Li Anyi is an avid fan.

She works in a big city and likes to catch up on TV series, watch talk shows, script-killing variety shows, etc. after get off work. Recently, she fell in love with an idol named Wu Zhan. During the selection period, she spent a lot of money voting for him and fought with the opponents. When the audition was over and the idol debuted, she started to worry about data, popularity, etc. and became quite obsessed.

She had managed to get tickets for her idol’s concert before, and was able to meet her idol in person and hang out with her best friends. She felt that her life had become much more fulfilling.

This time, the idol starred in a TV series. Although the leading actress was a bit unpleasant, Li Anyi still had to support his idol, so he bought a ticket to watch the show.

When watching a movie, she was only concerned with the looks of her idol, and didn't pay any attention to the plot at all.

Of course, when the hero and heroine were kissing, she had cursed the heroine a thousand times in her heart.

But after the first day, the movie's box office plummeted, and many fan groups came up with ideas to help their idols' first movie have good data.

Soon they figured out a way to lock in the theaters, and Li Anyi naturally joined in, buying tickets for several shows at the cinema in his city.

However, as the box office of movies gets lower and lower, sometimes the showtimes of cinemas are locked for an entire day, with almost no revenue. Many cinemas have also begun to restrict pre-purchases and refund tickets for showtimes with too few people.

Especially those who bought tickets but did not show up, the first to be affected were the movies of their idol Li Anyi. If the number of tickets sold for a show was less than ten an hour before the movie started, the show would be canceled and another movie would be shown instead. In fact, the company made a lot of money from the audience who could not buy tickets at the right time.

Therefore, they worked out their own strategy for participation.

Li Anyi was there today, ready to watch the movie in an hour.

She sat down on a chair at the ticket counter when her cell phone suddenly rang.

When she answered the phone, it was the cinema calling. They told Li Anyi that since there were too few people at the show she bought a ticket for, they would cancel the show and refund her ticket.

"No, I'm already here, how can you cancel it?"

Li Anyi spoke righteously, and she immediately went to the ticket office to find the person in charge of the theater to argue.

"We are very sorry, but there are too few people who bought tickets for this show. We are also following the above arrangements. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you."

The person in charge of the cinema practices Tai Chi.

"But I'm already here, planning to watch a movie and then have dinner with friends. You can't just let me sit here for the next few hours, right?"

Li Anyi said again.

"With your service attitude, I will never come to your house to watch a movie again."

"I'm very sorry. How about this? We will refund your full ticket price. Since there is another movie being shown this time, we will arrange for you to watch this show for free."

The person in charge said that this is a compensation plan given by the higher-ups. If the movie is withdrawn and the audience makes a fuss, they will be given this show for free. Since it is a temporary replacement, there are seats available in most cases.

Although the person in charge does not understand why there is such a strategy, it is better than being locked out and only making money from one or two tickets, or even encountering unscrupulous people who directly cancel the tickets more than ten minutes in advance and not making any money from a ticket.

Li Anyi frowned slightly. Although she felt that the cinema was not fair, it would be a waste not to watch the movie.

"Well, since you all said so, I want the best position."

She took the ticket and sat back.

Looking at the electronic screen at the ticket office, Li Anyi saw that his idol's movie was gone, and it was replaced by a movie with a strange name.

"cry".

“What movie is this?”

Li Anyi, who doesn't pay much attention to the film industry, searched on his mobile phone.

A look at the online ratings shows it's only 8.5 points, which is pretty average.

She scrolled through the comments again.

"It's not scary at all. Calling this movie a horror movie is an insult to the word horror!"

"The ending of this movie is very healing, it's not scary at all, really!"

"I have never seen such a hilarious horror movie, I recommend you all watch it!"

“After watching the movie, I didn’t feel any fear at all.”

“It’s not scary at all, and children can watch it with confidence!”

Most of the comments with many likes and replies have similar arguments.

"What? Does anyone really watch this kind of movie?"

Li Anyi felt strange. From the introduction it seemed like a horror movie, but the reviews said it was not scary at all. So what was the point?

That's still eight points?

She didn't quite believe it.

At this moment, Li Anyi noticed that the number of tickets for the show of "The Crying" that were added temporarily was decreasing rapidly, and soon only a dozen or so seats were left.

When she checked her tickets for the movie, she found herself surrounded by people.

Most of them were young people, talking and laughing.

She was puzzled. Aren’t there all these comments saying that it’s not good and not scary? Why are there still so many people watching it?

The cinema was very generous and arranged a seat for Li Anyi in the middle of the theater, which was the best position for viewing the movie. He could face the big screen and experience the most shocking sound and visual effects.

"not bad."

Li Anyi relaxed and looked at the people around him who were sitting upright, looking as if they were about to face something terrible.

The movie begins.

More than an hour later.

Li Anyi sat on the soft sofa, unable to move.

She tried to stand up, but found that her legs were already weak. Li Anyi's back was all wet, from the cold sweat she had caused herself by being scared.

Ten minutes after the movie started, Li Anyi realized that he shouldn't be sitting here.

Although the cinema was crowded, the atmosphere of the movie still made her feel as if she was in a hospital and was extremely scared.

As the plot progressed, Li Anyi had already begun to consider quitting, but her legs had already become stiff and she dared not even close her eyes. She could only watch the entire movie from the best viewing position.

Until the cleaning lady came over, Li Anyi and several audience members were unable to move.

She now had only one thought.

What the hell is wrong with the people who made this movie? How could they come up with something like this!

It took a long time before Li Anyi was able to walk out of the cinema. She was now glad that she had watched the movie in the afternoon. If it had been at night, she might not even dare to go home by herself.

She took out her cell phone and took another look at the film reviews of "The Wailing".

Only then did Li Anyi understand everything.

She decisively showed her ticket stub and posted a comment.

"This movie is not scary at all, it's very family-friendly, I recommend everyone to watch it when they have a gathering with friends."

After posting, Li Anyi felt that it was not enough, so she went to her idol’s fan group and spoke.

"This movie 'The Wailing' is quite good, not too scary. Sisters can go and watch it when they have time."

I can't be the only one scared!
