Today (May 9th), "Mayday Ticket Grabbing" swiped the entire network. In this lively ticket grabbing battle, a phenomenon worthy of attention is that many Mayday fans have loudly called for a resolute boycott of scalpers from the very beginning, not only self-made Emoticon packs, multiple postings to criticize, when some netizens posted "accepting a slight premium", there were fans who left messages to stop it. I hope everyone can boycott scalpers from the source.
In fact, a few days before Mayday tickets were issued, fans shouted angrily the slogan "I'd rather stand at the gate of the Bird's Nest than let scalpers make money". Before that, some fans discovered that some platforms even had a lot of group tickets "surrogate shooting" products.
Since the beginning of the new year, all kinds of performances and concerts have exploded, but scalpers reselling tickets are becoming more and more chaotic. A large number of tickets have been hoarded here, and the double premium of scalper tickets has become the norm, and there have been many stunned sky-high tickets.
Where do scalpers sell concert tickets? According to media reports, in addition to regular tickets, there are scalpers who obtain gifts and reserved tickets from the organizers and insiders of the ticketing platform, use software technology to hoard tickets in large quantities, and are even suspected of fraud. In recent years, the organizers and ticketing companies have continuously raised the technical threshold and optimized the real-name ticketing mechanism, but the phenomenon of scalping is still repeated, and even more rampant.
"Resolutely don't let scalpers make more money", this time the collective appeal of fans is the accumulation of anger for a long time. If you indulge in a premium of hundreds of thousands, it may be more exaggerated and arrogant next time. Scalping by scalpers not only hurts the hearts and minds of fans Purse, hurt the entertainers who carefully prepared the show, and disrupted the normal performance market. Everyone’s toughness of boycotting loudly and standing up to chase stars is worthy of praise. However, the elimination of ticket scalping must not rely solely on the self-consciousness of fans. We look forward to the joint participation and governance of multiple parties, cracking down on illegal activities in accordance with the law, and further regulating the order of the performance market.
