Months after 2016 GIT World’s Jewelry Design Awards Ceremony, I accidentally came across an article being reposted among some jewelry-related information websites in China that caught my attention. The article tells the story of GIT 2016 contest with a brief background and the finals list presented with photos and design drafts. While all awards recipients are introduced with English names as GIT officially published, my name alone is replaced with a Chinese name that was not even mine.
 
The caption under my design drawing writes as “第三名获奖者中国台湾设计师陈永杰及其作品Glory ofLotus.” (The second runner-up award recipient: jewelry designer Chen-Yong-Jay from China Taiwan and his design work Glory of Lotus.)  However, personal information was given in English to attend GIT contest, this name “陈永杰” really came out of no-where.
 
After a bit of research and cross-matching, it seems this name “陈永杰” belongs to one of the top-30s nominees who came from Mainland China. This name was spotted in another Chinese magazine article that mentions him being a nominee in the contest. I think it’s quite a dishonor for not being precise in such matter as media professions, especially some of them are even major information platform firms in China. Why didn’t they just use my English name if Chinese information was not available? Misleading a fact by replacing names is disrespectful and offensive to both artists. The purpose from the original writer of the article is currently unknown. I hope it was just a simple mistake of not verifying news resource, rather than a foul play with further intention.

The following sites are the sources where the article was found, and were all been contacted for a correction request.

The last three posts are all from one person. (S)he gave correction notice as comments under the article posted in WeChat only, but not correcting the main article itself from those addresses above.

距2016GIT世界珠寶設計大賽已過數月，近日無意間看到某篇文章在中國大陸數個網路平台轉載刊登，除了介紹該大賽背景，也列出最終得獎結果名單。在此文章中其他選手介紹皆以官方公布的英文名刊登，唯獨我一個被用了個中文名張冠李戴。
 
在我的照片和設計圖下方的文字敘述為：「第三名获奖者中国台湾设计师陈永杰及其作品Glory ofLotus」（應是Glory of Lotus）。泰國大賽的報名表單皆以英文為主，沒有要求提供中文姓名的訊息，因此這個「陈永杰」之訊息不知從何而來。
 
經初步查詢，誤植的姓名「陈永杰」應是該大賽登記來自中國大陸的設計師，剛好也是此次大賽的前30的入圍者之一。因為GIT官方公布的印刷文宣不會有中文資料，這個資訊是後來從另一篇中國的某網路文刊比對才知道該名參賽者進了大賽的入圍。我認為轉載文章的大陸平台不乏主要的珠寶消息網站，對於訊息的正確性應有其嚴格審查之要求。不知道中文名的訊息，為何不用英文顯示就好？亂套用姓名誤導事實，對於雙方創作者都很失禮，顯然這些中國媒體平台不夠尊重對自己的專業。不知一開始撰寫此文章的人是什麼原因決定這麼做，希望只是單純未查證的誤置，而不是有其他目的的手段。

目前已嘗試通知各文章的發布者更正資訊。

The result of The First China (International) Pearl Jewelry Design Competition has announced. We luckily received one Excellence Award for the design "Dream of Luna" pearl ring.

The moon rests in the starry night sky, like a pearl gently fall on royal blue velvet. They say stars are people's dreams that composed into lullaby for Luna.

參加首屆中國(國際)珍珠首飾設計大賽的結果已經出來了，這次作品＂月神之夢＂有幸獲得大賽的優秀獎！

月神之夢　珍珠戒指
明月靜眠於滿天星雲的夜幕，有如珍珠清落於藍色天鵝絨。星星是人們的夢想，集結成月神Ｌｕｎａ的晚安曲。
