Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 692: You can’t only shout for fairness when things are not in your favor

"I clearly bought "Crazy Stone", but the ticket I received was for "Lost and Love". What's going on?"

"What the hell, how come there are still handwritten movie tickets these days?"

"The ticket I bought for Crazy Stone was clearly 48 per ticket, but why did it show only 29 per ticket after it was issued?"

"Excuse me, why don't the people at the cinema let me buy tickets online? They insist that I buy tickets on site, saying there is a discount..."

A series of questions have appeared on social media platforms one after another.

At first, she was just a complete newbie asking the question sincerely, because she really couldn't understand why the ticket sales for "Stone" became "Lost and Love".

Even she herself did not expect that her unintentional question would become a "dropping stone" and directly triggered a wave of complaints.

Anyone who knows a little bit about the inside story will immediately realize that someone is stealing the box office revenue of "Stone".

All of the methods used here are the most commonly used tricks to steal box office revenue.

Moreover, although these methods are varied, the victim is the same, which means that it is definitely not an accident.

This was a premeditated and organized ticket-stealing operation!

The biggest suspect here happens to be "Lost and Love", the most direct competitor for the box office champion, and the topic suddenly became very popular.

In less than two hours, #The box office of "Crazy Stone" was stolen# rushed to the top 5 trending searches, which in turn led to a new round of follow-up craze. Movie fans from all over the country posted their weird ticket stubs and handwritten tickets...

The ticket-stealing scandal began to escalate.

A group of self-media people immediately smelled the scent of traffic and began to follow suit.

Someone who claimed to be a "cinema practitioner" even openly revealed the news in a live broadcast - the ticket theft for "Stone" actually started on May 5th!

According to industry model estimates, over the past few days, the box office revenue stolen from "Stone" is conservatively estimated to be at least 300 million!
And where did the stolen box office money go? Everyone knows it.

The difference between the in and out is six or seven hundred million.

Considering the current gap in total box office between "Stone" and "Lost and Love"...the things here are very intriguing.

So after all the fuss, the actual total box office of "Stone" has actually already surpassed "Lost and Love"?

Grass!
With such big news coming out, all the entertainment media will naturally try their best to interview the parties involved.

As the biggest suspect, the "Lost and Love" crew from top to bottom remained silent and refused to accept any interviews.

What can you do to me as long as I don't speak?
As for "Stone", which is the victim, what everyone wants to see most is definitely Zhou Hao's interview, firstly because he is the screenwriter and creator, and secondly because of his big shot nature.

It's just for fun, so of course no matter how big the event!
However, to everyone's disappointment, Zhou Hao also went into seclusion, concentrating on writing a book and refusing to accept interviews.

Everyone had to settle for the next best thing and go interview director Zhang Mo.

Zhang Mo is not as courageous as Zhou Hao. After all, he still has to make a living in this circle, so he certainly cannot speak freely. Even if he is very angry, he can only hold his nose and say a bunch of specious and half-hearted words, which makes everyone very disappointed.

However, just when everyone was feeling a little disappointed, someone suddenly ran out and fired a shot.

Mr. Zhang Junfeng suddenly posted a concise update on Weibo: "Dare to steal but not dare to admit it, so shameless, it perfectly fits my stereotype of a certain place, he tui!" Similar complaints and sarcasm are actually not uncommon, and there are at least tens of thousands of them on the entire Internet.

But Mr. Zhang has a different status after all, and his statement easily makes people imagine - could this be Director Zhang's intention? He himself is embarrassed to come forward, so he lets his son come out to take sides and express his stance?
This update was like a pot of kerosene, making the already blazing flames burn even more fiercely.

As a result, just when the momentum of public opinion was developing fiercely, the hot search terms suddenly disappeared out of thin air...

Several media professionals and internet celebrities who participated in the condemnation also received warning letters from lawyers.

This time, everyone is not going to do it.

Not only did you steal the box office, you even wanted to cover your mouth?
I can go to hell!
In just two hours, we made the high-ranking capital understand what "a single spark can start a prairie fire" means.

On several mainstream ticketing platforms, the ratings of "Lost and Love" plummeted, and the homepage of the comment section was almost entirely dominated by various insults and ridicules.

Words such as "thief", "trash", and "shameless" appeared frequently, and the ticket refund data also skyrocketed.

Even on Huaban.com, the mother-father website of "Lost and Love", this film was not spared.

In just two hours, more than 8.6 one-star negative reviews were added, and the film's score plummeted from 7.8 at the beginning to ...

This made many frogs so anxious that they jumped up and down and cursed, accusing the "Stone" film production team of instigating the "television army" to maliciously brush up the scores and engage in unfair competition.

Faced with such ridiculous remarks, the spectators silenced them with just one sentence - you want fair competition, right? Okay, but I just want to ask you why Huaban.com doesn't dare to open the ratings for "Stone"?

You can't just yell about fair play when things are not in your favor, right?

However, the hype on the Internet did not affect the ticket stealing trend offline.

According to feedback uploaded by netizens, there are still cinema chains that are defying the law and blatantly stealing box office revenue for "Lost and Love."

The arrogant face is reflected vividly!
However, they never expected that this arrogant look would directly arouse everyone's rebellious psychology - do you really think you can be lawless?
I really don't believe this!
Soon after, a strange trend appeared on the Internet - a large number of people began to communicate with each other, checking which cinemas did not steal box office revenue, and then everyone went directly there to buy tickets to watch movies.

Even if it's a little far, it's worth it!

To use the words of one netizen: I would rather spend more money on taxis than have those bastards show off in front of me!
Some of the people who had been cheated into buying tickets to boost the box office of "Lost and Love" also started to pay for tickets and contribute to the box office of "Stone".

Even if some people don't have time to watch the movie a second time, it doesn't stop them from buying tickets to support it.

With such crazy support, the box office performance of "Stone" unsurprisingly set a new record - the single-day box office directly reversed the decline and reached 4.46 million!
On the other hand, the single-day box office of "Lost and Love" plummeted to 7276 million...

This set of comparative data is like a loud slap in the face of those arrogant people.

Even though we knew this situation couldn't continue, we couldn't help but cheer for it.

Even if some people don't like "Stone" that much, they have joined in now.

At least when it comes to resisting the violence of capital, everyone is united in their stance.

Go to Nima!
