Chapter 200 - Admitting Ghostwriting

“I’m very sorry for wasting everyone’s time because of some things that originally didn’t need to be clarified.”

“Actually, if you look at the two pictures separately, there really isn’t anything different, but if you look at them at the same time, there are many details that are different.”

“First of all, in my painting, the police are wearing the cloak of the Grim Reaper, and under the cloak are bloody heads. Under my police mask, there is the logo of a terrorist.”

“The reason for the design was that the inspiration for this painting came from a major incident that affected the public order.”

“I think everyone can still remember that at that time, the terrorist pretended to be a policeman and shot a passer-by. I had already drawn a draft at that time. The reason why I decided to slowly perfect the painting from the draft was that I wanted to use this method to warn everyone not to be deceived by the fake police.”

“As for the details that I mentioned earlier, they weren’t reflected in Jiang Man’s painting, which was also Fox’s.”

“Putting aside the similarity between the method of creation and the proportion of the painting, I think the original intention of the two of us is completely different.”

Jiang Li’s words were to tell everyone that her painting was to warn everyone and wasn’t purely mocking the police.

However… Jiang Man’s paintings seemed to be different.

A painting that was purely mocking the police actually had the nerve to post it on the Internet. In an instant, the public opinion was completely reversed, and countless passers-by commented under Jiang Man’s Weibo.

“Do you know that it’s because of the police that we can guarantee our safety? Plagiarizing is plagiarizing, and you can’t even get to the essence of plagiarism. It’s disgusting.”

“How long do you plan on plagiarizing? Do you know that cloned sheep can only live for six years?”

“I hope that people who plagiarize like this can get out of the circle immediately and stop being disgusting.”

Jiang Man did not expect that things would turn around so quickly. She also did not expect that her rough memory at that time was completely different from Jiang Li’s concept of creation.

Jiang Man nervously scratched her fingers. She had even removed all the nail polish that she had just applied, but she still could not suppress the panic and nervousness in her heart.

“What should I do… No, I have to go find Jiang Li.”

After Jiang Man said that, she immediately got off the bed, put on her clothes, and prepared to go find Jiang Li.

At this moment, her phone rang again. She quickly opened it and found that it was the people who had come to scold her.

“I just found the draft. The exact time of the document can’t be faked. There are also all kinds of cloud records. I think this evidence should be enough to prove my innocence.”

The evidence showed that the draft of the picture was indeed the time of the social event that Jiang Li had just mentioned.

This time, Jiang Man was forced to make a choice.

If she still refused to admit that she had plagiarized, she would only receive more ridicule. It was better to just admit that she had a ghost artist.

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Man logged into Weibo and deleted the original picture before sending a long apology.

“I’m very sorry that I have let everyone down. Recently, in order to prepare for the college entrance examination, I have no way to continue to finish the picture, so I can only choose to update it through ghostwriting.

“This plagiarism incident is entirely because the ghostwriting company is not strict enough. In the future, I will definitely establish it myself and complete all my paintings. I hope that everyone can continue to supervise me.”

After Jiang Man sent this statement, she quietly guarded the comments on Weibo.

“How is that possible? She’s blaming the ghostwriting company again. How could it be that she doesn’t know that getting a ghost artist is more serious than plagiarism?”

“Above, Jiang Man is a ghost artist professional. Didn’t she look for a ghost artist before…”

“Wait a minute, she only said that she used a ghost artist recently, but I realized that her style hasn’t changed much since her comeback. Could she have been using a ghost artist from the start?”

“As an old Fox fan, I think I have a lot of say. I’ve always felt that the style of Fox’s comeback is too different from the past. Now that I think about it, could it be that Fox has been replaced by someone else?”

Everyone’s suspicions grew. There were even some who directly posted on AK Magazine’s official Weibo.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Immediately get Jiang Man to broadcast the painting live, or else we will suspect that the magazine and Jiang Man are lying to us!”

After Jiang Man saw everyone’s words, she completely panicked. She quickly ran downstairs, wanting to look for Jiang Li. She hoped that Jiang Li would cooperate with her and hide this matter from her.

However, the moment she opened the door, with a bang, an egg with a strong stench fell on her head.

“Jiang Man, are you shameless? You can either live-stream yourself drawing or quit the circle!”
