reporter Liu Yuhan
html On the evening of August 28, Liu Qingyao, one of the top 100 UP owners at Station B and a Pipa musician, posted a video on Weibo to defend her rights, saying that her original work "The Song of the Lanling King" was used by Liu Yu in a variety show She will sue Jiangsu Satellite TV, iQiyi, Youku, Shanghai Canxing Production and Liu Yu himself for infringement of use in " The Masked Dancer ".
As early as July, Liu Qingyao posted twice, saying that her original work "The Entering Song of Prince Lanling" was used by "The Masked Dancer" without permission. In the program, "The Song of King Lanling Enters the Battle" was interpreted as an ancient song, but in fact its original song has long been lost. The current song is an original work by Liu Qingyao's team.
Initially, Liu Qingyao filed a rights protection appeal with Jiangsu Satellite TV, iQiyi, Youku, and Shanghai Canxing Production, asking them to remove the video, publicly apologize, and provide compensation. Since then, the platforms have removed the resources, but have not apologized. However, the performer Liu Yu's Weibo and Douyin platforms still retain the infringing videos.
Liu Qingyao made her third rights protection statement on the evening of August 28, announcing that she would add Liu Yu as the infringing party. Liu Qingyao said that at first, considering that Liu Yu was a public figure, she only sent Liu Yu a "Work Infringement Notice" in the name of the company. Unexpectedly, Liu Yu's fans used it as a handle and determined that Liu Qingyao would not win the lawsuit. Because since defending her rights for more than a month, Liu Qingyao said that she has been slandered and abused by Liu Yu's fans online, and even insulted by the other party's photos. So this time she stopped wasting manpower and material resources on issuing legal letters and chose to sue Liu Yu directly. In response to questions raised by netizens such as "to gain popularity" and "to make money", Liu Qingyao said that she would donate all the compensation received from rights protection after deducting necessary costs.
Liu Yu participated in the talent show "National Style Beautiful Boy" in 2018, and later participated in " Creation Camp 2021", finally won the first place, and joined the idol boy group INTO1. Liu Yu has always appeared in the public eye as a beautiful boy with a Chinese style. The song "Prince Lanling Enters the Battle" he performed in "The Masked Dancer" is also a piece with a Chinese style.
After Liu Qingyao issued a statement of prosecution for infringement and , Liu Yu deleted the relevant video content on social platforms. At the same time, the official blog of INTO1 issued a statement, stating that "the copyright of the music performed in the program is handled by the program team, and our artists completed the performance after confirming with the program team that there is no objection to the copyright." Liu Yu forwarded it to express "respect and support" Be original and work together to create a good creative and performance environment."
In addition to Liu Qingyao's accusation, this is not the first time that "The Masked Dancer" has been accused of plagiarism and infringement. It is also Liu Yu's stage performance. Earlier, the blogger "Shen Yuexiao" accused Liu Yu that the mask he wore in the show was a copycat of his own original work.
