Entertaining Children

  Chapter 578 Exposed Plagiarism

  The seventh episode was broadcast the day before the ninth episode was recorded. From the appearance of articles and comments praising Xiao Yao to other singer fans and netizens starting to criticize Xiao Yao, it also took a few days of accumulation and fermentation. Within two days of returning to Shanghai after recording the program with Xiao Yao, Fang still found that many articles and comments attacking Xiao Yao's performance in the "Singer" program suddenly appeared on the Internet, and he immediately gave feedback to Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao did not directly respond to the negative comments and articles on the Internet. He just made a request to the program team to change the next competition song that had been sent to the program team.

  As far as the current situation is concerned, neither Xiao Siqi, Xiao Yao, nor the director group of "Singer" thinks it necessary to make some formal responses. Although a lot of negative articles and comments attacking Xiao Yao appeared on the Internet at once, it seemed a bit scary, but a closer look shows that these theories are not very capable of withstanding scrutiny. Even though the number of these negative comments is very intense and dense, there is no such phenomenon in public opinion that accuses Xiao Yao and the program group one-sidedly.

  The program "Singer" never said that the rules of the game must be immutable and cannot be modified. In the first two seasons, the program rules have also undergone certain changes. For example, the Kick Hall game is the new competition system and rules added to the previous season's program. There was no Kick Hall singer in the "Singer" program in the first season. For the program group, as long as the fairness of the game is not affected, there is no problem with changing the rules. As for the so-called "off-the-board moves" that attacked Xiao Yao on the Internet, it did not violate any rules of the program, and there was no need for special explanations and responses.

"The rule that the program group allows to sing their own new songs was determined and changed during the preparation of this year's program. All singers participating in the program have been informed of the changes to this rule before they are confirmed to participate, and Xiao Yao can sing his own new songs. , Other singers can also sing. What's unfair? Is it wrong for Xiao Yao to write songs and write songs fast?"

"Don’t say that this rule is tailored for Xiao Yao. This season, Xiao Yao is not the only singer who will write songs. Not to mention that Xiao Yao has been notified in advance than other singers, so he wrote a lot of songs in advance. Now. He is a kicking singer, can he be notified earlier than the starting singer? When did the program group first determine the starting singer and then the replacement singer and kicking singer?

"Although Xiao Yao never makes public itineraries, as long as he has the heart, it is easy to introduce his this year's itinerary from his works and news. Starting from the New Year's Day of the Gregorian calendar, Xiao Yao participated in the East China Sea TV New Year's Eve party, filmed MVs, participated in the Spring Festival Gala, and cashed in. The promise in the "Ancient Poetry Conference" was to take promotional photos for Tu Yiyuan, make static films, engage in brand launches, go to France to participate in short film festivals, record quick copies, and go to school in the middle. How much energy can he have in advance to participate in " "Singer" to write songs? How early will the program team invite him to participate in "Singer"? Last year? Can the preparation period for "Singer" be that long?"

"Speaking of Xiao Yao playing "off-the-board tricks", does Hong Wei's invitation to the Matouqin band count as "off-board tricks"? Does Liang Xueying's invitation to the top international harmonies as backing vocals count as "off-board tricks"? Does Cai Ruoqi dance count as "off-board tricks"? Outside the board "?"

"The program group is unprofessional, the sound equipment is first-rate, the stage lighting is first-class, the musicians and the music director are first-class, how professional is it? Those who say that the voting audience is unprofessional were originally selected from the general audience who signed up online. The audience is professional in music. Besides, if you are a live audience, you guarantee that you will not be affected by the singer's reputation? You will be blindfolded, so you are professional?"

  These principles are very simple. Without the need for the parties to speak up, the rebuttals of Xiao Yao’s fans on the Internet are enough to counter this trend of attacking Xiao Yao.

  The fans on the Internet are making a lot of noise, and various gossip entertainment media are naturally attracted quickly and participate in it. However, the media also understand that those Black Xiaoyao's theories are not very tenable. The essence of this incident is actually a struggle between fans, so the media are just reposting the comments of various fans with great interest. The discussions became more lively, but they themselves did not immediately take a stand on one side, and most of the media did not go to Xiao Yao, the party concerned, to request an interview.

Seeing that the articles and comments of Hei Xiaoyao did not have the expected effect, even the gossip media did not help them with the rhythm of Hei Xiaoyao. Those other singers and fans of Hei Xiaoyao were unwilling to do so, and they continued their efforts. It's about Xiao Yao's problems in the show.

   Then, a new question about Xiao Yao was raised by some people. Many people began to question Xiao Yao's purpose for participating in this show. I played the guitar for the agent in the show's highlights, and then released a pure music album of guitar songs, held a piano recital in the show, and then released another pure music album of piano, no more than a week apart, this Is the timing too accurate? You still openly hand out business cards to other singers on the show. Are you here to sing at the competition or do you come to advertise for yourself on the show for free?

  On this point, Xiao Yao and Xiao Siqi have no need to respond. Playing a musical instrument in a music program is normal, and it does not violate any rules in the program. It's Xiao Yao's own ability to make music albums, no matter how dark it is, nothing will come out. If all the netizens on the Internet are arguing about this, it is simply the black people who have come to help Xiao Yao sell the two music albums. Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao should be too happy to be too late.

Neither the media nor Xiao Yao’s fans felt that taking Xiao Yao’s music album out of the story would cause Xiao Yao to be hit, but what they didn’t expect was that it was Xiao Yao’s music album that led to one News that shocked the music world and even spread from the entertainment news page to the social news page.

  The cause of the incident stemmed from a post in the music section of a website that combats piracy and plagiarism. Because of the recent online controversy about Xiao Yao, especially the criticism that he actually participated in the show for selling albums as advertisements, the sales of Xiao Yao's two music albums did have an explosive growth. This also shows that there are many more people who hear Xiao Yao's two music albums. And this post publicly accused Xiao Yao of plagiarism.

"I am a pure music fan, most of whom listen to pure music and rarely listen to songs. However, recently I have been watching the Internet and discussing that a singer named Xiao Yao promoted his pure music album by participating in a program, so I curiously bought it and listened. It doesn’t matter when I hear it, oh my god, it scared me a lot. I discovered that three of his piano music albums were plagiarized! The three songs of "Childhood Memories", "Daydream" and "Serenade" Both are the works of American pianist Horn Bernie. The first two are the works of Horn Bernie ten years ago, and "Serenade" was his work three years ago. Both of them have been performed publicly in concerts. Below I will post a comparison of Bernie’s concert video with the audio of Xiao Yao’s album piano music, so that everyone can hear if they are exactly the same. I have seen a lot of music plagiarism, but most of them are just copying a few sections. What? I copied the whole piece from beginning to end, and I didn’t even change the name of the piece. This is the first time I saw you! Do you think no one in China listens to the music of an American pianist? I heard that the singer is less than twenty , Is the best newcomer who has won the "Gold Disc Award" and is a recognized musical genius in the Chinese music scene? To be honest, I am not surprised at all now, huh!"

Online now is the time when the debate about Xiao Yao is the most intense. As soon as this post that mentions Xiao Yao’s name came out, it was quickly discovered by netizens and quickly reposted to Weibo, Tieba, major portals, and mobile news. The most viewed places such as software.

   "I'll go, it's exactly the same! I just copied the whole song, and changed the name and said it was my own? Where is this plagiarism? It is clearly a robber!"

"What creative genius? It turned out to be a copy of the public! No wonder I suddenly went to the United States for a year of exchange students. I guess I went to the United States to copy music. Everyone will look for it. Maybe other songs or music are copied from foreign countries. Yeah!"

  "Who has the contact information of the American pianist, please send an email to let me know! Waiting for the Yankee to send Xiao Yao a human rights lawyer letter!"

   "Xiao Yao's album is selling well, right? The claim is probably not a small amount! Why am I feeling a little happy now?"

   "After this plagiarism scandal, will "Singer" still let Xiao Yao continue to participate? He should be asked to quit directly!"

"In fact, I still have a good impression of Xiao Yao. The college entrance examination champion can't be faked. The ability to sing and play musical instruments should also be true! A young man who is already very good at first, he is better than most of the second generation stars. If you want to release a music album or a performance album, why do you have to write the name and indicate that it is your own original creation? People are not satisfied, and they have to give themselves another title of creative genius. It’s because people’s perception of him has plummeted, and the fans have turned black."

"A post I don’t know who posted that Xiao Yao plagiarized, Xiao Yao really plagiarized? Xiao Yao didn’t even come forward to say anything, so why did he all believe Xiao Yao was plagiarism? No matter what happened now. It's clear! Now because this fan turns black, it's not really a "pill", it's so easy to leave without giving it away!"

"I'm hehe! Someone who listens to pure music and is not a fan of any singer, the evidence has been laid out, but can he deliberately frame Xiao Yao? Isn't it unclear what is going on? Xiao Yao hasn't spoken yet? What can he come out and say? Apart from admitting plagiarism, what else can he say? By the way, I will despise it again. I don’t dare to admit plagiarism after being exposed. A coward! Is it really a "pill"? Xiao Yao really wants to play this time. It's over!"

"What else is unclear? Could it be someone who copied Xiao Yao by a well-known American pianist? The first two pieces were works by others ten years ago. How old was Xiao Yao when he was still in elementary school? Home copy?"

As soon as this post spread, the Internet was immediately filled with criticism and sarcasm from Xiao Yao. Even if the tone was a little softer, it was determined that Xiao Yao was plagiarizing, and the words were full of regret and anger. It's indisputable. Occasionally, a few Xiao Yao fans took the initiative to speak, and they were quickly overwhelmed by voices of opposition and criticism.

  When things have developed to this point, the media have finally begun to take their stand. Although I don't know who posted that post, the evidence presented is convincing enough. Even if you are not a professional music player, you can find that the songs are exactly the same. The performance videos of American musicians posted in the post are not difficult to find on foreign music websites, and it is easy to prove that the video has not undergone additional audio processing.

The previous controversies, to put it bluntly, were Xiao Yao’s reckless behavior within the scope of the rules, and it was no different from what he played on The Voice, but at that time his opponents were all unknown amateurs. Or newcomers who the record company is going to praise but haven't debuted, they don't have hard-core fans to come out and attack Xiao Yao for their injustice. Most of the media did not go to the person concerned, Xiao Yao, because they knew that with Xiao Yao’s character and consistent behavior, those disputes would not arouse the interest of Xiao Yao, who has always disliked interviews, to respond.

  The matter of plagiarism is different. It is related to Xiao Yao's reputation and character. Can Xiao Yao still bear with him and remain silent? Do you want his image any more? Do you want his music future? If he stays silent like this, carrying this stain on his back, his whole life will be affected unimaginably.

  So, countless calls for interviews reached the external contact number of Xiao Yao’s agent, the public relations department of Qi Jia studio, and even the mobile phones of close friends of Xiao Siqi, Ye Jiaying and Xiao Yao. However, no matter where the media reporters call, there is still no positive response for the time being.

  When most people want to come, the Xiao family must be nervous to discuss public relations measures with the studio's public relations staff, but in fact, Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao are relatively relaxed at this moment. When Xiao Yao put those three pieces on the piano album, he had already anticipated that this might happen.

  Based on Xiao Yao's estimation of the sales of his two pure music albums, this situation should not happen until the final of "Singer" at the earliest. The "Singer" final is live broadcast, that is to say, there will be two more weeks of preparation time before the final than other games. At that time, he also had more free time to deal with this matter.

Surprisingly, Xiao Yao’s performance and performance in "Singer" made some of his fans get overwhelmed, and made some remarks that belittle other singers, aroused dissatisfaction among other singers’ fans, and formed a series of fan saliva on the Internet. war. Xiao Yao has a good relationship with the singers on the show, knowing that the singer himself does not think the same as those fans. These online saliva couldn't hurt him, and he didn't care much at first. But what he didn't expect was that someone had picked up the issue of his music album and made him ill-found. As a result, his music album sales soared, and the accusations of plagiarism came so much earlier than expected.

   But now that the matter has exploded, it is impossible not to deal with it. Not to mention that Fang's current mobile phone is almost blown up, even if it is to calm down the phone calls of relatives and friends, Xiao Yao has to take action.
