The movie “The Three Evils” has sold nearly NT$2.5 billion at the box office in mainland China. It is also ranked among the best on Netflix and has received quite a lot of attention. However, since its release in Taiwan, the director has directed films such as “Sea Fog” and “Gangster”. Qian Renhao has been accusing the film of plagiarizing the script he had been preparing for many years and “lawless”. In response to this, director Huang Jingfu and producer Li Lie stepped up and hired lawyers to speak out tonight.
Since “The Three Evils” was released in early October last year, Qian Renhao posted on Facebook that the film is almost exactly the same as the synopsis of “Lawless” that he has been preparing for many years, and even the characters, storyline, and protagonist’s name are similar. , although the director of “The Three Evils” at the time, Huang Jingfu, quickly posted an article on the film’s official Facebook, describing the process of creating the film. The two main actors, Ethan Ruan and Wang Jing, also forwarded the article to express their support. The production company “One “Attitude Film Co., Ltd.” also specifically stated that it will no longer respond to any rumors, insinuations, insinuations, etc. that affect the work and original intention of the production of “Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils”. All cases will be handled through judicial channels.
However, there is evidence for Qian Renhao’s bold words. He insisted on the film’s creative team and said, “Please just dare to say simply, ‘We guarantee that Zhou Chu is original.'” After six months of accusations, Qian Renhao has not yet been released. If you file an infringement lawsuit, you will only file a request for leave and seizure.
Until a few days ago, senior Hong Kong film and television seniors Chen Hing-ka and Chan Ka-shang also endorsed on Facebook and published a long article stating that the source of the creativity was the script written by director Huang Jingfu, which was later filmed with the joint efforts of the creative team and the crew. “The movie script and film are closely related to Mr. Qian Renhao It has nothing to do with it. There is no evidence as to whether Mr. Qian Renhao has completed the relevant script; in fact, director Huang Jingfu and the crew have never had access to the text or story information, let alone plagiarism.”
Today, the film studio commissioned a lawyer to issue a three-point statement, emphasizing that the script has nothing to do with Qian Renhao, and there is no evidence to prove plagiarism so far. He calls on the other party to stop spreading rumors, otherwise he will be held accountable according to law.
The full text is as follows:
Commissioned by the parties involved, One Attitude Film Co., Ltd., producer Li Lie, and director Huang Jingfu, hereby issue the following statement:
1. Regarding Mr. Qian Renhao’s accusation that the movie “Zhou Chu Destroyed Three Evils” is suspected of plagiarism, it is obviously a false accusation! The original creative idea of the movie “Away with Three Evils” originated from the kind offer and promise of the adaptation by Hong Kong film and television veterans Chen Hing-ka and Chan Ka-shang. Director Huang Jingfu wrote the script, and with the cooperation of the main creative team and the crew, the filming and production was completed. It was released smoothly, and the movie script had nothing to do with Mr. Qian Renhao, who was anti-film. There is no evidence as to whether Mr. Qian Renhao has completed the relevant script; director Huang Jingfu and the crew have never had access to the text or story information, let alone plagiarism.
2. Mr. Qian Renhao has repeatedly claimed that he will file a lawsuit with the court to defend the rights and interests of his works. However, after lawyers recently inquired with the Taipei District Court and the Taipei District Prosecutor’s Office, Mr. Qian Renhao has not filed a lawsuit against him for nearly six months. Filed a lawsuit for alleged “plagiarism”. By merely relying on the false seizure procedure, he claimed to the outside world that the court had given him justice by passing the false seizure. However, the false seizure procedure is only a preservation procedure in law. The judge has not held a court hearing and investigation, and has not made a substantive judgment. It is impossible to clarify the facts and prove his “rights and interests” through the false seizure ruling.

3. Please kindly ask Mr. Qian Renhao to stop spreading rumors and criticizing the company and damaging the reputation of the production company and the creative team of “The Three Evils”. If you continue to ignore the rule of law, deliberately publish false news, create confusion, and commit infringement and defamation, you will be held accountable in accordance with the law.
