Chapter 192 The Unpredictable Prophet
Chapter 192 The Unpredictable Prophet
Lan Xingyao, however, did not think so. "Then we'll wait and see."
The subordinate shook his head and left.
Sigh, Little Blue is still too optimistic.
Just when people thought Yuan Sixiao was doomed to fail completely, things took an unexpected turn for the better.
A lawyer's letter directly sued Gu Wen and her agency.
The person suing them is Federman, a Chinese-American singer who is somewhat well-known in the United States.
The lawyer's letter clearly states that Feldman had already sung these three songs at a press conference a year ago.
Feldman stated that since the songs were gifts from friends, he did not intend to profit from them.
Therefore, it has never been released as an album or online.
It's just a way of giving back to fans, and I only perform it at each concert.
This may also be why the song didn't become popular.
Furthermore, the copyrights to all three songs belong to Feldman's company.
Now, Feldman and his company are suing Gu Wen and his team for copyright infringement and plagiarism.
They will be held responsible for any economic losses and legal liabilities caused by it.
The news caused an uproar across the internet.
"Who is claiming whose work? I don't understand. Didn't Gu Wen say that she wrote the song?"
"Don't listen to Gu Wen's nonsense. We've all been fooled by that woman. Even Federman personally stepped in to beat people up. How could it be fake?"
"Gu Wen said that Yuan Sixiao stole her work and monopolized her songwriting credits, but then Feldman said that Gu Wen infringed on her copyright. These songs have nothing to do with Gu Wen at all. It's hilarious. I wonder if Gu Wen's face hurts?"
"With such thick skin, what's there to be sad about? Besides, Yuan Sixiao is fine, so why single out Gu Wen? They don't seem like good people either."
"Indeed, the world is just a giant makeshift operation, and all songs under heaven are plagiarized!"
"Alright, alright, you guys are going to play it this way, huh? Then I won't hold back. From now on, I'm the King of International Pop Music, the second Michael Jackson! Thank you!"
Gu Wen's lounge.
The agent stood guard outside, keeping a close eye on his surroundings, striving to be an excellent goalkeeper.
No matter who comes, they must be kept at least one meter away.
The reason it's one meter away is that the corridor is only one and a half meters wide, leaving half a meter for people to pass through.
Regarding the occasional roars coming from the office, the agent said he had done his best.
Inside the room, the man surnamed Qian had a livid face, suppressing his anger the whole way.
The moment the agent left and closed the door, a large slap landed squarely on Gu Wen's face.
He roared, "You bitch, you dare to play me for a fool! Didn't you say you stole the manuscript from Yuan Sixiao? How come there's this Feldman guy? You did this on purpose, didn't you?!"
Gu Wen found the news online unbelievable.
She clearly stole the manuscript from Yuan Sixiao, so how did Feldman suddenly appear? She had no idea what was going on.
The slap from the man surnamed Qian made Gu Wen's ears ring and her head spin.
Fearing that the man surnamed Qian might get carried away with the beating and forget the occasion, Gu Wen quickly offered an explanation.
"I'm not lying to you, this really was stolen from Yuan Sixiao... I know, it must be Yuan Sixiao, he plagiarized this Feldman, I'm the one who got implicated!"
Gu Wen felt she had found the answer.
Online, ever since Feldman released the video of his concert from a year ago, both Gu Wen's fans and Yuan Sixiao's fans have fallen silent.
Yuan Sixiao's fans, in particular, even after Gu Wen had her face pressed against his and used her ultimate move, still believed in their idol and thought he couldn't do such a despicable thing.
But now, faced with Feldman's evidence, they have lost the courage to fight back.
In particular, the lyricist and composer listed after the three Chinese songs sung by Feldman was not Yuan Sixiao, but an English name named Hill.
This Hill seemed to have appeared out of nowhere; he had been virtually invisible before.
Netizens searched on Baidu and found that this person named Hill had released several songs on a website in the United States a few years ago, which became very popular for a period of time.
But the person never showed their face, nor did they ever sign with a company.
They quickly disappeared from the internet.
Yuan Sixiao is far more famous than Gu Wen, and now that this incident has happened, the voices of doubt from netizens and fans are much louder than those from Gu Wen.
Many of Yuan Sixiao's fans even went to Feldman's Weibo page and tagged him, wanting to know who this Hill was.
They harbored a ridiculous fantasy, imagining that if Xiao Ge's English name was Hill, then it wouldn't be considered plagiarism.
Although, the possibility is extremely slim.
In fact, this idea is ridiculous.
Even if they deceive themselves, they are unwilling to believe that their favorite singer is a despicable plagiarist.
Yuan Sixiao has remained silent, which, in the eyes of netizens and fans, is tantamount to admitting to plagiarism.
Just when the situation on the internet was about to spiral out of control.
Feldman posted an update.
He posted a photo of himself with Yuan Sixiao. The two in the photo looked much younger and more vibrant, like they were seventeen or eighteen years old.
Feldman commented under the photo: Don't you know that Xiao's stage name in the US is Hill?
At the end of the question, Feldman also added a confused emoji.
Yuan Sixiao's fans felt like punching someone when they saw that meme.
"Damn it, I've never heard Brother Xiao mention an English name before, who would know?! That's hilarious!"
"Who would have thought that one second I felt like I was in an ice cave, and the next second I felt like I was in a dream come true? Can you please consider that I'm an old man? I almost had a heart attack from the fright!"
"Brother Xiao has kept this a secret for a long time! He actually knew Flyman so long ago. What's this? A surprise?!"
"Upstairs, that's called being frightened!"
"Let me summarize: So, these songs were indeed created by Brother Xiao, but Gu Wen stole the manuscript and then turned around and accused Brother Xiao of stealing her work."
Fortunately, good deeds are rewarded. A year ago, Xiao Ge gave the song to his good friend Feldman.
Because of his concern for Xiao Ge, Feldman did not commercialize these songs, but instead gave them to his fans at the concert.
As a result, Gu Wen was far away in China and had no idea that Xiao Ge's songs had already been released.
This is why her attempt to steal a chicken backfired; indeed, there's truth to the saying "evil begets evil."
"I've disliked this woman for a long time. With her pointed face and monkey-like cheeks, she's obviously no good!"
Yuan Yangyang's eyes lit up as she looked at the incredible plot twist on the internet.
"Second brother, how did you do that? You're amazing!"
If I hadn't confirmed that my second brother was a native of the book, I would have suspected that he was also a time traveler.
[This is incredible; some people might believe he was a prophet!]
