Chapter 296

Hide the tree in the forest?

Hearing this claim, as a girlfriend, Tian Mingguang looked over curiously, "What does this mean?"

Yin Ju Jian replied: "Did you see the last line? This serial case might be a copycat murder!"

Seeing his girlfriend puzzled about the meaning of this word, he further explained.

"When others learn the details of this murder incident, for their own desires or interests, they can imitate the previous murder details to kill.

So in this movie, you see the police have been chasing various suspects, that's because the murderer is very likely not just one!"

Tian Mingguang heard this explanation and associated it with the victim scene in the movie screen, subconsciously feeling a bit creepy.

And Yin Ju Jian seemed not to have noticed his girlfriend's fear and continued.

"The murderer of the first case is very likely the father of that mentally disabled suspect, because he claimed that he wanted to kill all the women who had mocked him, and his spirit is also very abnormal."

"The murderer of the second case might be that outsider, because he just came to the village and such a case happened."

"The murderer of the third case is very likely that policeman from Tokyo..."

Listening to his boyfriend's increasingly detailed analysis, Tian Mingguang hurriedly patted his arm: "So scary, don't say it."

Yin Ju Jian then reacted and hurriedly apologized.

Tian Mingguang hesitated and said: "Come to my house to stay tonight, I'm a bit scared."

Although the two are dating, they actually haven't reached this step yet.

However, she was still very scared and decided to let her boyfriend accompany her for a night.

Yin Ju Jian was a bit stunned; this was different from what he thought.

According to his guess, it should be that after he analyzed the plot in detail, his girlfriend would look at him with admiring eyes!

However, this result seems better, right?

He didn't hesitate and said seriously: "Guangzhi, don't worry, I won't do anything tonight."

"Really." His girlfriend was a bit suspicious.

But she thought about it and said shyly: "It doesn't matter if you do anything..."

The two were showing off their love in their seats, while film critic Wudai Liming, who was sitting in the back row, showed an admiring expression.

Before the movie started, he thought this movie would likely disappoint him.

First of all, the script came from Akiwara Yuto.

The other party is indeed very famous as a detective writer.

But detective fiction and movies are two different fields, and the only work the other party filmed into a movie was "ZOO," and the box office performance was also very average.

Not to mention that this movie was a script he took out newly, and there was not much fan accumulation.

Besides that, the "hardware" of this movie was also very average.

As a director, Utsumi Takuto is completely a third-tier director, and what he filmed before were all R18 violent themes.

That male lead as the protagonist was even less heard of; he only learned after inquiring that the other party had been filming TV dramas.

For such a movie, he naturally couldn't have any expectations.

He even came here today planning to write an article to mock him well!

However, after watching it, Wudai Liming's thoughts were completely reversed.

The first case at the beginning quickly grabbed his heart, making him follow the rhythm involuntarily.

And the heavy investigation of the criminal suspect made him immersed in the plot, even forgetting his idea of wanting to score.

This proved one point without a doubt, that is, whether it is the director or the actors, the level is above a certain standard.

By his standards, it can already be considered excellent!

But what made him admire the most was this script which is said to be based on a realistic theme.

Because he couldn't add trouble to the farmers' autumn harvest, the rice field as the crime scene was crushed by a tractor, causing the police to lose many opportunities to collect evidence.

And due to the backward interrogation conditions and the poor professional quality of the town patrol, the local police's reliance on confessions was increased.

The policeman at the beginning always wanted to get a confession by illegal questioning methods when solving the case.

And after failing to find the real murderer for a long time, the police officer from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department had a mental breakdown and even wanted to shoot and kill a suspect.

Such a theme is really rare on the market.

He kept thinking wildly until the people in the screening hall were all gone, and he was still considering how to write the film review.

When he was "urged" to leave by the waiter with a smile, he sighed.

The draft he prepared couldn't be used, so he better write a film review properly!

It seems he still underestimated Akiwara Yuto!

The next morning, the conference room of Dongying Film.

Regarding the box office of Akiwara Yuto's movie, the management of Dongying Film specially held a meeting.

"How much can the box office of this movie be?"

The man in the suit sitting in the main seat asked.

He is the president of Dongying Film and is very concerned about how much box office revenue this movie has.

In his view, as long as the box office of this movie is unsatisfactory, then they can find a reason to obtain the copyright of his other works on the premise of refusing Akiwara Yuto's box office share.

"Currently, in the most ideal state, it may only be about 200 million."

A middle-aged man stood up and replied: "Currently, the number of screens they are showing is only more than 20, the number is very small."

"Isn't that a huge loss?"

Someone laughed.

Generally speaking, the box office of a movie must be more than 3 times the investment amount for the investor to recover the cost; after all, a considerable amount of expenditure has to be handed over to the theater chain and other aspects.

And the previous movies of Dongying Film basically had between 100 and 200 screens.

In terms of scale, they really don't look down on this work of Akiwara Yuto.

"Have any of you colleagues gone to watch this movie?"

Just at this moment, a calm female voice rang out.

Everyone heard this and looked at each other, and the woman who just spoke also stood up.

"I specially went to watch this movie with a friend yesterday, and I think it is very wonderful and cannot be underestimated."

In fact, after she finished watching this movie in the cinema yesterday, it was hard to forget in her heart.

Until now, she still occasionally thinks of that look in the last scene!

That look seemed to be saying that he himself is the murderer!

It seemed that no one expected someone to agree, and for a time, everyone in the conference room showed a surprised expression.

The person who spoke is the section chief of the statistics section of Dongying Film, and she can often predict many movie box offices very accurately.

Could it be that Akiwara Yuto's movie can still be a bestseller?

Thinking of this, everyone's expressions became unnatural...
