Shocking! The nation is giving her strong support to become a top crossover influencer.

Chapter 132 Responding to Plagiarism

Everyone present was taken aback. Tian Qiushui's answer seemed to have a hidden meaning, implying that all of this might be a farce orchestrated by Li Yao.

The live chat exploded again, with fans lamenting the loss of team spirit and expressing their opinions in the comments: "Is Tian Qiushui implying that Li Yao made up the story?" and "Is the internal conflict within the group that serious?"

Subsequently, the trending topic "[Tian Qiushui responds to Li Yao being bullied]" quickly climbed the Weibo charts, attracting more attention and discussion from netizens.

Seeing this, Qi Shao quickly changed the subject to prevent the atmosphere from deteriorating further.

He moved on to the next question, which was directed at the belly dancer who had performed earlier: "Aren't you ashamed to be dancing when you're so fat?"

This was a very harsh question, but the belly dancer didn't seem to care at all.

She smiled slightly, her eyes full of confidence: "I can take charge of my life, but you can only hide behind the screen and be a clown. You are the real disgrace."

These words are like a sharp sword, piercing those who hide behind their screens and maliciously slander others.

As soon as she finished speaking, enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience, and the belly dancer's social media account instantly gained tens of thousands of followers. Netizens praised her confidence and courage.

Then, everyone's attention returned to the big screen, waiting for the questions about Jiang Songchu.

When the problem finally surfaced, the scene fell silent.

Jiang Songchu looked up at the questions on the big screen, a hint of confusion flashing in her deep eyes. Her brain seemed to freeze for a moment. What was all this about?

"Jiang Songchu's performance of 'New Remix of Yu Diao Lv Yao' plagiarized the dance concept of the National Dance Troupe. Can such a person continue to participate in this program?"

This question struck Jiang Songchu like a heavy hammer, leaving her feeling suffocated.

Qi Shao's gaze fell on Jiang Songchu, and the atmosphere on the scene became tense.

The audience turned their attention to Jiang Songchu, awaiting her response.

Jiang Songchu took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She knew that she couldn't panic at this moment; she had to calmly face this sudden question.

She calmly stepped forward, looked firmly at the camera, and said in a clear and powerful voice: "Regarding the plagiarism allegations against 'New Yu Tune Green Waist,' I would like to say that dance is an art, and art requires inspiration and innovation."

"The inspiration for 'New Reinterpretation of Yu Tune Green Waist' comes from my in-depth research and understanding of the ancient dance 'Green Waist'. On this basis, I added my own understanding and innovation of the dance, making it present a brand new style."

Jiang Songchu paused for a moment, then continued, "The charm of dance lies in its diversity and inclusiveness. Different dancers will have different understandings and expressions of the same dance."

"I firmly deny the plagiarism allegations."

"The New Reinterpretation of Yu Tune Green Waist is my original work, and every step is based on in-depth research into traditional culture and dance innovation."

"We respect intellectual property rights and are willing to accept any form of review."

"Plagiarism is a desecration of art. I adhere to my principles and let my abilities speak for themselves."

Her words were full of self-assurance, which made the audience and mentors present feel her sincerity.

Jiang Songchu's rebuttal was powerful and reasonable, which not only cleared his name but also won the respect of the audience.

The atmosphere gradually calmed down, and the audience applauded Jiang Songchu, cheering for her courage and talent.

Meanwhile, the online comments and bullet screen messages began to shift, with many netizens expressing their support for Jiang Songchu: "Jiang Songchu's response was fantastic, she is truly outstanding!"

"Dance requires innovation, and Jiang Songchu has done a great job!"

"The plagiarism accusations are unfounded. Keep it up, Jiang Songchu!"

"As a dance student, only God knows that Jiang Songchu's first dance was something that ordinary people could not possibly accomplish!"

After the Q&A session was filled with questioning or provocative questions, the production team decided to end the Q&A session. Another reason was that it would be 3 o'clock in 20 minutes.

At 2:58, Qi Shao stood back in the center of the stage, and his voice rang out again, full of passion and encouragement.

"Contestants, are you ready to take on the challenge? Your family, friends, and fans are watching you. Every vote they cast represents their support and trust in you."

"Now, let's look at the real-time votes on the big screen and see who will emerge victorious in this dance extravaganza!"

As Qi Shao spoke, the real-time vote count began to scroll across the large screen, bringing the atmosphere to a climax.

The contestants stared intently at the screen, their hearts pounding with each change in the vote count.

This is not only a competition of dance skills, but also a contest of popularity and charm.

The real-time nature of the live stream gave everyone an unprecedented sense of tension and excitement.

As the clock ticked quietly, the three o'clock bell rang precisely on time, making the atmosphere at the recording site even more tense.

The voting channel on the big screen closed precisely at that moment, like an invisible gate cutting off the ripples in the fate of all the contestants.

Immediately afterwards, the rankings, which symbolized the contestants' fate on stage, unfolded slowly on the big screen like a sacred book.

The contestants' hearts raced, and the audience held their breath, waiting for the final result to be revealed.

Qi Shao stood in the center of the stage, his signature smile on his face. His voice was loud and passionate: "At this moment, the list of winners of our first round of preliminary stage eliminations has been released. Please look at the big screen!"

The lights on stage instantly focused on the big screen, and the audience's eyes were all drawn to it.

The list on the big screen started counting down from the forty-fifth name, and each name that appeared was accompanied by shouts of joy or sorrow.

Some of the contestants who saw their names burst into tears of joy, their eyes brimming with tears. They excitedly hugged the contestants around them, celebrating their victory.

Some cheered excitedly, waving their fists, their faces beaming with bright smiles, as if all their efforts and sweat had been rewarded at this moment.

The contestants who didn't see their names stared nervously at the screen, filled with anticipation and anxiety, hoping their names would appear on the list later.

Some contestants had already given up, looking at the screen indifferently, feeling somewhat disappointed but accepting the result with equanimity.

Then, the truly tense moment arrived.

At this point, only the top five and bottom five remain to be announced.

The production team is very good at playing mind games. They decided to announce the list one by one, starting with the fifth from the bottom, then the fifth from the top, and so on until the first place was announced.

This suspenseful approach kept everyone present on the edge of their seats, afraid of missing a single detail, their hearts pounding.
