Chapter 266 Buying scalpers is illegal

 There is a corridor on the top of the Grand Theater. Visitors can go up and experience the feeling of watching Taihu Lake from a height. They can clearly see the musical fountain in the distance.

The wind is relatively strong, sticking people's clothes to their skin.

The water surface is also rippled like fish scales, and there are dazzling little suns in each one.

The sunlight reflected by water is the softest, and sometimes you can even see it with your eyes. However, this softness is also compared to metal, and it can still hurt your eyes if you look at it for a long time.

Chen Xing likes to look at rivers, lakes and seas very much, and likes this vast field of vision and the feeling of the wind blowing on his cheeks.

In spring, it is probably especially good to take pictures of some scenery on the water.

But forget it now, there is no shelter for you to hide from the sun when you stand here. Even if there is wind, you can't resist it. Chen Xing walked around in a circle and walked down together with other tourists who came up.

Before coming here, I originally wanted to watch a Shaoxing opera here, and then after the show ended, I could go see the musical fountain.

But Chen Xing really had no interest in this dance drama, so he navigated to the Wujiang Culture and Art Center mentioned by the driver and planned to go there to see if there were any performances.

I don’t know if I’m looking for the wrong place. Although it’s not too far away, it’s really not close by walking. It’s a full six kilometers.

I can still sneak there in the morning and evening, but during the day... forget it.

Still choose to take a ride there.

This art center is relatively ordinary in construction, but it is also a standard theater-shaped building.

It doesn't look big, but it can probably seat seven to eight hundred people at most.

There are actually two target points in the navigation, one is this theater, and the other is an association or something. Chen Xing asked the driver to come here because there were no comments. At least there are comments about the performance here in the navigation.<

/p>

The Art Center is right next to the highway. After getting off the bus, you can walk through a small green belt in front of it.

"Dance Drama..."

Why is it a dance drama again?

As soon as Chen Xing approached this place, he saw a huge advertisement. Perhaps it was because this theater was not as famous as the Grand Theater and it was not as attractive as the Grand Theater itself in attracting a large number of tourists. The advertisements here were very large.

In addition to a vertical billboard at the door, there is also a huge banner on top.

When Chen Xing saw the dance drama, he was really not very interested.

But soon he thought it might be good to watch a dance drama?

Different from the previous advertisements for the Grand Theater, the vertical billboard there only has a flying peacock, and a close-up of Teacher Yang Liping's face in dance clothes... There is only a close-up of the face, and no one can see it from the neck down.

.

But this dance drama in the cultural center looks very beautiful.

On the huge banner above, on the left is the name of the dance drama "Zhaojun Leaving the Fortress", and apart from the text, there is a group of beautiful dancers dancing in red costumes, with natural and gentle expressions.

So beautiful...

When I walked in, I saw that the vertical billboard at the door was exactly the same as that over there, but the characters were more expressive.

A beautiful woman is doing a classical dance pose, her posture is very elegant, and there is a long introduction in the lower right corner.

The dance drama "Zhaojun goes out of the fortress" starts from the Han Dynasty when there were numerous wars with the Xiongnu at the border fortress. It tells the story of the Han emperor who "wanted to fall in love with the country at Ningbian" and Zhaojun "asked for a tassel to go to the fortress". He stayed at the fortress until he was old, completing the mission of pacifying Ningbian and promoting national harmony.

A good story.

Main actor: Zhaojun: Tang Shiyi...

There are several names following, and it seems that several actresses are playing this role at the same time.

Chen Xing rubbed his chin and thought. It was said that he was not interested in modern dance dramas, but as a person who loves ancient culture, Chen Xing also wanted to learn classical dance. Anyway, I have nothing to do tonight. Can I buy a ticket and go in?
p>

Chen Xing also confirmed that the performance is indeed tonight.

He first went to the ticket sales place. Two girls in their twenties were chatting at the booth. When they saw Chen Xing come in, they immediately sat with their chest raised and looked like I am very professional.

"Are there any tickets for tonight's performance?" Chen Xing asked as soon as he came in.

"Is Zhaojun going out? It seems that there are no tickets? Let me check for you."

Tickets for ordinary dance dramas cannot be sold out, but tonight's troupe and the dance drama Zhaojun goes out to the fortress are somewhat famous in China. After they announced this performance on the Internet, there were even people from other provinces dedicated

Run over and take a look.

"Sorry, there are no more tickets."

"No more?"

Chen Xing came out shaking his head in disappointment.

But immediately an aunt walked up to Chen Xing and asked: "Handsome man, do you want to cut the money?"

"Um..."

Chen Xing was stunned for a moment when he saw her face. Usually the people who came to chat with him were young and beautiful girls. This was the first time he turned around and saw an old face that had experienced vicissitudes of life. He was startled... but soon realized that she

Who is it?

"Do you have a ticket?"

"If you have a ticket, there are two seats in the pool, both in the front row. There are also tickets on the second floor. The seats with the best viewing experience only cost this number."

She said nothing and made a three sign.

"Three hundred?"

The aunt shook her head and made another five sign.

"Five hundred?"

Chen Xing has never bought scalper tickets, and he hates the Riddler.

"Oh, young people have never seen a show? What kind of show can you see for 3,500 cents? You can't even see it if you go to buy a ticket for 3,500 cents, and you still watch the show, I'm talking about... 3,000,

Do you want a ticket of 3,000?"

Chen Xing was shocked, I want a fart!

It is true that he is not short of money, but wouldn’t it be a waste of money to watch a dance drama for 3,000 yuan?

There are so many stars in the Jiaxing Music Festival, and the ticket price is only 900 yuan. You have to charge me 3,000 yuan for a performance of up to two or three hours. Are you mentally ill or am I mentally ill?

"No, no, no!"

It can also be seen from here that Chen Xingzhen has never found scalpers.

It's normal for scalpers to double the price. Anyway, the ticket is here. If you want to see it, just tell me whether to buy it or not.

"Hey, handsome man, don't worry. It's a pool seat. It's the seat closest to the stage. It's only a few meters away from the actors. If you like a certain actor, you can see their every move clearly."

"Where is the pool seat?"

"It's the front row under the stage. My ticket is for the first row inside the front row."

"Can we watch the show well? It's too close, too close."

"There is also a viewing area. The best viewing area. Tickets for the second floor are sold to you for two thousand yuan."

She stopped talking dirty, and she also discovered that Chen Xing is just a stupid young man. I don’t think Chen Xing would understand it in a broad sense, and generally speaking, such stupid young people are not policemen, so there is no need to be cautious.

"Are the tickets on the second floor more expensive?"

"Yes."

"Then you also charge me 3,000 for the ticket in front of you?"

"Then you can negotiate the price."

The aunts were also anxious to buy tickets. They found out on the Internet that the tickets for this play were easily sold, and there were many people who wanted to see them, so they came to grab them. But they found that they only talked but did not do anything with that group of people. There was a lot of shouting on the Internet, but nothing happened.

Several people came to them to buy tickets.

This is also related to the fact that they only sell tickets on site.

There are no celebrities in the dance drama, and no die-hard fans are willing to come outside the theater to get tickets. When everyone sees that the tickets are sold out, they will only feel a little regretful that they did not grab the tickets, and will not have the idea of ​​​​going to the venue to find scalpers.<

/p>

In the end, Chen Xing spent a thousand and three dollars to buy a ticket for the pool seat. He really didn’t know as much about dance dramas as other audience members. Before today, he had never even heard of dance dramas a few times, let alone Chinese classical music.

It’s a dance drama.

To put it bluntly, he was just bored at night and came to see the beautiful woman.

Therefore, compared to the areas with good visuals at the back, the Chizuo area is actually Chen Xing’s best choice.

Chen Xing felt uneasy after getting the ticket, so he went back to the ticket center to find the two beauties and asked: "Beautiful beauty, help me see if this ticket is real?"

"What? Did you buy a ticket?"

They were also surprised and took a look at Chen Xing's ticket.

"It's true, our theater is rarely this lively, and the tickets for the pool seats haven't been sold for a long time."

"Can I see where this ticket is located?"

One of the beauties clicked on the computer, and the screen in front of Chen Xing displayed the floor plan of their theater, which looked like a movie theater.

The theater of the Cultural and Art Center is divided into two floors. The third floor cannot be called a floor, it can only be called a box.

The tickets for the box seats are all given away by the theater, so they can't grab them. The front seats on the second floor are the best tickets. In comparison, the pool seats are cheaper, even though they are closest to the stage.

The pool seats are usually where the live band performs. If the performance does not require a live band, the theater will cover this area and put seats in it, so that it can charge more tickets and accommodate more audiences.

Chen Xing checked it and found that the aunt was right. It was indeed very close to the stage.

Another girl selling tickets looked younger and more active. She was holding her hands on the stage and asked Chen Xing curiously: "Where did you get your tickets? You don't know how to find scalpers, do you?"

"They were looking for me."

"My God, there really are scalpers. Sister Lin, there are scalpers in our theater too!"

Sister Lin was the one who operated the computer. After hearing this, she glanced outside the room and asked Chen Xing: "Is it that aunt?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Selling scalping tickets is illegal."

Chen Xing: "..."

If she didn’t tell Chen Xing, she still wouldn’t know.

He thought that scalpers were buying tickets at a low price, and then selling the tickets at a high price to other people who needed them. This was at most a speculative behavior in the past, but now that they are no longer guilty of this crime, is it still illegal?

Chen Xing asked nervously: "What about me buying it?"

The young beauty smiled: "I don't know, it's probably illegal, right?"

Chen Xing thought deeply.

Forget it, forget it and call the police!

You bought the ticket yourself, and calling the police is reporting it. Don’t let others take the credit away from you.

The worst case scenario is a loss of more than a thousand yuan.

Moreover, there will definitely be no one holding the tickets for this position, and it will be possible to buy them again in the theater.

The person selling the tickets may not even know that Chen Xing bought the tickets but did not go back and wait for the show to start. Instead, she ran to the ticket hall to confirm. At this time, she was still looking at the crowds in front of the theater bitterly.

Seeing who was stopping at the door of the theater, he went up and asked: "Friend, do you want to cut the tickets?"

I had no idea that the three people in the ticket hall were conspiring to report.

I made several calls.

The two girls notified the supervisor first, and Chen Xing directly called a branch office only two kilometers away from here.

Two minutes later, a man who looked like a leader came out of the door in the ticket hall.

As soon as he came in, he asked: "Really? Gou Lin, are the tickets for our theater so popular?"

The people at their cultural and art center never hold any concerts, they only promote traditional culture, which is usually either Shaoxing opera or other local operas, and then there are Chinese orchestras, classical orchestras, classical dance dramas and so on.

Although the crew performing tonight's performance is somewhat famous on the Internet, if you check the information a little, you will know that scalping tickets for dance dramas are not easy to sell.

Therefore, this was the first time he heard that there were scalpers in their theater.

"Yes, it's true, this handsome guy discovered it!" Another young girl rushed to say.

The leader looked at Chen Xing and said enthusiastically: "Thank you, fancier, you have done us a big favor. It is also our negligence. I have never thought about the problem of scalping tickets, and I don't know how many seats will be available tonight."

."

There are two types of scalpers, one is professional scalpers and the other is self-directed and acted.

He confirmed that no one in the crew did such a thing, so the people outside must be ticket sellers in society.

Under the identification of the employee, he also saw the middle-aged aunt wandering on the side of the road. With her sneaky look, she could be called a thief, let alone a ticket seller.

The leader looked at her and then at Chen Xing, who was sitting on a chair playing with his mobile phone behind him.

Sure enough, temperament is invisible and intangible, but it is definitely related to a person's heart. That aunt shrank just looking at her, and the temperament she cultivated is also related to her career.

And this guest named Chen Xing, at first glance, seems to be a very cultivated person, rich and confident.

"Did you call the police?"

"Called the police."

He was talking to Chen Xing when suddenly a few plainclothes men in front of him took action and held down the aunt, scaring many people around him - and then they immediately took out their mobile phones, no matter what happened, they first took a picture for Moments.<

/p>

Then a person came in and asked: "Who called the police?"

Chen Xing raised his hand, put away his phone and stood up, saying, "I reported it, did you catch the person?"

"We've caught it. Over there, can you help us identify it? Just here."

He has a good attitude and is very polite.

Chen Xing glanced outside and saw that the aunt was cursing and shouting that she was wronged.

"It's her." Chen Xing nodded and said.

"Then do you have time? If you have time, can you come with us to make a transcript? It's very simple. If you don't have time, you can do it here."

In reality, there is no requirement in novels that the person who calls the police must follow them to take notes. Otherwise, many illegal things will be seen and ignored. Some unimportant matters can be handled on the spot.

And when it comes to evidence, the tickets found on the aunt’s body are the evidence.

Chen Xing took out the ticket he bought and said: "I spent more than a thousand to buy one. I will give you the ticket. Can you get the money back for me?"

"Of course it's no problem." He took the ticket from Chen Xing's hand, stretched out his hand and said, "Thank you for your cooperation, little brother."

Chen Xing shook hands with him.

The theater leader who just walked out followed them, and Chen Xing and two girls selling tickets were left in the ticket hall.

Chen Xing asked: "What about my ticket for tonight's performance?"

"Hehe, you suddenly want to watch a show? Don't worry, there's no one at that seat anyway. I'll just help you get another ticket later."
