On May 21, the solar term was small and full. Unexpectedly, the circle of friends was swiped by an advertisement of Audi.
This advertisement does not introduce a certain model, but only takes Xiaoman as the title. Please tell Andy Lau a philosophy of life. Andy Lau's tender narration has aroused wide resonance among netizens and is known as the "Qingliu" and "masterpiece" of advertising and marketing.
However, such a film with more than 100 million broadcast on the whole network is actually in the quagmire of "plagiarism".
On May 21, Tiktok, whose ID is "man ge of Peking University", posted a video saying that after Audi released the video of "Xiao man of life", many netizens went to the message area to accuse man ge of stealing and plagiarizing.
Dissatisfied with the wronged "man ge of Peking University", the sentence by sentence comparison shows that Audi's solar term marketing copy is almost the same as its Tiktok copy. The difference is that man GE's original poetry and copywriting were released in the Mid Autumn Festival of 2018, may 2020 and 2021 respectively.
In the video, "Beida man Ge" pointed directly at the advertising short film of Audi's life Xiaoman and copied its copy, saying that he didn't think Andy Lau would copy the copy, and the real responsible party needed to stand up and explain.
Public information shows that "full brother of Peking University" has about 5 million fans in the whole network. It is an educational video blogger and has long been doing educational consultation for parents and students.
On the morning of the 22nd, Audi's official microblog issued a statement, "expressing sincere apology". The statement also said that the video was submitted and implemented by the creative agency, and Audi's official channels will comprehensively take the video off the shelves.
Some netizens commented that this wave of Audi operation "pits Andy Lau".
At present, this advertisement on Andy Lau's account has been deleted.
