Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

On the day Shanhe and Bruckheimer arrived in Amstetten, Austria, they met the police officer responsible for the case.

Arnold Gehringer is one of the most senior police officers in the Amstetten Police Department. He is the witness and person in charge of the entire "Fretzler Imprisonment Case."

Since receiving the notice from his boss, he has been very disgusted with this meeting and even resisted it a bit.

This case once attracted the attention of the entire Austria, but no one is willing to make it public again, because it is a source of pain for the entire Austria!

People don’t want to see or believe that human nature can be destroyed to that point!

He also left a scar that is difficult to heal!

Four years have passed since the incident, and Gehringer is still praying for Fletschler and the children, hoping that God can heal their hearts and forget the hurt of the past, although he knows that this may be difficult to achieve!

Now, Hua Xiaqiu wants to adapt this case into a novel and movie. This horrifying case will spread all over the world, which is difficult for Greene to accept.

Of course he knows Hua Xiaqiu, the most famous writer and director in the world. Each of his works has been welcomed by the global public, and there are many fans of his books and movies in Austria.

I believe he will still be a big success this time!

But this is bound to make this case of annihilation of humanity once again become a global hot spot, and it is bound to break the peaceful life that the Fletzler family finally achieved.

Arnold Gehringer faced two visitors in his office, feeling very complicated.

What changes will the arrival of Huaxiaqiu bring to the Fletschler family, for the better or for the worse?

Shan He saw the resistance of the fat middle-aged police officer in front of him at the first glance. He had some guesses about this and understood it very well.

"Officer Arnold, you don't have to worry that we will ruin Fletzler's life. I won't contact them head-on. I just want to see them from a distance and understand the whole case process personally. I know that for everyone, It’s hard to heal from this injury!”

Gehringer looked up at Shanhe and Bruckheimer, nodded and asked:

"What do you want to drink? I only have coffee and pure water here?"

"Thank you, just water!"

Gehringer poured a glass of water for the two guests, sat across from him in silence for a moment, and then began to tell the starting point of the case.

"Thirty years ago, I was a rookie who had just entered the police station. When Joseph, the devil, came to the police station to report a crime for the first time, I was the one who received him. He said that his daughter was missing. As a result, the next day, we I found her at the home of Fletschler’s classmate. Since then, this girl has often run away from home. I have brought her home again and again. When I think about this, I feel so remorseful that I twitch!”

When Gehringer said this, the emotion in his voice was still very obvious. He stopped and took a drink of water before continuing:

"Later, we learned that this was actually a plan planned by the devil. Fletschler was artificially shaped into a rebellious girl, but he became a good father who was kind and worried about his daughter. His performance was very successful. , we all believed it! In 1984, when Fletschler came of age, I received her missing report again. I thought I would find her soon, as before, but I didn’t expect that I would see her again. , but twenty-four years later, the moment I entered the basement, I was struck down by the facts before me. This is the biggest shame and guilt in my life. To be honest, I still want to kill that devil with one shot. He is not worthy. To become a human being, you should not stay in this world!”

Shanhe could feel the remorse and guilt of the police officer opposite him. This case was indeed too appalling.

And this is the purpose of Shanhe coming here in person. The occurrence of any event will have an impact on the surroundings, which cannot be felt just from the data.

"Officer Arnold, in the past twenty-four years, this devil has not shown any flaws. Do you not have any suspicion at all?"

Gehringer looked at the mountains and rivers, with bitterness on his face.

"He is a senior engineer, very smart, and plans everything very carefully. During the two years when Fletschler disappeared, my family would continue to receive letters and phone calls from her. It was not without flaws. I also had doubts, but I just had doubts about the girl's living conditions, and I went to his house several times to investigate and understand, but I never imagined that the girl would be imprisoned in the basement by her biological father. This was beyond my imagination. In the next few years, Fletschler The children were returned home one after another, and we completely closed the disappearance case, and were completely deceived by this devil's disguise. He took good care of several children and found suitable adopters for them. Family, for this reason, his reputation as a character is very good in this small town!”

Gehringer picked up the water glass again and took a swig of water.

“When Suzanne, Fritzler’s eldest daughter, escaped from the basement and fell on the roadside in front of his house and was taken to the hospital by a neighbor, the cruel fact was revealed to us, and the whole of Amstetten lost its voice. , this is the pain of the entire town. We have all been deceived and used by this devil, and we have even become his accomplices. This is the shame of the entire Amstetten. No one here wants to mention this matter again. We All ashamed of themselves!”

Shanhe once again felt Gehringer's strong anger and resistance. He didn't know what to say for a moment. He knew that he came here to uncover this terrible scar again.

Bruckheimer on the side saw this and spoke,

"Gringer, you can't make decisions for Fletschler, right? Qiu didn't come here to hurt them again, nor to condemn you. He didn't even think about disturbing the life of the Fletschler family, he just wanted to stay away from them. Look, escape is not the solution to the problem. What the Fletschler family needs is real help, not useless pity and guilt!”

Gehringer looked up at Bruckheimer, covered his forehead and lowered his head in silence for a while.

"Maybe you are right. I will tell Fletschler about your intention. As for whether she will agree to see you, I can't guarantee it!"

"Thank you, please tell her, I don't need her to recall or tell, I just want to watch their current life from a distance!"

"I'll tell them!"

…

After meeting police officer Arnold Gehringer, Shanhe and Bruckheimer settled in the small town.

The pace of life here is slow, the scenery is nice, and most importantly, there are no reporters.

Shanhe could go out on the street wearing a baseball cap and no one recognized him. He spent two days of freedom and comfort.

On the third day, the two had to return to Berlin. The day after tomorrow was the closing ceremony of the film festival. Shanhe and Bruckheimer couldn't miss the Berlin Film Festival's awards ceremony.

Shanhe had given up hope of meeting the Fletschler family.

That's it, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run!

Just as the two were packing their things and preparing to return to Berlin, a call came from Gehringer. As an unexpected surprise, the Fletschlers and their daughters were willing to meet Shanhe.

Soon after, Gehringer came to the hotel and drove the two of them toward the outskirts of Amstetten.

Not long after Shanhe and Bruckheimer got in the car, Gehringer asked directly:

"Qiu, after your novel is published, will the Fletschler family get some substantial rewards?"

Shanhe was just thinking about how to answer this question when Bruckheimer beside him said first:

"If necessary, we can pay part of the compensation now. I can guarantee you that Fritzler will get enough in return in the future. This is her reasonable and legal income!"

"Don't get me wrong, Fritzler and Susanna are not meeting you just for money!"

Gehringer explained to the two of them while driving:

"Fretzler is the greatest mother I have ever met, and Suzanne is an admirable girl. They have no urgent need for money, but they do need to think about Jenny and Rooney's future!"

"Jenny and Rooney are the other two children, right? How are they now?"

Gehringer nodded and replied solemnly:

"Jenny is not doing well. She has some mental retardation. Rooney is the healthiest and least injured of the three children. He is only nine years old now. He is a very cute child and does well in school. Flats Le and Suzanne protect him very well, Rooney is their best hope!"

Shanhe looked through the car window at the snow-covered mountains ahead, and responded softly:

"Officer Arnold, I understand what you mean. Trust me, they will not be harmed again because of this!"

"Protecting them is the responsibility of Amstetten as a whole, but they cannot live in protection all the time, especially Rooney!"

Gehringer's words caused silence in the car.

Yes, life will always go on, and children will always grow up. Blind protection and escape are like the basement of another soul, imprisoning them in disguise. They must face everything in the past by themselves in the future!

Life and destiny are so cruel and unfair!

Some people are born with fine clothes and fine food, and have no worries in their lives. Some people open their eyes and see hell. They experience unimaginable pain and have to endure the pain and move forward!

After the car drove in silence for about ten minutes, it stopped in front of a single-family wooden house. From a distance in the car, Shanhe saw two women in the yard tending the lawn.

As soon as he heard the sound of the car, one of the blond girls, probably Susanna, hurriedly turned around and brought the other girl sitting in front of the house into the house.

A lady with pale hair and wrinkled face was left alone in the courtyard to receive guests.

Shanhe met Fletschler, the protagonist of the case, for the first time. She was only forty-six years old, but she looked more than ten years older, and her suffering was clearly reflected in her appearance.

Facing the three visiting people, she looked calm, but the uneasiness and careful scrutiny in her eyes were very obvious.

Fletschler didn't invite them into the house, and he didn't have much enthusiasm for Gehringer. He simply greeted them and let them sit on the wooden chairs in the yard.

Then, he turned around and entered the house.

Gehringer explained to the two of them:

"Fretzler went to make us coffee, she's pretty good at it!"

Shanhe looked around. The yard was kept very clean. There was not a single fallen leaf or trace of snow. Everything was in order. Perhaps it was because of the winter season that there was a unique coldness and alienation around him.

He could even feel the eyes observing them in the room. This must be Susanna!

Shanhe has studied the case information more than once. This girl's courage and tenacity are admirable.

After living in the basement for seventeen years without any contact with the outside world, he escaped from the basement without fear and rescued his mother and younger siblings.

Most people can't imagine what it would be like to be born and raised in a basement of 17 square meters.

The environment determines the growth habits of animals. Take a pet as an example. If you let it be born and raised in a basement of 17 square meters, even if no one stops it, it will never have the idea or courage to come out, because in its In consciousness, that's all there is to it.

Humans are also animals, there is not much difference!

One can imagine how much protection and effort Fritzler, a mother, made for her children in the basement!

Shanhe couldn't help but show the greatest respect to this old-looking mother.

After a while, Fletschler walked out of the room carrying a tray. Her movements were a little slow, but she always kept a distance from the three of them.

Even when I put the tray with coffee on the table, I stood at the farthest distance.

"What do you need me to say?"

These were her first words, her voice was soft but calm with alienation and alertness.

Shanhe introduced himself in the softest voice:

"Hello, Ms. Fletschler, my name is Shanhe Qiu, and I am a writer!"

"I know, Suzanne likes the movies you make!"

"It's my pleasure!"

Shanhe carefully expressed his thoughts and intentions,

"Ms. Fletschler, I came to you to get your permission. Fate will always bring all kinds of suffering unfairly. We cannot resist it, but love in suffering is the most precious. I hope everyone understands These precious feelings and actions for them, especially your motherly love that touches everything!”

"I agree!"

Fletschler answered simply. It seemed that she had already discussed this matter with her daughter, but her expression and tone did not change, and she still asked the original question.

"What do you need me to say?"

"You don't need to say anything!"

Listening to Fletschler asking this harsh question twice in a row, Shanhe suddenly felt moved. For the sake of her child's future, this mother can reveal her scars in front of strangers at any time and let people watch her as much as she wants. The pain, a burst of apology also followed,

"I'm very sorry. I know my arrival will bring sadness to you and your family, but I also hope to bring you help, Ms. Fletschler. I just hope to watch your peaceful life from a distance. , there is no need for any dialogue or contact, and the time is not now, it may be a few months later, do you think this is okay?”

Even though Shanhe was full of sincerity, Fletschler never looked Shanhe in the eyes. She just thought about it for a moment and replied calmly:

"Can!"

Shanhe did not mention anything else. He could feel that this family was very repulsive to visitors and would not trust any strangers.

"Thank you. Let's take our leave now. I will inform Officer Geringer before I come. I'm very sorry to disturb you!"

Fletschler didn't reply, just stood aside quietly.

Gehringer stood up and said to Fletschler:

"Fretzler, let's go first. Help me say hello to the three children and tell Rooney that I will come to teach him how to play football at the weekend!"

Fletschler looked up at Gehringer and nodded slightly.

Then the three of them left the hospital and got into Gehringer's car without saying anything else.

"They are very afraid of reporters, Qiu, you know, three years ago, Fletschler almost ended his life because of an interview by a shitty reporter. Later, the reporter almost didn't leave Amstetten. This is also what I started with. The reason why I don’t want to see you!”

Bruckheimer made a joke to lighten the mood.

"Gringer, are you threatening us?"

"Haha... That's not true. I know Qiu is not a reporter, and he has a very good reputation!"

Shanhe forced a smile and did not reply. He was not in the mood to joke at the moment.

At this time, a yellow school bus stopped behind him and the door opened. In the rear mirror, Shanhe saw a blond boy getting out of the bus and waving goodbye to several friends.

The boy saw a car parked in front of his house early in the morning, and he recognized it as Gehringer's car.

He walked to the car and wanted to say hello to Gehringer, but when he saw two strangers sitting in the car on the way, he immediately stopped.

Shanhe saw the boy's entire expression change in the rear mirror of the car, from happy to panic, then hesitant and struggling, and finally walked to the window of Gehringer's car with uneasiness, and said hello softly like a little rabbit,

"Gringle!"

"Hey Rooney, how have you been at school these days? Did you join the football team?"

"No!"

"It doesn't matter, I will teach you on the weekend. You know, I almost became a professional player for the Budapest Red Star team. This is Qiu and Bruckheimer, who are great writers and producers. We were just guests at your house. Your mother cooked it. The coffee is still great! ”

The boy looked at Shanhe and Shanhe with evasive eyes, and whispered:

"Hello!"

"Hello, Rooney!"

"Gringer, I'm going home, I saw them on Susanna's computer yesterday!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy turned around and ran towards the yard.

The boy's words made Shanhe smile. This child was indeed well protected by his mother and sister.

Perhaps because he was still young, the suffering did not leave many sequelae on him. He was a bit thin and timid, but he was in good spirits!

Seeing this child who was born in hell but moved toward the sun, Shanhe instantly had an idea for writing: to describe the entire story from the child's perspective.

This will make the story less heavy, and describe everything a mother does for her children without being sensational, and perhaps bring more warmth and sunshine to this sin-filled story!

"Isn't this child very cute!"

"It is indeed cute and dazzling!"

Shanhe watched the child trot into the yard, and Gehringer also started the car. Then a burst of conversation came from the yard. As the car drove, Shanhe vaguely heard a few laughter mixed with it.

The laughter was very weak, but extremely beautiful!

Shanhe's mood suddenly became lighter. There is no shortage of beautiful things again, and bright sunflowers can also bloom in sin!

The day before the Berlin Film Festival ended, Shanhe and Bruckheimer rushed back to Berlin.

At this time, "Joker" has been released for two weeks, and the North American box office has exceeded 300 million, 320 million US dollars!

The global box office just exceeded 600 million US dollars.

Arthur the Clown is at his peak!

Shanhe returned to the touted vanity fair,

Almost all entertainment newspapers and websites are praising "Joker" in various ways, praising Shanhe and Heath Ledger.

"Art master", "genius combination", "the most touching friendship" and other nice words were all piled on the two of them.

The box office and popularity of "Joker" are really amazing!

An 80 million U.S. dollar mid-level investment villain drama movie actually wiped out all the superheroes with A-level investment.

Moreover, the popularity brought by the movie was so frightening that clown masks were sold out in the Western world. Many toy and jewelry factories in China received a large number of urgent orders for clown masks at the same time. There was even a scene where the whole town made clown masks together.

This scene was photographed and posted on the Internet, becoming a hotly discussed joke:

Shanhe crushed the European and American toy market with "Joker"!

Young people wearing clown masks can be seen everywhere on the streets of all big cities in Country M. Especially in New York, many young people's parties are named after clowns, and everyone wears clown masks to participate in carnivals.

Nightclubs have also become more fashionable, and "clown" themes can be seen everywhere late at night in New York!

Although Europe is not as crazy as Country M, the popularity is still not low!

"Joker" has become a flower blooming in sin, so beautiful that it makes people crazy!

But at this time, Shanhe was immersed in another beautiful petal, and he began to write the outline of "Room".

The boy Rooney brought him fragrant inspiration. The scenes in the movie in his memory were intertwined with the reality he had just seen. Shanhe was deeply touched!
