Chapter 1055 The Legend of Merlin by the Master

The second project allowed the entire hostage "rescue" process to be seen by the whole world through live broadcast.

It’s a bit of an exaggeration to say that it’s not good to watch. It’s thrilling, but it’s definitely not as exciting as the wizards imagined.

However, the enthusiasm for the Triwizard Tournament soon faded as a large number of wizarding TV series emerged at once.

Although most of them are shoddy, you can still find one or two well-made ones if you dig carefully.

For example, the masters invested in the filming of "Merlin" regardless of cost. The wealthy Nobili brand held a premiere directly in Diagon Alley, and even sponsored a set of top-level equipment to Hogwarts for simultaneous live broadcast.

The guests present were all well-known figures in the wizarding world, and even Fudge brought a number of people to show his support.

The twins booed from around the Gryffindor table.

It’s such a grand event, it would be funny if it fails.

Vincent, who was eating dinner and watching the premiere, hoped that the show would become popular all over the world, so that there would be more well-made dramas in the future.

After all the guests arrived, the 300-inch projection screen suddenly dimmed.

The screen lit up again, and the title of the drama "Merlin" appeared in gold.

The film begins with a magnificent medieval manor, and the details show that it was shot on location.

The students were obviously shocked. Only pure-blood gentlemen could create such a lavish scene.

The next scene passed by priceless magic props, instantly raising everyone's expectations to the maximum.

The investment of nearly 20 gold Galleons was indeed not exaggerated. Just this pile of priceless physical objects was something that an ordinary wizard would only see a few times in his lifetime.

The camera suddenly switched quickly, revealing a thin figure in a study room full of precious magic books.

Not only Vincent felt it looked familiar, many students subconsciously looked towards the Slytherin table.

The thin figure was flipping through a thick magic book. As the camera moved, everyone could finally see clearly who he was.

He has black hair, high cheekbones, narrow, slightly slanted brown eyes, and a look of confidence that is even a little conceited.

Blaise at the Slytherin table held his chin high, enjoying the looks from the students.

It is normal for the protagonist to appear at the beginning, and what follows depends on his acting skills.

"Merlin—Merlin—where are you?"

Blaise on the projection screen closed the magic book and walked out of the study with it, "Grandpa, I'm here!"

The expressions on the students' faces were particularly stiff, especially those of the twins at the Gryffindor table.

That's old man Merlin. Brace's acting skills are too exaggerated. How can he be qualified to play this mythical figure who represents magic?

And what kind of bullshit is this? There is still no evidence to prove Merlin's true bloodline, so why is he set as a pure-blood wizard right from the start?

The joke is not nonsense, and the adaptation is not random.

The actor who plays Merlin’s grandfather is also an old acquaintance, Chairman Khafra of the International Alchemists Association.

Through the conversation between the grandfather and grandson in the corridor full of exquisite oil paintings, the Ambrosius Family is set as an ancient pure-blood wizard family. Due to the continuous wars among Muggles over the years, there are only two family members left.

Merlin, who has depended on his grandfather since childhood, is extremely obsessed with magic. He is also very talented and has learned a lot of profound magic at the age of 15.

Fortunately, the story takes place in the 5th century in the early Middle Ages, and the protagonist Merlin is not a so-called Slytherin student.

Compared to the students' discussion on whether the setting of the series is true to history, Vincent is more concerned about when the masters became involved with the International Alchemist Guild, and whether the mole in the Ministry of Magic who was replaced by the Death Eaters is related to them.

Chairman Khafra doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do something shady behind the scenes. He doesn't have any interests at stake and won't deliberately damage Wayne Enterprises' equipment.

The more I think about it, the more headache I get. Let the Order of the Phoenix worry about it.

Vincent watched the first episode of Merlin with admiration.

Objectively speaking, apart from the malicious changes that smuggle personal opinions and the extremely exaggerated acting of the protagonist Bryce, the overall level of the series is not excellent, but it is far above the passing score and is worth watching.

Audience reviews were mixed, with some liking it extremely and others hating it extremely. If it weren't for the success of "The Gryffindor Chronicles," I think "Merlin" would have become a huge hit.

After the first episode, Blaise's popularity on campus quickly caught up with Krum's, even though he was a bit conceited and arrogant.

The 20 gold Galleons were not spent in vain. While some people are happy, others are worried.

Almost every actor in "Merlin" is a well-known wizard in the magical world. When Babajide Akinbade, the vice-president of the International Confederation of Wizards, made a guest appearance in the fourth episode, Sirius, Shafik and others finally couldn't sit still.

"Me?" Vincent looked at Sirius on the projection screen with a shocked face. "No, I'm still a student. How could I possibly go to film? And the role I play is a pure-blood wizard who despises Muggles? This will definitely cause great controversy."

"The Zabini children are also students." Sirius raised a thick script confidently, "Believe me, no one is more suitable for this role than you, and you don't care too much about what others think of you."

Vincent twitched his lips. "Aren't you still trying to find clues in Uncle Arthur's memory? How do you still have time to mess around with those pure-blood gentlemen?"

"One thing at a time." Sirius walked out of the room and pointed the camera at Lupin who was filming with a camera. "We have our work to do. If it weren't for your little device being so useful, we wouldn't have time to start a new show."

Not only can you drag the progress bar at will, but you can also speed up and slow down the video by multiple times. It is really convenient to operate in practice.

Vincent didn't know what to say.

The people they invited are presidents and vice presidents of international associations. How can I compare with them in terms of qualifications and fame?

"Um, have you considered Professor Dumbledore?"

Sirius nodded very casually, "I invited him, and he agreed."

As the president of the International Confederation of Wizards and the apprentice of the legendary alchemist Nicolas Flamel, he is definitely aiming to ride on the head of his master.

Vincent thought about it carefully, nodded and shook his head, "I'll take the role, but let me make it clear that I won't be filming a whole series. At most I can make a cameo appearance when I have time."

Sirius put down the thick script in his hand with a little regret, "Okay, I'll go find the screenwriter to revise it later."

Suddenly, he stared at Vincent blankly, and his eyes became brighter.

"Since it's a guest appearance...Hermione seems to be quite suitable..."

"Hmm?" Vincent was full of questions, "Suitable for what?"

Sirius smiled, "Rowena Ravenclaw."

"Oh." Vincent was only slightly surprised.

The Sorting Hat did consider putting Hermione in Ravenclaw, and she does have the Ravenclaw trait of a thirst for knowledge.

There would certainly be no problem for her to guest-star as the young Rowena Ravenclaw, after all, the role Sirius gave to Vincent was Salazar Slytherin.

If Helga Hufflepuff is included, the four founders of Hogwarts are complete.
