[Rebirth] King of Theater

With the money, there is Al, a reborn person who is cheating, to control the overall situation...

This group of ticket sellers, mainly composed of children from slums, miraculously developed step by step.

Normally, except for a very small number of hardcore fans who would buy theater tickets early in the pre-sale period, the vast majority of audiences are still more accustomed to buying tickets at the scene three or four days before the show is about to start; People who are not well-informed even rushed to the box office to pay for tickets when the show was about to begin.

There was no problem with this operation.

But after Al threw money in and bought a lot of tickets, and after a while, the world changed.

On this day, two men walked into the theater lobby, chatting and walking forward.

One of the men looked short and fat, with a large head and unremarkable features.

But when he was talking, his eyebrows were beaming and his face was smiling, which gave people a very happy feeling: "...I really love that drama, yes, it is the "Pretty Mister", I love it so much! Especially the first episode Three acts! Do you know how cheerful Charles sang that "Courtship"! When he sang that line, "Let's dance together, step left, turn right again," I thought Jumping up on the spot like a rabbit, excitedly following him to dance, sing, and woo... It doesn't matter who he is, tall or thin, male or female, as long as he has two legs, Just dance with me!"

"My dear, I have never seen such a wonderful drama!"

Then, with all sincerity, he said, "My friend, I'm not ashamed to say that. But if you miss that show, you'll almost miss the entire season of this year."

"Yeah, I also regret not going to see it now." Another man also said.

Compared with his friends, he is tall and thin, but the top of his head is a little bald, and he wears a pair of thick glasses on his face, which makes him look very serious and old-fashioned: "But there is nothing I can do, I heard that tonight is the show Tickets for the last show were sold out long ago. Fortunately, we can still watch "Romeo and Juliet". I heard that this drama has been adapted a lot this year, and the outside reviews are mixed. I'm really curious."

"Romeo and Juliet!"

The short and fat man repeated: "It's a classic, but I don't know what the hell this adaptation looks like. Don't change the soup again, it will be boring. And, to be honest, Sarah I watch Weng's dramas every year, and I should get tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas."

"You say that, I don't agree."

The tall and thin old-fashioned man immediately retorted: "A good thing is a good thing no matter how many times you read it. Besides, it's Shakespeare's masterpiece! Let me tell you, apart from God, there is probably no one in the world who can compare with Shakespeare in terms of creativity. Especially In our theater industry, his old man is like the sun in the sky, always hanging high above his head, shining brightly."

"Okay, okay, I know you love him!" The short and fat man couldn't help laughing again.

Then, he happily changed the topic again: "I heard that the little girl playing Juliet this time is very beautiful!"

The two just walked to the ticket booth at this time, so they stopped chatting.

The chunky man knocked on the window of the ticket booth and said skillfully: "Buy tickets, two tickets, the new version of "Romeo and Juliet", the show at [-] o'clock tonight, do you still have the front row tickets?" ?”

The conductor on duty that day happened to be Mr. Smith who knew Al well.

He opened the small window and told the two, "Sorry, the tickets are sold out."

"What?" The short and fat man was immediately taken aback.

He looked down at the watch on his wrist, and was even more surprised: "It's only five o'clock in the afternoon. Is this show very popular?"

Smith replied honestly: "I don't know that."

"Why don't you look at it differently."

Another tall and thin man suggested: "That new drama "Emperor of the Ancient Kingdom" is a strange name."

The short and fat man said: "I don't like it very much. I heard that there are more random fabrications, and the reputation is not very good."

"Uh... There are tickets for "The Emperor of the Ancient Kingdom", but the tickets for the good seats are actually gone, only the top floor tickets that are far away from the stage are left."

Smith, who bought the ticket, took the opportunity to ask, "Do you want more?"

At this moment, the two men were a little stunned.

Tall and thin men are better off.

The short and fat man with a more lively personality couldn't help but go up and ask: "Man, tell the truth, has something happened to your theater? For example, there was a fire, which happened to burn down several theater halls. Or, The chandelier fell, and the good seats in some theaters just happened to be smashed to pieces?"

"How could such a big news go unreported." Smith, the ticket seller, was suddenly amused.

"Come on, don't make fun of the small ones!" He stuck his head out from the small window of the ticket booth, looked left and right first, and then waved furtively.

After the short and fat man and the tall and thin man looked at each other, they couldn't help their curiosity and moved over: "What's the matter?"

Smith, the ticket seller, said in a low voice: "In theory, I shouldn't talk about this. But I can see that you two really want to watch the show, so I'll just show you a clear way... In this way, you will get out of it." Don't go too far from the gate of the theater, walk about ten steps away, look around, ignore those bastards who drive up prices, just look for the kind of kid wearing a newsboy hat. Then, go up and ask him if he has There are no extra tickets."

Hey, that's strange!

The short and fat man couldn't help asking again: "From what you said, other ticket sellers are bastards who drive up prices, but don't you ask me to find a boy in a newsboy hat who sells tickets?"

"Let's not say that those children are all from the slums to make a living. They look pitiful. Let's just talk about the fare..."

Smith, the ticket seller, said in a very mysterious way: "They really didn't ask for more money, but gave you a cheaper price. If I say that, you don't believe me, just ask yourself!"

The two men couldn't help but look at each other, their curiosity aroused.

So, they all turned around, walked towards the door, and started looking around not far from the door...

Newsboy hat?Newsboy hat?

At this time, I saw a half-sized boy wearing a newsboy hat.

"Sir, do you want to buy a ticket?"

As soon as he noticed his gaze, the half-sized man wearing a newsboy hat immediately trotted over cleverly, and at the same time asked with a very courteous smile: "Look, I have quite a few theater tickets here, and the prices are not expensive."

The short and fat man asked directly: "Then do you have a ticket for tonight's new version of "Romeo and Juliet?"

"Yes, sir. What seat do you want, two tickets? You can get a [-]% discount for two tickets." The ticket seller said seriously.

That price is actually really conscientious!

It's just that on the basis of the original price of the theater ticket, depending on the location, an additional three or four yuan is added, and there is also a [-]% discount.

Strange!Strange!How strange!

These days, even scalpers are being conscientious!

The two customers who bought tickets looked at each other, and they both saw a very puzzled look in each other's eyes.

But the doubts are all doubts, tickets still have to be bought, and the two of them have to pay for tickets.

At this time, the small ticket vendor wearing a newsboy cap spoke up.

He said very considerately: "Two tickets are only [-]% off, which is actually a bit expensive. Why don't you try to buy one piece of "Luo Zhu" and another piece of "Emperor of the Ancient Kingdom". If you buy this way, "Ancient Kingdom" You can get a [-]% discount on tickets for The Emperor. You can watch two shows in a row for a little extra money, isn’t it a good deal?”

Both the short and fat man and the tall and thin man are confused, is it okay?

However, before the two of them figured it out...

The small ticket vendor began to help them consider again sincerely: "Hey, it's actually not the most cost-effective. You can also apply for a membership. You only need to pay another 30 yuan membership fee, and you can apply for our annual membership card." Yes. After finishing, within a whole year, all theater tickets in this area will be [-]% off for you, and there are many daily discounts. The latest program list of the theater will be mailed to you regularly. There will be peripherals and autographs of the repertoire and actors."

Two men: Wait, we haven't figured out that one just now.

"Besides, if you are in a hurry to watch a drama and are too lazy to sell tickets in person, just make a phone call and we can deliver it to your door for free. From then on, you will never have to worry about not being able to buy tickets again."

"Don't worry, we have been here for many years, and we will never run away with money. The identity, name, home address and other information are all registered at the police station. There are several gentlemen with excellent reputations to help us as security."

Are scalpers so formal now?

Two Men: Confused.jpg Confused.jpg Confused.jpg

The ticket seller continued to encourage: "Don't hesitate! Recently, we are holding an event, and the membership card is only 30 yuan. If you miss this wave, the price will increase to [-] yuan soon!"

The two were completely stunned, completely forgetting that they didn't want to buy any "Emperor of the Ancient Kingdom", nor did they want to apply for a membership card.

At this moment, their thinking line is probably like this:

Are scalpers so friendly now? (lingering on the edge of the pit)

How do you feel that buying tickets from scalpers is cheaper than buying tickets at the ticket office? (Standing by the edge of the pit and stretching out his legs to test)

You can watch two shows at a cheaper price! (steps into the pit)

What?Is it cheaper and more cost-effective to apply for a membership card? (jumping into the pit happily)

By the way, how much did I plan to spend only?

So, the two men bought tickets for two shows inexplicably, and also applied for two membership cards.

Although the money has been spent and the whole thing is over, it seems to be taking advantage of it, but no matter how I think about it, I feel something is wrong.

Just as the two of them were standing there, thinking about it for a long time, but they couldn't figure it out...

The tall and thin man suddenly remembered something, and called the boy who was about to leave after finishing the business, and asked, "You said just now that you have applied for a membership card, so you don't have to worry about not being able to buy tickets?"

The boy in the newsboy hat said, "Yes, sir. Most of them are available. As for the few that are particularly difficult to buy, I can only assure you that if we don't have them here, no one else will be able to."

"What about the tickets for Mr. Pretty?" the tall, thin man asked.

The boy in the newsboy hat was taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing: "You really asked the right person."

Then, he added: "Yes, there is, but only our boss has it. Besides, it's hard to get a ticket for this drama, so, the price..."

"The price is easy to say, where is your boss?"

"He hasn't got off work yet. In another hour or so, I'll take you there to buy from him."

So, about an hour later...

Al showed an awkward yet polite smile to Mr. Milson, who was brought over by his younger brother attentively and who was said to be asking him to buy a ticket at a high price.

— Help!I sold scalper tickets part-time after get off work, but I sold them to my boss, what should I do?

The author has something to say:

PS. I can click and comment, but I can’t save it. Do you all use web page favorites?So depressed.

PS. I know that in real life, it is very difficult for the protagonist to do this, but the novel is not about the king of scalpers (really not), and secondly, I don’t want to write any bad plots, so the whole thing seems It went smoothly.
