In today's era of globalization, cultural exchanges are becoming increasingly frequent. As an important cultural carrier, the scope of dissemination and influence of film and television works are constantly expanding.

As a highly-watched costume drama, "Tang Dynasty Weird Stories" has been caught up in a controversy over plagiarism. This incident has not only caused an uproar in China, but also triggered people's in-depth thinking on cultural creation and intellectual property protection in an international context.

From an international perspective, competition in the film and television industry is no longer limited to the domestic market. With the development of the Internet and the strengthening of global cultural exchanges, excellent film and television works can quickly cross borders and attract audiences from all over the world. In this case, originality and uniqueness have become key factors for works to stand out in the international market. A work suspected of plagiarism will not only damage its own reputation, but also affect the image of the entire national film and television industry.

The accusation of plagiarism against "Strange Stories of the Tang Dynasty" reflects the lack of innovation in domestic film and television creation.

On the international stage, film and television works from all countries are showing their unique cultural charm and innovative thinking. However, some of our creators have chosen the shortcut of plagiarism, which is undoubtedly a short-sighted behavior. Plagiarism not only cannot create truly valuable works, but also makes it difficult to gain a foothold in international competition. We need to cultivate and encourage creators to tap into local cultural resources, create with unique perspectives and innovative methods, and show the breadth and depth of Chinese culture.

At the same time, this incident also highlights the importance of strengthening intellectual property protection in the process of internationalization.

In the international film and television market, the protection of intellectual property rights is of vital importance. Only by establishing a sound intellectual property protection system can we safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of creators, stimulate their creative enthusiasm, and promote the healthy development of the entire industry. We should take suspected plagiarism seriously and punish it according to law. Only in this way can we create a fair, just and innovative creative environment and allow Chinese film and television works to win respect and recognition internationally.

In addition, stylist Chen Minzheng responded by saying that he thought it was an AI picture, which was criticized by netizens. This also reflects the public's concern about the creators' sense of responsibility.

In an international creative environment, creators must not only have the ability to innovate, but also have a strong sense of responsibility. The elements and designs used in the works should be strictly reviewed and checked to ensure their legality and originality. Chen Minzheng's response was obviously not recognized by the public, which also reminds us that when facing problems, creators cannot be perfunctory, but must be brave enough to take responsibility and take active measures to solve the problems.

From a broader social perspective, the plagiarism scandal of "Strange Stories of the Tang Dynasty" also brings us some insights.

First, it reminds us to strengthen public education on intellectual property rights and raise the awareness of intellectual property rights in the whole society. Only when everyone realizes the importance of intellectual property rights and consciously abides by relevant laws and regulations can we fundamentally curb the occurrence of plagiarism. Secondly, the supervision of the film and television industry also needs to be further strengthened. Relevant departments should increase the crackdown on illegal acts such as plagiarism, regulate the market order, and ensure the healthy development of the industry. Finally, we should also encourage the public to actively participate in supervision and form a good situation of social co-governance.

In short, the suspected plagiarism of "Strange Stories of the Tang Dynasty" has sounded an alarm for us.

In the tide of internationalization, we must continuously improve our own creative level and awareness of intellectual property protection, promote the development of China's film and television industry with a more open, innovative and responsible attitude, and contribute more excellent works to the world.
