Chapter 247 Fortunately, there was a window sill back then
It is true that research requires funds, but Noah’s research seems to be...
It didn't cost anything at all, right?
Not to mention anything else, the information he researched was basically given to him by the system. It can be said that the most consuming part has been saved by Noah.
Even if you buy a dragon and do experiments, the price is basically not much with the help of Mr. Ferenc.
But Dumbledore and the others didn't know about these things. What they knew was that Noah was conducting a magical research.
Dumbledore also witnessed Noah disemboweling a tree dragon and using the organs inside to study and record reports.
So Dumbledore was convinced of this. He thought for a moment and asked, "Do you need the Ministry of Magic to fund your magic research project?"
The Ministry of Magic provides financial support, which is much simpler and more convenient than Noah running his own business.
And Dumbledore also believed that the wealthy people in the Ministry of Magic would be interested in hearing about the project in cooperation with the Temple Guardians, and would be happy to open their wallets.
If nothing else, many Ministry of Magic staff present were eager to give it a try.
Unfortunately, Noah seemed to think about it for a while before shaking his head in rejection, which made many Ministry of Magic staff present feel a little disappointed.
"No, Professor. The Ministry of Magic's money should be spent in the most suitable place, and if the project that Charles and I have in mind is successful, it might be able to increase the Ministry of Magic's tax revenue."
Noah casually picked up a goblet filled with fine wine and said with a smile.
"Is that so?" Dumbledore nodded, and then asked curiously: "Can you tell me what the project is?"
"I don't know if Professor Dumbledore has noticed that although the wizarding world has basically begun to use computers and mobile phones, and the Internet has covered the entire wizarding world, we don't have any social products here."
"Social product?"
The term social product is a very unfamiliar word, let alone Dumbledore and others who have lived in the wizarding world all their lives.
Even Charles, who grew up in the world of ordinary people, did not have such a detailed concept.
But after Noah’s explanation, they suddenly understood what this social product was!
To put it simply, the social product that Noah refers to is software that achieves this purpose through the Internet. It is social software.
The Internet has been fully rolled out in the wizarding world, and almost every magician has his or her own computer and mobile phone, except for Hogwarts, where the magnetic field is too strong to penetrate.
But to be honest, phone bills are quite expensive, and not everyone will buy a mobile phone.
In addition, sometimes the person you need to contact is busy and you can't get through, which is very embarrassing.
As for writing letters?
Although there are some magicians who still keep this tradition, the owls that deliver letters may not be willing to help you.
Especially when you are farther away, these round-faced guys will tilt their heads and look at you with wide eyes.
It also takes a long time to send letters, and it often takes a week or two to discuss a matter.
Noah also heard about a magician who wrote a letter to his family. When the owl came back, he brought a mobile phone and an instruction manual...
It can be said that Noah and Charles wanted to create social products, which greatly enhanced the connection between magicians.
And Noah also emphasized one thing, social products will be a larger communication platform, allowing magicians to broaden their social circles.
In addition to making it easier for magicians to communicate with our relatives and friends, it also allows us to get to know more like-minded people.
And it can also happen when encountering more things, such as the Ministry of Magic announcing certain public plans, and magicians can also express their opinions on certain platforms.
It can be said that if this thing is really developed, it will not only increase the connection between magicians, but also expand to the Ministry of Magic in other countries.
This can make the magical world closer. Although there will be some problems, such as pure-blood supremacy in some places, it can't be blocked, can it?
"It's really...a great idea." Dumbledore pursed his lips and found that he seemed to be shocked.
The other members of the Ministry of Magic seem to be much the same. It is completely conceivable how beneficial it would be to the entire magical world if this thing really came out.
As for how Noah and the others make money? They don’t need to think about it. Even if they, the members of the Ministry of Magic, collectively propose full support!
Seriously, especially the one who created some platform for magicians to express their opinions.
To be honest, with a little guidance, many people can understand and support the Ministry of Magic's decision. This can be said to be public opinion-oriented control. By then, I am afraid that the Daily Prophet will have withdrawn from the stage of history!
Hermione also looked at Noah blankly. She didn't expect that Noah would come up with such a method.
Although she didn't know exactly how Noah wanted to make money, she had to say that Noah's idea could really bring the magic world closer together.
"Ah, by the way, this is just one of the ideas, and the research and development of this thing should be ranked after the research sequence. But I have some other ideas, which should not take too much time to complete."
Noah looked at their expressions and knew that this matter was basically fine.
It can bring the British magical community closer together, and maybe even the magical community around the world will be more closely connected in the future.
How could this possibly disinterest them?
Even if there is no connection with the Ministry of Magic of other countries, as long as Noah cooperates with them more closely!
"This social product is a very meaningful thing. If you have any difficulties, you can always contact the Ministry of Magic."
Dumbledore nodded. Although he was a little disappointed that this thing couldn't come out so soon, he still supported it very much.
"Thank you, Professor Dumbledore." Noah nodded: "As for the other plan, do you know about movies?"
"Movie?" Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, and then asked hesitantly: "Is that the TV show that everyone watches together in the theater?"
"..."
Well, Dumbledore's understanding of this thing seems to be a bit off.
But it's the same when it's said, it's just that the way it's expressed is different.
To be honest, movie stuff is really profitable, especially in the magical world.
First of all, there are not so many messy expenses to spend, actors and other things can be completely allowed for these magicians to participate.
In this case, there is no need to spend money on any special effects or all kinds of messy things. The most you can do is adjust the lighting effects and that's it.
And you can make money by shooting movies. For example, if you insert some advertisements into the movie, you can definitely make a lot of money.
There are no movies in the magic world. Although magicians have more communication with the ordinary world, they still don't integrate too much.
Even in the most integrated American magic world, many magicians have never been to a movie theater or used the Internet in their lives.
Therefore, Noah is very confident that the movie will make money, and Noah also has a lot of bad taste in it.
"I have ruined "Harry Potter", so is it possible to film the original work and show it to the new kid? Or, if the mutants have completely left the ordinary world, then the X-Men should also be filmed.
Come out? In the future, is it possible to have an original work from the Marvel Universe? Well, even if not, can we also have a DC Universe Film Festival!"
The movies in the Marvel Universe seem to be in some trouble, because if Noah takes it too far, it may easily cause problems.
Moreover, Iron Man hasn’t even come out yet, so filming it will cause trouble, not to mention that Noah doesn’t plan to come up with these things so early.
Might as well make something suitable for magicians to watch.
For example, in the "Harry Potter" series, things happened to develop at Hogwarts, and it was indeed during the reign of Voldemort.
Even if Noah changes it, it's not impossible to change the protagonist to himself. At the worst, he can just tell a story in which 'he' has not met the Supreme Mage.
After discussing these matters with Dumbledore, Noah felt particularly relaxed.
Although strictly speaking, I may have a lot to do in the next few years, but after thinking about it, now is a gap period.
It would be really not good if we don’t take advantage of the opportunity now to harvest the fruits we have planted before and make some new arrangements.
The dinner at the Ministry of Magic lasted until about ten o'clock in the evening, and Noah left around this time.
He had communicated with Dumbledore enough, and Dumbledore also gave an answer that satisfied Noah and would fully support Noah.
Seriously, if these two things succeed, you can imagine how rich Noah will be in the future.
As a magician, especially one who does experimental research, he really cannot do without money.
Even if we don’t talk about money, with these messy social tools, at least the relationship between magicians will become closer, right?
"Perhaps when the magic academy enrolls students in the future, it will no longer be a silly owl parked on your window sill, but a mysterious message suddenly received on your mobile phone, and this message can only be read by you.
See you there."
Noah touched his chin and recalled how a silly guy stayed on the window sill of his room more than ten years ago. Noah smiled unconsciously.
Unknowingly, he has been learning magic for more than ten years. If the system space is added, the time he spent learning magic will be doubled.
Time flies so fast. Now Noah has changed from a guy who has no magic power in his body but can't do anything, to a person who is only one step away from becoming a high-level magician.
Unfortunately, Noah didn't sigh for long before he suddenly thought of a question.
"Huh? If my room didn't have a window sill, then where would that owl fly to..."
