Is there something fishy about the phenomenon of taking pictures of the elderly for free, which is popular in rural areas?

Often seen in rural areas, it is said that someone must drive together, stop at the village head, take out the horn, record the sound, and take pictures of the 60-year-old man for free. Old people are free to listen to lectures in other people's booths, and they are very enthusiastic. Most people have to take pictures of many people and queue up. Today, within one week after the photographer completes the registration process, the audience will send pictures.

I don't know. Is it really free? After careful inquiry, I realized that most old people still save money. Why is this marketing activity so popular? I think businessmen have grasped two psychological points of the rural elderly. One is the curious trend, and the other is the cheap psychology.

The trend of curiosity. When people arrive at that station, they will curl up, the photos will be displayed on the computer, their faces will be their own, and they can choose their own clothes, just like cheongsam, Chinese tunic suit, western style and even the back. You can select walls in a variety of ways. We may feel that there are no special functions that can be synthesized by computer, but for the old people who have been stationed in small towns all their lives, I have seen these photos. Even the face is young. This is curiosity and happiness. The effect of photography made the old people very satisfied. They all laughed at each other. Although the photos are free, there is a premise to make the elderly happy, but the merchants will charge the photo frame fee, plastic fee and so on, but they are very happy.

Take advantage. As we all know, everyone has the concept of being greedy for petty gains, and the elderly in rural areas are no exception. The merchant said that he would take photos under the banner of free, but I heard that it was free, so I didn't dare to try. Even if you have doubts at first, you will see people taking more beautiful photos. If you are free, you can completely let go of the border. After the shooting incident, the villagers said that one place, one place, ten places, ten places, rural people also like to follow the trend. As long as someone pays the businessman to process the photos, everyone will be together.

According to estimates, the cost of photo frames is actually less than 10 yuan, and the elderly often have to pay hundreds of yuan, making considerable profits. Some people say that it is voluntary, not forced to save money. I don't agree with this view. The countryside is just a city. Most old people in this village have never seen the world. If you want to know something new, you can shoot people over 60 at will, but this goodwill is based on deception and has changed.
