Chapter 139 Did I warn me?
“What a boring test…”
Andrew left Dumbledore's office disappointed.
Although he fully understood the use of a series of measurements to determine transfiguration ability and magic response, it was too rigid and boring.
The high-level magic power of a third-year student, the comprehensive transformation level of a high-level fourth-year student - the numerical values are not bad, but this judgment sounds too strange!
That was Dumbledore, how could he use such rigid terms to describe the results of his so-called test methods! This is neither Gryffindor nor Dumbledore!
Magic and transformation are put first and last. This name is so strange!
The average level of the students is taken, and then divided into three levels: high, average, and low. The students' performance is comprehensively judged through the impact of several classic transformation techniques on different materials and the level of magic power.
The judgment should be very accurate so far. It can even be used as a supplement to the OWLs exam after adding a few details. It is also very useful in daily teaching.
But, again, this is too...
A gust of cool wind blew, and Andrew was stunned for a moment - no, why was he bothered with this?
You must have been with Gryffindor guys too much and got infected!
After making this judgment, he decisively gave up commenting on the test - well, the current one is enough!
You can even celebrate the growth rate of your magic power, because when your magic power reaches the average level of fifth grade, you can try some advanced transformation techniques. At that time, the door to transformation techniques will be completely opened to him.
Of course, magic also needs to be broken down - Andrew just listened to Dumbledore's judgment of magic inside.
The lower limit for inclusion in the Book of Access is the low magic level of the first grade, and wizards who cannot pass can only teach themselves through correspondence courses and other textbooks or even become squibs.
After that, all averages are calculated by taking the average of last year's students who were able to achieve an E at the end of the semester. Low means that most courses can achieve an A standard, and high is an average of students who can achieve an O in half of the subjects.
The power of a spell is determined by four aspects: the student's magic power, magic talent, knowledge of related fields, and proficiency in the spell.
But magic talent is the most troublesome thing - to put it simply, good talent means that you are naturally suitable for this type of spellcasting, and you can even leapfrog and use theoretically impossible spellcasting with low magic power. However, if you have improper talent, even if you follow the steps, Come on, there's not a single wrong move. When you stir the potion to combine it, the little bit of magic power can explode the crucible...
And Dumbledore even took this variable into consideration.
…
In short, although it seemed to be a temporary move, in fact a rigorous enough judgment system was born, and he might even be the first person to be tested.
'But, I always feel like I haven't thought clearly...'
Andrew thought for a long time and finally gave up - basically no work today, just in time to test the transfiguration experiment after the restless period.
But a week later, in Professor McGonagall's office, Andrew waited for the follow-up.
"What?"
"Yes, you are responsible for receiving interviews from Magic Legend Magazine and then reviewing the manuscripts."
Professor McGonagall looked matter-of-fact.
Shouldn't this bold magazine be hoisted up and hung on the tower?
What is it like to be interviewed and review manuscripts?
And professor, please give me the manuscript...
Well...this job is indeed the assistant's, and it's really shameful for the principal to review manuscripts.
Still wrong...can I not tell if that magazine is nonsense?
"After all, it is a positive report, and there is an interview transcript, and overall it is pretty good..."
The professor's face twisted, and Andrew could see clearly, "It's quite positive, and the overall encouragement effect on students is also good..."
"After all, I prefer the story of Magic Legend to Rita's nonsense." Therefore, under the background of the big reporter, Magic Legend can be considered half a good person.
Very good, the logic is smooth - the so-called hierarchical division is suddenly clear.
Always give yourself some exclusive news, and at the same time make Dumbledore not look so idle - so Professor McGonagall thought hard to make the headmaster seem to be very concerned about the education system.
It made sense that these assistants didn't know anything, and everything made sense.
"Manuscripts must be positive. If Albus said something on the side... that could easily cause ambiguity, communicate with the reporter and erase that part.
“It is best to supervise students to learn. When communicating with reporters, you should ask them to pay attention to maintaining the original style of the manuscript and not to change it at will.
"Albus cannot learn black magic during the release of the new book, and cannot communicate with illegal groups..."
Professor...you say that, I feel a little weak in the legs...
Although Andrew could confirm that it had not been exposed since he was still in the chair instead of in mid-air, this kind of message still made him feel like he was being caught and hung.
"That's about it. The interview will start the day after tomorrow. The location will be Dumbledore's office. You should prepare well and communicate with the other party about the time and content limits."
I'm so prepared, professor.
Professor McGonagall left the office after giving instructions to Andrew - looking in that direction, he should have warned Dumbledore not to make some jokes during the interview.
But Andrew couldn't laugh.
It's so scary.
But the bigger blow came later.
Just when Andrew stabilized his mind and prepared to confront reporters, an owl flew to the college lounge and delivered a letter to him.
The content of the letter is very simple.
I would like to convey the editorial department's concern and give you a friendly reminder of the new manuscript. Enclosed is a Gringotts money order with a beautiful face value and a piece of news that almost frightened Andrew.
The magazine has already negotiated with Hogwarts. The reporter will go to Hogwarts immediately to conduct an interview with Dumbledore. I hope he will compile and publish the interview transcript and give a preview of the new book.
Well, perfect action.
Use interviews to reduce friction, give the author two strong draft reminders, make the interview draft closer to the style of the original text, and also promote the new book.
Even the questions in the interview script are mentioned - don't worry about what questions to add to the interview script, just edit the questions you want to add, as long as they don't exceed the interview restrictions at Hogwarts.
Of course, I really want to ask, so feel free to add it when replying to the letter, as long as it doesn't violate the rules.
I'm really not afraid of death...
But have you considered my feelings?
Am I warning myself?
Did this reveal that everyone was hanging and playing with windmills under the tower?
Besides, is there any selling point in writing Dumbledore’s story? Nothing I've made up looks more like it was written by Dumbledore than that. The original title is simply...
Um?
Huh?
This?
