Sikong Qing stared angrily at the typed headlines that appeared on the webpage, she was so angry that she closed the notebook.

"Damn it, who made these things! Now is the promotional period for the film..."

The phone rang all the time, but Si Kongqing didn't answer the phone, but looked deeply at Xin Yixiao who stood beside her silently.

Xin Yixiao originally asked Sikong Qing about the phone call last night, but she didn't expect that after the two of them had a few words, the producer made a phone call, and then she saw Sikong Qing's face change, and opened the phone as quickly as possible. notebook on the coffee table.

Xin Yixiao sat across from Sikong Qing. She looked at Sikong Qing who was frowning more and more puzzled, and asked, "What happened? You closed the computer in anger? Didn't you not know before?" Are you easily angry?"

Sikong Qing didn't answer Xin Yixiao's words, but looked at Xin Yixiao with probing and doubts in his eyes.

"Look for yourself." Sikong Qing pushed the computer in front of Xin Yixiao.

Not knowing why, Xin Yi took a small glance at Sikong Qing who had a bad face, and turned on the closed computer.

"The newcomer screenwriter Xin Yixiao's novel "Youth" is suspected of plagiarizing a novel "Youth" by the well-known writer Zhou An." The yellow eye-catching title appeared in front of Xin Yixiao.

Xin Yixiao's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the large characters on the webpage in the notebook, he didn't know why.When was her article plagiarized?

"Xiao Xiao, that article of yours, isn't it..." Si Kong Qing's eyes kept falling on Xin Yixiao's face, her shrewd eyes were full of scrutiny.

"Sikong, what do you mean?" Xin Yixiao raised his eyebrows, and his voice was a little louder.

"You should take a closer look at the details below. If I, a person who doesn't know how to write novels, read it, I would feel that these are indeed similar..." Sikong Qing stood up and walked to Xin Yixiao's side, pointing with his finger The writing on the bottom of the computer screen.

Xin Yixiao's face darkened, she didn't care about arguing with Sikong Qing, and devoted herself to the description of the article.

"Xiao Xiao, what do you think?"

"You doubt me?" Xin Yixiao raised her eyes from the computer screen, and looked at Sikong Qing beside her with a gloomy expression.

"It doesn't matter what I think. The problem is what other people think after the news comes out." Sikong Qing said mercilessly.

"Sikong Qing! What do you mean? You mean, you don't believe me either?" Xin Yi jumped up from her chair angrily, she closed the computer with a snap, stared at Sikong Qing and asked.

"I knew before that you had published a novel. However, I didn't ask in detail what it was. I originally thought that if it was after this shooting, it would be published to increase your popularity. But now that this report appears, you know what it means Is it?" Sikong Qing pushed the blue eye frame and asked in a deep voice.

Xin Yixiao sensitively caught other meanings in Sikong Qing's words. She cleared her throat, suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, and asked, "What does it mean? I haven't really plagiarized. What am I afraid of!"

"It means that you are likely to lose your reputation. Don't tell me that you don't know how important reputation is to a writer. If you get involved with plagiarism, do you think you will have a future?" Sikong Qing looked serious, The tone of the speech was also a bit heavy.

"Can't we explain it? Is it what people say?" Xin Yixiao asked back.

"If you say that I copied you, then what I say will be useful. But you can't. Because you are a newcomer. The newcomer has no connections and no mass base. Do you think that what you say is believed?" Sikong Qing shook his head. , she is not Xin Yixiao, she will not imagine things so simple.

"Then, what do you think we should do? I didn't plagiarize in the first place, why should I take the blame?" Xin Yixiao stared at the ground irritably, but what Sikong Qing said just now echoed in her mind.

If you say that I copied you, then what I say will be useful.But you can't.Sikong Qing's words showed her weak position.

"Xiao Xiao, let me ask you a very solemn question. Have you really plagiarized? Answer me after you think about it. I know that when you write a novel, you will inevitably be influenced by other authors' novels. Are you really sure that you haven't read it? The novel "Youth"?" Sikong Qing asked with eyes.

"No. I haven't even read the novel Youth." Xin Yixiao replied affirmatively.

Sikong Qing stared at Xin Yixiao for a while, and then said, "Since you have never plagiarized, there is only one way now."

"any solution?"

"Let Zhou An come to clarify the facts." Sikong Qing said word by word.

"Then why hesitate, let's go find Zhou An." Xin Yixiao showed joy.She didn't want to bear such a big black pot on her back.

"I'll contact the producer first. You wait for me in my room. By the way, I'll send someone to send Zhou An's novel "Youth" to you later. Let's see what is the difference between you and his novels. different."

"Okay. Then I'll wait for you in your room. If you have any news, please contact me." Xin Yixiao nodded.

After Sikong Qing left, Shui Yixue called to inquire about the situation.Xin Yixiao didn't want to say more, and before the matter was settled, she didn't want Shui Yixue to worry, so she simply said a few words, saying that she would wait for news from Sikong Qing, so she wouldn't go back to the room today.

After hanging up Shui Yixue's phone, Xin Yixiao hesitated whether to call and talk to Fang Sike about this matter, but before the phone number was dialed, Xin Yixiao still exited the dialing interface.

At this time, she really needs Fang Sike.But, she did such a thing to Fang Sike, can she call her so brazenly?Especially when she's having trouble herself.The courage to call Fang Sike in the morning seemed to have disappeared, Xin Yixiao looked at the button lying on the palm of his hand, and slowly clenched his fist.

Si Ke, Xin Yixiao muttered the familiar name in a low voice.

In the evening, at 22:[-], in Sikong Qing's room.

"How is it? Has Zhou An been in contact?" Xin Yixiao saw Sikong Qing walk into the room, and hurriedly asked.

Sikong Qing looked at Xin Yixiao who was full of expectation, and shook his head slightly.

"Then what should I do? Is it the connection?" Xin Yixiao didn't expect things to go so badly.

"The other party replied that he would not make any statement on the news. As for how we deal with it, they don't care. However, they have a requirement that Zhou An's reputation should not be damaged. Also, they said that if you If you frankly admit plagiarism, they don't have to pursue it." Sikong Qing said with a sigh.

"What do you mean?" Xin Yixiao was taken aback, looking at Sikong Qing and asked.

"Zhou An said that he hates plagiarism the most. If you admit it, he can let the past go. When newcomers inevitably make mistakes, you can forgive them." Si Kongqing walked up to Xin Yixiao, put his hands on Xin Yixiao's shoulders, and slowly Said.

"Then what does the producer mean now?" Xin Yixiao's heart sank.

"It's only been eleven hours since this news came out, but there have been over ten million clicks on the Internet. And because of your incident, the screenwriter of the new film has also been questioned. Some people question whether there is plagiarism in the new film. Phenomenon..." Sikong Qing glanced at Xin Yixiao who had a gloomy complexion, and said calmly.

"Just tell me the result." Xin Yixiao pushed away Sikong Qing's hand on his shoulder and asked in a deep voice.

"The producers want you to go out and admit to plagiarism when things get worse. Of course, you don't say it directly, but you borrow it... If you agree, then you will quit the screenwriting,...Little, you It is the best choice to take a reference.”

"That's enough! You really don't believe me." Xin Yixiao chuckled, she stepped back half a step, looked at Sikong Qing, the breath stuck in her throat, almost spurting blood.

"Xiao Xiao, you know that I don't want to do this. This choice is also for your own good. After all, if things get serious, it will be even worse for you in the future." Sikong Qing sighed helplessly, and took a step forward, trying to comfort Xin Yi. Small.

"Don't come here." Xin Yixiao roared angrily, his eyes were red.

"I know that you will participate in the National Youth Literature Competition in three months, and your work should be almost finished. If something goes wrong with you now, you will have no chance to participate. Are you going to give up the opportunity once every four years? "Sikong Qing comforted me tactfully.

"For the sake of the future, do I have to admit to unwarranted charges?" Xin Yixiao shook his head, looking at Sikong Qing in disbelief.

"The short sacrifice is worth it, isn't it?" Sikong Qing asked puzzled.

"It's worth it? Hehe. Sikong Qing, you don't understand at all. If I plead guilty to this trumped-up crime today, then I will have to bear this crime for the rest of my life. Is this a worthwhile sacrifice? Even if I write well in the competition in the future, you I think people think that I, a plagiarized author, will win the award? Am I too naive, or are you too naive?" Xin Yixiao smiled wryly, her heart getting colder and colder.

She never knew that there was such a big gap between her and Sikong Qing's ideas.Friends these years, she doesn't seem to really understand the person in front of her.

"Xiao Xiao, you are the one who doesn't understand. In this circle, the strong prey on the weak. If you can win an award, then everything you did before doesn't matter. Also, I don't want you to admit plagiarism, but to learn from it. It's a sideline. "Si Kongqing knew that Xin Yixiao had misunderstood her, so she said hastily.

"Then are you sure that I will win the competition in three months' time?" Xin Yixiao raised her head and asked.

"I..." Sikong Qing fell silent.

The atmosphere in the room calmed down, Sikong Qing and Xin Yixiao stopped talking.Xin Yixiao looked up at the dim light in the room and sighed.At this moment, she really misses Fang Sike, and Fang Sike will definitely not persuade her to admit the trumped-up charge of plagiarism like Si Kongqing did.

But, where is Fang Sike now?
