On the phone, I explained the current situation in detail. After the other party expressed understanding, she asked Jian Anran to leave her contact information and said that she would get back to her immediately after the investigation.
When she hung up the phone, Jian Anran felt unsure.
It is unclear whether ZH conspired with the other party so that it could successfully win the project, or whether the project team directed and acted on its own, trying to monopolize the entire cycle from project design to construction.
No matter what the situation is, the word "fairness" alone cannot be used as a weapon to defend one's rights and interests.
"What are you busy with?" Ning Beibei just woke up from her nap, her sleepy eyes barely opened a crack, and she lay on the bed and looked at Jian Anran.
"Did I wake you up? I'm sorry." Jian Anran said apologetically.
"That's not true. You also know the quality of my sleep." After yawning, Ning Beibei sat up from the bed.
"You said, if we are reported for plagiarism, what counter-evidence should we provide?" Jian Anran suddenly asked.
For a moment, she didn't realize what Jian Anran was saying. Ning Beibei immediately got off the bed and rushed to her.
"What? Who plagiarized? Did the teacher who taught me the pictures in the last class finally find out that those people plagiarized?" Ning Beibei looked obviously very excited.
"I'm just saying, no matter how lax the teacher is, we can't do this. Their level is not called plagiarism at all, it's called copying and pasting..."
After complaining for a long time, Ning Beibei finished speaking what she had been holding in her stomach for a long time, and finally let out a sigh of relief with satisfaction.
"So, who was caught plagiarizing?"
Ning Beibei expressed her opinion passionately as soon as she woke up. Ning Beibei picked up the water glass on the table, took a swig of water, and looked at Jian Anran expectantly.
"Wen Siheng."
"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough..." Ning Beibei almost couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of water. Ning Beibei made a fist and beat her chest hard.
"Who are you talking about?"
"I said," Jian Anran paused, "Wen Siheng was reported for plagiarism."
"Isn't it?"
"No way?"
"Isn't this impossible?" After denying it three times in a row, Ning Beibei suddenly cast a look that was almost like asking for help. She was waiting for Jian Anran's denial.
Plagiarism is really difficult to measure according to the standards of the construction industry.
The established structural framework system, mature aesthetic development, and the accumulation of thousands of years of traditional heritage.
Standing on the shoulders of giants throughout the ages, it is difficult for the development of architecture to achieve qualitative innovation to a certain extent.
When Jian Anran first entered school, she was very skeptical about this sentence, but after a few classes, she immediately understood——
The various so-called routines and models currently on the market are all the best ones that have been preserved to this day after thousands of attempts by predecessors.
Not only do we need to invest a lot of financial, material and human resources in research, but we also need to accumulate experience. It is not just a few architectural students or even architects with certain experience who can create something earth-shattering.
Many works have been questioned for plagiarism, but they can often cover it up with just "borrowing". Including their course designs every time, unless they are exactly the same, the definition of plagiarism is really hard to say.
"Definitely not." Jian Anran raised a glance.
"Huh -" Ning Beibei breathed a sigh of relief, "I just said that Professor Wen is such a person, there is no way he would do such a thing."
After relaying what happened to Ning Beibei, she paused for a brief moment before she managed to digest the huge amount of information she had just received when she woke up. She came back with a glass of water and suddenly asked: "So, they said
Who did you copy?"
"Huh?" Jian Anran's mind stopped for a moment before she suddenly reacted. They were stunned the moment they received the notice. No one in the studio thought of this problem at all.
"Isn't it true? You guys came back without asking me questions clearly?" Ning Beibei asked in disbelief.
"They just copy what they say? How can you say they are copying in vain?"
After not hearing a response for a long time, Ning Beibei turned around and saw Jian Anran who was in a hurry to collect her things.
"What are you doing? Where are you going?" Ning Beibei asked.
"Office," Jian Anran pulled her bag, "Seniors and sisters are probably still having a headache about this matter. I'll go discuss it with them."
……
Different from the silence when she left, Jian Anran heard noisy sounds inside as soon as she walked to the office door.
The sound of files, keyboards, and conversations mixed in from time to time.
The headlights in the office were already turned on, and when the door was opened and everyone entered, everyone was already busy in their seats.
Noticing that Jian Anran had just walked in, Mi Yingying immediately raised her head and said, "You're here just in time. When you were preparing the project text, do you still have the text for the early concept generation and design instructions?"
Jian Anran nodded and heard Mi Yingying immediately say: "Just in time, you can send it to me now. I've almost finished organizing what I have on hand, and we'll make a compressed package together then."
"Is this what you want?" Jian Anran asked confused.
Song Qi, who was next to him, immediately replied: "If someone reports us for plagiarism, then we will provide materials to prove that we did not plagiarize. Junior sister, please sort it out quickly and send the documents over before the project team gets off work."
"But," Jian Anran immediately asked the question that Ning Beibei just discovered, "whose work did the other party report us for plagiarizing?"
My mind has been in confusion since I woke up in the morning. It was not until Jian Anran raised it that everyone realized this problem for the first time.
"Whoever makes the claim and provides evidence, and the other party says it has no basis. No matter what, we have to wait for them to produce evidence before we prepare the materials to deal with it."
"Submitting all the materials at once will make it easier for interested people to take advantage of it." After Jian Anran finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the office.
Even Xiangyi was stunned for a moment, and the hand that was collecting the documents stopped in mid-air.
Song Qi seemed to suddenly realize it. He rummaged anxiously through the piles of documents on the table, and finally found his mobile phone at the bottom of the folder.
"What's wrong, senior?" Mi Yingying asked in confusion.
"I have contacted the project team once before. I have saved the phone number of the docking staff. I will try to contact the other party first. You can sort out the documents at each stage first." Song Qi said as he hurried away with his mobile phone.
Leave the office.
At Wen Siheng's request, their previous documents had been named in detail according to date and category.
By the way, Song Qi and others stayed in the office and quickly sorted out all the drawings and written materials at each stage, packed them into compressed packages and backed them up on the hard drive.
"Pa-ta-" The office door opened and Song Qi walked in with his mobile phone.
"How's it going?" Mi Yingying asked immediately.
"The other party said that the case has been closed and no supplementary materials will be accepted. The winning bid will automatically be postponed to the second place." Song Qi's lips were so dry that they turned white.
