Chapter 509: Little Myna, the Blame-shifting Expert
On the day of the explosion, Bifang was still hammering iron in the Xishuangbanna rainforest and had no idea that this was happening.
Fortunately, Richard was not in the car when it exploded.
The other party may just be demonstrating and not intending to kill anyone.
The car was rented by Richard, and no one knew when the bomb was installed. For this, he had to pay a huge amount of compensation to the car rental company.
"It's good that no one died. Everything will be fine." Bifang sighed, comforted Jarrett, and asked, "What happened to the wound on your face?"
Jarrett touched his bruised cheek and recalled the past with a heavy heart: "The night we left, a group of residents suddenly rushed in and smashed all the filming equipment. We rushed in to protect the equipment and were beaten. However, it was too chaotic in the dark and they couldn't be sure if they had beaten the wrong person, so nothing serious happened. We all just suffered minor injuries."
The equipment for shooting documentaries can be as cheap as a few DVDs, but can also be ridiculously expensive.
Any equipment, once it reaches the audiophile level, will cost an astronomical price, not to mention that Jarrett got all of it directly from the Discovery Channel. The channel treated the director very well and trusted him, so they loaned him the equipment without asking why.
A complete set of photographic equipment, specially used for shooting documentaries, some of which are even more exaggerated than those used for movies. They are only rented and not sold.
In the end, all of it was gone. As soon as the hoe fell, the ugly gold flew away.
All the equipment was smashed to pieces and could not be put back together, let alone repaired.
I never expected that in an economically developed country where national education is highly praised internationally, the local villagers could be so barbaric!
Even worse than the savages who eat raw meat and drink blood!
After Jarrett finished speaking, he drank some soy milk and took a breath.
After hearing this, everyone was stunned and speechless, as if they were once again recalling the horror of Dolphin Bay.
The unanimous xenophobia of the locals has turned Dolphin Bay into a den of dragons, tigers and blood.
Driven by interests, everyone turned into demons in human skin, and almost prevented Jarrett, Richard and his group from returning.
This is indeed the case . If they were not all ugly Chinese, including a well-known director and professor among them, their "accidental deaths" would have caused quite a stir. It is hard to imagine how bold those Japanese would be.
Bifang was speechless. This sounded more exciting than his days in the rain forest. He glanced at the injured people and said, "So what are you going to do next?"
After Jarrett introduced everyone one by one, they gradually became familiar with each other and were no longer so restrained. They discussed with each other while eating breakfast.
"Of course I have to continue. If I don't, wouldn't my injury be in vain?"
The veins on Pangdi's forehead were exposed, and he had obviously suffered the same inhuman torture. As a security assistant, he had to protect everyone, so of course he had to take more beatings: "I'm going to teach those little bastards a lesson!"
The electrical
After hearing this, Bifang subconsciously glanced at the other party's Mediterranean sea and was in awe.
The other party’s academic attainments must be quite high!
The two divers looked at each other and said in unison: "All we want to know is what happened in that bay."
Any professional diver will have a fondness for the elves of the ocean. They are not fanatical dolphin lovers, but they are willing to find the truth for them.
Regardless of whether this is true or not, the Japanese government cannot be allowed to continue to cover up the truth recklessly.
Jarrett was so angry that he punched the marble table, almost spilling out the soy milk. "All my equipment was smashed. That's an astronomical amount of money! Now I don't know how to explain it to the station. I have to expose them all!"
Thinking about those equipments, he felt like vomiting blood. If he had to pay for them, he would have to pay for everything. Fortunately, the Adventure Channel waived the compensation because Jarrett had worked hard even though he had made no contribution. However, Jarrett felt bad about it.
He originally wanted to help a friend, but ended up causing losses to the company. Jarrett had to do something big to recover the company's losses!
This time he came to find Bifang in the hope that he could lead his defeated troops and fight back again.
Speaking of the issue he was most concerned about, Richard also spoke up: "The dolphin hunting season in Taiji starts every summer, from the end of July to March of the following year, almost a whole year. We must act quickly and expose everything they have done!"
"It's already the end of June, and in a few days it will be July. We still have a month left, but we must enter the site in advance and set up the cameras."
Bifang calculated the time. He had been surviving in the Xishuangbanna rainforest for twenty-one days. It was still the end of June and the dolphin hunting season had not yet begun. Although there were cases of dolphin killing, it was useless to take pictures of them.
The local government will simply use the excuse of accidental killing during normal fishing, which will not do anything about the whole matter.
Only by tearing off the bloodiest canvas can this darkness be truly exposed to the sun, which also means that Bifang and others must wait until the dolphin hunting season begins to shoot the most realistic massacre.
It sounds a bit inhumane. If they could film it, why didn't they just stop it? Instead of just watching the massacre happen?
Because there is no way to stop it.
Bifang knows very well how many people there are in a village.
Thousands or tens of thousands?
It is called a village, but in fact it is more appropriate to call it a county. The whole county supports fishing. How can Bifang fight against it with his own strength alone?
It is possible if you are given a superhuman physique.
Even if Bifang himself knew the truth and knew that more than 23,000 dolphins were killed in Dolphin Bay every year, he could come forward and expose it directly.
With my current influence, there will definitely be many people who choose to believe it.
However, anything without evidence will never become a trend, and once it fails to become a trend, it will be completely irrelevant to the local people.
Is it true that no one has come forward to expose the truth over the years?
Of course there are, but they all disappeared silently in the end. It is even possible that the local government will take advantage of the situation and turn the tables and attack Bifang.
A small fish can stir up a splash, a whale can create waves, but these are insignificant. But when tens of millions of big fish stir together, they can create a tsunami!
Those little bastards are capable of anything, especially their skill in shifting the blame. They must be crushed by the overwhelming force.
Bifang remembered that last year Japan blamed because local fishermen didn't even catch a fish skin, which made the people, who regarded saury as a common delicacy, very angry.
The authorities had to give an explanation, and the explanation they gave was that global warming was hindering fish migration.
Global warming is really a brick that can be moved wherever it is needed.
The government is accustomed to passing the buck, and so are the people. A large number of people blame China for overfishing, which has led to the little guys not being able to eat saury.
Please, except Japan, no other country in the world fishes for saury on a large scale. Saury is only a dozen yuan each at a small barbecue stall in China. It is so cheap. Are you telling me that we are overfishing?
Later, our own people could no longer stand it. Toshio Katsukawa, a doctoral student in agricultural and life sciences at the University of Tokyo and an associate professor at Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology, presented a large amount of facts and data to prove that Japan's own upper limit on saury fishing was inconsistent with the actual catch, and accused China of being "shameless."
No country other than Japan fishes for saury on a large scale.
If Japan could take the lead in establishing a resource management framework, it would not have come to this. It has waited until now, when the number of saury has dropped sharply, to think of making rules to "fix the problem after the sheep have been lost".
In fact, in Bifang's opinion, China has long been a leader in environmental and animal protection.
Whether it is the ten-year fishing ban in the Yangtze River, the introduction of summer fishing moratorium measures, the strengthening of fishing restrictions, the formulation of a strict fishing framework in Southeast Asia, and even in terrestrial protected areas and animal protection measures, they are much stronger than those ugly countries and Japan that only know how to spray, and even Europe that protects shrimp rights.
In addition, there are many other measures, including vigorously developing new energy, that are dedicated to protecting the environment.
Only China truly cares about the future of mankind and looks to long-term interests at the expense of short-term interests.
In matters like this, the key lies in who does more, not who shouts the loudest slogans.
Whether eating meat causes carbon emissions or something else, it is just a propaganda offensive by conspirators.
As for the little bastard, he must have felt very uncomfortable to be slapped in the face by an associate professor at the best university in his country.
Was I the one who overfished?
But even so, even after their own people took pictures to prove their point, there are still some Japanese who are unwilling to believe it. They accuse Katsukawa Toshio of taking dirty money, seeking authority, and using false data to deceive the public.
This is the case with ordinary saury, let alone the serious label of "dolphin slaughter", which we would rather die than be accused of.
For this reason, Richard and others must use the most realistic documentary, turning it into the sharpest nails, to nail these guys to death completely!
The current team, apart from the two seriously injured, includes Jarrett, a well-known documentary and Discovery Channel director, Richard, a dolphin expert and core figure, two world-class divers, an electrical expert, a photographer, and a safety assistant.
The last one is Bifang, the greatest adventurer of this century who has just joined.
A total of eight members are about to launch their second attack.
"The only problem is that we need a new batch of equipment now, but we don't know where to get it."
Jarrett was worried. He no longer had the face to ask the Adventure Channel for money. This shoot was different. If it was just an ordinary mission, he could still borrow from other directors.
But what they need is highly concealed functional shooting, while also having good shooting effects.
This kind of thing is hard to find. If you use ordinary photography to make it, it will be very time-consuming and you may not be able to catch up.
They needed to complete the filming in the shortest possible time after the dolphin hunting season in Dolphin Bay began and end everything as soon as possible.
A light bulb went off in Bifang's mind.
"I have an idea."
