Chapter 27: Movie Tickets Oversold
At first, netizens were naturally skeptical about this.

Such a high rating? Don't eat while watching it? A bloody lesson?
seriously?
Lu Renjia is one of these netizens. As an ordinary office worker, his only hobby may be watching two movies on weekdays.

His personal taste is very wide, and many types of films are on his menu, and he is not picky about food.

But to be honest, the Cantonese films in recent years...it seems that he remembers that there has not been much performance in this category.

In the late 20th century and early 21st century, Cantonese films were indeed popular all over the country, and the Hong Kong style swept across the mainland. But until now, the mainland has developed rapidly, but Hong Kong seems to have pressed the pause button.

The Jianggang entertainment industry has naturally lived up to its former glory and has entered an awkward period of transition, and is now unable to produce any qualified works.

This is the impression that Cantonese films of this era bring to people.

There are only a lot of bad movies, and the main thing is that they are bad in all kinds of ways. Lu Renjia himself has tried to watch quite a few of them, but was severely poisoned by them all.

Not to mention the 'comedy' element.

Cantonese comedy films are in a state of decline.

The two are compatible, plus the comments given by the arbitrators and the current discussions on the Internet.
It has to be said that Lu Renjia's interest was aroused.

And now it was time to get off work. After buying the tickets online, he chose to drive directly to the nearby shopping mall cinema, watch the movie and then go back!
A nearby cinema was not far away, only one kilometer away from the office building where their company was located. Soon, Lu Renjia arrived at his destination.

However, as soon as he entered the theater, he was shocked by the extremely lively atmosphere inside.

However, the atmosphere was not very friendly. Many customers watching movies in the front seemed to have some disputes with the movie staff and conflicts broke out among them.

"Hey, why are you guys like this?"

"In this day and age, in the era of big data, is there still a phenomenon of overselling? Are you kidding me?"

"I don't care. I have to see the movie today! Otherwise, I'll give you one star in the public review!"

The staff could only bow and apologize to the angry customers: "We are so sorry, this is a problem with our scheduling. We will refund your tickets in full and make corresponding compensation."

Lu Renjia was not interested in these disputes. It had nothing to do with him anyway.

He just squeezed through the crowd while saying, "Excuse me, let me borrow your ticket for a moment."

After finally squeezing to the ticket machine, he took out the QR code and scanned it.

If it is normal, the machine will spit out a ticket the next moment.

However, at this moment, a line of prompts popped up on the ticket machine: [We are very sorry, your ticket information is wrong, the system query information is wrong, please contact the front desk staff. ]

"?"

Lu Renjia frowned.

What does it mean?
At this time, a young man who had been watching the whole time spoke up: "Okay, stop watching. I guess you're here to watch Pulp Comedy, too, right?"

Lu Renjia was stunned, then turned around and nodded: "Yes."

How did he know.

As if he saw Lu Renjia's confusion, the young man pointed at the crowd at the scene and said, "Look, as you can see, we are all here. We also bought tickets. The ticket office of Cat's Eye Stone clearly showed that there were tickets, so we bought them. But when we arrived at the scene, guess what? They were oversold!

Because this film was screened very low and had not been well-known before, they probably did not even think that there would be a shortage of tickets, so they did not set a threshold, which resulted in insufficient screenings being sold.

Now the people here are all unable to enter at all, they said they want to refund and give each person some compensation.”

"Shit! That won't work!"

When the matter became related to him, Lu Renjia immediately became unhappy and joined the group of people who were indignant.

I had happily accepted the recommendation. I was already very tired after a day's work and had been through so much trouble. I just wanted to watch a movie to relax after get off work.

Now you don’t even let you watch it?

"I don't accept refunds! Overselling is your business, you have to take responsibility. I must see it today!" Lu Renjia said: "I bought the ticket, this is an ironclad fact."

The staff was sweating, but they didn't seem to be willing to negotiate. She had no choice but to contact her boss.

In the exclusive foot massage, a pot-bellied man is enjoying the gentle service of technician No. 18.

He is the owner of a cinema chain.

He ordered the 688 'Hong Xiu Tian Xiang' gentle massage service.

As the saying goes, love rises with the bell, and it is hard to calm down when it stops. I was originally a guest who never returned, but in the eyes of the technician, I was treated as a distinguished guest.

I used to think that fairies were on earth, but after experiencing enough, I realized that fairies were in private rooms.

She will pass through my world without leaving any painful memories, but only the purest emotional value. No one will give the purest love to a stranger unless she has a license plate on her.

As he got older and experienced more, he gradually became addicted to foot massage and never returned. After all, he had lost everything and the world was under great pressure, but there were still people who could heal him.

Even if this person's life itself is in a mess.

A gambling father, a sick mother, a brother who goes to school, and a broken woman.

But when she stood in front of him carrying the small box, she was still saving him.

What is great love? This is great love!

Even Michael Arthur, a five-star VIP member, commented: If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world. He hopes that foot therapy will be included in medical insurance.
Of course, the premise is that the clock can remain stable. At first, he also thought so. No matter what, nothing can stop the 688 from expressing their true feelings to each other.

Until a phone call came in, interrupting their conversation about how romantic the coastline of Mozambique is and the ideas proposed by world-renowned philosophers.

This was a call that was reported through many levels and finally reached him.

"What? The film schedule exploded? Dark horse??"

It’s all redundant.

He took a last lingering look at her, who was gentle and at a loss, as if trying to keep her, but she was very sensible and didn't complain at all, she just nodded.

He made an important decision: "Tell the front desk that I will work extra hours until tomorrow morning so that you can have a good rest."

After saying this, he left, without taking away a single cloud, leaving behind only her rosy, loving face, looking radiant and full of life.

So, wearing a bathrobe and wearing a card, he returned to the battlefield, to the conference room.

Similar situations are happening in many places across the country.

Some bosses or shareholders don't even have time to wipe the lipstick off their faces before appearing in front of their subordinates.

There is naturally no controversy about whether to deepen the screening schedule.

Unless you have the chance to make money, you’d be a fool not to do so.

But they never thought that this restricted-level Cantonese film released during the summer vacation would unexpectedly become a big hit.

This is a well-deserved dark horse.

"This is so weird, this thing can explode? What kind of monster shot this?"

What is this brand new track?

In fact, nowadays the screening schedule is flexible. If a movie performs well, the screening schedule will be adjusted and the number of screenings will be increased. The screening schedule of those movies with poor performance has never been squeezed out. Now it changes in real time.

But this does not apply when it's particularly busy, which is the case now. The screening schedule is already packed. There are too many films released during the summer vacation, and many of them have luxurious casts. If we squeeze their screening rates at will, even if their own performance is very poor, it will not work.

In the film and television industry, everyone is playing with the ways of the world, and those who understand will understand.

Therefore, flexible scheduling will be turned off at this time.

As a result, the current situation of screening overflow and overselling of movie tickets has occurred.
