Little Pink Starfish

The Chinese style swept through the music world, and many people discovered the uniqueness of this type of song, causing countless discussions. The album, which gathered more than ten excellent songs, immediately became extremely popular and went viral.

At this time, someone wanted to find the person who first released these songs, to have him appear on entertainment programs and talk about his experiences or something. However, Star Emperor Entertainment Group suddenly issued a statement, saying that the original author of the song “Blue and White Porcelain” accused the person who released the song of theft?

Wodeca yo!
Previously, Star Emperor Entertainment Group had an endless dispute with a net author due to a plagiarism scandal. Now there’s a music theft scandal… is this bad luck or just a publicity stunt? But if it’s for publicity, it doesn’t make sense—because the author from the previous plagiarism scandal really disappeared without a trace! Their reputation was completely ruined!

The public relations team of Star Emperor Entertainment stepped forward once again.
They said the group was really innocent, because their technology was too strong, the company’s foundation too solid, and their entertainment coverage too broad. People just had no choice but to cooperate with them.
People believed they would protect the interests of the original creators! What strong trust this was! It fully showed that their Star Emperor was the best!
Jealous people, don’t talk nonsense! Who needed promotion! Did such a powerful thing need to use self-defilement as a means of promotion!

Afterwards, the group released a series of statements.
They stated that this album was the result of a small group dedicated to art and who had studied Chinese style for many years, coming together after long-term coordination to produce this unique style. They originally intended to release it slowly for the public to accept, but somehow one high-quality song was stolen. In a fit of anger, they decided to only cooperate with Star Emperor.
Only Star Emperor’s hardware was strong enough to quickly find suitable singers and use the best equipment to rapidly produce the album!

And because they were so angry and not lacking in money, they decided that except for the funding needed to produce the album, the singers’ remuneration, and a small portion for operation, all other profits would be donated to a charity fund!
They said they were inspired by the previous plagiarism scandal—they would rather not make money themselves than let the thief benefit!

Additionally, Star Emperor told everyone, the members of that small group were: Zhou Dong, Master Fang, Young Master Lin…
Everyone hearing these names immediately knew they were all rich people, right?
Rich people didn’t care about this little money!
What they played with was!
Art!
Hng.

Then Star Emperor started hunting for the thief.
They insisted on finding out who registered that ID at the beginning, and how they stole someone else’s work. They had to find them and send a lawyer’s letter!
If the thief refused to admit it! They were welcome to step forward now! Face-to-face tearing! The audience would assign a topic and compose a song! Who was real, everyone would know!

These words stirred up a lively commotion.
But the thief, no one could ever find them…
Later, “Blue and White Porcelain” was included in the album, making it impossible for the thief to profit from it at all.

Meanwhile, the greasy pony man watching the entertainment news at home twitched his already stiff, surgically altered face and angrily smashed the remote control at the TV.
Star Emperor! Again Star Emperor!
No, it should be said, that transmigrator!
Was it one person or a group? Why were they going against him again!

After smashing it, the greasy pony man covered his face and fell backward onto the sofa.
Face-to-face confrontation? Tearing each other in public? How could he possibly…
He himself didn’t even recognize musical notation. The previous song was something he sang to coax a girl who studied music, and she made the score. The greasy pony man just sang it with a good voice, that’s all.
Totally unprofessional.

Once on stage, in front of everyone, sure, he could confidently pull a song from his golden finger, but if it was limited to Chinese style, he couldn’t guarantee he’d find one.
If he couldn’t, what awaited him would be overwhelming accusations, and even if he found one, he couldn’t write sheet music—how could others possibly believe him?

If that other transmigrator hadn’t pulled out so many Chinese-style songs, the greasy pony man could still claim it was a flash of inspiration, hummed it out, and had someone write the score. But that transmigrator had released so many Chinese-style songs, especially ones like “Chrysanthemum Terrace” that had an extremely similar style, and he used such an excuse—who would believe it?
In the end, he would just be the meat on someone else’s chopping block.

The greasy pony man wasn’t willing to give up.
Songwriting was still a path—now that he was in the spotlight, he dared not act rashly. Chinese style wouldn’t work, could he not just switch to another type of song? He didn’t believe it—his head was full of popular songs without a fixed style. Let’s see how that transmigrator would fight him then!

Putting aside the previous failure, the greasy pony man revived his cockroach-like spirit.
He began carefully selecting, choosing those popular, wildly chased-after songs… This time, he would be more cautious. After “creating” all of them, he would make his move.

As for the money issue?
He wasn’t worried at all.
Someone already admired him, believed in his ability, and believed that he would one day shine brightly—

Gu, who was in charge of investigating that greasy pony man, couldn’t understand it at all.
Honestly, this guy would’ve been better off as a professional gigolo than constantly plagiarizing, right? That so-called “talent”—as long as he didn’t try to make a profit from it and just used it to flirt with girls, no one would bother him. As long as he didn’t step on the original creators to act arrogant, claim others’ work as his own, and even scorn the talented people who already had rich knowledge and ability in this world, it wouldn’t have led to him being so detestable.

Just like now—he had already been exposed. The attempt to use Chinese style to gain fame was no longer possible, yet the greasy pony man still started plagiarizing currently popular pop music. He was even humming songs to the girl next door. That song was called “Too Softhearted.”

Candle】.

Why bother?
With such a big golden finger, wouldn’t it be better to at least study or learn a bit? Even if he borrowed some elements, could he not slowly create something of his own fame? Did he really have to plagiarize? Many graduate students and PhDs didn’t even have the greasy pony man’s memory. Why did he have to copy? Truly someone used to reaping without sowing, hopeless.

Unfortunately, even though that girl had strong music skills, a great background, and even a professional recording studio, making this song work still wasn’t easy.
After all, she had to extract the score from the greasy pony man’s humming, then think about instrument choices and recording… It would take time.

But this couldn’t compare to our overbearing (perverted) CEO.
Moreover! The CEO could read musical notation!

With one order from Qiguan Rui, his professional team started working on this matter. Almost instantly, they found a suitable singer for “Too Softhearted,” recorded it at top speed, and made it into a single.
And the profits? All donated to charity. That’s just how high-class they were!

However, because the greasy pony man had not released the song and was hoarding it at home, Qiguan Rui’s side didn’t publish theirs either.
As the saying goes, money makes the devil grind the mill.
The greasy pony man’s neighbor was now replaced with a… very skilled private detective.

—Professionally monitoring the greasy pony man, to fully understand his movements.
As long as he recorded a song, the detective would immediately notify the employer, who would instantly have someone record and produce the single!

One song after another after another, the singles accumulated.
But it wasn’t over yet.

The greasy pony man wanted to rise to fame in one go, and of course had a plan. But no matter the plan, he couldn’t beat the detective’s high-tech skills.
For example, a pinhole camera was installed in his room, making all his actions monitored, and everything he said and did recorded…

So Qiguan Rui heard the greasy pony man muttering song titles or occasionally singing a few lyrics.
Any song like that, he recorded all of them, used his powerful memory to write the sheet music, and successfully had them recorded.
But the greasy pony man, due to hardware limitations, had to choose which songs to produce, so he couldn’t get all the ones he mentioned made.

Next, Star Emperor made another move.
The PR department said there would soon be a very large event. They would gradually release songs composed over the years by low-key artists to celebrate Star Emperor’s xx anniversary.
And they really started releasing songs of extremely high quality!
One after another after another—each one super nice to listen to, wasn’t it!

Gu Bai listened expressionlessly.
Some of the songs were ones the greasy pony man had mentioned but hadn’t recorded, and some he never even brought up. Real and fake mixed together, the pervert was trying to mess with the greasy pony man’s mind.

On the other side, the greasy pony man was extremely nervous. Once he saw that only a few of the released songs overlapped with his, he relaxed.
But he never expected—the other side wasn’t done yet…

Just when the greasy pony man realized that Star Emperor had released enough to form a full album, and he himself had just about finished preparations, he quickly contacted another fairly powerful company and signed a contract.
That entertainment company was envious of Star Emperor’s recent success. Though they didn’t hope to compete equally, they wanted to seize part of the market.

At that time, they had no idea the greasy pony man was the key figure in the previous theft scandal.
So, they were truly unlucky!

Right when they started advertising, released a few sample songs to attract fans—damn, they immediately received a lawyer’s letter from Star Emperor’s side!
Wocao! Was Star Emperor not done yet?
XX Entertainment Company expressed dissatisfaction!

Qiguan Rui sneered coldly.
Star Emperor’s PR team waved a hand and threw out recording proofs for those songs—each one recorded earlier than the greasy pony man’s! Each one turned into a single earlier! Numerous singers came out to testify!

—Even the first song recorded by the greasy pony man had long ago been released by Star Emperor, and was removed from the greasy pony man’s album as a duplicate.
So…
No way to wash this clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River!

Star Emperor PR Department: You actually plagiarized! Do you know how hard we worked?!
