Chapter 726: Lighthouse
"Yes, that's how it ends," on the plane, Wu Xiumin told Zhao Yu the synopsis of "No One Survives", "In the end, there is no one left in 10 people......! All of this was planned by the Lord Chancellor, who tried them by what he thought was justice!"
"Oh......" Zhao Yu nodded, "This story is quite interesting, but I thought that the judge must have an accomplice! An old man wants to kill so many people, and he has to kill people according to nursery rhymes, and the killing methods and order must be followed, which is not easy!"
"The sin is in the hearts of the people!" Wu Xiumin said, "In fact, the most powerful thing about Agatha Christie's work is that it captures the sin in the depths of people's hearts, those people have been exposed because of their crimes, and their mentality has long changed, and they are suspicious of each other, which will be taken advantage of by the judge!"
"Well, it makes sense, although it is, but it's really impressive!" Zhao Yu sighed, "I hope our case is not "No One Survives", right?"
"No, it's not that there are no survivors, there are survivors......" At this time, Zeng Ke suddenly took his mobile phone and said to Zhao Yu and the others, "I received information from Officer Chen, this is the latest situation of the case, there are survivors!"
"I'm ......" Zhao Yu couldn't help but complain, "This is on the plane, how did you get the news?"
"Just kidding, if I can't even do this, how can I still have the face to follow the team leader?" Zeng Ke curled the corners of his mouth proudly, and then pointed to the screen of his mobile phone and said, "At present, the police have found three survivors on Yongjin Island, but ...... One of them is very seriously injured and is being resuscitated in the hospital, I don't know, can he still be saved?
"There are also two survivors, a woman and a man, the woman is an actor in the crew, and the man claims to be a life producer, but he is actually a cook!" Zeng Ke said, "The Quliang Criminal Investigation Brigade was the first to arrive at the scene after receiving the alarm, and they felt that the matter was too big, so they reported it level by level, and finally reported to the Criminal Department, which sent us over."
"It is said that the two survivors did not suffer much trauma other than severe mental damage. But...... According to the information, although she was a survivor, the woman was put around her neck with hemp rope and placed on a folding stool, and she was almost hanged!
"What happened to the cook was even more bizarre, he was tied up and buried alive in the earth, leaving only his face gasping for breath......
"In view of the fright suffered by these two people, the local police have sent a large boat to the ship, temporarily placed these two people on the boat, and sent a psychiatrist to guide them while asking about the specific circumstances of the case......
"Zeng Ke, can you talk about something critical first?" Wu Xiumin complained, "How many people died?"
"At the moment...... It has been confirmed that 6 people have died!" Zeng Ke lowered his voice and said to Zhao Yu and the others with a miserable face, "These people died in different ways, and they were scattered all over the island, so the police are still searching the whole island, and the final death toll is still uncertain!"
"God, six people! are all making movies, who will brutally kill them?" Wu Xiumin exclaimed, "You say, could this be an internal strife? They themselves have contradictions?"
"Come, I'll take a look......" Zhao Yu took Zeng Ke's mobile phone and carefully read the information sent by Chen Zhuo.
It turned out that the crew that had the accident was an independent film team under Champion Pictures.
The so-called independent film crew is a semi-private unit, they have their own complete creative and shooting team, but because of funding and distribution restrictions, they have to be affiliated with large companies.
Generally, before the shooting, they will submit the shooting plan to the big company, and if the company agrees, they will give them some assistance. After the film is made and released, they will take a high commission from the copyright income.
The so-called Champion Pictures itself is not a well-known large company in the industry, and their film crews are naturally some third-rate or not mainstream film crews at all. These film crews can only shoot low-budget, small-budget digital films, short films, documentaries, etc......
The crew that had an accident on Yongjin Island is a team of this nature.
In fact, crews like them basically belong to the bottom of the film and television industry, that is, they just eat with their mouths. The purpose of their films is just to get the money in the hands of investors.
For example, a small movie with a production cost of only 500,000 yuan, they will generally make a budget of 1 million or even 2 million yuan to seek investment!
Of course, investors are not stupid, and it is impossible to come over stupidly every time to throw money. Therefore, this has given birth to a lot of dark businesses, in order to attract sponsorship and investment, the crew or company will use countless means to do everything.
For example, the crew that had an accident, their funds were obtained entirely through the personal relationship of actor Xie Hao from a local tyrant female boss who did not know how to do it! It is precisely because of this that Xie Hao naturally became the undisputed male number one in the crew!
But it's a pity that this male number one was also killed in this isolated island killing!
According to the information in Zhao Yu's hands, the reason why this film crew wanted to film on Yongjin Island was because Yongjin Island was related to their script.
This time, they are filming a digital film called "The Lighthouse", and the whole story revolves around the island and the lighthouse.
The reason why the film crew chose Yongjin Island as the filming base is also because Yongjin Island does have a lighthouse, and in the seventies and eighties of the last century, that lighthouse has always played an important role in guiding the direction of local ships.
It is reported that the police have contacted the person in charge of Champion Pictures, and the person in charge claimed that a total of 17 members of the crew participated in the filming!
However, because the filming location is far from the land, these people may not all stay on the island. Now, they are actively contacting these people, and it is expected that they will get definite information soon.
In addition, according to the plan of the crew of "Lighthouse", their entire pre-shooting will take a whole month, and the crew will shoot on the island for about half a month, and it was almost finished yesterday!
Oh my God...... 17 people!?
After seeing this astonishing number, Zhao Yu instinctively felt a sense of nervousness, and felt more and more that this case was not trivial!
A good filming crew, such a big thing happened when it was about to be completed, on that island far from land, what happened!?
