Chapter 2160 The Attendance Is Not Too Bad
? It's getting late, it's already past 11 o'clock in the evening.
In the United States, in a cinema hall, several staff members are chatting.
"It's almost 11:30. How many people do you think "The Shawshank Redemption" will watch? It is also one of the entries. If there are not many viewers in total, isn't it too embarrassing?"
"It's all now and there's still no audience. If you lose face, you'll definitely lose your face. It's not that the quality of Huaguo's films is poor, but the choice of themes and actors. The problem is too big, and it's normal to have no audience. If I knew earlier that it should be replaced by Mr. Grover's "Ape-Ape-Man", maybe it is already full of audiences."
"No way, "The Shawshank Redemption" is one of the participating films. According to the agreement, we have to schedule a time slot to broadcast every day, and there is no way to waste resources."
"..."
There are still 10 minutes before 11:30, and no viewer has chosen to watch "The Shawshank Redemption", which makes the staff secretly shake their heads, which is simply a waste of resources.
At this moment, a young man with a lonely expression walked into the hall, came to the ticket office and asked, "What is the most recent movie that started?"
A staff member said: "The Shawshank Redemption, which started at 11:30, is a movie that only started today, but the reputation of this movie is very poor. Then it starts five minutes later..."
Before the staff member finished speaking, the young man interrupted: "Okay, it's not too late, just this one, give me a ticket."
The staff was a little surprised. The man didn't ask to change the movie after hearing the name of the movie. Could it be that he didn't know the situation of this movie?
The staff felt that he had to fulfill his obligation to inform him, so instead of calling the young man immediately, he said, "Sir, this movie has a very bad reputation, and no one watched it at all. You are the first choice. People watching this movie. Actually, you can choose another movie, it’s only five minutes later, they all belong to the same time slot.”
The young man's expression was still lonely, and he said, "No need, just this one. No one has the best view. Anyway, I don't care whether the movie is good or bad."
The staff looked suspiciously at the young man, hesitated, and seemed to want to say something, but instead of saying, "Okay, please wait a moment, sir."
after,
Ask the young man to choose the seat position, and the young man chooses a seat in the last row.
The staff typed out the movie ticket, handed it to the young man and said, "Sir, you can go to check the ticket and enter the theater now."
The young man took the movie ticket, nodded, and walked towards the hallway.
After the man left, the staff sighed, "I even sold a ticket. That man is afraid that he will enjoy the treatment of a movie ticket."
A staff member next to him said: "This is actually normal. Sometimes people do choose to watch a movie at random. They don't care whether the movie is good or not. In this case, it is usually a couple, and all they need is the movie theater. The atmosphere, whether the movie is good or not is actually not important. In addition, there is a situation where people are frustrated for various reasons, and they also don't care whether the movie is good or not. The young man just now is obviously a frustrated person, I think We need to pay attention to his state in the theater."
The previous staff nodded and was about to say something when two more men walked to the ticket machine where she was and said directly, "Two tickets for The Shawshank Redemption starting at 11:30."
The staff was stunned again and said, "Are you really "The Shawshank Redemption"? The reputation of this movie..."
The words were also interrupted before he finished speaking. A man smiled lightly and said: "The word of mouth is very bad, right? It's okay, we just came to see how bad this movie is? I'm going to write an article after watching it. After watching. Although no one has watched this movie, it has a very high degree of attention. The after-view we wrote will definitely have a good popularity. I just hope we can stick to the moment when the movie is finished.”
"Is this okay?" The staff have been working in the movie theater for several years, and this is the first time they have encountered such a situation.
Subsequently, the staff played out two movie tickets and handed them to the two men.
The two men took the movie tickets, thanked them, and then walked towards the entrance of the cinema hall with some anticipation.
I don't know, I thought they were going to see a very popular movie.
After the two men left, the staff sighed again.
Then, I was quite surprised to find that the young man who looked a little lonely before, and the two men just now, were just the beginning. After that, some viewers who chose to watch "The Shawshank Redemption" came one after another.
There are probably about 20 people, most of them are in the same situation as the first young man, it doesn't matter whether the movie is good or not, as long as the start time is recent.
The rest is almost the same as the situation of the two men behind. I came here to see how bad it is? After watching it, it is better to go to the Internet to express your impressions to attract attention.
In both cases the staff can understand, but in one case the staff does not understand.
There was an equally young man in front of Dai who came specifically for "The Shawshank Redemption", and his reason was that everyone thought the movie would be very bad, but he just felt that this movie might bring Give him a real surprise.
"Real surprise? How is this possible?" The staff couldn't believe it.
For whatever reason, when it was 11:30 p.m. and "The Shawshank Redemption" started on time, there were already two dozen spectators in the theater.
It was originally a small movie hall with only a few dozen seats, but when more than 20 people sat, it seemed that the attendance was okay.
This was beyond the expectations of all the staff, and after thinking about the reasons for this situation, they slowly relieved.
In other major cinemas, the situation is not much different. At least 10 people are seated in the cinema hall, and as many as 30 people.
Considering that this is the time slot of 11:30, such an attendance rate is actually not too bad.
No matter what the reason is, at least the attendance rate is really not too bad.
Such a situation was quickly reported on the Internet, and countless netizens were quite surprised and depressed when they learned of the situation.
They all knew that "The Shawshank Redemption" was broadcast at this time slot, so they deliberately waited for relevant news feedback on the Internet, hoping to see news that the attendance rate was very dismal.
But who knew it would be such a situation, which made them not only surprised, but also very depressed.
Fortunately, this situation should only be temporary. Today is the first day of the show. Some people will watch it specially, and no one should watch it tomorrow.
Then, there will be only those who don't care whether the movie looks good or not.
There is no way out, such people will definitely exist.
It doesn't matter, there are not too many people like that after all.
Now, just waiting to see the feedback from those who are watching in the theater at this time.
"I don't know how many minutes those people can last?" Many people on the Internet are thinking about this question.
