Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 236 Hogwarts Newspaper Office
Connor carried a few arcade machines into the Room of Requirement through a special way (four-dimensional pocket). After that, there were obviously more little wizards who usually came here for entertainment.

For example, the two brothers Fred and George, now exploring the castle and the Forbidden Forest are almost becoming their sidelines, and they run to the Room of Requirement after class, completely turning into the appearance of teenagers addicted to the Internet.

"Connor, let's get a few more machines into the school!"

"That's right! It's interesting to play with multiple people! There's not enough time for just these few machines."

The twins, who were having another blast, gave way to Lee and Roger, and came over to complain to Connor.

Connor was writing and drawing on a piece of paper, and said without looking up: "Have you reviewed your elective courses? Have you finished your homework this week? Have you previewed next week? I brought this arcade machine in for everyone Relaxing once in a while is not to make you lose your mind."

"Please, this is just the beginning of school." Fred spread his hands: "Why not take it easy? Life is not all about studying, Connor."

"Isn't studying a relaxing thing?" Connor put down his pen and said, "Okay, here are the rules for the third Pokemon Showdown, Fred, please spread the word, Gryffind I'm counting on you guys over there."

Fred took the paper Connor handed over and said, "We used to hold small competitions every year. Why did you make such a big fuss this time, Connor?"

"It's an experiment. As you know, Lake Chess will soon open up the Floo powder transmission market throughout Europe. We plan to hold the first [Monster Cup] competition across Europe next year. I want to make this competition a reality." An international competition!" Connor said, shaking his fist:

"Through this school competition, I can carefully observe the various problems that will be encountered in the competition, and formulate a set of new rules suitable for large-scale competitions. This can also be regarded as a warm-up for the [Monster Cup]."

"Cool! Are you going to make the monster game into something like the Quidditch World Cup!? Sounds like fun!" exclaimed George.

Connor nodded and said: "That's right, my plan has been made, and the promotion of the [Monster Cup] has already begun to prepare, and the school's monster card match will end before Halloween, and wait until the New Year. The [Monster Cup] regional screening competition can now be held!"

Fred carefully read a piece of competition rules, and said: "In the preliminary competition, two representatives from each grade and each college are selected, a total of 56 people, and then the colleges of each grade compete against each other. The final four, will Hogwarts' [Monster King] be selected in the finals? It's interesting, really interesting."

"Then we can compete too!" George said excitedly.

"Of course, all students can participate. Your task is to fool around more and encourage students to participate. The rewards are very generous!"

". The representative of the advanced grade can get a random monster gold card from the commonly used card pool; the top fourteen can get any limited edition monster card; the top three have more precious customized rewards. The final interpretation of this event belongs to Laike Chess. ..." After Fred finished reading, he raised his head and asked, "What is a precious custom reward?"

"The special commemorative card is made by me alone. This is an opportunity to make myself a monster card!" Connor emphasized, knocking on the table.

"Cool~!!!"x2
"The champion of this competition must be mine!" x2
The twins turned their heads sharply.

Fred: "Mine!"

George: "Mine!"

Then the two wrestled together.

"." Connor felt his head hurt a little: "I said, you two, if you want to fight, wait until you finish the work for me, okay?"

The twins quarreled for a while before subsiding. Fred straightened his collar and said, "There's no need to worry about this. It's just something we yelled at in the lounge."

"That. Connor." After a while, Fred and George sat next to Connor, looking malicious.

"What do you two want?!" Connor was alert.

"Connor. I want to ask you something." Fred said furtively.

"? Tell me something, I have to go to the library to study runes later."

"Don't worry." George's eyes rolled wildly, "Connor, did you quarrel with Alice?"

Connor pushed the two away, patted his clothes and said, "Why are you asking this?"

"We don't care about you." Fred spread his hands and said, "I really don't care about others."

"That's right, I see that you and Alice are not quite right these days. Is there any problem with your relationship? Tell us, we are the best at dealing with relationship problems!" George said, patting his chest.

"You guys?! Are you kidding me? Have you ever been in a relationship?" Connor shook his head and sneered. It's ridiculous that two single dogs dare to speak nonsense here.

"Hey! Don't underestimate us, we helped solve Li and Angelina's relationship problems! We even helped Cedric! No one knows how to deal with relationship problems better than us!"

Connor narrowed his eyes. The EQ of these two guys is indeed quite high, but no matter how you look at their intentions, they are not that simple, to share worries for friends?I, Connor, was the first to not believe it!
"There is nothing between me and Alice. If you have time to care about this kind of thing, you might as well go back and finish the homework of the arithmetic and divination class."

"There's nothing to be shy about, Connor, let's hear it~"

Connor resolutely rejected the strange request of the two people, seeing that Connor would not let go, the two had no choice but to give up asking.

"It's boring... Well, Connor, there is actually one more thing we want to ask for your opinion." Fred and George let go of Connor and sat on the other side of the sofa.

"Say."

"We're planning to create a Hogwarts Monthly Newsletter to record the interesting stories that happened in the castle every month. What do you think of this idea?"

Connor's eyes widened, he knew that these two guys had no good intentions, running a newspaper?Do you want to make headlines with me? !Fortunately, he was not fooled, Connor frowned and said, "Why do you suddenly want to do this?"

"Emmm, it's a long story. The main reason is that we've been a little too boring recently." George spread his hands.

"The secret roads in the school have been explored in a hurry, and the map of the Forbidden Forest is almost finished. We don't even have the chance to fight against Peeves. We feel that life suddenly becomes empty."

"? Your homework"

"Stop, stop! Please, Connor, don't tell us about homework? Please!"

Connor shrugged: "So you don't have anything else to do? Are you done researching your skipping pills?"

"Hey, actually we have done almost the research on this." The twins looked at each other and smiled: "We also made a lot of funny roads, we tried to sell them, but the sales were not very good, and we sold them one by one. , the progress is too slow."

"So...we thought of advertising!"

"Inspired by your billboard!"

"We want to start a newspaper that belongs to our Hogwarts!"

"Our fraternity is responsible for publishing!"

"Record interesting stories that happened in the castle!"

"You can also advertise our products by the way!"

"Simply perfect!" x2
"What do you think of this idea, Connor?" x2
The light bulb in Connor's mind lit up, and he had to admit that this was an excellent idea. What is the most convenient and quick way to control people's consciousness?Control public opinion!
The mainstream public opinion in the British magic world is in the hands of the Daily Prophet, but not many young wizards at Hogwarts are used to reading the Daily Prophet, except for some traditional wizarding families who order prophets for their children. Outside of the daily newspaper, few little wizards are willing to spend their own money to buy newspapers. After all, the things published in the Daily Prophet are relatively far away from the little wizards.

So there is nothing in the newspaper market at Hogwarts, so there is great potential for running a school newspaper at Hogwarts!

Connor's thoughts came alive. Almost all British wizards came from Hogwarts. Hogwarts students are the future of the British wizarding world. Now that he has established a fraternity that attracts all wizarding elites, So why not water those more common "flowers" by the way?
"Connor, there are many advantages to running a newspaper, and your monster card can also advertise on it..."

"Events like these competitions can also be directly published in newspapers..."

Seeing Connor's silence, the twins tried to convince Connor, and then...

"Great idea! This is a great idea!" Connor stood up abruptly and clapped his fists, startling the twins: "Fred, George, I completely agree with your plan! But instead of a monthly magazine, we will run a weekly magazine. ! Timeliness is important! And editing, content, scripting... It’s a plan that needs to be thought through! Could even be a major activity for our fraternity! Let me think about it.”

"..." Looking at Connor, who kept muttering, and seemed much more excited than them, the twins were a little stunned for a moment, looking at each other. Is this...the plan a success?
