Chapter 17: Fermented

——“…Extremely disappointed! ‘We Still have Fish Here’ is actually a song copied by Yan Lu! It’s ridiculous that I didn’t believe it at first, and I patted my chest with my peers and promised that I was the one who could write such a powerful song. How could it be a person who was plagiarized under the name of originality? Extremely disappointed! Yan Lu, you have defiled the four words ‘original singer’, and you have also broken all the netizens who support you and like you!……”

——“…I didn’t believe that ‘We Still have Fish Here’ and ‘Old Boy’ were plagiarized songs until I listened to the original “Sorrow” and “I Came to You”. The similarity is as high as 70%, Yan Lu, Yan Lu, you almost copied the songwriters too! I’m so angry that I want to make foul language! I propose that the entire music industry collectively block strict laws. This kind of person is not worthy of singing to everyone!……”

——“…I said before that with Yan Lu’s life experience, I can’t write a song like “Old Boy” at all. In fact, I was completely right, he just copied it. It’s not because Cai Huang and I have been friends for many years that I helped him speak. You can listen to Cai Huang’s songs. That’s the real originality. There is also his song “Sorrow”, which is the best combination of lyrics and music. Everyone should support, or should they support an original singer like Cai Huang, a model of not forgetting the original intention…”

——“…I cried twice at the press conference, once for “We Still have Fish Here” and once for “Old Boy”. I still wanted such a clean and handsome big boy to be able to write such a touching song. It was really talented. But in fact, I just went to the family of the original author of “I Came to You” and asked them to verify it. Fortunately, I saw the handwritten manuscript of the original author and took a short video for everyone to see. There is really a picture and a truth! Yan Lu, you really let me down!……”

Near noon, the topic of Yan Lu’s suspected plagiarism has not diminished in popularity, and because many musicians and media people have continued to speak out, the popularity has become more and more intense.

Even this emotion has affected the emotions of people on the front line of disaster relief.

Many people in Taiwan have listened to “We Still have Fish Here” and gained strength. They look forward to Ji Kangxu’s donations and supplies arriving one day earlier, and they will rebuild their homes one day earlier.

As a result, such a news that made everyone angry was ushered in first, and the song that gave them strength was actually copied by Yan Li.

The feeling of being deceived made everyone angry almost at the first time, and they went online to find Yan Lu’s Weibo, scolding, cursing, and all kinds of vicious language smashed down like hail.

Yan Lu’s Weibo was paralyzed almost for the first time, and every corner was filled with verbal abuse, and there was no comment that supported Yan Li at all.

Even Ji Kangxu, Bai Zidi, Wang Feifei, Peng Xiao, and others, who have liked and re-tweeted celebrity artists who have supported strict laws before, are not immune to Weibo.

The entire network was filled with smoke, and this smoke was still one-sided.

Just as Yan Lu is alone, facing the anger and attacks of netizens across the Internet.

In the afternoon, the situation got worse. Yan Lu’s private mobile phone number was leaked, and the family situation was also exposed to human flesh, so that not only him, but also the owner of the nine-colour bar, Brother Tong, and several colleagues who knew him well, and even parents far away from home were targeted by netizens.

The terrifying harassing phone calls swept everyone into the vortex of public opinion almost within a few minutes.

In just one hour, Yan Lu’s mobile phone was called to kill the phone four or five times, and it was even worse. In less than half an hour, the phone became hot and hot. As a last resort, he had to withdraw the mobile phone card to stop it, the root of the ear.

By this time, the development of the situation had fallen into an uncontrollable state, so much so that individual state media began to speak out, reminding netizens to treat the incident rationally and not to act excessively.

However, it didn’t work at all.

Because, at four o’clock in the afternoon, the address of Yan Luxin’s rental house was leaked on the Internet.

The source of the leaked information is suspected to be a staff member who delivered to Yan Lu in the same city last night. He not only leaked the address information, but also leaked his candid photos of Yan Lu and the information in the house.

The vagueness, coupled with the addition of oil and vinegar, clearly shaped Yan Li into a person who spends a lot of money and is very big-name.

As a result, there was another wave of public opinion, and many netizens actually blocked the downstairs of Building 16 of Agarwood Garden, holding signs, yelling, and trying to throw stones at the windows of Yan Li’s house.

Even if all the security guards in the community are dispatched, they can only barely maintain order, but if they want to drive away the increasing number of people, they are a little powerless.

As a last resort, after consulting Yan Lu’s own wishes, the property chose to call the police.

The red and blue lights flickered, and they were on par, but they were safe anyway.

Otherwise, he was really worried about when a stone flew up and broke through the window, and he and Yan Lu splashed blood on the spot.

He clutched his chest and watched Yan Lu operate his computer. Before he could speak, he was frightened by Yan Lu’s flushed eyes. He hurriedly stopped his movements and asked worriedly: “Yan Lu, Yan Lu, don’t scare me, what’s wrong with you?”

Yan Lu only breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and said, “I seem to have found the information about the small music festival that Cai Huang said, but I’m not sure yet.”

“Are you really okay?” Qi Ming confirmed Yan Lu’s mental condition several times. After all, his eyes were really red like a rabbit going crazy, and then he looked at the screen, “Sorrow” was six years ago, which is the year 2013. This year is correct. The venue of the music festival is Hanjiang City, Jiangsu Province. The time is December. It’s winter…huh? Is this a commercial performance?”

The information Yan Lu found was really pitiful. It was a screenshot of an abandoned blog page that was found after several links, and the information on the screenshot was incomplete. The original blog page was taken with a promotional poster at the time. You can vaguely see that there seems to be Cai Huang’s name in the guest list, but the title of the song he sang can’t be seen at all.

But in any case, this is also the most useful piece of information found now.

Qi Ming immediately took a picture on his mobile phone and sent the picture to his friend.

He patted Yan Lu on the shoulder and said, “He has spoken to me for at most two hours. He must figure out what’s going on.”

The waiting time is too long, after a long period of torture, Yan Lu wanted to continue searching for information, but Qi Ming was worried that he would not be able to eat like this. After all, the two of them had not eaten at noon, so Yan Lu took a bowl of noodles alone.

Although there is not necessarily any nutrition, it is also a bit calorific to fill it in the stomach.

During the meal, Qi Ming worked hard to change the subject and enliven the atmosphere. He asked Yan Lu, “By the way, what song did you record in Lin Bei? He called me back last night and said that Lin Nan’s mood hadn’t recovered yet.”

Yan Lu was amused and said helplessly: “Isn’t it Tanabata Festival in two days? I recorded a song that fits the scene and am going to make a live broadcast debut that day.”

“Damn it! It’s a sweet love song again. I said it can’t be a little new. Single dogs are the ones who should be taken care of the most on that day.” Qi Ming pouted, and then came up again, “So what? What song? Let me try it out, bro?”

Yan Lu was still trying to sell him off, and he didn’t talk to him at all.

Qi Ming was helpless, so he had no choice but to continue talking, “Wait for the rumours to spread, your popularity will definitely have to climb to the first place in the hot search, and the live broadcast in two days will definitely have an explosion in the number of viewers. Do you want to broadcast live on which platform?”

“Vibrato!” Yan Lu said: “I feel that this platform is also quite complete now, and it is very convenient.”

“Hmm! Indeed, now is the era of video. The popularity of short video websites has actually surpassed that of Weibo. Now Weibo is a concentration of online scolding wars. If you want to see fresh and interesting things, you have to find these short video APPS, and in these APPS, vibrato is indeed more mature…” While talking, the phone of the same name rang.

He glanced at it, and then said excitedly: “My friend has already sorted it out, and it’s going to be lively on Weibo! Go, go onlookers!”
