CATDOLL: The result of Peking University Peiwen Cup Fan Fiction Plagiarism Award is out: Cancelled the award

We have previously reported that a senior high school student plagiarized a fan fiction of the well-known anime "Hetalia" when participating in the second "Peking University Peiwen Cup" National Youth Creative Writing Competition, which also attracted the attention of many netizens. The official also responded as soon as the plagiarism incident was exposed, saying that it would investigate the matter strictly. Now the official "Peking University Peiwen Cup" has officially announced the result of the incident: the plagiarist will be deprived of the qualification to win the award .

From the official announcement, we can see the following words: "According to the competition rules: 'Contestants must ensure that the works they submit are original, without any plagiarism or multiple submissions. If plagiarism or multiple submissions are found in the entries, the competition organizing committee will cancel their eligibility and award.' The competition organizing committee finally ruled to cancel Wang's eligibility and the first prize." It should be said that this plagiarism storm has been determined, but since this award also involves the recommendation for further studies, the impact is estimated to be not over yet.

However, many netizens expressed their sympathy for the committee members. One netizen said, "I feel sorry for the judges who are still studying BL fan fiction at such an old age. I don't know if it will open the door to a new world. But at the same time, I respect the judges' seriousness." Will similar plagiarism of ACG works happen in the future? Many people also said that they will continue to pay attention.
