Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts
Chapter 748 The Old House of Gaunt (seeking a monthly pass)
Fudge was frightened by Anduin and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. He could now be said to be obedient to Anduin's words.
After all, when it comes to doing business, he can't keep up with the other party even if he tries to flirt with them. Fudge could never have imagined that the Magic Network, which had just been launched, would generate so much revenue.
Now he feels that the value of the Magic Network is probably more than the millions of Galleons claimed by Anduin. The Magic Broadcasting Company alone may be able to generate a stable income of about 100,000 Galleons per year.
Of course, Anduin did not expect that the current situation could progress so smoothly. This was also thanks to Voldemort's assistance.
If this guy hadn't brazenly committed suicide at the public trial, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to attract so many people to watch. Then the advancement and publicity of the Magic Network would definitely be much slower than it is now.
After this series of coincidences, the momentum of the Ministry of Magic and Anduin rose to a peak, and at the same time, the Magic Network spread rapidly through this popular trend.
In the next few days, the front pages of wizarding media in various countries were occupied by the magic network of Silver Flash Trading Company, even in the UK. You know, everyone was still immersed in the suicide of Voldemort yesterday!
Of course, in those newspapers, the Magic Network and Voldemort's death were also linked together, and it was specifically mentioned that the Silver Flash Trading Company had a video of the entire public trial.
Therefore, the British wizards quickly learned about the magic of the Magic Network due to the continuous publicity from the media and people who attended the press conference.
So for a week, local wizards came to Silver Flash Trading Company with various purposes. Not only did they have a large number of customers, but also many reporters, merchants, and media contacted Anduin, trying to cooperate with him.
This grand occasion lasted for more than half a month before gradually fading away. During this period, Anduin was extremely busy. He had almost completed the teaching work in the school and had to return to Diagon Alley to handle official duties.
Fortunately, after this period of consultation and negotiation, these business affairs were able to come to an end.
The harvest during this period is also quite satisfactory. Not to mention the communicator which was very popular as soon as it was launched, the magic projector alone is also very popular among wizards with the blessing of the magic radio station.
Now rooted in Silver Flash Magic Radio Station, 5 independent channels have been established.
Among them is the 'wireless channel' that was originally promised to be operated by Wizard Radio. The programs broadcast on it are currently mainly based on the past content of Wizard Radio.
There is also a 'news channel' contracted by local newspapers, mainly the Daily Prophet. As the name suggests, this channel mainly broadcasts various news contents. For this reason, several newspapers have recently been recruiting hosts and announcers.
At the same time, the 'Quidditch Channel' hosted by the British Quidditch Professional League has also reached an agreement with Silver Flash Trading Company. The broadcast content of this channel is quite simple, which is to broadcast the Quidditch League in real time. For this purpose, they started from Anduin.
A large number of video cameras were purchased to record the game.
As well as the 'Comprehensive Channel' reserved for other content by Anduin, the programs on this channel are currently relatively mixed, including broadcasts of 'Wizard Chess', 'Thunderbolt Explosion Cards', etc., as well as sports events other than Quidditch.
At the same time, it will also broadcast some song and dance performances by artists and groups signed by Silver Flash Commercial Company, etc. It is a temporarily saved channel. In the future, a series of splits will be carried out depending on the situation, and special "sports channels" and "entertainment channels" will be divided.
', but currently due to content restrictions, we can only fight together first.
The last channel is quite special. It is the 'Fairy Channel' independently hosted by the fairies, mainly Gringotts. The content played on this channel is basically all related to fairies.
After their channel was established, Anduin also watched it. Whether it was the program or the news, it was quite curious. For example, they actually opened a program to teach people how to count money and how to count money faster.
What's outrageous is that this program lasts for two hours, which is two hours worth of viewers. Anduin even suspected that these goblins opened such a channel not for entertainment but simply to show off how much they have.
Gold Gallon.
Originally, Anduin did not intend to allow these non-human creatures to open channels. This does not mean that he is racist. The main reason is that in the UK, the number of these goblins is not large, and the audience is very narrow. I am afraid that by then all advertising fees will be charged.
Not much.
But this group of rich people gave too much. They were actually willing to directly use elf silverware, ulim steel and refined mithril to pay for the channel rental fee. Anduin could only accept it with pinched noses.
In addition, there are many organizations and groups that have expressed their desire to open channels, and many of them are very generous.
But Anduin is very clear about quality over quantity. If anyone is willing to pay to open a channel, it will only lead to a large number of channels and programs with inferior content.
Only by strictly controlling quality can we reflect the preciousness of these channels and thereby increase our market influence.
At the same time, the idea of some groups setting up channels is not pure in nature, such as some pure-blood families. The channels they set up are just to promote pure-blood supremacy, and Anduin naturally cannot agree to it.
Once these channels were launched, they were immediately praised by the wizarding community. For them, it was very novel to be able to see with their own eyes and hear the news, Quidditch matches and entertainment programs with their ears.
You must know that in this era, even in the Muggle world, electrical appliances such as televisions have not been fully popularized, not to mention that the gap in their functions is quite huge.
Therefore, even many mixed-blood or Muggle wizards living in Muggle communities are very fond of this type of product. In almost half a month, magic projectors have been popularized in more than 50% of wizard families, and it is expected that 90% of them will be in less than half a year.
The above families will regard it as a daily necessity.
At the same time, due to the popularity of the radio station, it also attracted a large number of outstanding entertainment groups, including wizard bands such as the Weird Sisters and the Snitches, as well as various acrobatic troupes, circuses, etc. who came after hearing the news. There are many former Anduin
Never even heard of it.
For this reason, he was even thinking about whether to get ahead of the curve and create an entertainment program similar to a super talent show. By then, he might be able to create a few traffic stars, and they might be able to make a lot of money again.
However, all of this must be considered in the long term, including the dungeon project, which must continue to be tested.
Recently, Anduin is not in the mood to stay at the headquarters of Silver Flash Trading Company. This is mainly because of Vivian. Ever since the Magic Radio Station was launched, she has always wanted to create a dedicated mahjong channel.
Because of this, Vivian almost annoyed Anduin to death, chirping in his ears almost every day, which made him feel frightened every time he returned to Diagon Alley.
"boom!"
After a loud noise, Anduin's office door was violently kicked open by Vivian again.
"Anduin!" Vivian glared at her boss with a toothpick in her mouth, "Look what you have done? Even those goblins can have their own independent channels, why can't my mahjong club?
?And not only does it not have an independent channel, even the comprehensive channel that can play Wizard Chess cannot include mahjong content? Are you targeting me?"
"Wizard chess is an international sport after all, and it is somewhat different from mahjong. I advise you to save it." Anduin shook his head speechlessly, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking? You are so keen on mahjong.
, it’s nothing more than trying to make money by gambling. I recently heard from Qiqi that you opened the market privately in the mahjong club and predicted the winning or losing of the Quidditch match. Isn’t this just gambling in a crowd?"
Anduin found that Vivian didn't know how to learn anything good. Every day he was either studying playing cards or betting on football. He was a little afraid of her.
"Isn't this what I did because of the demands of those club members?" Vivian curled her lips with a guilty conscience, "After all, if there is demand, there will be supply. Didn't you always say that before? And if it weren't for the Quidditch channel
The reason why it's so popular is that there aren't so many people joining in the fun. What's the difference between this and you making a blind box? You don't know, I've made thousands of galleons recently just by opening the market."
"It's because you keep doing this that the second floor of the headquarters is so messy." Anduin sighed helplessly, "If you continue like this, someone will definitely complain, and the Ministry of Magic will not allow this kind of private betting.
!”
"Then you should find a way to formalize it!" Vivian had no intention of repenting at all. Instead, she persuaded Anduin, "Even if I don't do it, someone else will take over. I can still do it more or less."
Take control."
Then Vivian looked at Anduin with an unkind expression, "And that copy you made seems to have some thoughts in this regard. I saw that there is a gambling project in the project. Do you want to eat alone, and then take my mother?"
Dumped?"
Hearing this, Anduin averted his eyes with a guilty conscience, "Anyway, the gambling board you are making now is an illegal gambling game that has not been approved by the Ministry of Magic. I advise you to close it quickly, otherwise don't blame me if something goes wrong.
Didn't remind you."
"Hmph! Don't change the subject with me." Vivian said still reluctantly, "According to what you said, legal gambling can be carried out as long as it is approved by the Ministry of Magic? Have you already had plans in this regard?
Are you and that fat guy Fudge plotting something again?"
"Ahem, it's getting late. I still have important things to deal with. You should hurry up and get down to business. Anyway, just don't forget my warning."
After Anduin said something casually, he apparated and disappeared from his seat, leaving behind a very angry Vivian.
The next moment, Anduin reappeared in a deserted wilderness. He was really afraid of Vivian. Her sense of smell was as sharp as Hogg's. Now he could only run away to get rid of her harassment.
After shaking his head helplessly, Anduin raised his head and looked around. He told Vivian that he was in a hurry before, but he wasn't completely perfunctory.
This is a suburb 4-5 miles away from Little Hangleton, and it is also where he found out about the old Gaunt family home.
After finishing all the difficult official duties in Silver Flash Trading Company, he could finally take some time to look for the Resurrection Stone that Voldemort mentioned.
After testing the 'Echo Spell', it didn't take long for Anduin to find a half-hidden house among the tangled trees between two steep hillsides.
The walls of this house are covered with moss, the tiles on the roof are scattered, and the rafters inside are clearly exposed here and there.
At the same time, dense nettles grew around the house, and the tall nettles reached up to the windows. Those windows were very small and covered with thick layers of old dirt. There was a dead snake in the shape of an S nailed to the door of the cabin.
Symbolizing the pure blood of Slytherin.
After seeing his destination, Anduin carefully opened the door. After looking around, he found that the house had three very small rooms. The hall in the middle also served as the kitchen and living room. The whole house looked dirty and dirty.
"It seems that the Gunter family did not live well in their later years. It is obvious that the pure-blood family's residence is so shabby."
Anduin shook his head mockingly, and then activated his perception ability to search the house carefully. It seemed to him that Voldemort would definitely find a secret and hard-to-find place to store his treasures. There might be some mechanism or device in this room.
Maybe magic.
But Anduin soon became disappointed.
This is not to say that he has gained nothing, after all, he has long been prepared to search here for a long time.
To his disappointment, Anduin found a ring in a crack in the wall without much effort.
And because the process of finding it was so simple, Anduin once wondered if he had been deceived by Voldemort. How could anyone hide the Deathly Hallows so casually?
However, after sensing the faint magic power emanating from the diamond-shaped stone on the ring, Anduin knew that he had found the rightful owner.
Because the magic power constantly flowing from the ring is very light but extremely long-lasting. At the same time, the nature of this magic power is also very special, so even Anduin, the alchemist master, cannot determine its purpose.
The corners of Anduin's mouth curled up slightly at the thought, obviously he didn't expect to be able to find this sacred artifact so easily.
However, at this time, he did not pick it up immediately. Instead, he carefully cast various monitoring spells to detect whether there were any traps hidden on the ring.
Anduin, who was always cautious, would not touch a dark wizard's belongings rashly.
Sure enough, after inspection, Anduin quickly discovered that the ring contained an extremely hidden and powerful curse.
"Isn't this old guy Voldemort hoping that this curse will trick me, so he is unwilling to commit suicide?" Anduin sneered and teased, then took out a magic box and carefully put the ring in it.
In order to ensure that the ring itself would not be damaged, Anduin did not plan to use too rough methods to remove the curse on it. After all, he had never seen the Resurrection Stone before, and no one knew whether it would be damaged.
