Director Chen didn't wait for the second episode of Xiao Xu's review, but he waited for the third episode of "Between Scenic Spots". Tourists, undercover reporters and photographers from the program team came to this beautiful coastal city.
Under the influence of Xiao Xu's pace, everyone's attention naturally shifted to overcharging and "zero complaints".
The Internet is so lively now, it’s hard not to care.
The program crew also thought that since the hot island scenic area held a press conference and spoke so nicely, it must have been rectified and the phenomenon of overcharging tourists should have been greatly reduced.
But soon, everyone discovered that
What Xiao Xu reviewed was exactly what they saw.
Tourists and undercover reporters are all shocked. The internet has become like this, and you still continue to do as you please?
The undercover reporter secretly interviewed the boss: "Boss, do you know what's going on online right now? Why is the rope you use to tie the crabs still so thick?"
The boss was also unhappy and was about to chase the man away, but he saw the undercover reporter handing him a pack of Huazi and explained that he also sells seafood and wanted to learn "advanced experience". The boss then put away his fierce face and explained while puffing out smoke:
"People can say whatever they want on the Internet. If we follow what they say, will we not have any food?"
"We in Redao City have always followed this rule. We need to eat! We can't just sit there and starve after hearing a few barking dogs! Is it easy to run a small business? You sell seafood, too. Don't you think this makes sense?"
"Yes, yes, you are right."
The undercover reporter smiled and asked, "But won't the spread of this information online affect our customer flow?"
"Not at all! Not at all! If they don't come, there will be plenty of people coming! Don't you see that there are more tourists now than before?" The seafood store owner said confidently, "The rent here is so expensive. If we don't do this, what will we eat? When you come to a place, you have to follow the local rules and do as the Romans do!"
The undercover reporter frowned and asked: "But this is not good for the long term!"
"Brother, you are also in the seafood business, how can you be so naive! Long-term? Even if people scold you now... they will all be forgotten in two months! Come back when it's time, long-term, long-term business is good!"
"I learned it!"
Director Chen, who was watching the program, almost spit out blood at the TV. He was really impressed by these bastards doing business in the scenic area. They dared to say anything outside. I wonder if the program crew will come in the next two days?
I have warned you again and again, but you just turned a deaf ear to me?
The undercover reporter was also curious: "I saw you just held a press conference here, aren't you worried about being punished?"
"Punishment? Of course I'm a little worried... But the law doesn't punish everyone! It's not just my family, it's everyone! If you have the guts, lock us all up and see what the tourists eat here!
"Besides, the places run by the scenic spot itself are not cheap either. They dare to sell a grilled oyster for 20 yuan. If they want to do it, they should do it themselves first!"
As the saying goes, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked.
There is also a saying that goes, "What the superior likes, the subordinates will like even more."
The snack streets and restaurants run by the scenic area themselves rip off customers even more than they do. What qualifications do they have to criticize them for being unscrupulous?
When a crow lands on a black pig, no one should say who is black.
The scenic spot can make money by cheating tourists, so can't they make money too?
As for the public opinion on the Internet... no matter what it says, it can't stop everyone from making money!
…
After two days of the show, the audience was stunned.
I thought that after Xiao Xu’s evaluation, the scenic spot would be able to make some corresponding improvements, but what a surprise... The words were so nice - there will be no tolerance and severe punishment for any behavior of cheating and overcharging tourists!
In fact, it is still the same as before, there is no change at all!
But if you think about it carefully, you can understand the profound reason. After all, shouting slogans doesn't cost money, but publicity... If you really want to crack down on it, it will cost money. If the shops in the scenic area are all good quality and cheap, how much money will they lose?
If the owners of the shops in these scenic spots cannot make any money, how can they rent out the houses at high prices?
This is all real money.
You can let me say "crack down on tourist rip-offs", but if you want me to really not make money from tourists, that would be like asking for my life!
Originally... if Xiao Xu hadn't done the review first, many tourists wouldn't have noticed the many operations such as short weight on the scales and replacement of seafood in the kitchen. Now everyone has learned it, and after a day, there will be no crabs with eight legs intact in the entire scenic area.
As expected, the scenic spot in Resdao City was once again on the hot search list and became the focus of everyone's attention.
The program team gave their scores...and the scores given by the serious judges were extremely low.
As for the scores from tourists and online voting, they are even lower, so low that they are completely unbearable to watch.
Therefore, in the eyes of Shengshi Tangcheng Scenic Area, the favorite to win this championship and the nationally renowned hot island scenic area, received 2.1 points in the third issue of "Between Scenic Spots"!
The audience who called back expressed excitedly:
"At first, I heard people say that this place rips off customers, and I didn't believe it... But when I was eating seafood, I used my brains, and sure enough, they really replaced my seafood. I went to discuss it with them, but they refused to admit it, and they almost beat me up! How can there be such a store that beats people after being exposed! They must give it 0 points!"
"0 points! This is a rubbish tourist attraction! It's just rubbish! From the street vendors to the drivers to the hotels, everyone is ripping people off! They used to hide it, but now it's completely blatant!"
"Just open your mouth and say you can come or not! I will definitely not go there again in my life, I give it 0 points!
The host connected five calls, and the total score was only 3 points. No wonder the hot island scenic area only got a good score of 2.1 points in the end.
The audience was also filled with righteous indignation. In fact, they were not angry about the rip-off in Redao City. The Tea Horse Ancient Town also ripped off the tourists, but at least it had a score of 3.7. What really made the audience angry was -
Obviously, everything has been exposed, but people just don't take it seriously and continue to do as they please. You can expose me however you want. How am I before and how am I now?
The words "no tolerance and severe punishment for overcharging" are just lies to fool people. However, it is sincere to "never tolerate and severely punish those who "complain and expose" them.
They all said that they have 'zero complaints'.
They also said that anyone who maliciously attacks the scenic spot will be held accountable according to the law... What a great official power!
Just when Director Chen was getting overwhelmed, four of the six major sects in the scenic area criticized Xiao Xu's shameless behavior.
"mean!"
"You actually used such an unconventional trick!"
"He will do anything to win the championship! If we let Xiao Xu continue to do this, what will happen to us in the future?"
"He is so shameless and ruthless... He must be taught a lesson!"
