Rosé was stunned.

[ Locking down? What? If you didn’t say that I wouldn’t have paid much attention. Aren’t they deliberately locking the field like this? ]

As long as one ticket was sold for each pre-sale, the theater could not change the movie at will.

The reputation of “Fantasy God Chronicles” was already beyond redemption. Everyone knew that it was a bad film, and most people would choose to avoid it and watch other films.

However, according to Rosé, “Fantasy God Chronicles” had taken up quite a lot of show slots.

Lisa opened the related app and casually checked the showtimes of several nearby cinemas for the next few days. As expected, she found something wrong.

Many show slots for “Fantasy God Chronicles” had only sold one or two seats. Some were in the first row, some were in the corner, and even the show slots for the next four or five days were the same.

This was clearly a problem.

Because the industry had been very optimistic about “Fantasy God Chronicles”, they had arranged a lot of showtimes for them in advance. Now that the situation was not good, the cinemas wanted to switch those showtimes to show “Chasing the Light” instead, but they could not do it because those showtimes had been locked in.

[ Isn’t the producer for “Fantasy God Chronicles” too shameless? His own film is so bad that no one wants to watch it, yet he’s forcibly occupying these allocation resources. Even if he could not sell the tickets, he’s not willing to make room for other films? A lot of people want to watch “Chasing the Light” but there are not sessions available! ]

Rosé became even angrier when she thought about how she had searched for a long time yet had not managed to get a single ticket.

Lisa’s eyes drooped.

She did not need to think hard to know that this was Yu Media’s doing.

The reason for their actions was simple: they wanted to ensure that their screening schedules were kept to the greatest extent in order to avoid going offline early due to poor box office sales.

In addition, if the movie was locked down, they would have room to maneuver and increase the box office.

As long as they created the illusion that the tickets were sold out, even if no one was watching, they could count this part of the movie as their box office results.

This kind of behavior was actually very shameful, especially for “Fantasy God Chronicles” and Yu Media. It was simply too degrading.

However, they probably had no other choice now.

The total box office sales in the past two days had barely exceeded 30 million. Anyone could easily tell that their box office sales would only get worse in the future.

As a result, they could only rely on this method to barely maintain the last bit of their reputation that they had.

Lisa opened her Weibo and searched for news on “Fantasy God Chronicles” in real-time.

The page was refreshed, and almost all of them were complaining about how horrible the movie was. Lisa scrolled down and soon found that there were indeed people complaining about the number of showtimes for “Fantasy God Chronicles”.

This was especially true in some small and medium-sized cities. There were very few cinemas, so the audience had very few choices.

“Fantasy Gods Chronicles” were occupying a considerable amount of showtimes because of its tight screening space. Many people had gone to the theater, but found that there were no other movies to watch at that time. Thus, they had been forced to choose “Fantasy Gods Chronicles”.
