Looking at the things Li Shang took out, many professionals at the event location picked up the photos and looked at them.
Those who came to visit the jewelry exhibition tonight more or less had some experience in designing and appreciating art. After seeing the two comparative photos, their expressions could not help but change slightly.
“They’re… really similar!”
“That’s right. It’s not just the shape but also the appearance! Although Qiao Weiyang’s design looks more magical, the two designs are really very similar!”
“Indeed. Although the details are different, they look like they’re from the same series. Could this be a modification made by Qiao Weiyang to this designer’s work?”
“Although there are some changes, to be honest, the idea is the same. There’s really no way to differentiate it.”
Everyone started discussing, and the way they looked at Qiao Weiyang changed quickly.
Although some ordinary audience members could not understand the similarities, they could not help but shake their heads when they heard those who were in the industry voice their opinions.
Discussions also sounded. “You shouldn’t bite off more than you can chew. Actually, Qiao Weiyang is already very talented. She should just focus on what she knows. Why does she want to seek more fame?”
“That’s right, that’s right. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just by focusing on acting and scriptwriting, she’ll be liked by everyone. Why bother doing this?”
When Qiao Weiyang heard the discussions, she looked at Su Zhuoqian helplessly.
How could Su Zhuoqian not understand that this matter was just nonsense?
As Qiao Weiyang’s husband, he knew better than anyone else how Qiao Weiyang had worked so hard to do this.
Her talent could not be slandered!
Seeing that he had gained everyone’s support, Li Shang said loudly, “Qiao Weiyang, what else do you have to say?”
“Li Shang, are you representing your and your teacher’s opinions?” Qiao Weiyang asked.
Her unworried expression made Li Shang’s heart sway.
Duan Xiuwen was still unaware of this matter, which was also the reason why Li Shang was a little shaken.
However, when he remembered that Duan Xiuwen was usually very attentive to designing and would even give up on eating and sleeping for its sake, Li Shang’s attitude became firm!
“Of course, it represents my opinion and my teacher’s! So, can you give us an explanation for this?!”
Qiao Weiyang smiled calmly and said, “Alright, then I’ll tell you the reason for this. It’s because the designs given by Mr. Duan Xiuwen are very similar to the design ideas of the designer named Q. Just as everyone said just now, even the details are the same. It’s as if they’re from the same series!”
Qiao Weiyang took out all the works that Duan Xiuwen had provided for the bidding. “I have them all here. They’re even more comprehensive than the designs you just showed just now. You can take a look for yourself. That being the case, how could I have used his designs?”
The big screen at the jewelry exhibition had already been replaced by Duan Xiuwen’s work.
The designs were projected one by one.
Those who knew the industry at the event location immediately saw them. “They’re really close! They’re practically the same!”
“I remember now. Isn’t this the design from the Tang Empire that Q designed for Hua Wen Jewelry two years ago? The young man from just now didn’t take out enough samples just now. I just found them a little familiar. Now that I look at his teacher’s other works, they’re indeed similar to Q’s!”
“I knew that I found his teacher’s work familiar!”
Li Shang’s expression changed slightly. “You’re all guests invited by Qiao Weiyang. You’re deliberately speaking up for her, right?”
Qiao Weiyang said calmly, “Whether or not they’re speaking up for me, can’t you just go to the side and take a look at things yourself?”
At today’s jewelry exhibition, Q’s works were very varied. There were many of Q’s works over the years that were displayed.
There was nothing added at the last minute. The booth was just over there. It was quietly placed and allowed people to visit.
Li Shang refused to believe it.
He strode toward the booth and looked at the works inside.
He learned design from Duan Xiuwen, so he could naturally tell what was going on.
Looking at the exhibition, he realized that Mr. Duan’s works, which he was so proud of and once admired, were really the same as Q’s works!
Beside Q’s work was clearly written the time and date. It was her work from two years ago.
Others might not know about Duan Xiuwen’s designs, but Li Shang knew very well that they were designed this year.
The truth was immediately obvious!
Li Shang’s face was pale, and he could not stand anymore.
He could not believe that the teacher he admired was such a person!
But the truth was right in front of him. He had no choice but to believe it.
Seeing him like this, the people around him sympathized with him. “Young man, don’t slander a good person without knowing the truth.”
“That’s right. Young people have to keep their eyes open. While you’re still young, quickly change teachers to learn from. Otherwise, you’ll ruin your life!”
Li Shang was dizzy and could not accept this blow.
However, someone in the crowd started discussing in a low voice. “In that case, the teacher that this young man mentioned, Duan Xiuwen, plagiarized Q’s design. Although this person isn’t worthy of being a role model, Qiao Weiyang’s design is very similar to his. Does this mean that Qiao Weiyang borrowed or even plagiarized Q’s design to come up with her design?”
This question was reasonable, and it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
Li Shang also regained some of his confidence. “Qiao Weiyang, how do you explain this?”
It was still difficult for him to accept the truth about his teacher, and he had already been so arrogant.
Everyone immediately looked at Qiao Weiyang quietly, wanting to see how she would explain this.
Zheng Mengwei slowly took a sip of red wine. She did not expect to see such an exciting scene today.
Today’s trip was really worth it.
Even if Q was from Hua Wen Jewelry and listened to Lu Wenhui, Qiao Weiyang’s public use of a design similar to Q was still a disgrace.
She swirled the glass of red wine, wanting to see how Qiao Weiyang would deal with this crisis!
She also wanted to see how Su Zhuoqian would accept Qiao Weiyang after this incident.
Facing everyone’s gazes, Qiao Weiyang looked a little helpless. She sighed softly.
Everyone couldn’t help but look at each other. Did she really do such a despicable thing?
Really, why bother?
However, in front of Su Zhuoqian, everyone only dared to discuss in low voices and not condemn her loudly.
Only then did Qiao Weiyang slowly say, “I’m sorry, everyone. I wasn’t hiding it from you on purpose before. Actually, I’m Q.”
