The clanging of metal, muffled sobs, and in the latest leaked clips, two chilling words slip out
like a breath of wind, help me. It happened right in the middle of a live stream, yet no one noticed.
Yu Menglong left behind an international distress signal, a desperate hidden acrostic poem,
and a haunting prophecy. If one day I disappear, it is absolutely not an accident.
Behind those overlooked signs lies a mysterious USB drive, a shadowy web of power, and a list of
17 names with terrifying connections. From the spotlight of fame to the bloodstained darkness,
from friendships turned to betrayal, to a mastermind said to be the illegitimate son
of a top official, the truth is slowly surfacing, leaving one haunting question.
Who is really the hand pulling the strings behind this tragedy?
Join me as we dig into the truth in today's video.
Did Yu Menglong cry for help twice on his live stream?
On September 22nd, an investigative blogger posted a video said to be the most viewed clip
of Yu Menglong on TikTok. The blogger said they couldn't bring themselves to watch it a second time
because it was too heartbreaking. Although the footage is visually unclear, the audio contains
the clanging of metal and Yu Menglong's sobs, suggesting he was being tortured. In fact, before
this incident he had made a number of discreet pleas for help that sadly went unnoticed. In his
final live stream on August 29th, Yu Menglong can be heard twice, softly saying, help me.
Please pay close attention to this video. One netizen watched it repeatedly and said that,
judging by his lip movements and the faint sound, like a whistle of air, the words were
unmistakably help me. That means, from August 29th, or possibly earlier, he was already under
someone's control and in grave danger. He missed several chances to survive. Some viewers even
noticed that he made the 540 distress signal during the stream. That's an international silent
alert used when you need help but can't speak out. You can signal others by making these hand
positions. 5. Open the palm, facing outward, fingers together. 4. Fold the thumb into the palm.
0. Make a fist. He also said a few other lines. The weather's not great today. The sky's full of
dark clouds. Remember to take an umbrella. Lately I've been learning magic tricks. Death
can actually be very simple. Some netizens pointed out that these lines form an acrostic.
The first letters of each sentence spell out, please don't let me die today. When fans asked
about the bruise on his forehead, he replied, if one day I suddenly disappear, remember,
it is absolutely not an accident. All of this centers on a USB drive and the information he
held. Some ask, Yu Menglong seemed so clean. How could he have evidence of money laundering?
The truth is that China's entertainment industry and money laundering operations
are often tightly linked. An actor seeking fame generally faces two hazards,
unwritten rules and coercion, being used to launder money. Previously, an entertainment
star revealed how refusing certain drinking parties could mean three years without work.
In 2019, at a rap party in Hengdian, Yu Menglong's life changed over a single room key card.
A female investor offered him the card, but he bowed his head and pretended to be drunk,
refusing it. What seemed like an awkward client reception turned out to be decisive.
The next day, his lead role was abruptly pulled and promotional posters replaced him.
That's the terrifying power of dark capital. In the entertainment world, there are several
common money laundering methods. Inflating production costs to launder dirty money.
Many films aren't grandiose, but claim billion or multi-billion dollar investments as a cover.
Falsifying box office receipts to wash money. Using dual yin-yang contracts. A headline
contract promises a star a large fee, but in reality, they receive only a small portion.
The bulk flows to the wealthy backers. Everyone remembers Fan Bingbing's dual contract scandal,
but she wasn't the only one. Many top stars face the same pressure.
Another mastermind exposed? On September 21st, the ex-account Xinwen Diaocha posted,
In the past, people always said that Xin Qi was the illegitimate son of Kai Qi.
But judging by appearance, Xin Qi doesn't resemble Tai Chi at all. One is from Fujian,
the other from Hubei. They had little in common. By contrast, the person ultimately uncovered,
Kai Yizhe, real name Zheng Jin, bears a striking resemblance to Kai Qi. They share the same
surname. Kai Yizhe's family background is shrouded in mystery, with no traceable information.
According to Baidu Baike, a Canaan Chinese film actor, a graduate of the acting department at the
Central Academy of Drama, he was born on June 25th, 1996, in Fuzhou, Fujian, Fujian, into a
civil servant family. In 2016, Kai Yizhe made his acting debut in the youth drama Our Boyhood,
stepping into the entertainment industry. Between 2017 and 2022, he starred in six
romance dramas, many of them in leading roles. The Xinwen Diaocha account outlined the reasons
it believes Kai Yizhe is Kai Qi's illegitimate son. The two look remarkably alike. Genes don't
lie. Kai Yizhe was born during the period when Kai Qi worked in Fujian, and his mother was likely
Kai Qi's mistress. Both carry the surname Kai. In China, men often even want illegitimate sons
to bear their surname. Since 2017, the media has been unable to dig up any information about
Kai Yizhe's family, something only possible with the influence of a CCP official, at vice national
level or above. Despite his ordinary looks, Kai Yizhe had abundant resources from the start,
with many top stars propping up his career. In the Yu Menglong case, he was the last figure to
Before him, names like Cheng Qingsong, Ji Guangguang, Song Yiren, Fang Li, Tian Hairong,
and Fan Xici acted as three layers of shields. Finally, the true heavyweight behind the Yu
Menglong affair, Kai Yizhe, alleged illegitimate son of Kai Qi, has come to light.
Where are the 17 suspects now? Netizens have compiled a list of 17 suspects.
Wang Xinqi, real name Xin Xiaoxiong, rumored to be one of the illegitimate sons of senior
CCP leader Tai Chi, though this remains uncertain. Fan Li, a director who once publicly stated he
had been sexually abused in childhood and may be homosexual. Cheng Qingsong. On September 10th,
he posted a Weibo photo showing bloodstains on his shoes. A post circulating online described
At his birthday parties, many celebrities publicly offered congratulations,
a sign of his connections and others' fear of offending him. Within the industry, he has a
notorious reputation, forcing young male stars into submission, arranging group activities,
and ensuring that none of his chosen targets escaped collective abuse. Those considered
lucky were introduced to powerful tycoons. In this circle, good looks are a curse. Those
without backing either find wealthy women to sponsor them or sell themselves to rich men.
Anyone who stays honest, focused only on supporting their family, becomes prey for these
hunting dogs. Song Yiren, allegedly the organizer of the event. She is acquainted with Tai Erjun,
son of current Vice Minister of Economy Tai Qizheng. Yu Menglong's phone was found in her
possession. In two photos, Yu Menglong had taken selfies with his phone. But on Song Yiren's Weibo,
one of her food photos shows a phone with the same distinctive case under the table edge,
raising suspicions it was his. 5 and 6. Yuan Ziwen and Yuan Zihao,
the famous Peking University twins, said to be Song Yiren's close aides.
7. Gao Taiyu, rumored to be gay or bisexual. He posted news of Yu Menglong's death on Weibo
even before the official announcement, which was highly suspicious.
Tian Hirong, rumored to be Xinqi's aunt, fond of hidden rules. She is a billionaire widow of
Xu Ming. Her fortune came from Xu, who had ties to Bo Xulai and Jiang Zemin's faction,
which at the time dealt not only in organ trafficking but also weapons.
Xu Ming was certainly involved in arms dealings. He died of heart disease in prison a year before
release, with no autopsy and a rushed cremation, possibly silenced for knowing too much.
9. Kai Yijia, real name Kai Zhengjun, suspected to be the legitimate son of CCP leader Tai Chi.
10. Jiao Maiqi claimed he wasn't at the scene, but a Douyin video from September 10
shows a reflection in his sunglasses that revealed the crime location, proving he was present.
11. Fu Zicha, known on Xiaohongshu as Kelly Yuan,
rumored to be a descendant of a founding leader of the CCP.
Fan Xijie considered Yu Menglong's close friend, but ultimately betrayed him. He tricked Yu into
attending the party, restrained him when he tried to escape, and even cut open Yu's abdomen
in search of the USB. One netizen wrote that their uncle, a coroner in Beijing, conducted
the autopsy. The uncle reportedly cried upon seeing the body, which was battered and bruised,
with bleeding from the ears and nose, and injuries from blunt force. In photos of Yu Menglong's fall
at the second crime scene, many noticed bandages under his shirt, possibly covering wounds from
the abdominal incision. 13. Zhou Hao, a film company CEO also linked to the death of actor
Qiao Renliang and other related figures. A Fudan University graduate, outwardly glamorous,
and very close to Wang Sikong. 14. Zhang Jiawei, aka Zhang Suzhou,
based in Jiangsu, possibly using an alias. 15. Ji Guangguang, real name Li Ming, a screenwriter.
Two Rolex watches found in Yu Menglong's bag belonged to him, suggesting he was set up as a
decoy. After all, no real perpetrator would deliberately leave personal belongings on the
victim unless the aim was to have others recognize the evidence and target him as a scapegoat.
16. Hu Haiyan, a film director. 17. Du Qian, nicknamed Brother Gavin Du,
a personal assistant and hired enforcer. Where are these people now? As for Director
Fan Li and Cheng Qingsong, after the Chaoyang Public Security Bureau released its notice,
both began to stir. On the evening of September 21, Fan Li filed a police report,
claiming he had been slandered and defamed online. On September 26, Cheng Qingsong announced he would
consult with lawyers to sue and defend his rights. Yet before the official notice, their
behavior was very strange. Fan Li insisted he didn't know Yu Menglong. Cheng Qingsong not only
denied knowing him, but also swore he had never attended related parties. Meanwhile, the well-known
twins Yuan Ziwen and Yuan Zihao also issued statements, each saying they would sue those
spreading rumors. Song Yiren, said to be the key organizer of the party, is rumored to have fled
to Japan. Her Weibo account currently shows an IP address in Japan. She has not answered netizens'
questions, only repeatedly deleting posts. On September 23, she posted on Weibo denying
involvement in the Yu Menglong case, claiming she had always been in Beijing and that the
online rumors were suffocating. She had already reported them to police. Interestingly, her long
post never once mentioned Yu Menglong by name, as if deliberately avoiding it. Another name
drawing attention is Fu Ziqia, Kelly Yuan on Xiaohongshu, descendant of a founding CCP leader.
She has always been mysterious, and after being named among the 17 suspects, she deleted or hid
all posts and information. Her Xiaohongshu page can no longer be found. In deleted or hidden posts,
one photo was uncovered showing a girl circled in red, said to be Fu Ziqia. Two others in the
shot, if not mistaken, were Song Yiren and Ji Guangguang, Li Ming, suggesting they knew each
other well. Two other photos also show Fu Ziqia dining with Song Yiren. On August 10, Song Yiren
posted a series of updates on Weibo and Xiaohongshu from Zhejiang. In two photos, a fish dish and a
dessert, sharp-eyed viewers noticed they were identical to images Fu Ziqia had posted on August
Netizens analyzed that she also lived in the Sunshine Shandong complex, previously reported
as the residence of Song Yiren, Cheng Qingsong, and Ji Guangguang, and the crime scene tied to
Yu Menglong. Yu Menglong's assistant Du Qiyang, also known as a hired enforcer, was said by
netizens to have been assigned to monitor him. Normally, Du bullied Yu often. Once,
when Bosiden gifted Yu a down jacket, Du snatched it and sold it off. In one photo from an event,
Du can be seen wearing a mask, standing not far away, his eyes coldly fixed on Yu. Reports say
Du repeatedly mistreated him and even renewed contracts on his behalf without consent. A Tencent
article once reported that in 2017, after Eternal Love aired, Yu's role as Baizhen shot to fame.
He gained two million Weibo followers in just three days. The very next day, Yang Mi's studio
approached with an offer to sign him on far better terms than his then-agency Tianyu. But
Tianyu immediately forced a contract renewal, locking in Yu's schedule solid through 2023.
This showed just how tightly Tianyu controlled him. By then, his freedom was already gone.
Was that renewal signed by Du Qiyang in Yu's place?
Finally, Fan Xiqi. After the list of 17 surfaced, Fan's lawyer issued a statement
claiming the viral videos were baseless rumors and defamation. Yet some netizens pointed out
that the man in an orange cap at the crime scene was indeed Fan. Others argue both Yu Menglong
and Fan Xiqi were tools. They shared a studio and several cross-industry companies, which were
essentially money-laundering fronts. Yu believed Fan was also a victim and trusted him deeply.
But Fan yielded, became a traitor, while Yu resisted to the end. Fan Xiqi debuted in 2013,
the same year as Yu, as contestants on Happy Boys. Yet when the top 20 were cut to 10,
Fan was eliminated. Though he returned in a revival round, he was finally stopped at the top
six. Many records show that contestants from that season all registered companies in Jiaozhou,
Shandong around the same time. Netizen-provided documents reveal that Fan and Yu once co-registered
multiple companies together, spanning medical equipment, leisure agriculture, cultural
stationery, and even military goods. All of this shows just how powerful the dark forces behind the
Yu Menglong case truly are. The USB drive said to have caused his death may have contained evidence
of arms smuggling. What do you think? Leave your comments below. Thanks for watching. See you next
