The ancient city tourism police brigade has established a long-term cooperation mechanism with the scenic area company, regularly reporting the number of tourists. When approaching the peak, the ancient city tourism police brigade will immediately activate the emergency plan for preventing crowding and trampling accidents, take measures for remote diversion and nearby evacuation, and do a good job in publicity and shouting to win the understanding and support of tourists and avoid causing panic among personnel. Recently, the reporter learned from the Ministry of Public Security that with the increasing demand of the people for cultural and tourism activities, some popular cultural and artistic performances, sports competitions, museums, and scenic spots have experienced the phenomenon of "difficult to obtain tickets", which has led to the problem of "scalpers" scalping tickets, which has been repeatedly banned and strongly reflected by the public. The Ministry of Public Security attaches great importance to it. On the basis of deploying local public security organs to strengthen normal crackdown, investigation, and prevention and control governance, it has recently specially deployed national public security organs to carry out a one-year special work to crack down on and rectify the illegal activities of "scalpers" and ticket scalping, effectively safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the people and maintaining good social order, and enhancing the sense of gain and satisfaction of the people. The Ministry of Public Security requires that regional, departmental, and police resources be coordinated, and efforts should be made simultaneously online and offline to crack down on and control the situation. Comprehensive measures should be taken to strengthen prevention, control, and governance, and to severely crack down on a group of professional "scalpers" who engage in ticket scalping illegal criminal gangs. A group of illegal criminal gangs who use online "cheating" software to carry out ticket grabbing should be thoroughly investigated and severely punished. We must resolutely cut off the interest chain of collusion between internal and external "scalpers" who engage in ticket scalping, and effectively rectify a group of illegal and irregular online ticket scalping platforms. At the same time, we will adhere to promoting governance through cases and systematic governance, strengthen cooperation and cooperation with relevant departments such as cyberspace, culture and tourism, sports, market supervision, cultural relics, etc., improve and perfect the long-term linkage mechanism, combine technology with management, crackdown and education, leverage the empowerment of big data technology, achieve full chain prevention and governance of ticket sales, circulation, inspection, after-sales rights protection and other links, promote long-term and sustainable governance, and resolutely eliminate the chaos of "scalpers" reselling tickets. The purpose of cracking down on ticket scalping is to continue to crack down on "scalpers" 'illegal occupation, scalping of appointment vouchers for tourist attractions and other travel related crimes strongly reflected by the masses, and to fully maintain the order of the capital's tourism market. Recently, the Beijing police broke down a criminal gang that illegally seized appointment vouchers for popular tourist attractions relying on travel agencies, and detained six suspect, effectively deterring such illegal and criminal acts. In September this year, the Beijing police, together with relevant departments, conducted an investigation and judgment on the abnormal reservation situation of popular scenic spots, and found that Wang and others used software to seize the illegal clues of reservation vouchers. In accordance with the unified deployment of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the General Brigade of the Ring Food and Drug Brigade, together with the relevant police and Dongcheng Branch, carried out special investigation and crackdown. After fully mastering the criminal evidence, they arrested and arrested on September 18, and detained six suspect according to law. According to the investigating police, the criminal gang that was dismantled this time recruited personnel to form a specialized ticket grabbing team. They used ticket grabbing software to seize reservation vouchers for some popular tourist attractions in Beijing, and sold them to tourists for tens to hundreds of yuan, in order to illegally profit. The illegal behavior of this gang seriously affects the normal ticketing order of the scenic area and the legitimate rights and interests of tourists.

Strengthen the collection of clues, improve the evidence chain, and extend the crackdown on related illegal crimes against organizers, internal personnel of units, ticketing platforms, travel agencies, and others involved in illegal ticket scalping for profit. For those who forge tickets or resell fake tickets, as well as those who commit fraud by selling fake tickets or vouchers, the source must be thoroughly investigated one by one, and the entire chain must be thoroughly penetrated. For ticketing agents and agents on online platforms, organizing personnel to snatch and book tickets on behalf of others, as well as "scalpers" who engage in ticket scalping around the scene, it is necessary to investigate and crack down on them in accordance with the law and regulations based on the number of scalpers, profit situation, and social harm caused.

The tourism departments in Pingyao, including culture and tourism, public security, market, transportation, and emergency response, will work together to quickly handle tourism related police disputes, provide comprehensive and detailed service guarantees, and continue to promote the high-quality development of Pingyao's cultural and tourism industry," Hou Dajun told reporters. In addition, the Ancient City Tourism Police Brigade utilizes multiple new media platforms to promote and set up real name ticketing channels on the official websites of Pingyao Ancient City Scenic Area and Youjian Pingyao to prevent fraud and illegal transactions. "Jinzhong scenic spots implement the first ticket free policy for students and teachers of resident colleges and universities. We found that very few staff members use their own names and ID number numbers to register and generate electronic ticket QR codes in the designated" Shanxi Best Choice "small program, and then sell them to tourists to Pinglai. In violation of the relevant provisions of the Law on Public Security Management and Punishment, they are suspected of reselling valuable tickets and are detained according to law." Hou Dajun said.

The Ministry of Public Security requires that, based on the actual situation of the case, it is necessary to deeply analyze the loopholes in key links and aspects, actively promote relevant departments to carry out network inspections, optimize intelligent ticketing, strengthen technical interception, enhance on-site inspections, and continuously adjust and improve prevention and control measures. We must adhere to the principle of using cases to promote governance, promote the strengthening of industry self-discipline, improve management measures, implement platform governance, scientifically increase supply, effectively deepen linkage rectification, and prevent the spread of "scalpers" and disorderly ticket trading from causing real harm. We should actively collaborate with relevant departments such as cyberspace, culture and tourism, sports, market supervision, and cultural relics to establish and improve a long-term working mechanism for clue reporting, execution coordination, joint prevention and control, and collaborative governance. We should promote the formation of a comprehensive prevention and control system and governance capacity with departmental linkage and top-down integration. The police remind tourists to choose legitimate channels when booking tickets, consciously resist "scalpers", and jointly safeguard a good order for ticket purchasing. Once "scalpers" are found illegally seizing, reselling scenic spot reservation tickets, vouchers and other illegal criminal clues, please report to the public security organs in a timely manner.
