Chapter 168: Scalpers
"It's okay, but I feel a little more gloomy, and those hair wounds are more detailed and textured!" Zhou Shaoming frowned, thought for a while, and then pointed to the computer and said to Scott Faller.
"Okay." The programmer of ILM sat on the side, nodded and said, the specific hands-on process was completed by this programmer.
Scratching his head, Zhou Shaoming sat on the computer desk, thinking of Avril's question again.
"What's wrong? Is there anything you haven't explained? Scott Faller poured two cups of coffee and handed one to Zhou Shaoming, looking at his thoughtful appearance, he thought he had any thoughts about the movie, and his professional sensitivity made him ask immediately.
"Oh, it's not Resident Evil, it's not those zombies! Rather, an angelic girl! Haha, don't get me wrong, it's Avril, the little heroine of my last movie. Zhou Shaoming took a sip of hot coffee, looked at Scoltelale's face and hurriedly explained.
"Ha, I know her, and now her music is playing all over the United States, that's really a little witch, and people of my age like her a little!" Scott Faller smiled and sang in a strange voice.
"Oh brother, don't sing, Avril sings for money, you sing to death!" Zhou Shaoming listened to the incomplete voice, and almost sprayed Scott Faller's face with coffee.
Little Witch Avril, whose first record sold three million copies in North America in just over two months, has been certified triple platinum, and this number is still soaring, and it can't be stopped.
Teenagers all over the United States are crazy about this 17-year-old girl's song, Avril as Zhou Shaoming expected, threw away the title of the singer girl, dressed up nonsensical, picked up the electric guitar and the cool generation of rock, like a raging tsunami, swept the whole world.
"Alright, Scott. Avril said she wanted me to give her a birthday gift. Zhou Shaoming stopped laughing and said thoughtfully.
"Sports cars? Or cake? Stetfaler laughed.
"If that's it, it's easy to do, she wants me to give her a creative idea, so that her first singing club will be hot and high!" Zhou Shaoming said with a wry smile.
"Oh, creativity! I don't know songs, so I'd better get my computer! Scott Faller's eyes widened and he ran away.
"Hey! Unrighteous guy," Zhou Shaoming looked at Scott Faller and ran away from afar. Hung his head in frustration and stared at the computer in a daze.
Creativity, creativity, what creativity can the singers have?
Zhou Shaoming looked at an unused computer next to him and racked his brains.
This computer, how did it cut to the screensaver? Zhou Shaoming looked at the slowly changing screensaver, and suddenly thought of a video he had watched before he crossed over, slapped his thigh excitedly, and shouted: "Creativity! Creativity is computer technology! ”
Finding Stekofal who was hiding on the side, Zhou Shaoming danced and said his thoughts, and when the guy couldn't digest it for a while, he added countless props to express the perfect idea clearly.
"Oh my God! What a unique idea! I never thought it would be like this! Scott Faller's eyes were about to fall, and he even wondered if Zhou Shaoming in front of him was an alien, how could he think of this method.
"How? Technically, it should be fine, right? Zhou Shaoming looked triumphantly at Scott Faller, whose eyes were full of adoration, and lit a cigar.
"Of course there is no problem! It's hard to get creative! This kind of little kiss has no difficulty for professionals, and there are programmers from ILM here! Grab just one and you're done! Scott Faller winked slyly at the programmers who were working on the side, Nunu.
Zhou Shaoming laughed, patted Scott Faller's buttocks, and said excitedly: "Then what are you waiting for!" Let's get started! ”
The Avril Lavry Club's theatrical film was filled with fans from all over the country, mostly young people in their sixteens, seventeens and twenty-threes, anxiously crowding the ticket booths, waving bills in hopes of buying a ticket.
The choir girl in the cattle herding class, as pure and beautiful as an angel, at this moment and the uninhibited dress, exaggerated smoky makeup, and the popular rock girl all over the world are one, and the birth is more than the original world of Avril rock frenzy, more attractive to the attention of boys and girls, infatuated, can not be themselves.
Now, it is her first singing club, and as her fans, some people even flew from far away Xia Weiyi to see her for themselves.
Dirk is a 16-year-old ordinary American boy who has been in love with Avril Lavigne since he met her in the movies, and the walls of his home are covered with posters stolen from movie theaters.
After toiling with housework, helping people deliver newspapers, and even running to the car wash after school to help people wash their cars, Dirk finally saved enough dollars and came to the scene of the song club early, hoping to buy a ticket to the song club.
But the joy that came before I came turned into fear that I couldn't face.
"I want a ticket, a ticket for any seat!" Finally squeezed into the front row, the sweaty Dirk stuck his head out from under the armpit of another tall boy, and roared a little hoarsely.
"Sorry, kid, tickets are sold out!" The conductor shrugged his shoulders regretfully, then put up a sign that read "Ticket Sales" and slammed the ticket window shut.
Sold out? Sold out!
The queue erupted in huge dissatisfaction and sighs, and everyone's faces were filled with chagrin and sadness.
Dirk stared blankly at the closed ticket window, his heart was like night attacking, and the whole person only felt that the sky was falling, and endless disappointment surrounded him tightly.
"Open the door, open the door! I want to buy a ticket! The fans on the side roared hoarsely, slamming their fists against the iron railing of the ticket window as if they didn't feel any pain at all.
"Open the door, open the door!" It may be that the crazy fans have given everyone some hope, and countless people shouted after them, and the ticket window was smashed with fists for a while.
Dirk, whose face was dejected, also shouted, and there was some hope in his heart.
"Everyone, everyone! Tickets are sold out! Please go home! Avril will have a concert soon, and everyone will be able to buy tickets by then! The staff at Alysta Records shouted into the crowd with a loudspeaker.
At the moment, no one thought that Avril's popularity would explode to such an extent, the full 5,000 tickets were sold out in less than half an hour, and there were more than 30,000 young people around the door, all of whom were extremely disappointed and couldn't accept it with satisfaction.
If there was a stampede or something, Alysta Records would not be able to eat and walk around.
But in the eyes of fans, this kind of appeasement is like adding fuel to the fire, and countless people scolded and threw away the flowers in their hands for Avril, well-dressed gifts, and even beautiful and cute plush toys.
"We want tickets!"
"We're going in!"
"We're going to see Avril!"
"We want Avril, Avril, Avril!"
Countless boys and girls blushed and shouted in unison.
The staff of the Alysta Records Company saw that the crowd was angry, and they were beaten with bags by flying flowers and Coke, so they hurriedly shouted a few words, and then threw down the loudspeaker and slipped away, and if they stayed any longer, it was not a doll that was thrown over, and it was possible to build a room with bricks.
A large number of security guards surrounded the entrance.
In the loud shouts, the fans surrounding the door were reluctant to leave for a long time, and even many fans saw that there was no hope of entering the venue, and their grief flowed into a river, first sobbing and crying, and then spread their hands and sat on the side of the road and began to cry.
For a while, the crying was loud, and some die-hard fans cried hoarsely, but they were still staring at the entrance door with red eyes, hoping that a miracle would happen.
A miracle has finally happened!
A black man wearing a peaked cap, a huge gold necklace hanging around his neck, and covered in tattoos, with seven or eight equally hanging, fierce-eyed little brothers, suddenly jumped into the back compartment of a pickup truck and shouted, "Tickets to Avril's Singers' Club!" I have 10 of them, who wants them? ”
It turns out that there are scalpers in every country!
The golden ticket in his hand, like a torch burning in the night, attracted everyone's attention!
"I want it, I want it!"
The fans who were still sitting on the side of the road and crying non-stop just now swept in like a surging wave, surrounding the scalpers, and countless outstretched arms held colorful bills and shouted desperately.
Dirk wiped his tears, and immediately found the scalper with the ticket, ran over like crazy, seized the best terrain, and shouted with all his strength with the banknote: "Give me one, give me one!" ”
After a few sounds, Dirk's voice became completely hoarse, but he didn't pay attention at all, and he didn't even have time to wipe away the remaining tears on his face, and continued to slap the pickup car with his voice hoarse, hoping to attract the attention of the scalpers.
“**! Don't squeeze in! "Fortunately, this scalper took seven or eight little brothers and pushed down the boy who wanted to grab the carriage, and they were also a little panicked, they have never seen such crazy people after being a scalper for so many years.
"Hurry up and sell! If we don't sell it again, we will be eaten by them! A black man whispered to the black man with the ticket, and then pushed a girl who was about to climb into the car with all his might.
"A thousand dollars a piece! Give money and sell it! There are not many tickets, so I want speed! The black man with the ticket was sweating profusely, watching in horror as countless people heard the news in the distance, his eyes were full of cannibalism, and he ran over like crazy and hurriedly shouted.
"A thousand dollars!" Dirk gasped.
I worked for half a month to save more than 300 dollars, and the tickets for the singer's club were 50 dollars a piece, Dirk originally thought it was enough, but I didn't expect this scalper to be so hateful that he directly raised the ticket price by 20 times!
