The production crew went mad.

Su Botao was completely caught off guard by the situation. It took a while for him to get over it before he frantically tipped the mentors the wink and made gestures for crowd control.

This was live!

It was a live broadcast!

With Mr. Xixi’s comments going on air, Su Botao could only imagine the faces of all the viewers behind the TV.

The words came out of Mr. Xixi’s mouth, not nobody’s. Like Qi Xiu, Mr. Xixi was at the height of his career at the moment of his debut. A musician sought after by many, he was dubbed the hope of China’s music scene.

His words carried a lot of weight!

Finding himself in a difficult spot, Gu Yang was at a loss of what to do. Familiar? He would be skeptical if someone else said that live, but this was Mr. Xixi they were talking about. He trusted Mr. Xixi would not say sh*t in a large setting.

Fang Yao forced a chuckle, almost unable to keep her cool. As the mentor in charge, she gave a lot of help to Su Ruowan as the latter worked on her song and dance. Mr. Xixi’s statement was a slap in Fang Yao’s face. She had a tight feeling in her stomach. “You have a point, Mr. Xixi. Every outstanding song and dance have their similarities.”

She had to say something. Fang Yao wanted to get behind the meaning of Mr. Xixi’s words. Was Su Ruowan’s creation an original or a copy?

It was no surprise that there were cover songs in the music industry as long as the copyrights were in hand. Nevertheless, plagiarism was most frowned upon because this was stealing someone else’s hard work. Anything to do with cheating, stealing, defrauding, and murdering was a stain in life that could not be erased.

“Ms. Fang Yao is right.” Su Muyan tried to get it together. He spent a million to buy the song. The middle person guaranteed that there would be no issue.

He had to keep his cool and not lose his head at a time like this.

He had worked with the middle person for four years, and there had never been a case of plagiarism or betrayal.

Gu Yang and He Sumo were not going to let the topic carry on as they knew their priority was to swoop into action and stop it. Even if the plagiarism were true, it could not be exposed during this crucial moment when the program was broadcast to the entire country. The impact would be dire.

If Su Ruowan’s work was proved to be plagiarized, they, as mentors, would go down with her since the creation they helped to work on was a copy!

Su Botao let out a sigh of relief. He could not risk any more surprises now that the show was at its last two episodes. At the very least, it should not happen during a live broadcast if an unwarranted twist had to come.

Su Ruowan’s tensed nerves relaxed a little when Su Muyan gave her a look to chill. She loosened her fists.

She tried to comfort herself with the fact that her song and dance were procured by Muyan at a high price. Since Muyan had done it multiple times with no repercussions, everything must be alright.

Still, Xia Mi was not ready to let it go. She sternly gazed at the person sitting beside her. “Where have you seen it, Mr. Xixi?”

Shen Xi paused for a moment before answering, “The dance was all over the place in terms of genre. It’s like many dances copied and pasted in a different order. As for the song, I heard it on a music platform not too long ago.”
