There are no long queues for the tickets as the six-month-long event is 10 months away, said Qian Chenhui, a manager at the Bank of Communications' Shanghai branch.

Buyers don't have to bring their ID cards as there is no limit as how many can one person buy at one time.

The sale of group tickets started on March 27. So far, about three million group tickets have been sold.
