2319 Twins
What Qiao Weiyang and Roman said was directly interpreted by him. He didn’t even need to pause.
Qiao Jierou didn’t expect this. She bit her lip tightly and planned to pull Roman back.
Roman was helping Qiao Jierou because she wanted to use her to attack Qiao Weiyang. She couldn’t be stopped at all.
She said, “Ask the others. Who wants to see Qiao Weiyang’s inspiration and half-finished products?”
After Frank interpreted, many people quickly raised their hands. Everyone had seen the evening gown Sheng Lan was wearing just now. They were conquered by the ribbon cutting and design. They were also attracted by the mysterious oriental aesthetics. Naturally, they wanted to see those things.
Seeing that the situation was very different from what she had expected, Roman couldn’t help but say, “I’ve already said that your inspiration and half-finished products are all Qiao Jierou’s. They were all discussed by the two of you. What right do you have to release them alone?”
“That’s a very good question. Since Qiao Jierou and I discussed this together, she should have her own records and backups. After my things are released to the public, I won’t plan to use them for commercial purposes anymore. As long as the others don’t use them for commercial purposes, they can admire them, study them, or discuss them.”
Everyone was shocked when they heard Qiao Weiyang’s words.
Designers valued their designs very much. They were afraid that there would be a slight problem or someone would use it as a reference. That would cause unimaginable losses to themselves.
Inspiration was hard to come by, and designers hid their half-finished products very well.
Qiao Weiyang actually wanted to directly publicize all her semi-finished products and inspiration. This was no different from taking out her precious wealth in life for everyone to share.
In the industry, only those who had reached the top had such courage and boldness.
“If I infringe on Qiao Jierou’s rights, she can sue me for infringement with evidence that has a timestamp earlier than or the same as mine. If I infringe on her rights, I’ll bear all legal responsibility. However, if she can’t produce any evidence, then it’s unnecessary to continue arguing with me!”
Qiao Weiyang’s words were powerful.
It also made many people stand on her side. The fact that she could show everyone documents that were marked with timestamps and could not be changed for everyone to admire, study, and discuss proved that she was not afraid.
“You! You…” Roman pointed at Qiao Weiyang and was speechless.
A smile slowly appeared in the corners of Qiao Weiyang’s cold eyes. “What’s wrong? Didn’t I give you a chance? I also gave you a chance to defend your rights. Is there anything else you’re not satisfied with? Do you still need me to hire a lawyer for you?”
She walked closer to Roman and Qiao Jierou step by step, and her smile became purer. “If you can’t provide evidence to prove that all these things are yours, then it means that they’re mine. Please remember not to use my things during the finals this time! Otherwise, I can’t be bothered to deal with it if you’re accused of plagiarizing. In particular, my things can be studied and discussed by everyone, but they’re not authorized to be used for competitions!”
Every word she said was like a knife that ruthlessly stabbed Qiao Jierou’s heart.
Qiao Jierou did not even have the strength to stand firm. She had studied the contents of Qiao Weiyang’s folder and had already taken out a few backup drafts for the competition. She had not thought of any other designs at all.
She thought that this folder could help her get an excellent ranking. It could even be used for many years in the future, allowing her to sit in the position of designer for a longer time.
Now, Qiao Weiyang actually took drastic measures and directly publicized everything, cutting off all her escape routes!
Could she defend her rights? No.
These works were not discussed by the two of them at all. They all belonged to Qiao Weiyang alone! She had no records!
Could she continue to use those things? No!
How could she use the things that Qiao Weiyang had publicized?
Everything that she treated as a treasure was so easily exposed by Qiao Weiyang. It turned as cheap as a blade of grass.
Many people at the event location had already logged into the online platform that Qiao Weiyang had mentioned and started to download her inspiration and half-finished products. The more they looked at them, the more amazed they became.
They might not be able to understand the words, but everyone could see the exquisiteness of the design draft.
As peers, everyone could tell at a glance if these things were valuable.
Many people were secretly ashamed. Many of the semi-finished products were comparable to the finished products they aimed for. The effects were outstanding, but Qiao Weiyang gave these designs up just like that.
The smile on Qiao Weiyang’s face did not disappear. She said to everyone, “Then I wish everyone good luck for the competition! I’ll see you on the field!”
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the door.
Everyone was still looking in her direction in a daze.
The reporters at the event location hurriedly recorded everything.
Frank stepped forward and told the reporters, “Just tell it as it is. There’s no need to change anything.”
Tao Huan quickly caught up with Qiao Weiyang’s footsteps. “Sister Weiyang, you were so cool just now! My god, you shocked everyone! I saw many people looking at you.”
“I just did what I’d been wanting to do for a long time,” Qiao Weiyang said. “It was really satisfying.”
“Sister Weiyang, you must have spent a lot of time to get those things done. If you show them to others like this, you won’t be able to use them in the future. It’ll even stimulate their inspiration. Don’t you think it’s a pity and a waste?” Tao Huan’s only confusion was this. Seeing so many treasures being shared by others made her heart ache.
However, Qiao Weiyang acted as if nothing had happened. She had put in so much effort. Was she really going to be burned to the ground just like that?
Qiao Weiyang waited for her to get into the car before saying slowly, “Qiao Jierou has copied everything in this entire folder, but I can’t prove that she plagiarized me. After all, her brainwashing methods are very difficult to counter-attack.”
“Then why did you publicize so many of your designs? You’re making a huge sacrifice.” Tao Huan still felt that it was a pity.
“You’re wrong. These things are far less important to me than they are to Qiao Jierou. Without these, I’ll still be me and can still design better works in the future. Without these, Qiao Jierou might not be the Qiao Jierou in people’s eyes.”
“That’s true. Qiao Jierou will definitely be furious.”
