When night falls, the lights come on, and a cluster of buildings in Hangzhou is dazzling under the colorful lights.
Outside the gymnasium of the Olympic Sports Center, there is a constant influx of fashionably dressed young men and women, a lively and extraordinary scene.
Their faces were full of excitement and joy, and what they held in their hands was the ticket to Jay Chou's concert.
"I spent 8,000 yuan to buy a ticket for a good position, and I live to watch Jay Chou's concert in this life!"
A little sister with pink hair said excitedly.
That's right, at this moment, what she is holding in her hand is not only a ticket, but also the memory of her entire youth.
Once upon a time, these songs accompanied her flamboyant and rebellious years, witnessed the throbbing of her first love, and soothed her sadness of separation......
Now, she can finally see this man's demeanor up close, and she is so excited that she can't sleep all night.
Not far away, a plainly dressed girl squatted on the ground and cried bitterly, and two expressionless security guards stood beside her.
"Please let me in, I spent more than 8,000 to buy a ticket, this is the money I have saved for a long time, how can you not let me in!"
The girl cried with tears all over her face and pleaded hoarsely, but the security guards did not move.
It turned out that because of the delay of the high-speed rail and the traffic jam on the road, she missed the ticket inspection time and could not enter the venue again according to the regulations.
"I also took a car from my hometown to Hangzhou for more than 10 hours, and this ticket is so important to me!"
The girl seemed to grasp the last straw, but fate was still merciless, and the door was closed in front of her.
At that moment, she only felt that her whole world had collapsed, and tears burst out of the embankment.
A ticket, a performance, so that the two girls have a different ending.
That night, Weibo was full of discussions about the concert.
Some people call it "absolutely worth the fare", while others think that "this price is unreasonable".
And the girl crying outside the door has become the focus of everyone's discussion.
"An ordinary wage earner can save 8,000 yuan to buy concert tickets, has something wrong with his brain?"
"It's just that spending so much money to watch a concert is better to travel or save it, it's too cost-effective. ”
"Such an expensive ticket, she must have bought it with all her wealth, people can understand idols, but spend money in moderation. ”
Soon, the term "spiritual poor" became a label for girls.
Everyone, you say that she consumes blindly, gets something for nothing, and does her own evil and bears the consequences.
Indeed, 8,000 yuan is a lot of money for many people, let alone just to participate in a recreational event.
But can we understand the girl's feelings?
Perhaps for her, the significance of this concert is extraordinary, it symbolizes her dreams, represents her youth.
This society always likes to use its own standards to demand from others, but really judge a person's behavior.
It should be her own heart, not the arbitrary assumptions of the outside world.
Some people say that spending 8,000 yuan to watch a concert is consuming memories and buying memories of youth.
Isn't that a lifestyle choice?
There are many people in the world who spend a lot of money to experience extreme sports, which can also be a luxury in the eyes of many people.
But for the person concerned, it is a way to achieve self-fulfillment.
Perhaps we should not define the "spiritual poor" without taking it upon ourselves, but understand that everyone has different attitudes and choices in life.
If that girl thinks it's important for her to see this concert, then what right do we have to deny her?
Of course, rational consumption is also important. But a person's spiritual world should not be measured only by money.
Everyone will have their own spiritual sustenance, which may be worthless to others, but meaningful to the person concerned.
We should not impose our own standards on others, nor should we judge one's heart.
This concert may mean something different to everyone.
Some people think it's a miracle in the history of concerts, and some people think it's not enough.
Some people are willing to shell out a sum of money to buy their own memories, and some people think it's a waste of money.
But we are not others after all, and what is most important to us can only be decided by ourselves.
