Chapter 3323 Winter Goes, Spring Comes: Death Penalty?!
The purse snatcher was dumbfounded when he heard the brand name Wang Yue mentioned!
As a seasoned purse snatcher, he was quite knowledgeable about the prices of certain brands!
He never expected to snatch such an expensive bag one day, and to be caught red-handed, which made his legs go weak!
Xu Shengli sensed that the purse snatcher was clearly frightened, which is why he said in an annoyed tone,
"You can't make money doing any kind of work, so you just rely on petty theft to take advantage of others!"
People like you deserve a good beating from the police!
Zhuangzhuang also joined in criticizing the bag snatcher who almost ruined her life, and the three of them quickly arrived at the police station!
After ascertaining the situation, a policeman surnamed An spoke to the purse snatcher with a serious expression.
"Kid, you're in trouble. Just then, the higher-ups issued an order to crack down hard on any criminal activity!"
Your act of snatching the bag constitutes robbery and will now be prosecuted as robbery!
"And your robbery involved 5000 yuan, which is enough to warrant the death penalty!"
"death penalty?!"
Zhuang Zhuang and Xu Shengli fell silent, recalling the anti-crime operation 10 years ago!
Although some people were innocent, it did greatly prevent more crimes from happening!
Wang Yue was filled with questions!
In his mind, a three-year sentence was considered a severe punishment for a purse snatcher like him! He never expected it to turn into a death sentence!
Wang Yue glanced at the purse snatcher with some pity and said, "If you want to live, you'd better confess about your accomplices and your boss!"
Otherwise, this time next year, you'll have to ask your parents to burn some paper money for you!
The purse snatcher was really scared. He had been instilled with the idea by his boss that he would only be locked up for a few days at most for stealing such a small amount of stuff!
Even if they are detained for a long time, their families and brothers will help take care of them!
But now it's a matter of life and death, the bag snatcher has decisively sold out his older brother and his brothers!
……
Wang Yuezhuang and Xu Shengli were both in high spirits after helping the police crack down on a group of bag snatchers active at the train station!
After leaving the police station, Zhuangzhuang felt she couldn't wait any longer. She said enthusiastically, "Does anyone here know this place well? I have to treat you to a meal!"
Xu Shengli quickly said, "My luggage is in a shuttle bus belonging to an inn. Do you have a place to settle in? How about we eat after we've settled in?"
Wang Yue didn't answer Xu Shengli, but instead looked at Zhuang Zhuang, "Beautiful lady, what do you say?"
Wang Yue actually wanted to see if Zhuang Zhuang had any wariness based on her answer.
After all, human traffickers were very rampant at that time. It was extremely dangerous for a beautiful woman like Zhuangzhuang to go out with a stranger!
If Zhuangzhuang were an inexperienced girl, Wang Yue felt he should act quickly, otherwise she might be snatched away by someone else!
Of course, when Wang Yue thought of this other person, his gaze fell on Xu Shengli!
Zhuangzhuang, however, had no doubt that she would be kidnapped; on the contrary, she happily said,
"Really? That's great! I was just wondering where to stay."
Let's go take a look together. If it's suitable, I'll stay there too!
After the three of them discussed it, they went with Xu Shengli to find his luggage.
Upon seeing the van with the words "Winter Snow, Spring Comes" on it in the distance, Wang Yue couldn't help but smile and say...
"What a coincidence! I used to stay at this hotel!"
Xu Shengli asked in surprise, "Really? What a coincidence!" Zhuangzhuang immediately asked what she really wanted to know, "How's the accommodation there? Is it convenient?"
Wang Yue recalled the people living in the alley and said with a smile, "Besides the locals, the people in the alley are all artists who came here looking for opportunities!"
Living here is convenient because it's close to the Forbidden City and the film studio, making it easy to find a job!
Upon hearing this, Zhuangzhuang immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Alright then, I'll stay there too. I'll be counting on you to take care of me from now on!"
Xu Shengli immediately replied, "No problem, no problem, let's all look after each other!"
The three of them approached the car as they talked. Xiao Dongbei, seeing them from afar, asked in surprise,
"Wang Yue, what are you doing here with this person! I was just looking for him!"
"We just happened to run into each other!"
Wang Yue gave a casual reply and then got into the car with Xu Shengli and Zhuangzhuang!
Through conversations along the way, Wang Yue roughly understood why Zhuangzhuang and Xu Shengli had come to Beijing!
Zhuangzhuang wants to audition for a song and dance troupe to fulfill her dream of singing!
Xu Shengli does indeed want to be a good screenwriter so that his scripts can be made into television series or movies!
Zhuangzhuang and the others shared their dreams, and couldn't help but jokingly say,
"Xu Shengli, your dream and Wang Yue's dream are quite compatible!"
"With one of you being the screenwriter and the other the director, you could totally organize a whole film crew on your own!"
Wang Yue shrugged and said, "Now all that's left are investors. Zhuangzhuang, seeing that you brought so much money with you, why don't you become one of our investors?"
"I?"
Zhuangzhuang panicked and quickly waved her hand, saying, "I can afford to give you a few thousand yuan, but making a movie requires hundreds of millions! I really can't afford that!"
Xu Shengli thought Wang Yue was teasing Zhuangzhuang, and immediately reminded him,
"Wang Yue, you must be joking! Didn't you see that Zhuangzhuang is already taking it seriously?"
"Xu Shengli, who says making movies requires a lot of money? Poor people have their own way of making movies!"
Zhuangzhuang became interested and asked curiously, "How should poor people be photographed?"
Wang Yue shook his head and said seriously, "Of course, the actors don't get paid but get a share of the profits, and the filming equipment is rented directly. That way, the only expense is the film!"
However, the film I use for shooting movies is quite expensive. A roll probably costs between five hundred and a thousand dollars. Even if I make no mistakes, it's only 10 minutes long!
A typical movie is 90 to 120 minutes long, and if you watch it in one take, it will cost around 10,000 yuan!
Considering that various errors are inevitable during filming, the actual filming time will be several times, or even dozens of times, longer than the film's release time!
Therefore, the cost of making a movie ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands!
So, if we want to film, all we need to do is take the script and find someone to invest 300,000 yuan, and we can barely manage to film it!
Of course, if Zhuangzhuang has 30, we can film it directly!
Zhuangzhuang isn't stupid. Making movies can be profitable or not. Even if her family could borrow 300,000 yuan, she couldn't possibly throw it all away like this.
She quickly shook her head and said, "I can try to borrow 1, but 30 is really impossible!"
