Chapter 266: Director Ma

The release information in the lower right corner of the back of the cover of the movie disc shows that the film was produced and distributed by Wan Jiahe Film Co., Ltd. in 1989.

Ning Xue sighed: "In 1989, that was 29 years ago! I didn't expect this tape to be older than you and me. ”

Wang Yu immediately picked up his laptop and entered the three keywords "Wan Jiahe" in the search bar of the browser, and the links that popped up were all related entries of Hong Kong Golden Harvest Film Company.

In the decade of the last century, it was the most glorious era of Hong Kong films, and Golden Harvest Company was half of the Hong Kong film industry. Therefore, in the mainland, there are many low-cost small studio film and television companies, fraudulently using the names of Hong Kong's big film and television enterprises.

Wang Yu is basically sure that this "Wan Jiahe" is such a Li ghost.

Since he can't even find the production and distribution company, Wang Yu doesn't have much hope for the director and starring on the cover of the disc. After he typed in the names, he didn't find any information.

Ning Xue said: "I'll let Xiao Sun check." ”

The internal system is extraordinary, and at noon, Xiao Sun fed back a few important pieces of information.

In Jingyang's industrial and commercial system, there is indeed a company called Wan Jiahe, which was registered in 1985 and cancelled in 1990. The legal person of the company is the director of the movie "Midnight Terror", Ma Wenhao.

However, the registration information of this company is a cultural service company, that is to say, in fact, Wan Jiahe does not have the qualifications for film shooting, production and distribution, and the movie "Midnight Terror" has no record, no quasi-shot number, no distribution number, and is a standard three-no movie.

And what is even more coincidental is that Ma Wenhao is a 52-year-old native of Jingyang, and his files show that this person has worked abroad for five years before founding Wan Jiahe Cultural Services Company in 1985.

As for the leading actors and others shown on the cover of the movie, there is no match in the public security system, perhaps because of the use of stage names.

Ning Xue asked, "Then is Ma Wenhao still in Jingyang now?" ”

Xiao Sun on the phone replied: "Well, he is now running a kindergarten, which is semi-public welfare, and mainly accepts the children of migrant workers in Jingyang." ”

Ning Xue said: "You send the specific address, I'm going to visit him." ”

After getting the address of the kindergarten, Ning Xue immediately drove to it with Wang Yu.

The kindergarten is located on the outskirts of the city, in a market near an industrial park. Coming here from the bustling city center, it is like coming to a third-tier urban-rural junction all of a sudden.

The exterior of the kindergarten is very shabby, and through the large iron gate, you can see that there are many children playing on the playground, which is only half the size of a basketball court. The children of these famous peasant workers, dressed in dirty coats, with runny noses, black mud in their hands, and happy smiles on their faces.

Ning Xue walked to the small window of the guard's room, and there was an elderly man sitting inside, covered with a big cotton jacket, roasting charcoals, holding his mobile phone, and watching "Soldier Assault" happily.

"Hello old man, I want to find a horse director."

"Big girl, are you?"

"I'm a police officer."

Ning Xue showed her police officer ID.

The old man didn't know if he was illiterate, anyway, when he saw the half-length photo of Ning Xue wearing a police uniform on the police officer's card, his eyes were suddenly full of reverence.

He immediately picked up his crutches, came out of the house, and opened the door for the two men outside.

It was only at this time that Ning Xue and Wang Yu found out that the old man turned out to be a disabled person, and he was missing a right foot.

Because of Ning Xue's identity, she and Wang Yu easily entered this kindergarten.

They then found out that it was not only the janitor who was disabled, but almost all the staff at the kindergarten were physically disabled to a greater or lesser extent.

For example, the two kindergarten teachers who were playing with the children looked to be in their forties, one without a left ear, and the other with two fingers missing from his right hand. And the cook, who was drying dried radishes in the corner, was blind in one eye......

The two came to the principal's room and met the director Ma Wenhao.

This man, who is only 52 years old this year, looks like he is 72 years old. His hair was gray, his face was wrinkled, his eyes were cloudy, and he sat in a wheelchair, and with trembling hands, he cut out small red flowers on red paper.

Looking at his appearance, Wang Yu suddenly felt very sad, he suddenly realized that everyone in the world will have the day when they will grow old, when this day comes, what will he be like?

Ning Xue stood at the door, raised her hand and knocked lightly.

Ma Wenhao realized that someone was coming, he stopped what he was doing, slowly raised his head, glanced at Ning Xue, and then at Wang Yu behind Ning Xue.

When he looked at Ning Xue, his expression was only a little puzzled, but when he saw Wang Yu, a surprised light suddenly flashed in his cloudy pupils.

"Who are the two?"

"I am a police officer from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Criminal Police Brigade of the Jingyang Public Security Bureau." Ning Xue showed her ID again, "Director Ma, we want to know something about this movie disc from you." ”

When he heard the words "Director Ma", Ma Wenhao was very shocked, he couldn't remember how long it had been, and no one had ever called himself that way anymore.

And when he saw Ning Xue take out the disc "Midnight Terror", his face suddenly changed greatly, and he trembled and asked, "You guys...... Where did you get that?! ”

Ning Xue said: "It was three high school students who rented it from a video rental shop. ”

Ma Wenhao shook his head excitedly and said, "No! It's absolutely impossible! How could all the discs of this film, which I personally destroyed before the twenty-nineth, be circulated in the market? ”

Wang Yu walked into the house and asked, "Director Ma, do you mean that the video disc of the movie "Midnight Terror" is not on sale?" ”

Ma Wenhao said with certainty: "That's right! The first batch of 8,000 CDs, one of which was quite a lot, was burned by me after I personally counted them, and it was impossible for them to reach the market! ”

Ning Xue asked suspiciously: "Director Ma, why did you destroy these discs before they went on the market?" ”

Ma Wenhao suddenly stopped talking, his gaze consciously avoiding Ning Xue.

Wang Yu said: "Director Ma, let me tell you, what we found in this disc...... There's something unclean in it. ”

Ma Wenhao's face was stunned, and he shook his hand and said, "Don't say it again, don't ask again, hurry up and go back and destroy this disc, I don't know anything." ”

Ning Xue said: "I'm afraid we can't do this, because of the three students who rented this disc, two are missing, and one is crazy." You, as the person who made this film and the disc twenty years ago, have to give us the police an explanation. ”

"Hey!" Ma Wenhao sighed and said, "If you don't want anyone to have an accident, hurry up and destroy this disc." ”

Wang Yu begged: "Director Ma, please tell us what secrets there are about this movie." ”

Ma Wenhao looked at Wang Yu and pondered for a long time before he said: "You have seen the teachers and staff in this kindergarten, they followed me more than 30 years ago, and at that time, I was still making movies. You must think it's pitiful for them to have a physical disability? In fact, they were lucky, because at least they survived, and the other part of them, after filming that movie, died one after another. ”

Wang Yu and Ning Xue were very surprised, it turned out that those people outside were all employees of Wan Jiahe before, and they were also more curious, what terrible things happened after the filming of the movie "Midnight Terror" was completed, and why all the employees of Wan Jiahe were either dead or disabled......

Ma Wenhao continued: "Do you really know the story of wanting to be back then? I'm afraid this will bring you bad luck! Maybe we'll end up like our guys. ”

Wang Yu was hesitating, he wasn't afraid of himself, he was worried about Ning Xue...... But Ning Xue resolutely said: "Director Ma, we don't care, please tell us, what happened when you were filming this movie?" ”
