Chapter 33: The Daily Prophet = The Navy, Part I

"The purpose of the spell is to make the magic in the body resonate with the magic in the outside world. Spells in the usual sense of www.biquge.info are composed of four or five standard syllables and one or two standard gestures, and individual powerful spells require more syllables and more and more complex gestures to complete, and the oldest spells have no syllables and only gestures. “

"There are forty-two types of standard syllables, which can be divided into four main categories, and they are ......"

"There are 27 types of standard gestures, and they can be divided into ...... from difficult to easy."

"There are three types of standard syllables that the first type of standard syllable can be used in spells, corresponding to three different types of spells, and they can be combined with twelve standard gestures to create different effects......"

"Merlin, damn it, why does this book cover all this stuff in such detail?! It's just a gesture, is there any difference between using the middle finger or the ring finger?! Affect the effect of the enchantment? Hell, it just made the difference between my glow spell going from illuminating three yards to illuminating two-and-a-half yards! ”

"Oh my God, why do I have to carry this stuff so desperately!"

In the early morning Hogwarts Great Hall, there was another rolling wail.

The sight of the children munching on bread while carrying books seemed pitiful, causing Dumbledore to twist restlessly in his seat.

"Minerva, how many days has it been?" He quietly asked McGonagall, the head of Gryffindor and professor of Transfiguration.

Professor McGonagall counted, "It's been six days. ”

Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief: "So, tomorrow is the exam for the third year of Gryffindor?" You should be able to relax a little after the exam, right? ”

Professor McGonagall said with a look of pity, "No, Headmaster Dumbledore...... According to Professor Mingyuan's course schedule, it seems that every day in the future will be like this. Tomorrow's exam is over, and next week there will be the same exam, and tomorrow's endorsement will not be quieter, the poor Hufflepuff will take the exam the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will be Slytherin. Originally, the auditorium would be much quieter when the Ravenclaws were going to take the exam, but then the Gryffindor kids had to take a second exam. “

Dumbledore's brow twitched, "Merlin is on top, it's cruel." “

Professor Snape pursed his lips and said with some irony, "The consequences of shifting their reading time to night tours for a long time, and suddenly making it difficult for them to let the trolls live like normal people." Look at Ravenclaw over there, at least you can have a quiet breakfast. “

At this time, Ming Yuan came to the auditorium with a smile on his face, and sat in his professorship in front of the resentful and crazy eyes of countless students.

"Professor Mingyuan, Professor Mingyuan!" Dumbledore said softly.

Ming Yuan seemed to know what Dumbledore was thinking, and he smiled: "Headmaster Dumbledore, if you think about it carefully, don't you think this scene is what the students should be?" What will they do if they are so young and don't learn much? ”

Then he smiled again: "Of course, I'm not that impersonal. At least during Quidditch, I'll keep the exam frequency to bi-weekly to give them time to play Quidditch. ”

Snape sneered, "Quidditch? The savage and unskillful sport of holding a ball and slamming around on the grass, if you have that time, it is better to read more books than anything else. ”

Ming Yuan chuckled quietly, and then slowly tasted his breakfast under the resentful gaze of the students.

……

Two hours later.

Knock, knock, two knocks sounded in Mingyuan's office.

Ming Yuan, who was immersed in taking notes and writing a plan, raised his head and smiled.

"The door is unlocked, please come in."

A woman with gold-rimmed glasses walked in, her temperament was very capable, holding a shorthand quill and a thick wad of parchment, dressed as a journalist.

"Hello, you must be Professor Mingyuan, right? Merlin, let me marvel at you, you look younger than the legend! “

The female reporter gave a sincere admiration, and Ming Yuan smiled and said, "I've also heard of you, Miss Skeeter, a cutting-edge reporter for the Daily Prophet, who is famous for discovering big news that no one knows. “

Both of them had smiles on their faces and exchanged a tacit look at each other.

Miss Skeeter coughed lightly twice, then picked up the quill, and said with a straight face: "Professor Mingyuan, two years ago, you were awarded the Order of Merlin of the First Class for your important contributions to alchemy and the structure of magic, and I have been following you ever since. Unfortunately, I didn't get the right to interview you that time, and I regretted it for a month. But this time, as soon as I heard that you had started your education reform project at Hogwarts, I rushed over to hear your thoughts, I wonder if I have the honor of doing so? “

Ming Yuan smiled and said, "Of course, it is quite a surprise for me that such a thing can be favored by the Prophet Daily. In fact, I guess I was unprepared. “

Skeeter tried his pen as he brushed, "So, can I ask you why you came to Hogwarts in the first place?" “

Ming Yuan said in a reminiscent tone, "Ah, I specifically asked to come here to teach because I longed for the sacred status of Hogwarts. Frankly speaking, in our ideology, education is the foundation of the country. For me, who was deeply influenced by this kind of thinking, how could I not want to come and see Hogwarts after hearing about such a sacred and exalted status? “

"When I was a student, I longed for the professors, and although I was away from education for a while because of a coincidence, I always longed for it. When I found out that there was a vacancy for a professorship at Hogwarts, I immediately applied to get a feel for the highest institution in the wizarding world, but ......"

Ming Yuan showed a disappointed expression, and Skeeter picked it up at the right time: "But? Is it true that the Hogwarts scene doesn't meet your expectations? “

Ming Yuan nodded slightly: "Indeed, I never thought that the legendary Hogwarts would be like this. ”

"Can you imagine? On my first day at Hogwarts, I didn't feel the enthusiasm of the students. ”

"The library is full of all kinds of classics, countless sages and giants have left their wisdom there, but there are very few students in the library?!"

"The classrooms were also empty, whether it was a potions classroom or a herb classroom, a place for students to practice outside of class, but no one remembered it at all."

"And the professors' offices, I would have expected to see a long line of busy professors waiting to answer their questions, but all I saw was a deserted door."

"And the knowledgeable professors, I thought that each professor would be treated with the respect that was commensurate with their status, but what did I see? In the History of Magic class, Professor Binns recounts the details of history, while the students below them are asleep, or even don't even come to class? In the herbal medicine class, Professor Sprout, an expert in herbology, who once resurrected several cherished ancient plants, was actually looked down upon by the students because of his gentle personality? In Potions class, Professor Snape, who received Merlin's 2nd Order last year for his great contribution to the Wolf Poison Potion, was secretly called a bat? ”

Ming Yuan's voice gradually rose, and he showed a feeling of indignation: "Can you agree, the students of Hogwarts are like this?!" ”

Skeeter shook his head vigorously and said in an exaggerated voice, "Ah, is that so?" Oh my God, that wasn't the case when I was studying! At that time, the wizarding world was in a recession, and our generation was studying hard, for fear of being eliminated in the future! ”

Ming Yuan's tone was deep: "That's why I came up with the idea of carrying out educational reform at Hogwarts. ”

"In order to cultivate a serious attitude and a love and respect for knowledge, I am determined to start with my Defense Against the Dark Arts class and develop a rigorous study plan for my students to ensure that they will succeed in their studies and have a skill in the future and will not fail in the fierce competition."

Skeeter said in an admiring tone: "Ah, I can already imagine that such a measure must have been greatly opposed and questioned, right? “

Ming Yuan said gloomily: "Yes, children of this age rarely think about the future, and the bad habits they have developed in Hogwarts for a long time also make them have no intention of learning. To be honest, such a reform is really quite a difficult thing to do. “

"I think I need support, support from society, especially from parents of students."

Skeeter sympathetically said, "Oh my God, it would be terrible if such a wonderful reform had to be abandoned because the children were only concerned with their immediate nature." “

Ming Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, this kind of reform has only begun in the first place, and it has only been less than a week since it began, but Miss Skeeter, you have already felt it when you came to Hogwarts." It's all over the place, right? To be honest, Gryffindor has a student who used to skip class a lot, and he often plagiarized his homework. But now, under the influence of the hard work atmosphere of the people around him, and under the strict requirements of the system, he can only pick up books, and now he has regained the diligence he had when he first entered Hogwarts! I think this should be enough for parents to see that such a system is effective. “

At this time, Justin knocked on the door: "Professor, are you looking for me?" “

Even at such times, he still held a sticky note full of words in his hand, and his lips moved to recite esoteric magical knowledge.

The door opened, and Ming Yuan smiled and said, "It's Justin, come and sit down, I haven't looked for you for a few days, come and ask about the situation." Ah, this is Miss Skeeter, and she's eager to talk to you. “

Skeeter smiled and nodded to Justin.

……

It's night.

Ming Yuan quickly wrote in his notes: "If reform is needed, propaganda is an indispensable thing. ”

"When a policy is supported by the overwhelming majority of the population, then to oppose it is to oppose the people, and few people or institutions will do that."

"If you want to promote it, it's best to make an agreement with an influential newspaper or other media to have an exclusive interview on the front page, so that enough people can see it."

"Of course, don't forget to say hello to newspapers and reporters in advance, ask more questions that should be asked, and don't ask things that shouldn't be asked."

"If you want to carry out reform in Konoha, as long as you choose the communication media, then this method is equally effective."
