The Addo Maru is a Japanese sunken ship in the film "Lift a finger 2" directed by the famous director Feng. Ado Maru in the film is based on the historical Apo Maru incident.

The historical Apomaru was a Japanese ocean-going ship built in the 1940s, with a total length of 154.9 meters, a width of 20.2 meters, a depth of 12.6 meters and a gross tonnage of1249.4 tons.

1On March 28th, 945, the Apomaru was requisitioned by the Japanese army, and a group of Japanese soldiers who had retreated from Southeast Asia were loaded in Singapore, ready to return to Japan.

1 In the early morning of April 1, Apomaru was found by the American submarine "Queen Fish" while sailing to the east of Niushan Island in Fujian, China, and then launched a torpedo attack on Apomaru.

Three minutes later, Apomaru quickly sank into the sea. Except for one person, 2009 passengers, 40 tons of gold, 12 tons of platinum, 15 carats of diamonds, about 40 boxes of jewelry and cultural relics, 3000 tons of tin ingots, 3000 tons of rubber and thousands of tons of rice all sank to the bottom of the sea.

Extended data:

Apomaru is a 10,000-ton civilian ship requisitioned by Japan during World War II. 1945, Japan's defeat was decided, and the Japanese army decided to transport a large number of jewels plundered in Southeast Asia and China back to Japan, so this task was handed over to the Apomaru, because there was an unwritten rule between the warring countries that civilian ships could not be attacked, so the Japanese wanted to hide it.

On March 28th, Apomaru returned from Singapore with a full load and sailed for Japan. In the early morning of April 1, the ship sailed to the sea east of Niushan Island in Pingtan, Fujian, China, and was discovered by the US submarine "Queen Fish" cruising in the sea. It was attacked by several torpedoes and sank quickly after three minutes.

At that time, it was foggy and the captain of the American army thought it was a warship. As a result, he found the wrong number. They only rescued one Japanese soldier. In the 1970s, someone evaluated the cargo on the Apomaru. It is said that the cargo on the Apomaru, excluding the skulls of Beijingers, is worth as much as $5 billion. What a huge fortune it is, it attracts many people to explore.

The United States, Japan and even Britain have kicked the threshold of China, hoping to use advanced underwater salvage technology to salvage together with China and participate in the share of salvage. Japan, in particular, is in a good period of restoring relations between China and Japan. Japanese enthusiasm for Apomaru was very high, but it was rejected by China. From any angle, Apopill belongs to China.

Such a large amount of wealth was too important for poor China at that time. From 1977 to 1980, China sent the largest salvage team in history, and more than 600 divers went into the water to work. Lian Haijun came to help.

Unfortunately, perhaps for technical reasons, only some materials such as tin ingots, rubber, mercury, niobium and tantalum, mica and actinic glass ***54 18 tons, with a total value of more than 50 million yuan.

In addition, the China Shanghai Red Cross Society also salvaged 368 Japanese bones and returned them to the Japanese Red Cross Society. Not to mention the skulls of Beijingers, I have never seen one or two gold and silver.

However, it is reported that we may salvage the Apomaru for the second time, and complete this work through commercial operation, self-financing, self-risk, state approval and profit sharing, and then we may find the skull of Beijingers. After all, this is the only clue to find the skull of Peking man.
