The Heavens: Hogwarts Transfer Students

Chapter 472 News doesn’t need the truth

On the first Sunday in November, the four participating warriors will undergo wand testing, with professional craftsman Master Ollivander serving as the quality inspector.

There were no twists and turns. The four wands were all up to standard. They had not been tampered with and were of good quality.

It sounds like unnecessary work, but it is actually quite critical. The quality of a warrior's wand is directly related to the performance of one's personal strength. If the quality of the wand is not up to standard, repair or replacement must be considered.

Like the Weasley family, where a wand is passed down to three generations and the death wand is still there, it is also common in some poor wizarding families.

However, now that Hogwarts has established a poverty alleviation fund, which provides sufficient assistance and subsidies to poor students, this dilemma will basically never happen again.

After the wand was tested, a reporter from the Daily Prophet came to interview him again. For a topical figure like Harry, the newspaper had always paid a lot of attention to him, easily making it a front-page headline.

The interviewer's name is Jennifer. She is a young witch with a refreshing appearance. She has only been working for a few years after graduation. Her speech is reasonable and measured. It is said that the content of her reports is also vivid and informative, and she rarely displays malicious subjective expressions.

When facing interviews, Harry behaved calmly and calmly, even a little bit tactful, and he pretended to be dumbfounded when faced with some sensitive topics.

For example, when asked why his name was chosen six times by the Goblet of Fire, Harry simply said that he had no idea.

As for other questions, such as whether he is confident in the game, his views on the other three warriors, etc., his answers are also lackluster.

"Cedric is a good opponent, and I will do my best to defeat him on the court... Viktor Krum, he is not bad. ... Fleur Delacour, she is also an excellent players."

"Does this mean you have a lower evaluation of the two warriors from the foreign school?" Jennifer asked keenly.

"I treat everyone equally." Harry smiled.

Reporter Jennifer quietly lamented that at such a young age, Harry had the composure of a veteran of the Ministry of Magic. I worked hard to get this interview opportunity, but if I can't come up with an eye-catching press release, I'm afraid it will be difficult to progress in my career.

After interviewing the contestants, she went to interview the teachers and students of the school. Finally, she returned to the newspaper office with an interview manuscript with true content. After writing the draft, she submitted it to her editor-in-chief. The other party was very dissatisfied after reading the content of the manuscript and asked to return it for rewriting.

But what could she write?

That’s what the four warriors who were interviewed said. If the news is not based on the principle of reflecting objective facts, but only wants to attract public attention and maliciously tamper with and distort the interview content, then it would be better for the journalism industry to directly change its profession and publish popular novels. Well, that’s art that the people love to hear and see.

"Listen, Miss Jennifer, journalism is not about reporting facts, it is about selling newspapers. With enough circulation and influence, more advertisers will be attracted to invest, and then we can earn wages. For Think about your job, think about it for all of us!"

"But what the public needs is the truth."

"Do you think they really care about the truth?" The editor laughed. "All they need is talking points. The life of wizards is very boring. Eat, work, rest, no matter what you write in the newspaper, even if it gets dark tomorrow The devil has returned, and they are living their lives as usual. The difference is that an interesting report can make them feel that the money they spent on subscribing to the newspaper was not in vain.

"Now, take your manuscript and go back to your work station. I want to see a qualified report before four o'clock in the afternoon."

After her manuscript was rejected, Jennifer failed to come up with an article that convinced the editor before the deadline, so she asked another reporter to ghostwrite and write an exaggerated article, which was published on the front page of the next day. Jennifer's name appears in the reporter's column, but she is not the author of the article.

She held the newspaper bitterly and read the words that made her lips tingle.

"Harry said: I think it was my parents who gave me the courage to compete. If they could see me, they would be proud of me... Sometimes I think of them and still cry at night..."

Harry, James and Lily all found it funny when they saw the newspaper. Harry couldn't help but complain to his companions that the reporter was really a mean person with code words that hurt people.

The report also mentioned Harry's rumored girlfriend.

"Harry's close friend Colin Creevey certified that he was inseparable from a girl named Hermione Granger. Miss Granger was stunningly beautiful, had excellent grades, came from a Muggle family, and was also the top student in school. They have already established an intimate relationship..."

Harry and Hermione didn't seem to be affected by the article. At least the author of the article was right about one thing. They were both top students in school. The relationship is indeed inseparable. Ron and Neville are also inseparable. Why not say that Harry and the two of them are boyfriends? That’s more interesting, isn’t it? It also combines the characteristics of the people of the corrupt country.

While having breakfast in the Great Hall on Monday, Hermione looked at Harry up and down after reading the report, looked at him for a long time, and then pinched the wrist of her right hand with her left hand.

"What are you doing?" Harry couldn't help but ask.

"I'm counting my heartbeats."

"Why?"

"The book says that if you like someone, your heart will beat faster when you see him." Hermione lazily put down her hands and yawned like a cat, "It seems that I don't like him. you."

Ron quietly mouthed to Neville: Who would like this chick?

Neville blinked confusedly. He didn't understand. He was focused on filling his stomach. He was an excellent and pragmatic rice cook.

Harry was speechless and choked, and after a while he answered: "Even if we like each other, if we can see each other every day, we probably won't have feelings for each other, right?"

Linde, who returned from his morning run, touched the heads of the four children and sat next to them with a plate of peanut butter sandwiches.

"what's the topic?"

Harry handed the newspaper over, "Look."

Hermione propped up her cheeks and said, "We were talking just now. People who like each other have been together for a long time and they don't feel the same anymore."

Linde chuckled, "That's not necessarily true. At least when I see a girl I like, I will feel happy no matter how long it takes."

The little classmates around me pricked up their ears, wanting to hear some gossip.

Hermione eagerly inquired about Lynd's relationship status.

"Kid, don't ask so many questions."

Linde responded casually. Although the four little ones were very dissatisfied, they could not make him change his words.

He browsed the article, and the content reminded him of an old friend, or rather, an old dog.

Rita Skeeter, the history of this world has completely erased her existence. Logically speaking, this report will never be seen again.

However, the paradox of history is that some seemingly fundamental changes can still make old things happen again. Just like Rita disappears, the Daily Prophet will still choose a new Rita and produce one piece of false news after another.

Lind decided to meet the young reporter named Jennifer. (End of chapter)
