Chapter 14: Plagiarism (Part 1)

Zou Yun walked to the vending machine, inserted coins, and took drinks. I opened it and took a sip, I felt much better.
After hearing that Yunyi owed a large debt, she determined to act well. Earn more money to help Yunyi pay off his debts as soon as possible.
No matter how difficult acting is, you have to bite the bullet.
But she has no interest in the work outside of acting, such as how to hype, choose scripts, and discuss topics.
She thought, stay outside for a while, wait until the two of them have discussed about it, then go back.
Standing in front of the vending machine, Zou Yun suddenly heard a voice coming next to him.
Zou Yun looked around.
She was standing near the elevator, next to the producer’s workplace, very quiet.
The sound came from the safe passage on the far left, getting louder and louder, and seemed to be about to quarrel.
Zou Yun was okay, walking over curiously, leaning against the wall at the door and listening to the corner.
The voice gradually became clear.
The female voice implied grievances and was very excited, "I submitted the manuscript in the mailbox, and your reply to me said it was a plagiarism manuscript and refused to accept it. This script was written by me so hard. Conception, design conflict, character image, emotional trend, It took more than half a year before and after, how could it be plagiarism? I have to ask for an explanation."
The male voice was very helpless, "Miss, you have come to the company for the third time. I told you before that two days before your submission, someone submitted a script similar to yours. To tell you the truth, the plots of the two scripts are slightly different. A little change, but the similarity rate is at least 80% or more. It’s just that you are a double male lead, and she is a single male lead. You said the script was written by you hard, and the screenwriter also said that the script was her painstaking effort. Who should I believe? What?"
The female voice said stubbornly, "I didn't lie. If it's not a coincidence, then she copied me."
The male voice said, "Okay, let me believe that she copied you. What about the evidence? You take out the evidence, and I immediately respond to the superior, add you to it, and disqualify her from the competition."
Deathly silence.
The male voice continued, "You can't show evidence, can you? Miss, don't embarrass me. There is no evidence, except you and the screenwriter in this world, how can anyone else in this world tell who is plagiarizing whom, or is it an amazing coincidence? "
The girl said with a cry, "How can there be such a coincidence! The similarity rate is 80%, and it's not just the core stalk!"
The male voice asked, "Then what do you want me to do? Believe you immediately and reject her? This is unrealistic. I can only choose who to stay based on your submission time. To blame, blame you for submitting later than her. Two days."
"Heh, is it wrong to revise the manuscript carefully and repeatedly before submission?"
"From my point of view, late submissions are more likely to be plagiarized. I can't tell who is plagiarizing who, so I choose the person who submits first."
After a while, there was a low sob.
The male voice comforted and said, "Forget it, eat a bite to gain a wiser. You are good, I just returned the script to you, no one else knows about it. There used to be an unlucky ghost who was plagiarized against plagiarism. The slander is slandered, and there is still no evidence to show, so I can only swallow the bitterness in my stomach and get scolded. Later, the plagiarist gets drunk and leaks his lips, and the original creator is innocent. If you really are the one who was plagiarized, Hear my persuasion, let’s feed the dog for half a year. In the future, keep a little memory, and it’s not uncommon for scripts to be plagiarized. Write a good script, you know it alone, don’t tell other people, don’t show it to others ."
"I, I didn't show it to others! Only my girlfriend..."
The female voice stopped abruptly.
The male voice sighed, "You just graduated, not long after you left school, you don't know the society, it will be sinister. Of course, most of the people who have the opportunity to cheat you are acquaintances. How can strangers have the opportunity to know these things."
After a pause, the male voice said, "Long snacks, don't come here anymore. If you pester me, I can't find evidence of your innocence. I will go downstairs to buy a cup of coffee. Later, you can leave by yourself."
The sound of footsteps sounded, gradually walking away.
The only thing that doesn't change is the sob in the ear.
When the footsteps disappeared, the girl burst into tears, as if to vent all the grievances in her heart.

Zou Yun returned to the vending machine, bought an iced coke, opened the door of the safe passage, and saw the girl squatting on the ground crying.
So she walked to the girl and put an iced Coke on the girl's face, "Calm down, crying won't solve the problem."
The girl shivered coldly.
Raising his head, he found that there was a big handsome than looking at him, he was so scared that he was paralyzed on the ground, and quickly wiped his tears and nose with his sleeves, "Yes, but I don't cry, nor can I solve or solve the problem."
Zou Yun took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and threw it to the girl, put the iced coke on the ground, "take it."
The girl turned her back and wiped her face with a tissue. I was upset in my heart. I knew someone was next to me, so I stopped crying like a snake.
"You just graduated? What's your name?" Zou Yun asked.
The girl cleaned her face, turned her head, and answered honestly, "My name is Wang Ningyao, I just graduated from university."
Zou Yun looked at the girl's face carefully, she was a little fat, but her facial features were beautiful and she looked fat. He is overweight and looks lack of exercise.
Wang Ningyao was looking hairy. She has always liked living in a house, but in reality she has never had close contact with such a handsome person.
What's more, the face of shame was all seen by the other party.
"What's your name? Is it the staff here?"
"My name is Zou Yun, I am a young actor, come to interview for a new drama." Zou Yun leaned back against the wall and looked down at Wang Ningyao.
Zou Yun? Wang Ningyao chanted her name again, feeling familiar.
Suddenly, she cried out, "Zou Yun? The Zou Yun who played Yunyi's attendant?"
No wonder she felt familiar.
"En." Zou Yun admitted.
At the same time, she was a little surprised, but she didn't expect that someone knew her name.
She thought she was an inconspicuous little supporting actor.
Wang Ningyao realized that she was out of state, and said embarrassedly, "I write scripts myself, so I usually like to follow dramas. Analyze the emotional dramas, foreshadowings, lines, etc. of red dramas. Then write a summary and analysis, which will help me write Good script."
Zou Yun said in his heart that if what Wang Ningyao said is true, a girl who works so hard is not like a person who can copy.
Moreover, she likes to chase dramas, she often stays in the house, often sits in a chair, and it is indeed easy to get fat.
It sounds like there is no contradiction in the words.
The most important point is that Wang Ningyao's description is a bit familiar.
Zou Yun continued to ask, "You just said that you had read the script for your girlfriend? Do you know a girl named Chen? You are about the same age as you, and she just left school."
Wang Ningyao said blankly, "My best friend is Chen Zhixia..."
In a daze, she seemed to understand something, and suddenly felt cold in her hands and feet.
If the other script is really the work of Chen Zhixia...
Thinking of this, she asked anxiously, "Is the screenwriter who told me the script is called Chen Zhixia? Did she laugh with two small dimples on her cheeks?"
Zou Yun glanced at her and said lightly, "I just ran into it when I was in the conference room, and I saw one. But I didn't look at her face, I didn't know if there was any dimples, and I didn't remember the full name. Anyway, my surname is Chen and I just left school. About your age, female."
Wang Ningyao was lost in despair and collapsed on the ground, "The surname is Chen, a girl about the same age as me who just came out of school. Besides, my script was plagiarized, and she was the only one who had seen the script. Apart from her, what other possibilities are there? ."
Speaking of this, she already believed that it was her best friend who stabbed her in the back.
Otherwise, how does the script flow out?
There is no other reasonable explanation.
When her friend betrayed her, and the effort was taken away, Wang Ningyao looked around at a loss.
Just now, a man told her that he couldn't prove his innocence if no evidence was shown for plagiarism. Maybe, there is a danger of being beaten upside down.
Growing up, she had never encountered such a thing before, so was the society so terrible?
"I have a penguin record that passed the electronic manuscript to her, is it evidence?" Wang Ningyao suddenly thought.
She didn't want to be like the miserable hostess, crying while asking her friend why she betrayed her, she guessed it. Anyway, there are just a few reasons.
In order to get ahead as soon as possible, for fame, for money.
If a friend really plagiarizes, she doesn't want to know the reason, she just wants revenge.
To know that in the field of screenwriting, in addition to the reputation of the work, the reputation of character is also very important.
Screenwriters who have had plagiarism incidents are generally forced to change their careers.
Because no matter how well the script is written, the producer can't believe it or buy it-what if it is plagiarized again? After spending a lot of money to film a TV series, the original creator finds a lawsuit, the follow-up will be very troublesome.
Zou Yun was silent. In fact, she didn't know how to do it.
She just instinctively felt that a copyist would not be so desperate, crying in tears.
Plagiarism means that the script was easily obtained from others.
Plagiarists do not understand the originality. In order to come up with a fun plot, clever design, racking their brains, can't help but pull their hair.
What's more is the mentality of "It's best to be able to fire, even if you can't, anyway, I haven't thought about it."
After all, it's not something that I painstakingly wrote, and it doesn't hurt to ruin it.
She chose to stand up and talk to Wang Ningyao, not only because of sympathy, but also because Yun Yi is likely to choose to film the script of a girl surnamed Chen.
Just now in the conference room, she noticed that Yunyi had clearly expressed her appreciation for the script.
Because he owed a lot of stock debts, Yunyi often worked overtime and filmed, just to make more money to pay off the debt.
In her memory, after filming the costume drama, Yunyi rushed to the film crew non-stop, and then took over filming modern dramas after the event, with no rest time at all.
At such an important moment, if he accidentally shoots a plagiarism drama indirectly, it's okay not to explode in the future. If it is exploded, it may affect his reputation.
"Pack yourself up and come with me." Zou Yun decided to seek professional help.
Wang Ningyao quickly stood up, wiped her face carefully with a tissue again, tidyed herself up, and a fire of hope ignited in her heart.
Maybe Zou Yun can help her?
