1. Zhang and Liao have similar musical styles. This style of music is relatively rare in China, and it can even be said that there are only a handful, so the audience will feel that the two songs are similar when they are heard-in fact, it is because there are too few similar songs in the Chinese music scene.
2. Zhang's songs are indeed borrowed from Liao's songs, but it is difficult to define them as plagiarism. Other answers have detailed explanations.
3. I don't think we should "explode" Zhang in this matter for a simple reason:
Zhang is still in the early stage of his musical career, and it is difficult to form his own unique style during this period. Therefore, it is normal to learn from others and imitate others. Many famous singers have traces of imitating others in their early music (imitation is not plagiarism, of course, but worrying about X and simply being blessed by X is obvious plagiarism). What matters is whether they will have their own style in the future.
4. Some netizens found that Zhang is a fan of Liao, so it is normal for Liao to influence Zhang imperceptibly, which can also explain why Zhang's lyrics have many intentions similar to Liao's songs.
The same intention is actually not a problem. At that time, many people imitated Jay Chou and wrote many lyrics similar to those of Jay Chou. Even many people have imitated Vae. For example, Jiang Jiang's "Falling Flowers and Rain", many lyrics are borrowed from Vae's "Between Mountains and Rivers".
