814: Chapter 815 Punishnt 814: Chapter 815 Punishnt “That’s right, they probably never imagined that we would rather place those three shows there than fail to produce our own creation,”
Zhang Zhao said excitedly.
“But what about the investigation team?”
Fu Liuan voiced his concerns.
“We have a contract, black on white.
When the investigation team cos, we just show it to them.
What is there to be afraid of?”
Xiao Chen smiled and said, “For now, let’s ride the montum of this wind and continue to promote our show, but let’s not reveal the truth at the outset.
We’ll just announce that we have three variety shows about to premiere.
Leverage public opinion to propel the programs to the top of the charts.
When the ti is right, then we’ll reveal the truth.”
“Understood!”
…
Soon, the news spread that Tianxing dia’s three variety shows would premiere on Blue Sea Satellite TV and all the major video websites simultaneously.
There were only seven days left until the premiere.
At the sa ti, what ca was a deluge of curses,
even more terrifying than before, which led the previously unknown small company Tianxing dia to dominate the hottest search rank for several days in a row.
“Hahaha, Tianxing dia is finished.
I guarantee no one will watch their variety shows,”
Zhu Shaoneng laughed heartily.
He genuinely didn’t anticipate the effects to be this good.
People actually hated plagiarism this much.
“Not only that, this is a matter of credibility.
Tianxing dia’s market value is plumting.
When the ti cos, Young Master Zhu, you can acquire it at a bargain price!”
Bai Yuning said with a smile.
“It seems like nobody’s even paying attention to how terrible our variety shows are now.
We should thank Tianxing dia for this.”
Qin Shuo also said, laughing.
“Isn’t everything going a little too smoothly?”
There were talented individuals in Zhu Entertainnt who sensed that sothing was amiss.
“Shut up, why do you throw cold water when everyone’s happy?
Let tell you, the Li Family has already given a heads-up to the investigation team.
They will ensure Tianxing dia’s variety shows can’t even make it to air,”
Zhu Shaoneng said with a cold laugh.
“But, Young Master Zhu, we should still be careful,”
said the professional manager hired by Zhu Entertainnt, who, being an expert, was always more cautious.
“Shut up, if you keep rambling, get lost!”
Zhu Shaoneng snapped angrily, “It’s an honor for you to work at my company, so give less nonsense.”
…
The investigation team arrived at Blue Sea quickly, even bypassing the official channels of Blue Sea.
They went straight to Tianxing dia.
“Because of your plagiarism incident, you’ve had an extrely negative impact.
Everyone stop your work and cooperate with our investigation.
Effective today, Tianxing dia will temporarily cease operations,”
the investigation team leader Li Nan said coldly.
This Li Nan was a mber of the Xiongcheng Li Family, and his position today was cultivated by them.
He received orders from the Xiongcheng Li Family and imdiately rushed to Blue Sea without stopping.
This was a great opportunity to make a na for himself.
“Team Leader Li, if you say we plagiarized, you must present evidence.
You can’t just arrive and shut us down; that doesn’t seem proper, does it?”
Xiao Chen said calmly.
The others also looked at Li Nan, all with faces of calm.
After all, they had done nothing wrong, so they had nothing to fear.
Seeing the composed deanors of Xiao Chen and the others, Li Nan felt annoyed.
He was with the investigation team, yet these guys were not the least bit afraid and were even sitting there as if they hadn’t noticed him at all.
It was utterly infuriating.
“You want evidence, right?
Give it to them!”
Li Nan slamd a thick stack of investigative materials onto the table.
Those items were collected by people from Zhu Entertainnt, including remarks from that South Korean director and a large amount of data corroborating the similarities between Tianxing dia’s show and Zhu Entertainnt’s show.
“Team Leader Li, this information was given to you by Zhu Shaoneng, wasn’t it?”
Xiao Chen directly lit up a cigarette and started smoking, laughing as he said, “If the unilateral claims of Zhu Entertainnt can be considered evidence, then I must say your investigative team isn’t very responsible.”
“Presumptuous!
How dare you speak to the team leader like that?
The evidence of your plagiarism is irrefutable, yet you have the gall to be so shaless.
Tianxing dia must be banned nationwide.
Having a trashy company like yours in existence is really going to ruin the entertainnt industry of Dragon Country!”
Several mbers of the investigative team had a good relationship with Li Nan, so naturally, they spoke on his behalf.
However, a few others kept silent because they realized that sothing was amiss.
In fact, they were also aware that the so-called evidence was rely Zhu Entertainnt’s side of the story; they had previously asked Li Nan to reinvestigate the matter.
But Li Nan had refused.
What was there to investigate?
Master Biao had already made a phone call stating that this ti, Tianxing dia must be shut down.
Did he still need to investigate?
“Irrefutable evidence?”
Xiao Chen laughed: “Officer sir, please don’t be angry, ah.
Since you all think we plagiarized, then deal with us as you see fit.
I have no objections!”
“What’s that attitude?
Do you really think we don’t dare to take action against you?”
Li Nan beca angry.
This Xiao Chen was too arrogant.
“Team Leader Li, don’t bla for my attitude.
Anyone in our position, who is clearly not guilty of plagiarism yet is subjected to your investigation, would feel uncomfortable.
Besides, how am I disregarding others?
All I am asking is for the investigative team to properly look into the matter.
Even if our show’s plots are similar to those of the other party,
If Team Leader Li had conducted the investigation, he should understand that our show was fild beforehand.
They are the ones who ca after.
How is it, then?
Even if there were plagiarism, it should be Zhu Entertainnt copying us.
How did it beco us plagiarizing them?”
Xiao Chen’s argunt was logical and founded, leaving Li Nan sowhat at a loss for words.
“Hmph, Zhu Entertainnt is a reputable company.
They were very popular when they were in Xiongcheng City; they wouldn’t do sothing so shaful as plagiarism.
It’s only your new company, Tianxing dia, that would stoop to anything just to expand its influence.”
Li Nan began spouting nonsense.
“Since Team Leader Li puts it that way, I have nothing more to say.
You’ve decided that we plagiarized, so whatever we say would probably be in vain.”
Xiao Chen shrugged and said, “You might as well just issue the decision directly.”
“Fine, since that’s your attitude and you refuse to admit your mistake, don’t bla !
According to the copyright law, the fact that you plagiarized is certain, and the circumstances are particularly severe.
The punishnt is as follows:
First, Tianxing dia is forbidden from producing any variety shows;
Second, the variety shows you have created are not allowed to be aired;
Third, issue a public apology, eliminate the impact, and compensate Zhu Entertainnt a total of one billion for the damage;
Fourth, a penalty fine of fifty million!”
Hearing these punishnts, Xiao Chen laughed.
This Li Nan really took himself too seriously.
Or, rather, he took the people of Tianxing dia for fools.
Such sanctions, even if Li Nan pronounced them, would not pass in the relevant departnts.
Because they were simply too exaggerated.
It was nothing more than an attempt to intimidate the people of Tianxing dia.
For those who don’t understand the law or are faint-hearted, it might be very effective.
Unfortunately for them, Xiao Chen was neither of these.
“Team Leader Li, isn’t this a bit too much?
You are soone with great prospects, the rising star of the Zhili Prefecture’s entertainnt departnt.
If you take a fall, I’m afraid you’ll never be able to get back up again.
Aren’t you going to reconsider?” Xiao Chen asked.
