At the beginning of 2023, the song "Good Morning Longhui" that suddenly exploded was accused of plagiarizing "Aloha Heja Ha".
Just yesterday, foreign netizens Stuz0r posted a real hammer comparison on Twitter and Ig, shouting that Cai Xukun's stage background design copied his own work (this picture designed and produced by Stuz0r was released in 2021), ah no, this is not called plagiarism, it should be called copying.
Although Cai Xukun's online concert visual effects director Wang Zhiyuan immediately apologized, careful netizens found that it was not the first time that Cai Xukun's related designs were plagiarized.
As early as 2021, Cai Xukun's official concert tour announcement poster copied the works of French artist Tom Fabia.
In July 2022, Cai Xukun released the cover of the new song "HUG ME", the silhouette of which is the same as the poster of the 2010 movie "Encounter with Strangers", and the hand position, bending angle, etc. can be said to be exactly the same.
After the incident was exposed, wave after wave of Internet public opinion, and even many voices demanding withdrawal from the circle appeared.
Although the plagiarist is not Cai Xukun himself, but repeatedly just publicizing the copyright, it is also an unavoidable problem for the team. It can also be seen that the plagiarism chaos in the circle is endless.
In the impression, the earliest thing we heard and found was that Guo Jingming's "How Much Flowers Fall in Dreams" copied Zhuang Yu's "Inside and Outside the Circle", and then "Three Lives and Three Lives and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" plagiarized "Peach Blossom Debt", "Flower Thousand Bones" copied "Meisheng", "Immortal Sword Divine Comedy", and "Xiaosheng Pharyngeal".
In the previous years, "Splendid Weiyang" plagiarized 16 works by 12 writers, and the court awarded 740,000 yuan.
The prelude to "The Wind Blows", which has been popular on the Internet in 21 years, is the same as Mike Jackson's famous song "Billie Jean", and the lyrics are similar to Xu Xiaofeng's "Season of the Wind", and the climax is almost the same as Zhang Liangying's "If Love Goes On".
Even people do not plagiarize, copy AI?
"White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole" is a copy of 08 Hatsune Miku's "Sunset Saka".
And "Young You", which won the Academy Award for "Best Screenplay", has the same character setting as Keigo Higashino's "White Night Walking", and the whole story is like rubbing with "The Appearance of Suspect X", so "screenwriter" can still win an award? In the face of plagiarism, it has almost become the norm in the circle.
But in response to plagiarism, the three views of some domestic fans are often breathtaking, and in the face of doubtful voices, they often suppress these doubts with the advantage of numbers, just because there are few fans, and their arms can't twist their thighs?
Describing plagiarism as borrowing, and plagiarism as tribute, is a common way of defense for fans.
What is borrowing? What is a tribute? How is it plagiarism again?
To borrow the phrase of Onikichi:
Wu Chengen wrote a novel "Journey to the West", and then someone wrote "Journey to the East" and "Journey to the South", which is called following the trend;
Someone made a movie "Journey to the West" based on the plot of the book, which is called adaptation;
Someone borrowed the name of the Monkey King, the weapon of the golden hoop rod, and the tendon cloud to create a completely different world "Dragon Ball", which is called tribute;
Someone "original" a script, a Taoist priest with three apprentices was ordered by the emperor to seek the elixir of life, went through hardships along the way, Fu Demon Ge Laozhuang, crossed the Liusha River, and finally the master and apprentice became immortals, which is called plagiarism.
A girl was ashamed to confess and gave a copy of "Journey to the West" on the boy's birthday, and then knocked it on his head three times, which is called reference.
Some people may say, do re mi fa so la xi on seven tones, so many years and so many songs, how can it not be "similar"?
Please understand the algorithm of "power" first, and then discuss the "seven tones".
In fact, the reason why the so-called "borrowing" and "tribute" in these circles will emerge so endlessly, in addition to the difficulty of protecting intellectual property rights and the weak awareness of respecting the copyright of others, it is also the "money" that causes trouble.
Because of this "take-ism", it saves time, worry, effort and money. Just like the plagiarism of Cai Xukun's stage design at the beginning, this visual effect packaging moves his fingers COPY over, and a large design fee and packaging fee will be paid to the account, why not?
