Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

"boss."

Seeing Adam arriving, the general manager of the cinema quickly said hello.

Adam waved his hand to interrupt the other party's continued greetings, and went straight to the point:

"How is the production of the first part of The Boy Who Lived going?"

"Um...it can be said that there are no problems at all in terms of the production schedule, and the production was even completed before the expected date."

After the general manager finished speaking, he couldn't help but take out a handkerchief and wipe the sweat from his forehead:

"It's just...there are other problems."

"oh?"

Adam frowned:

"What's the problem?"

"That...the character who appeared in the movie..."

The general manager couldn't help but look at Adam carefully as he spoke, always paying attention to Adam's face:

"Since this movie involves quite a few real people, everyone thinks it may cause some controversy in this regard..."

"Oh? Why didn't I know that there is such a thing as image rights in the wizarding world? The chocolate frog manufacturer must not close down... Oh, it seems that it is almost done now."

Adam realized belatedly that the chocolate frog was the flagship product of Honeydukes Candy Store, and the store was now his own and was renamed Fantasy Dessert Workshop.

After the entire Hogsmeade fell under Adam's control, the Fantasy Dessert Workshop went through two rounds of expansion. Now there are three stores in Hogsmeade alone, selling different products. The products of the previous Honeydukes Candy Shop are also back on the shelves. , focusing on a nostalgic style.

Although the taste is inferior to other products of Fantasy Dessert Workshop, many wizards are still willing to buy some to relive the taste of their childhood, especially since these candies have been out of print for several years.

Ambrosio was moved to tears as soon as the sales of these candies, which had declined several times before Honeydukes Candy Store was sold to Adam, were put on the shelves.

"This craze probably won't last long, but the popularity of encores...maybe we can do it more often, and get some season-limited, month-limited candies and the like."

You can even make a kind of century candy that is only sold once every hundred years. It will only be sold at the turn of the century. If it is made more exquisitely, it may even have commemorative collection value!

The year 2000 is just around the corner, and it seems to be very promising!

Just when Adam's mind had jumped to the business on the other side, the general manager here couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"This...even though I say this, it may still cause a lot of controversy."

"What's the point? Controversy is the only way to gain popularity. If it doesn't work, just change the name. If it doesn't work, just change the height, short, fat, thin, gender, skin color, etc."

Adam waved his hand casually, but the general manager just smiled bitterly.

After all, this is an adaptation of a real-life story. The wizarding world is only that big, and there are so many people who have experienced it personally. You can tell who is who just by asking. This kind of trick cannot really blur the identity.

The Muggle people will probably yell at you if they are provoked, but wizards can throw spells. Throwing a thunderbolt explosion at the cinema is no joke!

Even if Adam had all the power behind him, he couldn't stop him from pulling out the magic wand on the spot. They would be the ones to be bombed!

"Oh, okay, let me think about it..."

Adam no longer made things difficult for him, nor did he mess around, but seriously thought about the solution to this matter.

In fact, whether it is easy to solve or solve, a considerable part of the negative descriptions in the movie are basically facts. Adam recorded them truthfully, and it is not easy for those characters with less roles to jump out and refute.

After all, there are so many negative portrayals of people, and your role is so small. People may not notice you unless you stand out, but if you stand out, people will pay attention to your problems.

There are generally two types of people left. One type is people who do not have those negative behaviors in reality after Adam changed the plot, and the other type is people who have more scenes and are very eye-catching.

In addition, there is another special category that must be considered, that is, some personal secrets will be involved in the movie...

"It's not impossible to come to the door one by one."

Adam turned to look at the general manager on the side:

"Let's make a list of the people in the entire series of movies who have...these characteristics."

Since we want to solve it, we should solve all the problems involved in the entire series.

"Yes, I will make a list as soon as possible."

The general manager breathed a sigh of relief:

"I'll give you three days."

Adam nodded. The script he gave originally came with the names of the characters, and also gave the written records of the current world. Therefore, it was just a matter of human power to compare the two and select the people who met the requirements.

The general manager went straight to work, and Adam stretched out his hand to rub his brow.

Everyone else is easy to deal with. Even if Professor Gandalf's identity is not revealed, there are only a few people who dare not give Adam face due to his current status.

Although Adam has kept a very low profile, and more than half of the properties in Hogsmeade do not officially belong to him, he still does not hide the fact that the land belongs to him, including the fact that Adam accounted for about 70% of the ancient souls after the First World War in Gringotts. Pavilion.

In addition to real estate, there are desserts, entertainment, food, daily necessities, magical animals, magical plants... Although there are few properties officially attributed to Adam, there are some from all walks of life.

Especially magical plants, which is the monopoly industry exposed by Adam. He has almost monopolized all magical plant-related industries in the British wizarding world, including but not limited to potion materials and other aspects.

Under the vicious price competition with an average discount of 30% and a minimum discount of 10% at the most intense time, all competitors were squeezed out by Adam - after all, their selling prices are lower than your costs, and their output is higher than yours. Who can withstand this?

Of course, after squeezing out competitors, although the sales price of Adam's store returned to normal levels, he did not raise prices due to monopoly, which is simply the conscience of the industry.

By the way, the only fish in the magical plant industry that was not squeezed out by Adam was the greenhouse at Hogwarts.

Back then, Professor Sprout thought that the greenhouse he applied for might be discounted, so he filled in a little more. As a result, Professor Gandalf approved all the greenhouses applied for by Professor Sprout with a wave of his hand, plus the greenhouses applied for by other newly appointed professors of herbology...

Now the greenhouses at Hogwarts have overcapacity to the point that all the teachers and students in the school cannot digest them, so they have to start selling them to the outside world.

In general, just on the surface, Adam's business empire has been developing rapidly during the economic depression caused by Voldemort's rampage. Now it is a rising capital star, and it is also a monopoly of a very important industry such as magical plants.

But even with such an identity, there are still people in the wizarding world who dare not give him face, and he has a high proportion of roles in the movie.

"Professor Snape... If that past is not exposed, he will be a purely negative role, but if it is exposed..."

The picture is too beautiful, Adam dare not think about it.

With Professor Snape's personality, he is afraid that he will rush directly to the principal's office and cast a killing curse on him, and then jump directly from the window on the eighth floor.

Although Adam can ignore Professor Snape's killing curse, he can't just ignore Professor Snape as a human being. Hogwarts is currently short of talents in potion studies.
