Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts
Chapter 76: Let's make a big deal now
In many novels, the protagonist has a powerful backstage that allows the protagonist to do a lot of things conveniently.
Now Zhang Xu enjoys this kind of treatment. With the help of Mr. Zhao, many of his ideas can be quickly realized.
But Zhang Xu is not the kind of person who can do whatever he wants with the backstage. He has played a very important role in many issues.
For example, Zhang Xutuo and Zhao Lao recently submitted a feasibility report on the purchase of the aircraft carrier Minsk, which was decommissioned in the near future, and the aircraft carrier Kiev, which was decommissioned at the end of June, to build an aircraft carrier theme park.
These two aircraft carriers from the 1970s will definitely have their power system and weapon system destroyed when they are bought back. Buying them back as a warship won’t be possible, but they can still be used as a park.
The purchase of these two slightly outdated retired aircraft carriers to build a theme park was for the purchase of the one that is still in the sea and was bought back a few years later under the banner of "Macau’s first maritime casino is online!" Varanga took cover.
Originally, the navy had plans to buy Soviet aircraft carriers while the Soviet Union disintegrated. However, considering all aspects, it was found that the feasibility was not high. After all, Russia does not want its southern neighbors to have strong maritime power.
So Zhang Xu proposed a three-step plan in the report. The first step is to rent a site in Russia, and domestic personnel produce materials. After buying the newly retired Kiev ship, it will be transformed into a sea park in Russia and then dragged back. The first step is to tow the Minsk back and transform it into a sea park. The next third step is to point the Varyag with the same name. After the purchase, it will be transformed into a sea casino or a large flat-top fishery ship. Didn’t you have the final say? In this way, if it goes well, the Varyag will be available from 1996 to 1997. After several years of transformation, the Navy will have an aircraft carrier within a few years of entering the 21st century.
So, when Zhang Xu brought Furong and Gabriel out of the Yongle Dragon Cave and surfaced, he saw a group of military officers who wanted to be crazy about aircraft carriers were waiting for him.
In the next few days, helpless Zhang Xu could only hold a (chui) meeting (niu) with a group of big masters in the conference room on Yongxing Island. Furong and Gabriel followed Zhang Xu's cousin to study how to grow vegetables on the island.
Time flies quickly, and this year’s summer vacation is coming to an end.
A week before the start of school, Zhang Xu came to the UK, because several Hogwarts classmates wrote to him and wanted to talk to him about something.
At the Broken Cauldron Bar, Zhang Xu met Harry Potter who lived here after running away from home.
"Harry, why are you here?" Zhang Xu stopped Harry Potter who had just walked down from the upper floor of the Broken Cauldron Bar.
"I inflated my cousin Dudley." Harry said with a shrug. "He learned from Aunt Maggie about my parents in front of me."
"Uh... very good, very powerful." Zhang Xu was speechless.
Zhang Xu ordered two breakfasts and invited Harry to eat together.
Zhang Xu was eating breakfast while watching the recent "Prophet Daily".
Under the influence of the will of the world, some things have changed, but some things have not changed.
Arthur Weasley won the "Daily Prophet" Annual Grand Prix Garon Award, and the five children from their family who had just returned from China, embarked on a trip to Egypt.
Then Sirius still saw the Weasley family portrait in the newspaper, and then he swam all the way from Azkaban back to the British Isles.
Zhang Xu still admires Sirius' perseverance. At the beginning, a dog who could not eat enough to wear warm in Azkaban could actually run back from the vast ocean.
The Hogwarts students' trip to China was not mentioned in the newspapers except for a while at the beginning. I didn't hear other wizards mention it in the bar either.
After eating breakfast, Harry continued to Diagon Alley, drooling at the flying broom in the window, and several classmates who were looking for Zhang Xu in trouble also arrived.
When Percy Weasley, Cedric Diggory, Penello Krivart and Daphne Greengrass came to Zhang Xu’s table and sat down, Zhang Xu was a little confused , This is the rhythm of the four colleges to work together?
"Zhang, have you noticed that the "Daily Prophet" did not publish any news about our return from China." Penello said.
"Perhaps because Sirius escaped from prison, he occupied the headlines during this period of time." Zhang Xu said.
"No," Daphne said, "Some people don't want the public to know everything we saw in China."
"In the Ministry of Magic, someone gave the Daily Prophet an order to prohibit reporters from interviewing students who have been to China." Cedric's father is more popular in the Ministry than Mr. Weasley, so he can get a lot of news.
"Obviously, some people don't want to see Britain become like China." Percy said, "If the magical world of Britain changes, then their interests will no longer exist."
"Are there many people like this?" Zhang Xu asked.
"Not many." Daphne said, "but they are all very conservative ancient families with very wide connections, and they will not be able to refuse some of their requests for a while. At first they tried to cut off the trade with China, but the result was It was rejected. Later they put pressure on the Ministry of Magic and the "Daily Prophet" to ban the report." Daphne, a member of the ancient family of wizards, knows a lot of news in the circle.
"What do other families think of this matter?" Zhang Xu asked.
"In the past two years, many families have made a lot of money through trade with China. It is absolutely impossible for them to cut off trade with China. But they worry that if the British magic world becomes the same as China, they The benefits will be divided by the mixed-blood wizards." Daphne said.
"The attitudes of the families towards China are very contradictory." Percy said, "On the one hand, because of trade, because they have made huge profits, they are very eager to cooperate with China. On the other hand, most families do not want to learn China’s practices. But there are still some families who hope to learn from China."
"In the Ministry of Magic, there are also different voices. Some people hope to get along with Muggles publicly, so that the Ministry of Magic can hold more power." Cedric said.
"In the group of half-blood wizards, almost all agree to expand contacts with Huaxia, and hope to learn the model of China." Penello said, "You also know that the current system and atmosphere of the British magical world is not friendly to half-blood wizards. "
After listening to these people, Zhang Xu fell into a wave of contemplation.
Several of you here understand how complicated conflicts of interest are behind the ban on media coverage.
And Zhang Xu knows this more deeply than a few of them.
A new interest group that has grown stronger due to the expansion of trade with China has formed, a bureaucratic group eager to gain greater power has begun to stretch out its hands, a group that has always been oppressed has seen the hope of rising, and the ancient forces are here. Tightly guarding the interests in his hands.
This particular cat is about to break out of the rhythm of the revolution! Zhang Xu, who is very familiar with the modern Chinese history of the two worlds, complained in his heart.
There was a monkey marshal who studied history in Zhang Xu’s entire battle group in Rome in his last life. His research direction was Chinese modern history. He said that when opening up the modern history of China, many of the various "teaching plans" were the result of conflicts between groups dependent on foreign powers and local clan powers competing for interests, and the initiation of the "Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" uprising in the name of foreigners, and various The contradiction between the foreign comprador group and the local group, this period of history does not know how many people who study history have supported.
Zhang Xu looked at the four people in front. They all represented the interests of one party.
Daphne Greengrass and her Greengrass family have made a lot of money by exporting magic materials to China in the past two years. Daphne personally said to Zhang Xu that their family didn’t know where they heard that Huaxia people pay attention to “parents’ orders and matchmakers’ words” when they get married. If Zhang Xu hadn’t caught up with Furong, their family would send someone to Huaxia to find them. Zhang Xu's family "proposed", whether it's her or her sister, Zhang Xu can choose whatever she wants.
And Percy Weasley’s family, through Charlie Weasley, recently obtained the European agency rights for the flying broomstick produced by China~www.readwn.com~ Their family went to Egypt this holiday to persuade their eldest son, Bill. Weasley quit his job at Gringotts and came back to take over the business. As for the British Ministry of Magic's prohibition on the import of flying broomsticks and the like, the purchase of "parts" and paint will become British manufacturing.
Cedric Diggory’s father, Amos Diggory, saw the hope of expanding his power.
Penello Crevat is the representative of the half-blood wizard who has been exploited and suppressed in the British magical world.
This table is all "the imperial confidant" of the British Ministry of Magic. Zhang Xu complained again.
Everyone is smart, and you don’t need to know what each other means. So Zhang Xu very much doubted whether the group behind them had reached a tacit understanding or even an agreement.
Since I don’t know what to say, let’s continue to play tacit understanding.
Zhang Xu said to them: "Since they are unwilling to report this, then we will report it ourselves."
Percy and the four of them lit up and realized that it was a good idea.
Zhang Xu continued: “If you don’t engage in newspapers, you have to distinguish it from the Prophet’s Daily. When running a magazine, our content does not pursue timeliness but depth. It is published once a week, and the target of the distribution is positioned at 30 Wizards under the age of age and current students at Hogwarts. The content can be rich and varied, and you can open the draft. If you want to do it, I suggest a series of special topics on the Basilisk incident in the past. After relying on this topic to gain a reputation , The content is up to you, I will be running out of time next semester."
Several people in Percy discussed it and found that it was feasible.
At last Percy asked Zhang Xu: "What should the magazine be called?"
"Just call it "Youth Magazine"," Zhang Xu said.
