The group arrived at the hotel where the film crew was staying.
Shimizu Grand Hotel.
This is one of the best hotels in the entire Qingshui District.
It is located right next to Qingshui Film and Television City.
Over the years, Qingshui Film and Television City has developed into a super-large ancient building complex covering more than 30,000 acres. It has also been rated as a national 4A-level scenic spot. It ranks second only to the top film and television cities in China and is also a calling card for Hua'an's development and promotion.
Everyone got out of the car and went to the hotel reception.
After showing their identification, the front desk manager immediately greeted Liu Keming and the others, and told them the address of the film crew, and would lead them upstairs.
Liu Keming and the others followed them upstairs.
When we arrived at the top floor.
The police officers on duty at the elevator entrance greeted Zhou Huai and the others.
"Captain Zhou! Captain Wang!"
Zhou Huaichong and the other man nodded, and then introduced, "This is Captain Liu from the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Major Crimes Unit, and this is Captain Wang from the Third Squad. From today onwards, we will work together to investigate this case. How about it? Is there anything unusual at the scene?"
The two police officers who remained on duty shook their heads and said, "Nothing unusual! Except for meals, these film crew members basically don't leave the building."
Zhou Huai nodded and said, "Okay, you guys continue your duty. Call us if there are any problems." He then led everyone to director Wang Sanshi's room.
On the road.
Zhou Huai cautioned, "People in the arts tend to have rather unique personalities, especially big-name directors. We've talked to Director Wang about a case before, but he wasn't very willing to cooperate. Be prepared for that."
Everyone nodded.
A moment later.
The group arrived at the door.
Knock knock knock!
Zhou Huai knocked on the other party's door.
Footsteps approached, and it seemed someone was behind the door trying to identify who it was. Once they confirmed that the person was a member of the criminal investigation team, they unchained the door and it creaked open.
"Captain Zhou? What brings you here?"
The people who came out were all familiar faces.
Xiao Qing, Wang Sanshi's assistant, is a woman who looks to be in her twenties and is dressed rather glamorously.
Zhou Huai looked at the other person and asked, "Hello! Is Director Wang here? We're here to ask some questions and hope he can cooperate."
The assistant seemed somewhat reluctant, saying, "Didn't we already ask last time?"
Zhou Huai briefly explained, "This case has entered a new stage of development, and we need to take another statement."
The assistant said, "I'll ask around for you, but I can't say for sure if it will work out."
Zhou Huai thanked them twice, watched them leave, and then turned to Liu Keming and Guan Feng, saying, "There's nothing we can do! They're big directors, so we have to be polite. This case is difficult to handle, partly because of that."
Liu Keming patted Zhou Huai on the shoulder and said, "Old Zhou, you weren't like this before. I remember when we were handling a case, there was a celebrity who wasn't cooperating. You turned around and brought him back to the station. Later, the celebrity complained and called the director's cell phone directly, but you ignored it and continued the interrogation. That made us all look at you in a new light."
Zhou Huai said irritably, "Old Liu, how dare you make fun of me? Since you were promoted to captain of the serious crimes team, have you had a good night's sleep? Here, I'll give you the lead this time, why don't you give it a shot?"
Liu Keming rubbed his thinning hair and said with a smile, "The higher the position, the more concerns one has. Sometimes I miss the adventurous spirit of my youth. Speaking of which, Xiao Guan, the donation from the 'Flower Thousand Tears' crew last time, was that your doing?"
Guan Feng said, "The main problem was that the lead actor at the time really acted dishonestly. I was robbing the rich to help the poor."
Liu Keming laughed heartily.
Zhou Huai took advantage of this break to inquire about the situation.
Liu Keming briefly explained what happened.
Zhou Huai said in surprise, "No wonder our Qingshui branch allocated 1 million yuan last time to purchase several new cars. It turns out it was Xiao Guan who did this."
Guan Feng said, "It was a coincidence."
At this moment.
The assistant's footsteps returned, and he looked at Zhou Huai and asked, "The director said he has time, but he hasn't been in a good mood these past two days. Could you please have fewer people come in, ask your questions as quickly as possible, and leave as soon as you're done?"
Zhou Huai said, "No problem!"
He then looked at Liu Keming and Guan Feng and said, "Then let's have three people: you, me, and Xiao Guan."
Liu Keming said, "That's exactly what I was thinking!"
He ordered Liu Shengguo and others to guard the door.
The three of them entered the room.
This is a presidential suite.
The entrance leads directly to the bathroom and shower room.
If you walk further ahead through the connecting corridor, you'll find a living room.
Wang Sanshi was writing wild cursive script with great effort at the desk in the living room.
Guan Feng leaned closer and glanced at it, then looked somewhat surprised.
I didn't expect Wang Sanshi's cursive script to be so powerful, already possessing three-tenths of the essence of Mr. Chen's style.
When Wang Sanshi finished writing the last "far" character in "tranquility leads to far-reaching influence" and put down his pen, Guan Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "I've only ever seen Director Wang's movies before, I never imagined he could write so beautifully!"
Wang Sanshi glanced at Guan Feng with a hint of doubt in his eyes and asked, "You have expertise in calligraphy?"
Guan Feng nodded and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Director Wang's calligraphy was learned from Master Chen?"
Wang Sanshi's surprise deepened, and at the same time, his suspicion of Guan Feng's attempt to get close to him dissipated. He asked, "You really know calligraphy?"
Guan Feng said, "Old Chen's cursive script is skillful in its brushwork, sharp and decisive, like a red cliff and a deep ravine. The brushstrokes are strong and vigorous. From the perspective of each individual character, it may not be so elegant, but when you look at the whole piece, it is like a surging river with a powerful momentum, which makes people remember it after seeing it once."
Upon hearing this, Wang Sanshi had no more doubts.
If one is not an expert, how could one possibly describe the characteristics of Mr. Chen's calligraphy in just a few words?
