The three hundred and fortieth chapter is about to start Harry Potter

ps: The fourth update today!

As a live reporter of BBC TV 1, Robert Mitterrand has always had a keen sense of smell. After learning about Harry Potter, he tried his best to convince his boss and won a broadcast car. He had a premonition that Ryan Jenkins might have a big move today.

Although the other party has no British nationality, the vast majority of the British public regard him as their own. Since Princess Diana's death, he has definitely been the most eye-catching public figure in the UK. When publishing newspapers about him, sales will always be much higher than usual.

The only shame is that the other party was too busy, so busy that he rarely returned to his second hometown, London, to see it.

Just five minutes ago, the handsome bodyguard suddenly came out and announced that in view of the concerns of the press, a small press conference would be held in the vestibule of the villa, which was about Harry Potter's related matters.

Since BBC TV is standing behind it, and BBC TV is affiliated with Ryan Jenkins' partner News Group, Robert Mitterrand was invited immediately. Unlike other journalists in the industry, he almost made a fortune for a few representative places.

"Mr. Mitterrand, the phone is connected." His assistant handed over the phone.

After receiving the mobile phone, Robert Mitterrand greeted him in the simplest way, he almost yelled, "Coles, I hope BBC1 can immediately broadcast the news that I transmitted from the past. What? Impossible? The program schedule is very tight? I don't care about this, I want my interview to be live now! Do you know who I am interviewing?"

"Robert, I think you should understand that even if you are standing in Buckingham Palace now, the interviewee is Her Majesty the Queen or His Royal Highness, I cannot change the program at will." The voice from the phone was filled with the inherent stereotypes of the British.

"Bastard, Coles Ryan Jenkins is about to hold a press conference! We are going to grab the first report!"

"What?" The voice opposite was obviously no longer as stubborn as before.

"The rumors about Harry Potter should be true. Ryan Jenkins is about to hold a press conference and will likely announce the adaptation of the movie! Do you understand? That's Ryan Jenkins and his "Harry Potter"! That's a novel with sales of more than 300 million copies worldwide!"

"You wait, I...I'll contact you right away? How much more will it start?"

"Ten minutes!"

"I promise! In ten minutes, bbc1 will definitely show your picture!" The stereotype in the voice disappeared without a trace.

After hanging up the phone, Robert Mitterrand ordered his team to check the equipment immediately and take out the rigorous attitude of the princess' funeral in the live broadcast last year to treat this small press conference.

After checking the work of his subordinates, Mitterrand ignored the graphic media reporters who were still competing for quotas, stared at the door of the villa and anxiously waited for the moment when it opened.

As a journalist who prefers entertainment, he knows very well about the owner of this villa and understands that his and his works can easily catch a lot of attention, not to mention that this is the news about the adaptation of the Harry Potter novel into a movie.

This is the most successful all-age novel in the world, and it is also the most representative work of the British Empire after entering the 1990s. The British have waited for it to become a movie for too long.

Now there is finally the exact news, the only regret is, why is Ryan? Jenkins not a British man?

"Don't you think your decision is a bit sudden?" Taylor sat on the sofa in the living room of the villa, looking at Ryan curiously. She knew very well that before coming to England, her good brother had no plans for Harry Potter.

"Dear, this is an opportunity." Ryan had changed into a formal suit and looked through the window at the busy staff in the garden. "Since the British media is willing to promote us for free, why should we turn off their kindness?"

"No wonder Nat always said you are more like a businessman." The little guy frowned.

"Okay, my dear." Ryan walked over and rubbed her blonde hair. "Stay here quietly, I'll be back in a while."

Sitting at the small table in the villa, Ryan raised his hand to signal quiet, waiting for more than a dozen reporters to sit around other tables, and asked the staff to serve coffee. Those who could come in were reporters from the media with huge influence. In addition to a few photographers, large camera equipment with bbc marks were also set up.

A bbc reporter named Robert Mitterrand sent a few words through George. Ryan nodded to him and quietly waited for the staff of bbc TV to complete the live broadcast.

Ryan was not in a hurry, but the reporters at the scene understood that it was useless to be anxious. Anyway, they had already come in, and it was just a difference between a little earlier and a little later. Why do you have to be a villain? If you are driven out, it would be a loss.

What's more, what they are tasting is the authentic top-quality Blue Mountain Coffee and Zhengshan Xiaozhong Black Tea.

"I invited you here today to have some face-to-face communication. We don't have to divide the interviews and the interviewees. We are like old friends, and we will chat as afternoon tea."

Ryan spoke slowly. The reporter who could enter here would naturally not be a paparazzi. His words instantly brought the distance between the two sides closer, "Everyone knows that I used to be here..."

He pointed to the villa behind and said something he didn't even believe in, "I have lived here for more than two years and have a different relationship with this city. Without this special experience and the influence of British culture at the time, it would be impossible for the entire Harry Potter series to come later..."

These words made the British in the scene feel light on their faces. When they were excited about Harry Potter's novel with a strong British style, they couldn't help but be confused because the author was not an authentic British.

"Ryan, can you give some exact news? Are you planning to bring the Harry Potter series to the big screen?" Perhaps the relaxed atmosphere in the venue infected everyone, or perhaps Ryan's extremely friendly side played a role, and these reporters obviously lacked sharpness.

"In fact, I have been planning this work since the day the novel ended." Ryan raised the teacup to the reporter. The other party smiled embarrassedly and continued to ask, "Is it convenient to reveal the specific timetable?"

"So that." Ryan put the teacup on the table. "After "Titanic" and "Jurassic Park 2", everyone should be able to see that the post-production technology of the movie has changed drastically. I think the conditions for making the Harry Potter movies are ripe."

Hearing him say this, these reporters were shocked.

"If everything goes well, the crew will be officially launched early next year, and then auditions will be held for characters including Harry and Hermione, plus filming and post-production. I expect the first episode of the movie "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" to be completed at the earliest by the end of 2000 or early 2001."

Just after making the decision, Ryan considered a lot of issues in a short period of time and also planned to reveal some ideas.

"Will the shooting location be chosen in the UK? Will all British actors be used as the newspaper said?" Robert Mitterrand asked everyone's most concerned questions.

"In my plan, Britain is definitely the first choice, otherwise, so many landmark buildings alone would be a huge expense."

Ryan's smile infected everyone like sunshine, causing constant laughter in the audience.

He continued, "Actors, I plan to use British or Irish actors as much as possible, as the newspaper says, can you imagine Dumbledore and Voldemort with Mississippi accent or Texas accent?"

Before the reporters could be happy, Ryan's words suddenly turned, "But these are just the first choice..."

"Why?" Someone was surprised.

"During the shooting, a large number of underage actors will be used. I think you may not know much about the British "Children's Labor Law", which has extremely strict regulations on the shooting time of child actors. If you follow the requirements of this law, even in five years, it will be difficult for you to see the Harry Potter movies."

Ryan's plan is very simple. He first lets these media make a splash, and then lets his public relations team lobby the House of Commons, which should be easier.

"What if the House of Commons is willing to amend relevant regulations?" These reporters said very well.

"Then you will see the crew and related auditions of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in London early next year." Ryan said confidently.

The reporters quickly thought in their minds how to write relevant reports. Few people who could sit here were fools, and Ryan didn't hide his intentions, but they planned to do it according to his hidden meaning.

As for why? This is the Harry Potter series that has caused a sensation in the entire Western world.

At that time, the crew will definitely become the center of the entire entertainment industry. As long as they enter the UK, how many opportunities will they bring for hype? How many headlines will it bring? How many related benefits will it bring?

For a long time, they no longer have to worry about headlines.

With the live broadcast signal from bbc TV, this small press conference reached the UK and even the entire Western world. Coupled with the subsequent hype of various media, the whirlwind of the Harry Potter series blew up again.

The most excited are naturally the British, and the most excited among the British are those children around ten years old. Since they will choose to play actors such as Harry Potter and Hermione Granger in the UK at that time, wouldn’t that mean they have a chance?
