Chapter 518 Recording and Broadcasting System
'There is still talent in the Ministry.'

In Professor McGonagall's office, Andrew listened to the speech of the new Director of the Ministry of Magic and evaluated it in his mind.

Yes, every year a bunch of students from Hogwarts go to the Ministry of Magic. Although many of them are related, not all of them are good-for-nothings, let alone others.

The new director, who was supposed to be an honest referee, came to Professor McGonagall's office to discuss the most important thing - the Ministry of Magic also wanted to purchase a series of dream weaving items.

To be more precise, they are not purchasing the technology separately, but are planning to set up a new company to manage things like dream playback.

The main content is probably to broadcast the minister's speech every day, introduce the international situation, and then insert Quidditch match recordings and miscellaneous entertainment programs.

There aren't many true idiots among wizards - originally, the means of propaganda were limited, so the Daily Prophet just took it. Now that dream beads and supporting technologies have appeared, the Fudge government has directly decided to establish its own media channels.

The magic world actually has sufficient technical reserves in this area, but has always been limited by problems with reserves and broadcasting - the emergence of the Dream Beads just makes up for this shortcoming.

In fact, short-term memory storage, slow motion and analysis have become very mature, and have even become cheap for civilian use. For example, during the Quidditch World Cup, Andrew bought a telescope that could replay games and perform slow motion analysis. The reason why that thing was not expanded to short video communication was because the technology was not mature.

The people in the Ministry of Magic were not idle some time ago. When the dream weaving technique was still only circulated privately and not officially released, the Logistics Department handed over the feasibility report of the new technology to Fudge's office.

"So, Mr. Taylor," Director Rupert asked Andrew, who was called out of the classroom, in a friendly manner, "Do you have any technical guidance in this regard?"

"Isn't it a little immature... Although the dream reserve has been solved, the transmission method is still unprocessed. I have experimented a lot, but it is not something that can be spread so easily."

Andrew shook his head.

Other homework is easy to copy, but how can he compile dreams?
He wasn't that good at this - he knew a little about the principles of television and even the Internet, but that was completely different from dreams.

Either we deeply analyze dreams, break them down into the most basic components, and then study the problem of transmission, or we rely on Muggle technology and create the most basic code to transmit it through Muggle technology. Otherwise, this problem will never be solved.

"It doesn't matter. We have a sophisticated Floo network. The Ministry of Magic will send special personnel to broadcast dreams on a regular basis every day."

...

???

This is too outrageous!
Director Rupert's remarks confused Andrew - No, what's the difference between what you are doing and relying on trucks to transport servers to spread data?
How to deal with timeliness?
Even for him, it would take more than ten minutes to weave a decent dream now. Even if the Floo Network is invincible, it would still take more than ten minutes to spread the news...

"It's not unacceptable. It's better than before. Besides, this is a bigger scene than I expected."

Andrew didn't think he could figure out dream coding in a short time. He was just an entry-level person in these areas. Although it was a bit of a stretch to count on the wisdom of future generations, it seemed possible to believe in the power of the people in the magical world.

It is always right to popularize the science first so as to trigger discussion and progress.

And it’s not like the timeliness can’t be improved. “Then I have no objection,” Andrew shook his head, “but I have a half-baked suggestion - maybe we can refer to the Muggle news and try to reduce the time required for dream weaving, and just add the important news and pictures.”

"Of course, this matter will be taken seriously, Mr. Taylor."

Rupert nodded seriously. "Then the Ministry of Magic will set up news screenings in magical fairs and villages such as Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, and begin trial broadcasts of our dream news. Do you have any suggestions, Mr. Taylor?"

He wasn't being modest - in fact, every word Andrew said was carefully recorded by him, without even using an assistant.

"No, probably the ones listed above, but I think it's better to strengthen the review, after all, it's easy for loopholes to appear in dream fabrications."

"Well, I will tell the ministry," Rupert nodded. "Also, Minister Fudge will visit Hogwarts during the warrior selection, and I hope that the dream of that day can be broadcast..."

"I'm sorry, I can only add some clear photos to the dream. I'm still trying to convert the fuzzy dream memory, but I'm not optimistic... The memory is too complex and precise... I can't handle it in the short term."

Andrew shook his head. This really wasn't possible. His spell reserves were too low, and his skills were all pieced together from spare parts, which made upgrading even more difficult.

"To be honest, I'm not sure if I can do it myself. Maybe it would be better to publish the relevant technology and hope that others can improve it."

Mr. Rupert's face fell a little for a moment, but he quickly put it back on very seriously - the two people in front of him were not looking at his face.

To put it bluntly, Professor McGonagall is fine. If Mr. Taylor makes some of the mistakes of a young man who is full of youthful vigor and publicly says that he is not good at communication and knows nothing about technology, then he will be targeted by challengers before he can even secure his position...

"Photos are fine too. At least they are much better than newspapers. Our magical world is getting better and better, isn't it?"

He stood up with a smile on his face. "Professor McGonagall, thank you very much for Hogwarts' continued support for the Ministry of Magic. In addition, thank you again Mr. Taylor for promoting the progress of the wizarding world and supporting the work of the Ministry of Magic."

"I have to go back to the ministry first. I have a feeling that this Triwizard Tournament will be the best in history."

"I hope so."

Andrew watched Mr. Rupert leave, then hurriedly said goodbye to Professor McGonagall, "Sorry, Professor, I have to go back to class."

"Go ahead. There's no other way. You really are an expert in this area, otherwise I wouldn't have called you out of class," the professor nodded. "Although it's the History of Magic, it's actually very important."

"Of course, professor, history is the best way to pass on wisdom."

Andrew nodded, then quickly ran back to class.

Although he had slept through History of Magic before, that was because Professor Binns's course was so bad. He usually did a lot of research - it was just that it was quite related to the Astronomy Tower...
