What does it mean to overcrowd a movie theater
Look at the current situation of Yida Cinema and you will understand everything.
Each of the ten screening halls was overcrowded. Not only that, there were too many people waiting outside Yida Cinema. Some people had even waited for several hours.
There is no way, you can't buy tickets for the first time at all, but you have to be quick to get the tickets for the later time.
"I'm really drunk. Are you watching a movie? Why do I feel like everyone is watching a fairy?"
"Pfft~~Ye Shen is a god."
"God? Even if a god comes, this situation may not happen."
"Damn it, my legs are sore from waiting. I don't even have a place to sit. I've been standing for five hours and I haven't even eaten dinner."
"Damn, it's like we all had dinner."
"Everyone of you, just be satisfied. Even if I didn't have dinner and didn't get a ticket, I'm so worried that I almost cried."
"Brother, don't worry, there are scalpers out there, go and see if there are any tickets left."
When the audience heard this, their eyes lit up, and they squeezed out of the crowd and came outside.
As soon as he arrived outside, he heard an audience member muttering with a ticket in his hand.
"Damn scalpers, a damn ticket is ten times more expensive than the one in the theater, and it's too dark, but luckily I can watch Ye Shen's movie, but it's a little late, it's 11:30, it's a midnight show ”
Upon hearing this, the audience hurriedly came over to ask.
"Brother, where are the scalpers?"
The depressed audience looked up, then pointed at a young man not far away and said, "That bastard is the one, but I suggest you not to buy it, it's too dark."
This man didn't hear his words at all and walked towards the young man excitedly.
"Brother, do you still have tickets?"
The young man's face was turning black, and he shouted: "It's gone, it's gone."
"Hey~~Aren't you a scalper? I can buy it at ten times the price."
"Who the hell stipulates that scalpers must have endless tickets? Don't tell me to give me ten times the price. If you give me a hundred times the price, I won't have it anymore. Damn it, I bought it too fast. It’s so bad that I even sold out my own tickets. Now I’m looking for other friends to buy tickets. If I can’t buy tickets, I won’t be able to watch Ye Shen’s movie today.”
"."
The whole scene can be said to be a mess. People with tickets are going crazy, and people without tickets are even more crazy.
Yida Cinema Office.
"Manager, what's going on? There are too many people."
"Damn it, take all other movies off the shelves for me and put them all on Ye Shen's Dare to Die."
"Ah? Do you want to go to all ten screening rooms?"
"Up, up, up! Give it all to me!"
"But...but there are two movies that some people still watch. Watch 2 is okay."
"There are some people? Tell them to die, and tell them we won't let him go. If they want to see it, let them look at other places. We will only let him go to another house. Do you hear that? Tell them we will only let him go to another house!" "
I'm crazy. I won't show popular movies. Can I make money by just showing those random movies
Five minutes later, the employee came over again.
"Manager, don't scold me, it's still me."
"What the hell happened again?"
"It's still not enough."
"...Isn't it enough?! Aren't all ten screening halls arranged to show Ye Shen's films? Isn't this enough?"
"Not enough."
"Did you make any arrangements? How many minutes has it been? Even if you arrange it in four or five minutes, the tickets won't be sold out. Why do you know it's not enough?"
"Khan, manager, you didn't see the situation outside. I just told them to remove other movies and show all Ye Shen's movies. The next moment the tickets were sold out, and some people grabbed dozens of them at once."
"I'm @#¥&, I'm so nervous. Why are you grabbing so much? Eat it?"
"Reselling it."
"Depend on!"
"Manager, what should we do?"
"Go away, it's already like this, and you're still asking me what to do? What else can I do? Let them wait!"
Three minutes later, the employee opened the door again and came in.
"manager."
"Grass mud horse, get out!!!"
The manager is about to explode. Damn it, are you done yet? I told you that there is nothing I can do, but you are still here babbling.
The employee was so scared that he was sweating and said quickly: "Manager, calm down, Mr. Qin is here."
"What Mr. Qin? Let me tell you, I wouldn't be surprised if Prince Qin comes now, because he can't tell me what to do now."
"Ahem, manager, it is indeed the prince who is here."
".Don't make trouble."
The manager was stunned for a moment, then sat down and took a puff of cigarette, and said depressedly.
Before the employees could say anything, they saw a large group of people coming in, led by Qin Zekai.
When the manager saw this, he was completely stunned. He was stunned for several seconds before he quickly stood up.
"Young Master Qin."
Qin Zekai took a look and said, "Don't smoke in the room."
The manager quickly put out his cigarette in the ashtray.
Qin Zekai continued: "Prepare a ticket for each of us, and we need to have seats next to each other for the same performance."
The manager's face immediately turned bitter.
"Master Qin, this... this is too difficult for me."
"What do you mean? Don't tell me you didn't."
"I really didn't. Didn't you see what's going on outside?"
"Situation? What's the situation? I didn't see it. We came from the back passage."
"It's no wonder, Mr. Qin, our place is overcrowded today. Audiences outside have been waiting for five or six hours. We really don't have a single ticket. Besides, if you want to see it, you can't even see it." You don’t need a ticket, you can go in and watch directly.”
"Hmph, am I such an unruly person?"
"Ahem, that's what Mr. Qin said, but there are really no tickets. But just now someone from the audience suggested that we open channel tickets."
"Aisle ticket?"
"Yes, I bought a ticket and stood in the middle of the aisle to watch."
".Is this okay? Is business so hot today?"
Qin Zekai's eyes widened immediately. Not only him, but everyone behind him was also in disbelief. They bought tickets and stood in the aisle to see how good the business was.
The manager smiled bitterly and said: "There is no way, Ye Shen's appeal is too great, and the movie is really beautiful. Many people have watched it two or three times, and some people even changed today's scene from the first scene to the last scene at once. I bought all the tickets for each show and watched all the shows together."
"."
Qin Zekai was completely speechless. Tell me what's going on? I brought a group of friends to watch a movie at my home cinema, but I couldn’t go in without a ticket. If word spread about this, would others laugh at me
But he had no choice. If he really wanted to see it, he could only lead a group of people to stand in the passage and watch it like the manager said.
"What should I do?" Qin Zekai spread his hands and asked everyone helplessly.
Ye Fei smiled and said: "Forget it, don't make it difficult for him. It's a good thing that business is so booming. There's nothing to do anyway. Let's go and walk around. I know there are several movie theaters nearby. The situation should be better. After all, you Yida It’s so famous that I even thought about watching it here.”
Baby Matsui and the others all nodded in agreement.
Finally, Qin Zekai went to the front to take a look at the situation. When he saw the dark crowd of heads outside, the guy shrank his neck in fear and stepped back. Then he quickly led a group of people and ran away from behind. It was so scary.
But something tragic happened next. A group of rich and powerful people searched for four nearby movie theaters, but they were all full. They couldn't even get in, let alone buy tickets.
In the end, there was no other way, so a group of people wandered around Yida Plaza.
Who would have thought that any one of these people could buy a movie theater, but such a group of awesome guys are now wandering around the street like a group of Erbi, unable to even buy a movie ticket.
Several people were getting drunker one by one, and in the end they all stared at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei smiled and said, "Don't look at me, I'm innocent."
Brother Dingding sighed and said: "Ye Shen, next time you make a movie, can you tell me a few months in advance? I also deposit my tickets early. Emma is like today, and suddenly I feel like a failure. I The future heir of the dignified Andrew family can't even buy a movie ticket. I really want to die."
Dahale also laughed and said: "Me too."
Baby Matsui: "me too too."
"."
The movie couldn't be watched anymore. In the end, the group of people dispersed and went back depressed.
A group of people knew that Ye Fei was no longer broadcasting in Yinzhou City, so one by one they wanted to invite Ye Fei to go back with them, but Ye Fei finally refused.
He hailed a taxi and went straight to Yijing Garden.
After he moved from Ma Cuihua's house to the farmhouse, he actually gave the key to Ma Qingyun and asked him to help transfer it to Ma Cuihua, but Ma Qingyun didn't take it and told him to return it to his daughter in person.
But since Ma Cuihua went to Bari, they haven't met each other, so the key is still with Ye Fei.
There was nowhere to go today, so he wanted to go back to Yijing Garden and stay one night.
Just when Ye Fei was taking a taxi to Yijing Garden, it could be said that the entire film industry had been completely turned upside down.
In a five-star hotel, a huge party was being held at this time.
It's said to be a party, but it's actually a celebration.
This is a director named Feng Dagang and a group of people who are having fun. Their movie Watch 2 has been completed for a long time and will be released today, but they have never found a suitable time to hold a celebration party.
It was rare that all the actors gathered together today, so they held a belated celebration party. At this party, not only themselves, but also many friends from the film industry and the press were invited.
"Hahaha, brother Dagang, congratulations on the release of another masterpiece."
"Wherever I am, I still need your strong support."
"Definitely, definitely. I have never lost money when working with director Dagang."
"If you have money, everyone can make it. If you have money, everyone can make it, haha."
"I think this time Watch 2 is even better than the first one. I'm not saying that, it didn't make 3 billion at the box office."
"I'll lend you some good words, I'll lend you some good words."
"Dagang, when will the filming of Watch 3 start? I will recommend an actress to you. She is a beautiful woman. She has great potential. Please help me praise her."
"Oh, no problem, but I don't know how the second part of this watch will perform. If it fails, the third part will not be made."
"You, brother, can still hit the street after taking action? Which movie doesn't make a lot of money?"
"Hahaha."
"Director Feng, I heard that the filming rates of various theaters for Watch 2 this time are very high."
"It's not bad. If you can make money, no one is a fool."
A group of people were talking, and suddenly a reporter asked: "Director Feng Dagang, as far as I know, this time your Watch 2 and Ye Shen's Dare to Die are colliding head-on. Do you think you have a good chance of winning?"
Feng Dagang glanced at the reporter, sneered, and said: "Ye Shen is also an anchor I like very much. Listen to what I say clearly. He is an anchor, and I am a filmmaker. My major is making movies, and his major is As a host, who do you think can win?"
"Oh? Are you saying that Ye Shen is no longer professional in acting in movies? That means you will definitely be able to win Dare to Die Five this time, right?"
Before Feng Dagang could speak, an actor named Hong Daming next to him said with a smile: "Does this need to be said? As far as I know, the film scheduling rate of Watch 2 in various theaters across the country is much higher than that of Dare to Die 5. Domestic audiences are still I really support domestic films."
After Hong Daming finished speaking, many people at the scene nodded in agreement with this statement.
But the reporter raised his mobile phone and said: "Mr. Hong Daming, I just received news from several of my colleagues. They are located in different cities across the country. They said that the cinemas in these cities have temporarily suspended all movies. All of them have been taken off the shelves, and they have all been given way to Dare to Die, because there are too many people watching Dare to Die, and the supply exceeds demand in every theater. A friend of mine who is responsible for the national theater schedule told me that currently, it is roughly It is estimated that the placement rate of Dare to Die 5 has reached 90% nationwide, while the placement rate of Watch 2 is only 5%. What's going on?"
Hong Daming: "."
Feng Dagang: "."
Everyone present: "."
"Fuck, this is impossible!" Feng Dagang suddenly roared.
