Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge
Jay Chou's "Carnival" world tour will be held in Fuzhou from May 16 to 19, 2024. However, recent issues such as ticket pre-sales, ticket purchase time, refund rules and ticket prices for the concert have aroused widespread doubts among netizens. Some netizens criticized that the organizer pre-sold tickets half a year in advance, with a minimum ticket price of 500 yuan and a maximum of 1200 yuan, and the infield ticket price was as high as 1600-2000 yuan. In addition, some netizens pointed out that the refund fee for this concert is as high as 30%, which seems too high for people who cannot predict whether other arrangements will affect the performance itinerary in the next six months.
In this regard, the organizer Fujian Province China Television Communication *** said that all tickets are on the platform, and the handling fee is deducted by the platform and has nothing to do with the organizer. Damai's official customer service emphasized that each project has its own ticket purchase rules and refund rules, and the handling fee is the result of multi-party confirmation.
Regarding the pre-sale time, many netizens said that they could not understand why the pre-sale time of concert tickets was advanced by half a year. In their opinion, this practice puts a lot of financial pressure on the audience, because once the ticket is purchased, it means that the audience needs to pay for the future event half a year in advance. In addition, it also brings unnecessary distress to people's lives as they may not be able to adjust their plans because of the upfront payment.
Moreover, netizens also questioned the ticket price. The minimum ticket price is 500 yuan, and the maximum ticket price can reach 2000 yuan, which is considered unreasonable to a certain extent. A lot of people think this is too high, especially considering the difference between the grandstand ticket price and the infield price. This ** difference makes people feel unfair, and they think that everyone should have a chance to play a reasonable *** Jay Chou concert.
In addition, the refund rules are also an important aspect that has sparked controversy. According to the information on the Damai app, the refund rules stipulate that tickets can be refunded unconditionally within a certain period of time after purchase, but once this time is exceeded, a handling fee of up to 30% will be charged for refunds. This kind of regulation makes people feel very unhappy, and they think that this high fee is unreasonable, especially considering that they will face huge financial losses if they are unable to attend the live ** concert for any reason.
However, the explanation given by the organizers and ticketing platforms for these doubts and controversies is that they have the right to make such regulations. They believe that the early pre-sale is to give the audience enough time to prepare and plan, and the refund rules are to prevent malicious ticket speculation and scalping. However, these explanations did not quell the doubts and dissatisfaction of netizens.
Overall, the controversy over the rules for buying and refunding tickets for Jay Chou's "Carnival" World Tour reflects the audience's strong demand for fair and reasonable ticket prices and a convenient ticket purchase and refund process. This also reminds us that in future large-scale events, organizers and ticketing platforms need to pay more attention to the needs and rights of audiences, and formulate more reasonable and fair rules.
