind are all insults from Xu Ziming's fans.

Photos of fans' curses, photos of phone calls and her and her family's phone numbers, 24 hours of uninterrupted phone harassment, even mobile phone text messages are full of bad words.

The latest batch of insults appeared just an hour ago, that is, after Xu Ziming and the team issued a statement, fans probably have confidence, and the private messages sent are even more foul.

Brushing down a row, almost occupied by the word ‘dead’.

Like this, even the netizens who passed by eating melon were shocked.

What kind of grudge?

As for how to insult such a young female designer before ‘plagiarism’ has not been finalized? Besides, the other party is not trying to heat up anything at all, but is a real victim!

[ Tsk tsk, the fans are dead, and you have to have a degree in maintaining your idol, right? ]

[ Sorry Miss Sister! The studio’s online store seems to have been forcibly closed due to malicious complaints from fans! The necklace is so beautiful! ]

[ Xu Ziming's sorrowful operation is so disgusting, he will defend the brand regardless of the truth, and guide fans to tear the victim? Is this your stand as a spokesperson? ]

[ It's valuable. You want to gain the favor of Nokolan luxury brands through Fenlan's sub-brands, right? It's a pity that you don't even look at your snatched position. Does the brand even respect you? ]

[ Sorry, who is Xu Ziming? Before I clicked on the hot search, I really didn't know him. ]

[ The two necklaces cannot be said to be a bit similar, but they can only be said to be exactly the same. @Fenlan @Xu Ziming @Nokolan You should all come out and apologize! ]

Because of the words ‘plagiarism’ and other words that the public hates, the number of popular searches has risen rapidly.

This matter not only stayed in the entertainment circle, but has also spread to other industry circles, attracting countless people to watch the show and speak out.

And the designer from past cooperation came forward to prove that Fenlan’s Galaxy Bracelet series last season also used this method to plagiarize a set of her designs!

She complained twice and repeatedly, and was suppressed by the other side's forces, and finally had no choice but to stop.

Her financial resources and energy were exhausted. As a result, the plagiarism design of the sub-brand was favored and commended by the main brand ‘Nokolan’.

One stone caused a thousand waves.

Although the sub-brand of Fenlan was established not long ago, it could not hold up the popularity of the luxury brand of Nokolan!

In the past, we have scolded our domestic brands for being inferior, or copying?

Well now, foreign products plagiarize and plagiarize the works of our Chinese designers. As a result, as a Chinese, Xu Ziming actually took the lead in maintaining a plagiarized brand?

How vomiting!

It's all bad money!

The position of hot search is rising faster and faster, and the resistance of netizens is getting higher and higher. Xu Ziming and brand Weibo have been occupied by bad reviews.

Half an hour later, the official website of the Nocolan brand issued a statement.

[ As a century-old brand, we at Nokolan have always respected the efforts and interests of original designers, and have never done anything against the moral bottom line! The so-called 'sub-brand, Fenlan' was only awarded for three years after the initial review. Brand naming rights.

After complaints and investigation feedback from netizens, the headquarters of Nokolan Group has confirmed that Fenlan has violated the original contracting requirements and seriously affected the brand reputation. Therefore, it has decided to immediately terminate the cooperation. The details of the termination announcement will be published on the official website.

From now on, the Fenlan brand and its spokesperson, Mr. Xu Ziming, will no longer be related to our main brand, Nokolan. We apologize for the harm Ms. Yun Jing suffered. Out of humanitarian care, we are willing to give compensation privately.

Above, consumer supervision is welcome. ]

As soon as this statement came out, netizens immediately understood it.

The statement reposted by Xu Ziming in the afternoon was more like a joke, slapped himself in the face!

Nokolan is an internationally renowned brand, but what you endorse is Fenlan! To put it bluntly, it is a small domestic brand.

Nokolan has nothing to do with this incident, but Fenlan can't be separated from you! Brands are responsible for plagiarism, and you and your fans are responsible for online violence.

You and Nokolan jointly file a lawsuit? Sorry, the other party didn't recognize you as the spokesperson of the sub-brand at all, and even terminated the partnership with Fenlan!

Every sentence in the statement can be slapped? This wave of car rollovers is no one!

[ Hahahahaha If Xu Ziming is quiet as a chicken, he said this matter will definitely have nothing to do with him. As a result, him, the team, and his fans are all slapped in the face. Do you feel pain now? ]

[ I should say it! Xu Ziming acted in a short-lived costume drama last year and his fans thought he was a top-tier actor? Who gives you a big face when tearing up this male star and that cooperative team every day! ]

[ Be an honest man! There are so many good-looking and powerful stars in the entertainment industry, and I have never seen so many ridiculous artist and fans like this. ]

All the netizens ridiculed, but some fans did not give up, stood up and yelled and tried to change the subject.

[ Disgusting, a group of mobs who can only follow the trend and yell, has the final result come out? Who can not forge plagiarism evidence! I don’t know if I have been brought into the rhythm by someone with a heart! ]

[ Believe Mingming unconditionally! The opponent's methods are really nasty, and the small workshop perfume that he endorsed used a bad face in an attempt to divert attention and firepower! ]

[ @Ji Li @Ying's Perfume, no products, run out of bad face, fake sales, deceive consumers, you guys come out and explain to me! ]

It's a pity that they called for so long, and no Ji Li's fans came to comment on the argument.

Because in the latter’s official fan base, the staff has already given instructions.

No matter what happened to Xu Ziming's affairs, they could only quietly eat and watch the show, and could not end the dispute for the main protagonist, Ji Li.

Never give the opponent the opportunity to climb up!

Just when Xu Ziming fans and Ji Li's black fans continued to yell, a shocking piece of news fell, and they slapped their faces fiercely.

[ Ying's perfume brand won the crown in the ‘French Times Perfume’ contest! ]

[ This is the first award-winning Chinese brand perfume since the establishment of the contest! Its significance is extraordinary, not to be underestimated! ]

[ Huaguo CCTV, which has an absolute position, immediately commended Ying's Perfume on its official website, and at the end, it actively matched Ji Li's national style advertising video. ]

Many state-run official media have reposted it on Weibo, and the comments are exactly the same, with the character of a big country.

The fragrance of the country, the beauty of the people!
