Long Jie shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she wasn't too familiar with the rules of this new industry.
To find out the truth as soon as possible, Mo Ting asked Lu Che to contact the person in charge of the website and ask them to provide evidence as soon as possible. Although they weren't as large as Hai Rui, they still had a strong legal system. So, they managed to pull out files from 3 years ago. The signed contract showed that 'The Tracker' was indeed a work that existed 3 years ago. This was an undeniable fact.
"President, the signs of plagiarism are obvious and the other party has already provided evidence. Elder Wu's film is undoubtedly plagiarized."
Mo Ting looked at the yellowed contract in seriousness before throwing it to one side.
"Let's continue investigating."
"Should we continue investigating?" Lu Che asked. As soon as he saw Mo Ting lift his head, he scratched his head, "What I mean is, should we think of a way to remedy the situation?"
"If we try to remedy the situation before we have a full understanding of the truth, wouldn't Hai Rui be slapping themselves in the face if new problems crop up?"
Although the industry didn't differentiate between right and wrong... as the leader of Hai Rui, Mo Ting had never allowed them to use unorthodox methods to achieve their goals.
"But, what if the results of the investigation are the same?"
"There will definitely be a loophole."
How could he be so certain? He had chosen this script from a pile of other scripts. The reason why he gave it to Tangning, he must have done his own research. Hai Rui would never allow plagiarism to happen. But, how did 'The Tracker' appear out of nowhere? How did it even have a contract from a few years ago? He was quite curious.
It seemed quite interesting.
However, time did not allow them to proceed slowly. Because, after the plagiarism incident blew up, the author finally stepped out and announced that he had hired a lawyer to defend his rights.
Plus, he claimed that Hai Rui was a big shark that could easily swallow up a small fish. So, he had no choice but to step out and clarify the truth to avoid future trouble. Because of this, Hai Rui was still under the scrutiny of the netizens. Because of this, they did not dare to act recklessly!
He claimed that Hai Rui was a big shark!
Not only that, he also demanded that Hai Rui show their attitude and stop shielding the author. Not only did he demand compensation and an apology, he also demanded that 'The Lost Relative' not be screened in any theaters. This was the correct way to deal with plagiarism.
Because she was the victim, it sounded so natural.
At that moment, it seemed to resonate with the majority of the original authors. All the authors joined forces to boycott 'The Lost Relative' and demanded that the plagiarist, Mr. Hu, apologize.
Now, all the evidence proved that Mr. Hu was indeed the plagiarist. For a while, it seemed that no one could prove his innocence.
Old Master Hu felt wronged and angry. Faced with the distortion of right and wrong by the outside world, he was so angry that he was bedridden.
"Hurry up and apologize. Don't be a coward."
"This scriptwriter has produced many good works in the past. I didn't expect him to make mistakes. Could it be that he has run out of ideas?"
"No matter what, the plagiarist should explode on the spot."
Seeing the comments on the internet, Elder Wu's family did not dare to tell the old man about it. They could only sigh.
When Tangning heard that Mr. Hu was sick because of anger, she immediately went to visit him.
"Miss Tang, you didn't have to come here. It's not your fault. Plus, you're about to give birth. It's very dangerous." Elder Wu's wife said. "My husband has been innocent all his life, yet he's been framed. I refuse to believe that he would plagiarize someone, but …"
"If it's someone else, it's fine. But, when my grandson came home for dinner yesterday and saw his grandfather, he cursed at him for being shameless. Tell me, at his age, how could the old man take it?"
After hearing this, Tangning had no choice but to comfort, "I believe in Elder Wu. Plus, I've never given up on trying to prove his innocence. I'm honored to have acted in his script."
"Miss Tang, thank you so much," Tangning shook her head.
In reality, her heart was filled with a deep sense of guilt. She had a feeling that the entire incident was directed at her and Elder Wu was simply making it easier for the culprit to act.
As for the culprit, she didn't need to think too much. Apart from Song Xin, who else could it be?
Firstly, only Song Xin had such a deep grudge against her recently. Secondly, Song Xin was an author, so she naturally understood how web novels worked. But, of course, she still needed concrete evidence.
So, that day, after visiting Elder Wu, Tangning returned home and locked herself in the study room. She was going to start from the beginning with 540,000 words …
But … Tangning had no idea how serious the incident was. Due to the threat of online violence and the distrust and lack of understanding from his family, Elder Wu ended up leaving a suicide note and taking pills 3 days after the incident. Although his family discovered him in time, because he took too many pills, his brain was damaged and he was still in a coma to this day. In fact, the doctor said that even if he woke up … there would be serious repercussions and he might even end up with dementia.
Even so, online comments such as' he deserved it ',' he committed suicide to escape punishment ',' this is how it should be ',' why didn't he just die cleanly 'and so on appeared online.
"F * ck, the internet these days is scary. He's already been forced to this extent, yet he's still making sarcastic remarks. I feel bad for Elder Wu …"
After hearing Long Jie's words, Tangning slammed her hands on the study table. Long Jie was so shocked that she quickly covered her chest. This was the first time she had seen Tangning get angry in front of her. Tangning had never shown her emotions on her face.
"Tangning …"
"Let me have some quiet …"
Long Jie understood Tangning was in a bad mood, so she nodded her head and quietly left the study room. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she saw Mo Ting's tall figure standing in the doorway.
Her savior had arrived!
"Boss … Tangning was really angry just now."
"I heard," Mo Ting replied calmly. "Go home, I'll take care of her."
"OK." With Mo Ting around, Long Jie felt a lot more at ease. Now that the situation had gotten to this point, no one wanted to see it end up like this.
A moment later, Mo Ting pushed open the study room door. Seeing Tangning sprawled in front of the computer desk, at a loss of what to do, he quickly ran over and carried her in his arms, "You are about to become a mother, don't you know what's important?"
"Ting … this time, I can't find an answer. I can't seem to find one …"
"You're just confused, it's not like you can't find one," Mo Ting comforted as he carried her in his arms. Mo Ting hugged her in his arms and comforted, "Your opponent wants to see you in this state the most. The more you blame yourself, the happier she will be."
"But …"
