This Hogwarts isn't normal.

#976 - Magic home appliance brand for pure-blooded gentlemen

The sky cleared, the rain stopped, and a certain young master felt like he was back in business.

The *Daily Prophet* had stopped reporting on him, and Vincent, seeing his smug look, directly threw a set of higher-intensity combat training at him.

Perhaps he had been beaten too many times, because this time he was bouncing around again just two days after settling down.

"Come on! Wayne, if you have the guts, kill me!"

"Stubborn as a mule" and "easily forgetting pain once it's gone" are perfect descriptions for people like Draco.

What could Vincent do? Of course, he continued to increase the intensity.

However, the joyful campus life only lasted for a week, because on Tuesday the 8th, the wealthy Lucius Malfoy once again booked the entire front page of the *Daily Prophet*.

And his purpose was very simple, just to put up a big 'GG'.

"Led by the Malfoy family, in conjunction with the Parkinson, Nott, Zabini, and Flint families, the 'Nobili' magical appliance brand was officially established today…"

Vincent, eating breakfast, continued reading with a blank expression.

"'Nobili' is an innovative brand that aims to lead new trends in the magical world, improve the quality of life for wizards, and bring more entertainment projects to everyone."

Original brand?

When it comes to shamelessness, you have to look at the pure-blood lords. This is clearly an OEM assembly brand.

The brand name isn't too bad; the Latin word "nobili" contains the meanings of nobility and prestige, perfectly matching their image.

It sounds quite impressive at first, and if there wasn't a major competitor, the future British magical appliance market should be theirs.

At noon, Vincent received a video call from Bagman.

"Mr. Wayne, someone wants to secure the naming rights for the Triwizard Tournament live broadcast."

Without thinking, it must be those lords.

Vincent thought seriously and didn't refuse immediately.

Willing to spend a lot of money to secure the live broadcast naming rights is enough to show that they are determined to win the new market.

If he guessed correctly, they probably wanted to officially launch their products before the first task of the Triwizard Tournament began.

"Mr. Bagman, let's forget about the naming rights. After all, this is an officially organized event, and too much commercialism will shift people's focus."

Bagman on the projection screen looked regretful, "Indeed, then I will reject Nobili."

"Wait-" Vincent's lips curled up slightly, "Mr. Bagman, I just want the live broadcast to be purer, and I don't reject them inserting advertisements during the event."

According to the agreement, Wayne Enterprises can receive all advertising revenue. Since the wealthy lords are determined to win, they will definitely spend a lot of money on promotion.

Although advertising isn't as effective as naming rights, it's better than booking the entire front page of the *Daily Prophet* every day.

Bagman was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Wayne, aren't you particularly disgusted with them?"

Vincent shrugged, "Mr. Bagman, there is a fair trade principle in the Muggle world. Besides, I am a businessman, how can I refuse the opportunity to make big money?"

"Oh." Bagman responded softly, "Then I will have them contact you directly."

Before hanging up, his eyes became extremely complicated.

There was surprise, incomprehension, but more of it was contempt.

Vincent didn't care too much; it's normal for officials to look down on merchants.

However, Bagman's transformation is indeed great. If he were still that gambling addict, he would definitely shamelessly act as an intermediary to earn commissions.

A few minutes later, Bagman's video call came again.

But this time, it was Lucius with a false smile on his face.

Vincent looked around and walked into an empty classroom.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wayne."

Vincent felt extremely comfortable hearing Lucius's reluctant "Mr. Wayne."

"Good afternoon-" His smile was full of mockery, "Mr. Malfoy, I didn't expect that I could actually help you, a great lord."

Lucius narrowed his eyes instantly, but quickly showed a false smile again, "Not at all, Mr. Wayne, I sincerely want to cooperate with you this time."

Vincent put away his mocking smile, "It doesn't matter whether it's sincere or not. Based on the principle of fair trade, I will not reject any brand that wants to cooperate with Wayne Enterprises."

Lucius stopped pretending after hearing this, "Good, we want all the advertisements for the live Triwizard Tournament for our Nobili brand!"

The wealthy pure-blood lords speak differently; they want to take all the advertisements at once.

Vincent didn't give an immediate answer.

He knew that Sirius was going to establish a new brand to打击马尔福family, and for emotional and rational reasons, he shouldn't give an answer now.

"Mr. Malfoy, I still say the same thing. All commercial cooperation of our Wayne Enterprises is based on the principle of fair trade. It is impossible for you to take all the advertisements."

Lucius showed a 'sure enough' expression, "Mr. Wayne, what exactly do you want?"

The corners of Vincent's mouth outlined a charming smile, "If I let you take all the advertisements for the event live broadcast, it would be no different from taking the naming rights."

His eyes were particularly sharp, as if he could pierce the opposite side through the projection screen, "I will hold a bidding meeting on Saturday, and I will invite all brands and companies who want to cooperate with Wayne Enterprises for advertising."

A bidding meeting means the highest bidder wins. In terms of wealth, the Nobili brand far surpasses any individual or collective in all walks of life in the magical world.

For Lucius, things that can be solved with Galleons are not a problem at all.

He slightly raised his chin, "Mr. Wayne, we will be there on time."

Vincent stared meaningfully at Lucius in the projection screen.

Compared to the false face just now, he preferred this arrogant posture that belonged exclusively to pure-blood lords.

"I will look forward to that day, Mr. Malfoy."

After cutting off the communication, Vincent called Sirius.

After waiting for a while, the other party answered.

"Vincent? What's the matter? I'm busy now."

Behind Sirius were rows of alchemy production lines, and Old Shafiq and the others were also there.

"There's something, and it's a good thing."

After explaining the situation in general, Sirius's eyes lit up.

"You want us to participate in your bidding meeting?"

"With such a good opportunity, I believe you will definitely not miss it."

The combined financial resources of the Black family and the Shafiq family are at least evenly matched with the Nobili brand, if not exceeding it.

Moreover, the new brand that Sirius is preparing to establish adopts Wayne Enterprises' universal solution, which saves costs and greatly reduces research and development costs. The final selling price will definitely be much lower than Nobili, whose name contains the meaning of nobility and prestige.

Besides, the bidding meeting doesn't necessarily have to win the bid. Simply raising the price to disgust the other side is also excellent.
