Hogwarts: I am Harry's Cousin
Chapter 14 14. Phenomenon-level work
The days that followed were calm and monotonous. Apart from studying, every day was researching potions and exercising.
The difference is that Dudley is more serious and focused on potions, and even troubles Mrs. Figg to help him buy some esoteric magic books on potions and herbs, and he is more serious and hardworking in physical exercise.
It's like being stimulated by something, turning into a learning madman.
Until the new year is crossed, it is a year to remember and a very important one.
This year is 1991, the year Dudley and Harry turned eleven.
At the age of eleven, it is possible to be admitted to Hogwarts.
"Harry, I have something to do today, you go home first." One day after school, Dudley suddenly said to Harry: "If you ask at home, just say that I invited my classmates to play together."
"Okay, Brother D."
Harry nodded obediently and walked towards Little Whinging with his schoolbag on his back. Having stayed by Dudley's side for a long time, he knew very well that he shouldn't ask questions.
After parting from Harry, Dudley found a secret alley with no one there, first changed into a suit that he had prepared long ago, and then began to wipe things on his face.
After a while, an ordinary-looking young man came out of the alley.
Disguise or make-up, which Dudley lit up from the system, is currently only LV1.
In that system, except for magic, there are all kinds of skills there.
Dudley was going to make an appointment with the publishing house today, so he used this image in order to hide his identity.
Although it is a good gimmick that Master Jerry is underage, it will cause a lot of unnecessary troubles. Dudley doesn't like troubles, and keeping a low profile is his consistent criterion.
The place agreed between Dudley and the publishing house was at the coffee shop.
Because Dudley told the publisher that he created this book in a coffee shop, ordering a cup of coffee at a time, and then sitting for a whole day.
"Mr. Jerry, long time no see." Jimmy, a staff member of the publishing house, saw Dudley, and immediately put on a formulaic smile on his face.
The one who smiles is called brilliant.
Thanks to Mr. Jerry, their publishing house is very rich now.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Dudley was their bread and butter.
After some formulaic politeness, we entered the topic.
"Lord of the Rings Book 2 is unsurprisingly a big hit."
"The manuscript fee for this issue has been remitted to your account. If you have any questions, you can contact us at any time."
The second volume of Lord of the Rings, Dudley, used the split formula, and even the first volume was changed to split because of the previous big sales.
Big sales are normal, who makes this world so lacking in Western fantasy works, the appearance of "Lord of the Rings" is undoubtedly a shock to fantasy lovers in this world.
"I don't know when Mr. Jerry will give us the manuscript of the third volume."
This is the purpose of the publishing house. The hot sale of the first and second volumes of "The Lord of the Rings" has made countless people envious, and the publishing house is also anxious. After all, judging from the current popularity, it is just money for nothing. The notes flew away.
Seeing that Dudley didn't answer for a long time, Jimmy was a little anxious: "Are you worried about the sharing issue? Don't worry, this is easy to discuss."
Even if the share ratio is reduced, the sales base can be placed there, and it will be profitable after all.
If the God of Wealth ran away, it would be a real blood loss.
Dudley was not in a hurry to talk about the share, but asked: "Mr. Jimmy, we have been working together for two years, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Jerry."
Speaking of this, Jimmy also has a look of emotion on his face. Who would have thought that the first attempt could reap such a great success.
"I think your ability is good, are you interested in working with me?"
Dudley didn't talk too much nonsense, and went straight to the point: "I want to set up a company."
Instead of rejecting or agreeing right away, Jimmy asked, "What?"
"Sell peripherals."
A lot of things don't require complex high-tech to make money. As long as the brand can be marketed, the copyright fee and the sales of various derivatives can be collected and softened.
For example, Harry Potter in Dudley's previous life, such as the Pokémon with the world's top IP gold-absorbing ability.
In the later stage, as long as you maintain the heat, you can take it out and 'fry it' if you have nothing to do, and you can even make money while lying down.
The easiest and most convenient way to make money.
Writing novels - selling big - making brand names - selling peripherals, this is the road that Dudley planned from the very beginning, and he planned for not being able to go to Hogwarts, although he really wanted to go to Hogwarts Learn magic.
In the previous life, I always ran around for life, but in this life, I can't worry about money.
Even if you can't get into the magic school, at least you have to be financially free.
Especially in the era of technology, the productivity of the muggle world is no worse than that of wizards.
The threat of technology to spellcasters like wizards is actually not small at all. Take other worlds as an example, such as FATE in the moon world, Emiya Kiritsugu has a sniper rifle, a pack of bombs, and an origin bullet, playing elite magic. The teacher ran away with his head in his arms.
In fact, Dudley has always been curious about a question, whether guns can kill wizards.
At least in the Xingyue world, bullets can kill magicians.
Have a chance to try it out.
Jimmy didn't immediately agree to Dudley, but tentatively said: "Mr. Jerry, can you give me some time to think about it?"
In fact, he was very willing in his heart. After all, he was only working for the publishing house. The publishing house made a lot of money and paid him a little more bonus, but the big part went into the pockets of the people above.
Following Mr. Jerry is different. Judging from the current popularity of "The Lord of the Rings", even a little bit can reach the pinnacle of life.
But he couldn't be sure if Dudley meant it or was just talking.
Dudley nodded, giving the other party some time to think about it, and he would definitely agree in the end.
No one has trouble with money.
The two then had a heated and friendly negotiation over the division of the third book of "Lord of the Rings".
Finally, the split ratio was determined.
As a result, both parties were very satisfied, and ended the negotiation happily.
Dudley: "Pleasant cooperation."
Jimmy: "Happy cooperation."
Watching Jimmy get up, Dudley drank the milk in the glass.
Dudley didn't really like the taste of coffee, be it Italian or American.
So the guy went to the coffee shop and ordered a glass of milk.
According to his words, he is still growing and needs to add more meat, egg and milk.
Well, this guy who is nearly 1.8 meters tall is only 11 years old, and he is indeed still growing.
Within a few days, Dudley received a reply from Jimmy that he was willing to go with Dudley.
Ever since, one contributed money and the other contributed, and soon bought a factory, and began to sell the peripherals of "Lord of the Rings".
The result was not as expected by Dudley. It took only one month for the sale to be sold out. The most popular product was the derivative product of the protagonist Hobbit trio. Of course, the elf prince was more popular among girls.
The already popular work, relying on the popular sales of these peripherals, also let more people who didn't know this work know about it.
Complementing each other, "The Lord of the Rings" quickly became a phenomenon-level work.
