A day at Hogwarts

"Ding Dong!"

"Ding Dong!"

"Ding Dong!"

When Seamus and Harry walked into the dormitory, the purple leather notebook on Charles' bedside kept ringing and flashing.

Harry was very wary of strange notebooks, and immediately walked over and asked: "Charles, where did you pick this notebook?"

Charles rolled his eyes at Harry and said: "This is a new product of Owl Communications, a subsidiary of our Phoenix Logistics."

He took out several colorful notebooks from his bag. These notebooks came with a delicate and small pen, and there was an owl pattern on the leather cover.

Charles said: "It's this year's Christmas gift. Pick one for yourself, and Harry will pick one for Hermione. There are instructions for use."

Harry and Seamus immediately realized that this must be a good thing. They immediately picked one and then sat on Seamus' bed to study it.

When they figured it out, they immediately wrote their names on the cover of their notebooks, and then gently bumped the spines of the notebooks against each other, and chanted the spell: "Add friend."

The other party's name immediately appeared in the address book behind the cover.

Harry followed the instructions to group Seamus' name. There was only one name in the Hogwarts group.

As soon as he finished setting it up, the notebook started to ring, and Seamus' name was glowing and jumping.

Seamus leaned over and urged: "Hurry up, see if you received it."

Harry clicked on the name in the address book, and the notebook turned a page by itself.

The chat interface appeared on this page. The header and footer were advertisements for the Dancing Grass Restaurant. The advertisement said that you could click to book lunch, dinner and private rooms.

Below the chat interface was an input bar, which could be handwritten or typed on the keyboard. Seamus said "Hello, Harry" in the dialog box.

Harry immediately wrote "Hello, Seamus" in the input bar, and then clicked send, and Seamus' notebook started to ring.

"So cool!" Seamus said excitedly, "In the future, we can chat directly without writing letters!"

He clicked on the emoticon bar and sent Harry a smiley face emoticon.

Then he asked, "How much is this notebook? I want to buy it for my family."

Charles replied while chatting with Fleur, "6 Galleons per notebook."

"Tomorrow we will hold a sales ceremony at the Dancing Grass Restaurant. Fudge will come. The Ministry of Magic will purchase a batch of notebooks for all officials and staff for work. Your notebooks are for ordinary home use."

Phoenix Logistics has focused on the communication system since the beginning. The communication oil painting cannot be produced in a short time, so Charles decided to make money by referring to the chat software.

It's just that the communication notebook is not easy to make. It didn't catch up with the Quidditch World Cup and can only be commercialized at the end of September.

In Charles' view, the communication notebook has basic chat functions and advertisements, but it is not enough. Customized avatars, chat groups, nearby people and other functions need to be improved.

Compared with the home notebook, the official notebook has more functions such as table drawing and department message group sending. The cover materials are also divided according to the job level. After Fudge studied it, he immediately decided to match it with the Ministry of Magic.

Charles also plans to make some upgrades after the Ministry of Magic has feedback from the use of the Ministry of Magic, and then promote it to the International Confederation of Wizards, with the goal of the Ministry of Magic of various countries.

The price was set lower than the wand price, and the profit was not high. There was opposition in the company at first. But after Charles told everyone about the charging items such as monthly membership, VIP membership, member avatar and fashion show, colorful name, fancy font and bubble frame, shopping anywhere, advertising service, etc., some people thought that it was okay to give it away for free.

But in the end, the proposal of giving it away for free was rejected. This involves a brand image issue. We cannot let cheapness become a synonym for the company.

Harry has already found the digital calculator and currency calculator inside. He sighed while playing with it: "This is a big business. How far can it be used?"

Charles said: "Vernon is on a business trip in China now. You can send him a message."

"But it should be dark there now. He is still sleeping. He must be happy to see you say good morning to him."

Harry shook his head hurriedly and said: "I don't want to be beaten by him."

"No, he can use it too?"

Charles nodded and said: "Yes, I originally planned to use it for my children, but I found that Muggles can also use it."

According to the old man, Vernon was quite resistant to this notebook at first, but he found it very convenient after trying it, and finally used it with gritted teeth.

As for the "International Statute of Secrecy", don't show it off in the UK. In the East, where the child celebrated by performing flying magic on chickens and dogs after the college entrance examination in the magic school, it is generally selectively enforced.

While talking, Charles added Seamus and Harry as friends.

Seamus turned back to the address book page and found something new. He immediately asked, "Hey, how did you do it?"

He and Harry had just a row of black names, but Charles's was a square box. The avatar on the left was a flaming phoenix, and the nickname "2,4uene" on the upper right was shining with golden light. At the bottom was the personal signature "True knowledge is not just about knowing what we know, but also about knowing what we don't know." After clicking it, you can also see the information card such as real name, age, gender and work.

Charles said, "Click on the settings, where you can set the avatar and so on."

After that, he recommended Dobby and Vernon's account to Harry, and sent a message to Mafalda, asking him to find Seamus to add friends.

While Seamus and Harry were sending each other emojis, they asked Charles, "Charles, tomorrow is Hogsmeade Week. Which girl are you going to play with?"

Charles said, "Why do you care about this?"

Harry said, "Many people are guessing whether you are going to play with Miss Delacour or Miss Vampire, so we came to ask."

Charles waved his hand and said, "Go cool off!"

"Hurry up and go to the common room to help me promote it. I'll give you vouchers for the Dancing Grass Restaurant."

The two guys ran away, and Charles continued to chat with Fleur.

At this time, Furong sent a text: "So her family is like this!"

Charles had just told Furong about Erica's family situation, and continued to write: "Her evening dress is a cheap second-hand one, very ugly."

"Not long ago, her girlfriend got her salary, so she sent me the money to buy her a nice dress here."

"I don't know how to choose a lady's dress. Can you go to Fengya Wizard Clothing Store with me tomorrow to give me some advice?"

"I also want to buy a new dress myself. The one my colleague prepared for me is too scary."

Furong immediately replied: "Okay, let's meet at breakfast tomorrow."
