Chapter 239 Openly Admitting Guilt
Han Wenqing walked onto the stage himself and took the microphone from the host.
The crowd in the hall was surprised to see Han Wenqing suddenly take the stage.
"Huh? Professor Han is so impatient to get on stage?"
"He probably lost and is very unconvinced, right?"
"After all, he's a design consultant for New Tide Company, and now their Hanfu is completely crushed by Yangyangyang Qianyi Clothing Factory."
"Wait, think about it, aren't the clothes from New Tide Clothing Company and Yangyangyang's Hanfu a bit similar?"
"Are you implying that Yangyangyang Clothing Design Company copied Professor Han Wenqing's designs?"
"It's very possible! I think there's a possibility."
"Wait, wait, let's listen to what Professor Han has to say himself! If it really involves plagiarism, this matter will be huge."
Yang Long and Liu Xuhui, who were about to go on stage, suddenly saw Professor Han Wenqing walk onto the stage. Liu Xuhui was stunned, and then his expression became surprised.
He quickly said to Yang Long, "Oh! Brother-in-law, it seems there's still a turning point."
"Is Professor Han going on stage now to directly accuse Liu Ran of plagiarism?"
"If that's the case, then we can still get first and second place."
Yang Long frowned and said, "No way? The real plagiarist is him, Han Wenqing! Does he really dare to accuse Liu Ran now?"
Liu Xuhui immediately smiled and said, "It's hard to say. People like Han Wenqing, no matter how high and mighty he seems, he values his reputation very much."
"Now that he's been stepped on by Liu Ran, he must be unhappy."
"If he opens his mouth to directly accuse Liu Ran, then we should immediately go on stage and help him deal with that slut Liu Ran."
Yang Long also nodded, then turned to look at Old Mrs. Liu and said, "Grandma, you go on stage too!"
"You can also testify then, saying that your granddaughter is indeed a plagiarist. Once you speak, the audience won't doubt it."
"After all, if her own grandmother accuses her, then she is 100% a plagiarist."
Old Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "Okay, leave this to me. I will definitely splash all this dirty water onto that slut Liu Ran. Let's see if she dares to show off in front of us again."
After a group of people discussed, they no longer hesitated and immediately walked towards the stage, intending to cooperate with Han Wenqing to completely destroy Liu Ran and firmly pin the plagiarism label on her.
Han Wenqing on stage took the microphone, glanced at the entire audience, and was about to speak. At this moment, Liu Xuhui, Yang Long, and Old Mrs. Liu walked up.
Liu Xuhui immediately said to Professor Han, who was about to speak, "Hold on, we're here to support you. Say whatever you want boldly."
"I guarantee we will testify for you and will not let any plagiarist escape."
As Liu Xuhui finished speaking, the entire hall erupted.
The audience's eyes widened, flashing with gossip, waiting for the biggest spectator drama to unfold.
Han Wenqing glanced at Liu Xuhui and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then he turned to the entire hall and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Han Wenqing. Standing on this stage at this moment, I have to confess something, and that is that all the Hanfu products designed by our New Tide Company were actually plagiarized."
"The Hanfu we designed, the inspiration all came from a design drawing. Before, I was ashamed, I lost all my dignity, and I actually wanted to claim that design drawing as my own."
"Later I realized that the design drawing was from Liu Ran's hand, and it was stolen by our New Tide Company. I, Han Wenqing, am ashamed and have nowhere to hide."
"Therefore, I apologize and bow to everyone here, and bow to Miss Liu to make amends."
As Han Wenqing's voice fell, the entire stadium boomed with discussion, and disbelief appeared on everyone's faces.
They had expected some borrowing, but they never imagined that the person who plagiarized and borrowed others' works would be the famous and high-ranking Dean Han Wenqing.
Most importantly, Han Wenqing himself came on stage to admit all of it.
Standing on the stage, Yang Long, Liu Xuhui, and Old Mrs. Liu, who had come up as a trio intending to slander Liu Ran with all their might, now became three complete clowns, and were seen by the entire audience as the culprits.
Liu Xuhui took a step forward and shouted at Han Wenqing, "Old Han, are you fucking crazy? What are you talking about now?"
Han Wenqing suddenly turned around. Holding the microphone, he said loudly, "Liu Xuhui, shut up. Last time I was weak-willed, you used a set of design drawings to bewitch me and made me commit a principled error."
"I will no longer have the face to continue as a professor at Jinling University, nor to continue as the dean of the Design College at Jinling University."
"I will resign voluntarily and pay the price with my lifetime career for this matter."
"But Liu Xuhui, I'm telling you, you also have to take responsibility. Don't think that just because you're not a designer, you can act recklessly and steal other people's design drawings at will."
"Every design drawing is the most cherished child of a designer, and every design drawing is the most precious property of a designer. You are a thief who stole Liu Ran's work and then tried to completely destroy Ms. Liu Ran's company."
"You secretly poached their models and sound engineers, leaving their company without even a single model. Do you think no one knows what you've done?"
Under Han Wenqing's series of accusations, the entire stadium erupted with discussion. More than half of the audience even stood up and looked at the stage.
Most of the people who came to appreciate the fashion design competition were designers themselves. When they heard how shameless Liu Xuhui was, everyone clenched their fists and shouted in unison, "Arrest him, make him pay the price, bring him to justice."
Everyone was shouting loudly. Liu Xuhui was now scared and terrified. He retreated and tried to defend himself in fear, "You... you all shut up for me! That design drawing, that design drawing was picked up by me, it's not theft at all, just shut up!"
Saying that, Liu Xuhui turned and stumbled in fear, running off the stage.
Old Mrs. Liu was even more anxious. Worried about her eldest grandson, she hurriedly chased after him.
Yang Long's expression was grim. He had come on stage expecting praise and glory, but now the entire hall had turned into such a mess. Yang Long quietly left.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he wasn't in charge of New Tide Company. Otherwise, with this incident, his Red Sun Clothing Company would also be in trouble.
Just as Yang Long was secretly relieved, the large screen on the stage suddenly lit up.
It displayed a picture, which clearly showed the equity distribution of New Tide Clothing Company.
