In this world, smart people always did things more efficiently than stupid people.
Even if the quality of communication was affected by mood, smart people often firmly remembered their principles when doing things, as well as what they wanted to do and what they wanted to achieve.
Jon was in such a state now.
Age was no longer important. When he sat here and began to negotiate with Dumbledore in a very ordinary tone, he was no longer a simple student in Dumbledore's heart.
Jon turned this matter from a trust into a deal.
When a matter became a deal, no matter how big the gap between the two sides was in various aspects, at least in this matter, the two sides were equal.
For Jon, this was the first step of him turning from a chess piece to a chess player, but for Dumbledore, this might be an unwise choice.
However, Dumbledore did not think it was not worth it, as long as Jon grasped the scale of the conditions.
So when Jon said that sentence, Dumbledore was stunned.
At first, he was not prepared for Jon's conditions, but he was not surprised. As an amiable principal, he was often asked for help by students.
And he usually did not refuse.
Now, it was even more so. From all aspects, Jon was already the best candidate to fill his vacancy.
"Tell me about it. If I can help, I naturally won't refuse."
Jon looked at Dumbledore's smiling face, and his thoughts began to automatically arrange themselves according to the degree of importance.
But he still pretended to be embarrassed, "First, I want to ask you to write a letter for me."
"Write a letter?"
"Yes, to the Black Wizard Association in America."
Jon described himself as pitiful, but he was the victim in this matter.
"In Muggle's society, I have a company headquartered in America."
Jon organized his words, wanting to make this matter more tragic, but Dumbledore had already guessed the general situation when he heard the Black Wizard Association in America. Out of politeness, he listened patiently.
"At that time, I had not yet come into contact with the Black Wizard Association in America, so after comprehensive consideration, I set up the headquarters there. And because of my age, the company was not directly managed by me, and it was under my father's name. But shortly before school started, I went there to take a look."
While talking, he observed Dumbledore's reaction. Of course, Dumbledore did not make any reaction.
So, that should be the end of the story.
Jon changed the topic and went straight to the point.
"When I stayed in America, there were no problems. Because I used a fake identity, it should not be very eye-catching, but it was still exposed. After I left, something happened to my manager.
Under the diagnosis of the psychiatrist, his indicators were very good, but in some aspects, he appeared to be very abnormal, and his abnormality was the same as my … abnormality. "
After Jon finished speaking, Dumbledore completely understood.
"If that's the case, then these Black Wizards are really too much. I think I can write two letters for you, one to the Black Magician Association, and the other to the American Ministry of Magic, and ask them to send someone to help your manager recover.
Those Black Wizards are really too much. Not only did they violate the Confidentiality Act, but they also violated other laws, but … "
Dumbledore wrote down this matter on the paper in hand and said at the same time, "You should find a reliable and powerful Wizard to protect your manager, and this Wizard can't violate the Confidentiality Act and leak our information."
"I think I have a candidate, Professor. You don't have to worry about this."
Jon's mind turned, and he thought of Lohat. No one was more suitable than this writer, and the American side was more suitable for writing a book. The prosperity of the metropolis … should be very attractive to that playboy Lohat, right?
When he went back, he would write a letter to Lohat, and if it did not work, he would say no.
"Now that this matter is settled, do you have anything else?"
Dumbledore could see that Chown was obviously not only preparing for this matter to ask for help or to negotiate terms. But since it had already come to this point, there was no need to hesitate. It would be easier to solve all the problems at once.
"Actually, you know about this matter too."
Jon was talking about Joanne, "I'm collaborating with a special investigator from MI0 to write a book."
"Are you talking about the novel with Mr. Potter as the main character?"
Dumbledore's interest was piqued, "Actually, I'm a little curious about this. Why do you want to write a book like this?"
"It's not that I want to, but it's Joanne, Madam Rowling's idea. I don't know how much you know about MI0, but it's obvious that this organization knows a lot about our world."
"Of course, our world is not completely confidential from the Muggle Society. After all, as you can see, there are so many little Muggle Wizards in our school."
Dumbledore stuffed a snack into his mouth, "Of course I know about the organization you're talking about. In fact, I have to keep in touch with that organization from time to time. They're part of the Confidentiality Act."
"Yes, you're right."
Jon casually agreed, then continued, "In fact, Joanne wants to write a fantasy story based on the world of magic. The reason why she chose Mr. Potter as the main character is because Mr. Potter is the most representative. His identity is the most special, and in the following time, you can imagine that there will be a lot of trouble around him."
"With such an identity and experience, it's natural to write a biography, just like your biography. It's very popular in the world of magic. I thought, since she wants to write it, I might as well invest in it. That's why you're seeing the sequel now."
Jon didn't hide his capitalist nature at all. From the beginning, he was aiming for the huge profits of the Harry Potter series. There was nothing to hide at all.
Moreover, just now, when Dumbledore said that he hoped that he would secretly protect Harry and add something to the plan, he suddenly had an excellent idea.
"Professor, I have a new idea. I don't know. Would you like to hear it?"
