Chapter 0188: I’m Enough Alone
The entire hall was packed with people, there were tourists downstairs who hadn’t come up, and new tourists kept entering at the entrance of the building.
Almost ten o’clock, the person in charge of the Tanto Hospital finally walked out, not very tall, with a flat haircut, looking around thirty years old.
Behind him were two models wearing high-cut nurse uniforms, their faces purposely painted ghastly white, their seductive eyes discharging electricity everywhere.
The person in charge tried the megaphone, then stood on the stage at the entrance of the haunted house, “Thanks to everyone’s favorites, the Tanto Sick Hospital has always maintained ……”
Chen Ge’s eyes swept past the two models, he didn’t bother to listen to the person in charge’s official manner of opening remarks, and in his heart, he was calculating that the next time his haunted house did an event, he would also design a good-looking and sexy uniform for Xu Wan.
The person in charge pulled two or three minutes before getting to the important part: “We will optimize the scene of the haunted house once every six months, hire a professional team from abroad to design it, and all the scare points are upgraded and replaced, and I can tell you very responsibly that the Tanto Sick House is going to be more scary than all the haunted houses on the market! We are committed to the pursuit of the most extreme horror, unlike some haunted houses, claptrap, relying on marketing and water army on the network to promote. Thinking they are smart, they actually put the cart before the horse, and there is a large group of people who follow the trend and tout it. Honestly, I think their behavior is ridiculous!”
Chen Ge had gotten a little impatient listening to this, he moved a few more steps forward, there were too many people, and it took him half a day of walking to find the ticket counter, “I want a ticket.”
”Have you made a reservation online?”
”No.”
”I’m sorry, we’re all booked out for today, why don’t you wait for the extra show this afternoon?”
”Sold out?”
The person in charge on the high platform was still speaking, “If the haunted houses on the market are the first generation haunted houses, our Tanto Hospital is the fourth generation new haunted house that combines high technology and doubles the horror index infinitely! Today is the first day of our opening in Jiujiang, in order to give you a clear understanding, we will randomly select four visitors to wear pickups and portable dynamic ECG monitors to enter it for experience! Everyone will judge how scary our haunted house really is through the external speakers and the electrocardiogram on the projector!”
Before the person in charge finished speaking, the atmosphere in the crowd below was on fire, and it was not clear if it was a pre-arranged TO.
”Each ticket has a number, so we’ll draw them according to the number.” The person in charge signaled towards the side of the ticket counter, and the staff in the ticket counter understood and began to draw.
Chen Ge watched all of this, the other party was holding himself up by stepping on his haunted house, and this was something he couldn’t tolerate.
”Wait!” Chen Ge raised his hand and walked directly towards the high platform, “You just said that your haunted house is scary, and that other haunted houses are just relying on marketing and water armies to clamor for attention, which I don’t agree with.”
The person in charge frowned, if it wasn’t for too many people, he probably would have just called security.
”I’m the owner of Jiujiang Western Suburbs House of Horrors, the same haunted house that you maligned on your official website, and the day before yesterday I had a live broadcast that was watched by 600,000 people.”
Chen Ge walked to the high stage as if nothing had happened, and after the crowd saw his face, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
”Boss?!”
Chen Ge searched for the voice and found Heshan and a white-clothed Gao Ruxue standing not far away.
”Why did you guys run here?” Chen Ge was slightly stunned, Heshan’s behavior was tantamount to “funding the enemy”: “Why don’t you go to the western suburbs to find me if you want to play haunted house?”
Heshan was in a state of agony, pondering how to speak, he couldn’t say in front of Tanto Hospital – your haunted house is too scary, we have nightmares all night, and now we’re here in other haunted houses to lighten up our moods.
This scene also caught the eyes of the head of Tanto Hospital, who had recognized Chen Ge: “It seems that your haunted house in the western suburbs isn’t too popular, and even your own friends won’t go to it. Since you want to come for a study tour, then count you in, and we’ll randomly select three more spots.”
The person in charge was very shrewd, they had denigrated Chen Ge’s haunted house on the official website, they obviously knew that Chen Ge existed, and now they were taking the initiative to let Chen Ge into the haunted house, their intentions were obvious. As long as Chen Ge made a fool of himself in the haunted house, then he could use it to publicize and forcefully compete for customers from the Western Suburbs House of Horrors.
He actually had the same idea as Chen Ge, both wanted to take the other’s visitors for themselves.
Chen Ge’s haunted house was directly on the hot search because of his recent live broadcast, but this heat didn’t last long, probably only lasting less than a week, while the Tanto Sick House wasn’t as famous as Chen Ge’s haunted house in Jiujiang, but they were famous in the circle of domestic paranormal haunted house enthusiasts, with a large number of iron fans like Su Su.
”Here, you guys put the pickup and heart monitor on him.” Two models wearing high-cut nurse uniforms walked over to Chen Ge, “Now we’ll start drawing the remaining three experiencers.”
”I don’t think that’s necessary.” Chen Ge waved his hand, “It’s only difficult to challenge a haunted house alone, if you guys can scare me, I’ll admit that I’m not as good as your haunted house on my own haunted house’s official website homepage for a month on top.”
The head of the Tanto Hospital was heartened by Chen Ge’s words, but vaguely felt that there was something wrong, he was very cautious: “To what extent is it considered to be scared?”
”Didn’t you guys install a portable heart monitor? A person’s normal heart rate when walking is sixty to a hundred, and after being startled, the oxygen content within the blood will decrease rapidly and the heart rate will double.” Chen Ge looked at the head of the Tanto Hospital and said calmly, “As long as my heart rate exceeds one hundred count me as a loser.”
”It’s a deal.” The person in charge didn’t give Chen Ge a chance to change his mind and immediately agreed, not to mention fear and strenuous activities, even when trotting, his heart rate could exceed one hundred, so in his opinion, Chen Ge was bound to lose.
”Don’t be in a hurry to agree, if I lose, I will admit on the front page of the official website that I’m not as good as you guys, but if it’s you guys who lose?”
”Don’t worry, if we lose, we will also admit on the official website that we are inferior to your haunted house.” The person in charge pointed at the tourists present, “Everyone can testify for you.”
”Actually, I have another small request.” Chen Ge had a plain and simple smile on his face, “I think you have some misunderstandings about my haunted house, and I hope that your group can visit my haunted house then as well. I’ve recently added a new scene there that no visitors have tried yet.”
”Okay, no problem.” The person in charge agreed in a single breath, earning goodwill in front of the many tourists.
The only people on the scene were Tsuruyama and Gao Ruxue who had intriguing expressions on their faces, and they carried some sympathy as if they saw themselves once in the head of the Tanto Hospital.
