Chapter 126 ? Shameful Plagiarism
"What's going on?" Fang Tong asked.
Peng Dongxiang said: "This is the trailer released by Orange Video this morning."
Fang Tong was angry and even his voice trembled: "They are plagiarizing ideas."
After saying that, he suddenly felt weak all over again.
In fact, this situation has not been encountered before, but it mostly occurs during the proposal stage. Moreover, within the legal scope of intellectual property rights, the protection of creativity does not support the protection of creativity, only the completed works, such as film copyright, novel copyright, and program copyright, but there is never a creative copyright.
Huang Wenhan said in a deep voice: "I just inquired, and they said they had been preparing for half a year, earlier than ours."
"Impossible!" Fang Tong flatly denied.
Creativity does have unexpected coincidences, but it is impossible to even have the same name. Judging from some of the content in the trailer, some of the formal designs are even what they just discussed last week.
Zhuo Yihang also hurriedly jumped out to prove: "When we had a meeting last week, Teacher Peng came in and listened for a while, and many of the trailer were our thoughts."
Huang Wenhan did not deny this, but his eyebrows were locked tighter.
"But they claimed to the public that they had started preparing for this project very early, and judging from their trailer, it is estimated that many insiders in the industry should not believe that this was a temporary rush to get out."
Indeed, there are scenes in the trailer that are recorded in real shots, and there are many exciting clips, which should have been recorded at least one episode. If it is plagiarism, it is at least a large company with strong strength, otherwise it would not have been possible to surpass Tangdou in such a short time. This requires a very strong production team.
"But... when we last proposed, our plan was also submitted to Orange Video. Because of the process, it was not convenient for them to speed up the evaluation, but they did not suggest that other suppliers had the same creativity."
Fang Tong felt that the whole thing was full of absurdity, and someone was inserted into the good show. He suddenly remembered something and asked anxiously: "Which company's project is this."
"Yes..." Peng Dongxiang's voice was a little dry, "It's Haoyu's program."
Haoyu?
Fang Tong immediately understood.
You don’t have to think about it and know that this must be Xing Youda’s trick.
Fang Tong has been guarding against Xing Youda's revenge. The main creative team of the program gave it to a five-person team, and he didn't even have the producer's name, just to try to keep a low profile.
But unexpectedly, on the day of the Kuyu proposal, he accidentally met Xing Youda and Gao Bin. Liu Rong, the boss of the Kuyu Variety Show Center, also used the party to beat Xing Youda, probably because that stimulating Xing Youda.
But Fang Tong never expected that Xing Youda's counterattack would come so quickly.
At this time, Fang Tong's mobile phone vibrated a few times, looked down and saw that it was Yue Yulin, the commercial director of Orange Video.
He was not familiar with Yue Yulin, and the last time he asked him for an intermediary, he introduced him through an intermediary, but he was the newly appointed director and was unable to help in the end.
"Hello, Director Yue!" Fang Tong answered the phone and tried to calm his tone.
"Fang Tong, have you seen the trailer?"
"Just saw it..." I didn't know what Yue Yulin's phone call was intended, so Fang Tong had to respond calmly, "Director Yue, what do you think about this?"
"Fang Tong, I saw your plan last time and I really thought it was good, but I just came a few days ago and it was really inconvenient to speed up the evaluation. Today, the leader suddenly explained that there was a project that I had been preparing for a long time for me to connect with. You know, it would be convenient for me to say more."
Fang Tong suddenly understood that Yue Yulin called to explain to him. He is the newly appointed commercial director. When he sees two identical projects, he must know that there is a name, but he is the person in charge of the execution and is a new one, so he can play a very little role.
Generally, this situation occurs, usually conflicts and grudges between suppliers. For something that has nothing to do with him, Yue Yulin naturally has to separate himself from him.
Sure enough, Yue Yulin continued: "What I can guarantee is that after submitting your plan to me, I have never shown it to anyone else."
"Thank you, Director Yue, for reminding me, I will come to deal with this matter."
Overall, Yue Yulin is quite a good person. He can call Fang Tong, which at least shows that his position is neutral. He is responsible for the project, but it is not led by him.
This is valuable information.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Tong remembered an important question and asked: "Mr. Huang, does Kuyu have an attitude?"
The three video platforms of Cool Fish, LeBo and Orange compete with each other and must always keep an eye on their opponents' every move. It is impossible for Cool Fish people not to see this trailer, but no one from the Game Center or the Variety Show Center called, and it is estimated that their attitude is not yet certain.
Huang Wenhan cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Xu called me just now."
It turned out that Xu Wenjian came forward...
"What did Mr. Xu say?"
"Cool Fish is in a difficult situation now, and it is not uncommon to hit the subject matter, but it is difficult to explain such a special program as "China Good Luck" that can be exactly the same. This is not the most critical. They are worried that Haoyu's program on Orange Video will progress faster. If Orange Video is on ahead of schedule and Cool Fish follow up with an exactly the same program, this pair of Cool Fish will be too passive. You also know that Cool Fish and Orange have competed particularly fiercely in the past two years."
Fang Tong immediately understood Kuyu's attitude. In fact, the platform does not care about plagiarism and plagiarism. The key is to see who can go first. Haoyu's strength and resources are beyond words, otherwise it would not be possible to be ahead of Fang Tong in such a short time.
They want people and money, and their connections in the industry are much better than Tangdou. If they compare speed, Tangdou may not be able to compare with Haoyu.
If this is the case, Kuyu will be a little embarrassed. The audience does not care who the supplier behind the show is. The audience only recognizes the platform. They will think that Kuyu is plagiarizing and plagiarizing orange videos. This is something that Kuyu cannot tolerate anyway.
"In addition, there is one more thing." Huang Wenhan continued.
Fang Tongxin sank down, and Xing Youda probably had other tricks.
Maybe he was really careless. Last time, it was because Xing Youda was not prepared for him, but he has always been a very meticulous person. This time he came prepared, so there should be a lot of greetings.
Fang Tong took a deep breath and prepared to listen to the next bad news.
At this time, a soft hand under the table quietly reached over and held his hand.
It was Su Yu. She didn't know much about the variety show industry. She didn't speak up all the way. Apart from encouragement and comfort, she couldn't help much.
Huang Wenhan said: "Haoyu sent us a lawyer's letter, and Mr. Xu also sent a copy to Kuyu. It said that this plan was your position in Haoyu at that time. You were brought to other companies and were suspected of leaking secrets, so they filed negotiations."
Chapter completed!
