The rest of the story was purely good triumphs over evil.

A small amusement park was not really just a rural enterprise. It had relationships and abilities. Soon, this thing was spread in the fashion circles in Europe and the United States, and it didn’t need the amusement park to do many things. But they could still punish Xiao Yuanxie easily.

Xiao Yuanxie couldn’t explain it clearly, because it was impossible for a designer to use the works that were used for the competition for animation, and
the little Muli’s incredible maze
indeed appeared in the media before the competition, this was something that he couldn’t deny.

Later, Xiao Yuanxie’s brand plan also came to an end, and several manufacturers, who originally had some interests, all stopped cooperating with him. Although the original designer has never come out, and his reputation wasn’t completely ruined, it was difficult for him to become successful again in this kind of scandal. Unless Xiao Yuanxie could come up with a new design that was on the same level as the design he used to win the award, to prove his ability.

However, this was very difficult to achieve.

Facing the media’s frantic skepticism, people even took out his recent works and compared them with the designs he used in the competition, the average person may not see any difference, but in the eyes of professionals, it was the difference between ordinary people and geniuses. The difference was so big that it was hard to imagine that the works were done by the same person.

No amount of sophistry would be valid in people’s constant questioning. The only hope Xiao Yuanxie had was that the studio might not take legal action. As long as the original designer did not come out, he would still be the grand prize winner.

Although, so far, Xiao Yuanxie has failed to get any benefit from this award.

To be honest, Zhou Yu felt slightly sorry for this Xiao Yuanxie. Although he didn’t have much fame before, he wasn’t a terrible designer, otherwise, he would not have been invited to participate in the competition. But now, although he had indeed won the award, he was not able to stay in the fashion design circles. For the rest of his life, he would probably only be able to stay with this award.

This punishment should be enough, he has paid a great price for his actions. If he could admit his mistake and start from the beginning again, he might have an opportunity to become successful again.

However, what was this brand cooperation proposal?

Zhou Fu explained,
after this plagiarism incident, Beidou and Qin Zhuan studios got a lot of exposure. The popularity of the little Muli’s incredible maze has been rising steadily, and some foreign media even want to buy broadcasting rights in their countries. The clothing design in our show has also attracted a lot of attention from the fashion industry. Some clothing brands hope that our studio can design some clothes for them, and even some celebrities want some personal designs.


Zhou Yu was speechless. They were animation studios, okay? Why did they start to accept clothing design, this kind of work? Besides, those designers were all from the ACG world, and they were not affiliated with Luhua city. There was no way to invite them to work for him.

In the ACG world, designers were very popular people. After all, in the world that had many idols, they needed to have many more beautiful clothes. Ordinary clothing designers were employed by management companies to design clothes only for their idols, and those top clothing designers usually hid in strange places, and it was not easy to get their designs.


The clothes that were copied by Xiao Yuanxie could not be used anymore, but there were still some clothes that have aroused everyone’s interest, especially little Muli’s wedding dress, which has received very high praise.


What Zhou Fu said was the truth. After the fashion clothes of
the little Muli’s incredible maze
attracted people’s attention, all the works that had appeared in it were dug out by people one by one. Xiao Yuanxie had only copied the idols’ clothes that appeared in the opening of the show, but he did not see anything after the opening, so some works still survived.

Among them, little Muli’s wedding dress was the most amazing one.

This white phoenix wedding dress was also very rare in the ACG world, so even the ordinary people could still easily see its extraordinariness. What Zhou Fu didn’t expect was that its praise would be so high that even those stars were eager to get their hands on it.


Uncle, I need to say something that probably won’t make you happy.


Judging from Zhou Fu’s happy face, it was clear to Zhou Yu that he had the ambition to enter the fashion industry, which not only was an excellent opportunity to promote the animation variety show, but they would also be able to make some money. However, Zhou Yu felt that this would not work,
the people who helped me design these clothes are not the ones, who are working for Beidou or Qin Zhuan, and they may not want to work for me.


Zhou Fu did not know anything about Zhou Yu’s connections. He just felt very strange that Zhou Yu could always find some strange talented people. But now he was surprised to find out that there were people who also did not want to work for Zhou Yu.


But they have already designed the clothes for you, right? I’ve already seen the second season of the show, and the clothes in the second season also feel pretty good. Is it because you did not pay them enough money? Can you give them more money, as long as you establish this business opportunity, It will definitely cover the cost of production.


Zhou Fu did not know how much the production costs of the first season and the second season of the variety show were, but even if he did not know, he could still guess that it would definitely be an astronomical figure. Now that the show’s profit was not enough to fill the production cost, but if they could expand the business into the fashion circle, it would be much easier to recoup the costs.

However, this matter was really difficult.


Uncle, please give me a few days, I need to ask someone.


Zhou Yu didn’t dare to agree hastily. This matter could actually be done, it was just a matter of time. Once Luhua City had its own fashion designer, it would be easy to expand the business into the fashion industry. But now, he had to ask Xia Huan if there was anything he needed to be aware of before doing this kind of business.

It just happened that because of the promotion work of the second season of the show, Xia Huan brought over a TV crew to the studio to film a small promotional video. Having nothing to do, Xia Huan also came over to The Billow Sound Pavilion to enjoy the summer sunshine, beach, and sea in wintertime.

After hearing Zhou Yu’s question, Xia Huan said while sunbathing,
Old Zhou, fortunately, it was not you who plagiarized this time, otherwise, there would be a huge problem. You are a person, who has the ACG world attributes, so you must abide by some rules of the ACG world. You can’t touch those clothes. The management companies are as protective of their idols as their clothes. So if you want their clothing brand, the price will be unusually high. I am afraid that with the current financial situation of Luhua city, you cannot afford it.


Oh well, it seemed like they could not do this business at the moment. Unless he could raise his own fashion designers, otherwise, with the clothing brand royalty fee alone, it would completely shut down Luhua city’s finances.


But, there are also other ways to do it. Like Xiao Muli’s white phoenix wedding dress, it can be obtained by doing some quests. However, such things are extremely rare, and the quality of the dress is also very uncertain, and it will take more time.


This suggestion was even less feasible because Zhou Yu did not want to be a clothing hunter, looking for top clothing everywhere.
