"Run a newspaper!" George exclaimed.

Fred asked: "Don't your family have a stake in the Daily Prophet? Why do you need another newspaper?"

"Accurately speaking, what I want to do should be a fortnightly magazine affiliated with the Daily Prophet." Clark emphasized.

"We have not been able to apply for the publication number of the British Ministry of Magic's Magic Publications Publishing Division, so we can only rely on the "Daily Prophet" name.

Otherwise, just entertain yourself on campus, or publish an underground publication like the kind of magazine you like to read. "

"What are you talking about, we usually read serious publications!" The twin brothers denied almost in unison.

Hermione looked at them ignorantly. As a little witch from a Muggle family, she didn't know what these people were talking about.

So she directly ignored the meaning of the three boys' words and asked:

"Clarke, have you ever thought about it, since you already have a copy of the Daily Prophet, why would anyone pay another extra to subscribe to your newspaper?

Besides, we are still students, and we are too busy with homework every day. Neither time nor energy is enough to support us to run this newspaper. "

George and Fred also nodded, "Yes, we can't do this. You said that we can do business and sell things. Let us write articles. You can spare us."

Seeing how embarrassed they were, Clark laughed, "No, where did you get your confidence, you would think that just a few of us could make a newspaper."

When the twins and Hermione heard this, their faces fell.

Clark accepted it as soon as he saw it, "Just kidding, don't be so nervous, I'll answer your questions one by one."

"First of all, the positioning of this newspaper is to focus on all kinds of interesting things on and off the Hogwarts campus, and I even thought of the name, so it's called "Hogwarts School Magazine".

Simple and straightforward, it differentiates it from the Daily Prophet, which focuses on news about the British wizarding world.

The audience is also clear, first of all the students and staff in the school, and then the parents of those students. In addition, there are many adult wizards who graduated from Hogwarts in the British wizarding world, and they must also miss the life on the campus very much.

With these potential readers, trust me, we will succeed, at least not much worse than the Daily Prophet. "

George nodded subconsciously, "That's right, if you say that, there must be thousands of students and their parents."

Fred scratched his fingers and began to calculate, "A newspaper is 5 nut, a thousand copies is 5,000 nut, and 5,000 is... How many gold Galleons are 5,000 newspapers?"

"Almost 50 Galleons," Clark replied.

"That's a lot!" Fred exclaimed,

Clark stretched out his index finger and shook it.

"It can't be counted like this, as Hermione said, as students, our main task is to study, and running a newspaper is just a kind of adjustment activity between classes, so I set this "Hogwarts School Magazine" as a bimonthly issue , issued every two weeks.

In this way, we can have enough time and energy to collect the content materials of newspapers and periodicals, and the price of each copy can be set a little higher.

Moreover, since this newspaper is affiliated with the "Daily Prophet", the complicated work of editing, typesetting, reviewing, and developing magic photos is naturally done by the employees arranged by the newspaper. "

Clark spoke clearly, and all aspects of the problem were considered, and it seemed that he had planned for a long time.

Hermione pondered for a while, and after careful analysis, she had to admit that this matter was very troublesome.

But she still subconsciously said, "Since you have arranged everything and have people from the newspaper to help, why did you call us here? Do you want to show off with us?"

As soon as the words were out of her mouth, she regretted it. In fact, she still wanted to participate in this matter. It didn't matter if she had money or not, the main thing was to be able to work with Clark.

Fortunately, Clark knew that she was playing a small role for the joke just now, and didn't care, and explained with a smile.

"Those employees in the newspaper office are only temporarily helping us for a while, and when everything is on the right track, we still have to replace them with our own people.

After all, I, Clark, do my best work, and I don't want to be forever dependent on others. "

He turned to look at Fred and George, and continued, "I called you two over because of the magic card thing."

"I thought about it, if you sell magic cards directly, it will be a big problem to popularize the way of playing cards.

If you rely on you to teach people to play, you can only spread it in a small area in a short period of time.

But with the "Hogwarts School Journal", it is different. We can open up an entertainment game section in the school journal to introduce the content and gameplay of magic cards in detail, so as to spread and teach in a large area.

Not only that, but I also have a plan to create an event where you can order newspapers and deliver cards. "

"No!" Before Clark could finish speaking, the twin brothers denied it: "You said it yourself, a deck of magic cards has 1 Galleon, and how much is a newspaper, so if you order a newspaper and send the cards, that's not a loss. Is it? Besides, you've already ordered, who else will buy the cards?"

Clark quickly appeased them, "When I said send cards, I meant one, not one pair."

"Then..." The two brothers knew that they were in a hurry, "That's also a big expense."

"Don't worry, I won't lose it to you," Clark scolded with a smile~lightnovelpub.net~ Doing business needs to be generous, you can't do it, and if you don't invest, where will the return come from? "

"Listen to me first, I said that the activity of ordering newspapers and sending cards is a one-time subscription of the "Hogwarts School Magazine" for three years. Then the first five issues will be accompanied by two magic cards.

You think, students and parents actually subscribe to a part of the subscription, especially during the holidays, they only need to subscribe to one copy, so subscription for three years at a time will increase their income virtually.

Moreover, the money collected in advance for these three years is a large amount of money. With this money, we can also use it for other things, we can do more promotion activities, and develop the school magazine faster.

As for the ten magic cards given away, although it is considered a cost, there are forty cards in a deck of cards in a game. If they don't want to waste them, they can only spend money to make up the remaining thirty cards, which is invisible. Promoted card sales.

In addition, we can also use the method of random gift, giving a few cards from each faction, so that two factions and four races, if they all want to get together, they have to buy four decks of cards. "

"Ah~~" The faces of George and Fred showed the standard expressions of Shen Teng, "Listen to your words, subvert the outlook on life!"
