In her defense, Peng wrote on her micro blog that Wang should "feel honored that his pictures were used" and should not narrow his outlook like "many other conservative and nearsighted paint designers."
Her words immediately invited a backlash.
Peng later deleted the statement and apologized to Wang on the micro blog.
She said on Sunday evening the infringement was caused by insufficient communication in the production group for the concert and was not Hunan Satellite TV's responsibility, adding that her team will compensate Wang.
An insider at Hunan Satellite TV, who did not want to be identified, said the backdrop design for the New Year's concert was based on a contract between the TV station and Peng's group.
"The infringement is just between Peng and Wang, not Hunan Satellite TV, because we only provide a stage to show Peng's design," the insider said.
"Our workers in charge of the concert's coordination might not supervise the group's work carefully. So if the case involves our station, we'll definitely shoulder the responsibility."
Liu Yinliang, a legal expert specializing in intellectual property rights at Peking University, said such infringement cases are prevalent in China because most people have no awareness of protecting intellectual property rights.
