Liu Xiurong said regretfully, "Oh my, how could something like this happen? She was still so young. What a pity."
"Producer Liu, did you have much contact with Zhou Jingjing?"
"Not much. I remember that she only participated in three or four episodes. We talked once before the first filming to understand her basic situation and personality traits. After that, it was normal filming. I was mainly responsible for the production, content, and post-production of the show. I basically didn't have much contact with her."
"During that time, did you notice anything unusual about her?"
Liu Xiurong waved her hand. "We have 16 female guests, one host, two emotion teachers, and three to four male guests. Not to mention the production team's staff, there are dozens of people. I can't even pay attention to all of them."
Han Bin took the opportunity to ask, "Speaking of male guests, do you remember who took Zhou Jingjing away?"
"I have to think about this …" Liu Xiurong pinched her temples and thought for a while. "I don't remember the specific name, but I think his surname is Yan. The young man was very handsome, very sunny, and versatile. There were many female guests at the scene who turned on their lights, but in the end, he still took Zhou Jingjing's hand."
"Comrade Police, although I don't remember the specific name, I can help you investigate if you need."
Han Bin said, "Before coming here, I watched a few episodes of your show. The person who took Zhou Jingjing away is called Yan Heyu."
"Oh, yes, yes. Now that you mention it, that's the name." Liu Xiurong responded and asked, "Do you suspect that this Yan Heyu killed Zhou Jingjing?"
"We are still investigating. At the moment, there is no clear evidence. We also hope that your show can provide some clues."
Liu Xiurong recalled. "This Yan Heyu only came for one episode. I did talk to him once, but it was just a normal conversation. I can't say that I know him very well, so I might not be able to provide any clues."
"Is Yan Heyu his real name?"
"Yes, before they go on the show, we make them sign a contract, and there will be a copy of the male guest's identity. This is definitely not bad."
"Can you find his information? We need to verify his identity."
"No problem. I'll get someone to do it right away." As she spoke, Liu Xiurong waved her hand and called over a man in his twenties. The man was a little thin and wore thick glasses. He looked like Liu Xiurong's assistant.
Liu Xiurong whispered a few instructions to him, then turned to Han Bin and said, "Officer Han, if you have any requests, please let us know. Our production team will definitely cooperate."
"Thank you." Han Bin smiled and continued, "Then bring out the information on Yan Heyu, Zhou Jingjing, Lu Jingfang, and Ren Baitao."
Liu Xiurong was stunned. Actually, she was just being polite.
"Officer Han, why did you ask for Lu Jingfang and Ren Baitao's information?"
Han Bin glanced at Liu Xiurong's assistant and said, "Ask someone to get it out first, I'll tell you slowly."
Liu Xiurong understood. She whispered a few words to her assistant, and the male assistant jogged away.
Liu Xiurong asked, "Officer Han, is Lu Jingfang related to Zhou Jingjing's death?"
Han Bin asked, "Are you familiar with Lu Jingfang?"
"Not bad. This girl is quite interesting, and she left a deep impression on me."
"How is she interesting?"
"We do dating shows and have seen too many people. Most of the female guests are more reserved. They are the kind of people who see through things but don't say it out loud. But Lu Jingfang is different. She is very direct. She wrote on the show application that she wants to find a rich boyfriend. Even on the show, she never hid it. To be honest, I like this kind of female guest very much. It's easy for the show's effect and the ratings to go up. "Liu Xiurong made a rising hand gesture.
"Do Zhou Jingjing and Lu Jingfang have a lot of contact?"
"I don't really remember. I'm too involved in too many things. I don't like to get involved in the affairs of the female guests. It's better to have less trouble. They'll solve their private matters on their own. If there's a problem during the recording, they'll usually communicate directly with the host. There aren't many situations where they directly look for me." Liu Xiurong said with a look of concern.
"Is Lu Jingfang related to Zhou Jingjing's death?"
"Lu Jingfang is also dead."
"What! Lu Jingfang is also dead? She was also killed? "Liu Xiurong stood up suddenly, giving Han Bin a fright.
"Producer Liu, your show has two female guests dead at once. You should know the seriousness of this matter." Han Bin waved his hand, gesturing for her to sit down as he continued speaking.
"One female guest being killed might be a coincidence, but two female guests being killed … I'm afraid it's hard to believe that it's a coincidence."
Liu Xiurong wiped the sweat off her forehead. "Officer Han, our show is proper. There are definitely no such things as that. The deaths of the female guests really have nothing to do with our show."
"I've always been a good judge of people. I'm willing to believe Producer Liu's words, but as long as this case is not solved, it will be very difficult for the show to be completely cleared of suspicion. Two people dying in a row is not a small matter," Han Bin said.
Liu Xiurong took a deep breath. "Will it affect the recording of the show?"
Han Bin shook his head. "I can't guarantee that."
Liu Xiurong's forehead furrowed into a frown. "Aiyo, then what should we do? This is really an undeserved disaster. Our show has never had this kind of problem before. "
Han Bin comforted her. "Producer Liu, you don't have to worry too much. These effects are only temporary. As long as the police can successfully solve this case and prove that the deaths of the two female guests have nothing to do with the show, it will naturally disappear like smoke in thin air."
"Yes, yes, yes. The innocent will be cleared. Officer Han, please be sure to solve the case and prove our show's innocence."
"I will do my best. I also hope that your show can cooperate with us and provide as many clues as possible. That way, we can solve the case as soon as possible."
Liu Xiurong vowed. "No problem. I will definitely do my best to help. This is also my duty as a citizen."
After Han Bin was done with the pleasantries, he changed the topic. "Do you still remember the scene of Lu Jingfang being taken away?"
"I have a slight impression. That young man should be the Ren Baitao that you mentioned. His financial conditions are not bad and he opened his own company. I think the two of them are quite suitable. I'm also very happy that he can help Lu Jingfang find a good home." Liu Xiurong was a little emotional as she said this.
"I've been doing shows for so many years. Other than making the show well and satisfying the audience, I also hope to do something meaningful. I feel that helping these young people go on blind dates and introduce them to each other is also a kind of blessing."
Bao Xing, who was at the side, suddenly said, "But now Lu Jingfang is dead."
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold. Liu Xiurong was also a little embarrassed. "Yes, I feel very sad about her death and I also hope to be able to help her."
Han Bin changed the topic and asked, "Do you have Yan Heyu and Ren Baitao's contact information?"
"Yes, it's in their information. We usually contact them according to the information."
Han Bin asked a few more questions. Liu Xiurong's male assistant walked over and handed Liu Xiurong a brown paper bag. Liu Xiurong glanced at it and directly handed it to Han Bin. "Officer Han, the information you want is all here."
Han Bin took the information, glanced at it, and casually handed it to Bao Xing. He continued to ask, "Producer Liu, other than you, who has more authority in the show?"
"Host Zhang, usually when I'm not around, he has the final say in the show."
"Zhang Yibin?"
"Yes, Xiao Yun is his assistant. You should have met him before."
"Hmph." Bao Xing snorted and curled his lips. "I've met him before, but Host Zhang is in a hurry to record the show and has no time for us."
Hearing Bao Xing's dissatisfaction, Liu Xiurong quickly explained, "Host Zhang is not very good with words, but he doesn't have any bad intentions. Maybe it's because he's about to record the show and there are dozens of people waiting for him. He's a little nervous and doesn't pay much attention to what he says. "
Bao Xing shrugged. "We understand that, so we didn't say anything and let him record the show. Moreover, the three of us were very supportive and became guests."
"I'm officially summoning him now. After he finishes recording the show, I'll ask him to go to the police station to make a statement. Without the pressure of recording the show, I hope his attitude will be better."
"Aiyo, this officer is right. After he finishes recording the show, I'll definitely warn him and make him correct his attitude." After Liu Xiurong finished speaking, she looked at Han Bin. She could tell that Han Bin was the one in charge.
"Officer Han, Host Zhang may have done something wrong, but he is a host after all, a public figure. If he goes to the police station to make a statement, it may have a negative impact on him, and it may even affect the image of our program group. Can you make an exception and not summon him to the police station?"
Bao Xing said with a straight face, "Producer Liu, are you interfering with our police investigation?"
"No, no, that's not what I meant. I'm saying that we can ask questions here. Please wait a moment, he's finished recording the show … No, I'll go to the recording studio to call him and have him come over to assist the three of you in your investigation. You can ask him whatever you want here. "Liu Xiurong's attitude was very sincere.
Han Bin had always been one to respect others tenfold. People had feelings and everything had a certain degree of mobility. As long as it didn't violate the rules of the police force, the police also had a certain degree of autonomy.
If the people involved cooperated with the police investigation, Han Bin would also give them a certain degree of preferential treatment.
Han Bin cleared his throat. "Originally, Zhang Yibin's situation would be more suitable to be summoned to the police station to make a statement. As for whether he's a public figure or not, it's not up to the police to consider. The police treat the people equally and won't give him too much preferential treatment just because he's a host."
"However, the police and the people work together like a family. Producer Liu is willing to cooperate with the police investigation, and I'm also willing to give you face and agree to your suggestion."
Liu Xiurong said gratefully, "Officer Han, thank you so much. You can't leave this afternoon, so I'll treat you to lunch personally."
Han Bin waved his hand. He wouldn't do anything that violated the rules of the police force. "I appreciate your kindness, but I won't be eating."
