Chapter 1743: Richest Clan 1
In December, no one would ever think that something big would happen, such as how the Rokkaku clan suddenly became rich.
The Rokkaku clan, one of the 18 Assistant Houses, became so rich that it made the entire Magician community dumbfounded. This clan also started to buy various media industries, entering the entertainment business, when their family was previously in the geothermal power plant drilling industry along with the other three clans that bore the number six in their name, which made everyone became even more dumbfounded, after all, no one would ever think that a mining family would enter both financial and entertainment business.
Rokkaku, Mutsuzuka, Rokugou, and Roppongi were four clans involved in the 6th Research Institute. The relationship between the four of them was good. They were always in balance, working together, maintaining their power together. Still, suddenly Rokkaku was successful in the financial market, then suddenly entered an entertainment business, so the three clan heads of Mutsuzuka, Rokugou, and Roppongi made an appointment and came to the Rokkaku clan directly wondering what had happened.
The head of the Rokkaku clan was obviously feeling very happy with the prosperity of his clan, and he knew that everything was because of Haru. Still, he wouldn't say anything about it and only said that they were lucky in the finance market and got a lot of money, so they thought to enter the entertainment industry. After all, they only needed a lot of creativity to work on it. It could also be a form of investment too.
"If you have leeway, why don't we invest in our movie?" The head of the Rokkaku clan suddenly said.
"Movie?!" 3x
The three heads of Mutsuzuka, Rokugou, and Roppongi were dumbfounded since they didn't know when the Rokkaku clan became interested in the movie, after all, most of the Magicians would either enter the military or engineering related profession, which was why when they heard that the head of the Rokkaku clan proposed to invest in a movie, they weren't sure what to say, after all, rather than working on the movie wasn't it better to do more research on magic?
Such a thought wasn't uncommon. After all, in most people, the Magician was seen as a weapon, so it was better to do something that made them stronger, right?
But...
"What kind of movie?" Curious, the head of Rokugou asked.
"Superhero movie," the head of the Rokkaku clan said without hesitation.
"Superhero movie?!" 3x
The three of them became more dumbfounded.
The head of the Rokkaku clan nodded and said, "I'm not going to hide it from you, but our intention to enter the entertainment industry is to make the image of magician better. You should know that there's a lot of people who are going "anti-magic" etc., etc., so we have thought, why don't we just enter the entertainment industry, and make the image of the magician better. Not only can we get more money, but our image also becomes better."
"..........." The three of them looked at the head of the Rokkaku clan and wondered whether this guy had always been so smart.
"So you're planning to make a magician become a hero in this movie?" The head of the Mutsuzuka clan, Mutsuzuka Atsuko, asked. Among the four clan heads, she was the only woman, but no one underestimated her. After all, at this moment, her clan was a member of Ten Master Clans.
"That's right." The head of the Rokkaku clan nodded and said, "I have thought about making the heroes based on every powerful magician in this country. We'll develop various backstory, moving plots full of tears, laughter, persistence, loyalty, friendship, and love! Then we can use the other countries' magicians, anti-magic organizations, or various enemies into a villain in our movie! We'll make a successful franchise! No, I mean successful propaganda about that the magician is good!" He was so excited that he stood up while raising his hand high.
"......." The three clans looked at the head of the Rokkaku clan with a dumbfounded expression, but they had to admit that his words moved them.
"With great power, there must also come great responsibility." The head of the Rokkaku clan looked at the three of his friends and said, "Shall we?"
The three of them looked at each other then nodded without hesitation.
Then the four of the clans talked to each other about a lot of things about the movie, background plot and felt that it was better to use one of their clans as their first movie. Still, the clan head of the Rokkaku clan quickly stopped them. After all, it was better to leave those things to a professional.
The three of them nodded and told the head of the Rokkaku clan that he had their full support, and after they felt satisfied with their talk, all of them returned. As for why the head of the Rokkaku clan could think about making a movie so suddenly, they didn't care much. After all, inspiration often comes so suddenly. Their heads had always been preoccupied with research and war, which was why they had never thought of a huge market that was known as entertainment.
But...
The three of them wondered who was really the head behind the Rokkaku clan, and somehow they felt jealous since no one expected a financial genius would appear in the Rokkaku clan. Why not their clan?
When the three of them left, the head of the Rokkaku clan and all the important members of this clan gathered together while staring at the young man that had brought them a treasure. In their mind, they didn't expect that the orphan of their family members would give this much surprise to their family.
Haru was wearing a kimono, sitting next to the clan head of the Rokkaku clan, and said, "What I say next, I hope that you won't disclose it to anyone, so before I talk, we need to sign up for this disclosed contract before I talk since what I'm going to say will probably become the main business of our clan."
Everyone nodded and quickly signed the agreement. After all, everything was for the clan.
After everything was done, they quickly looked at Haru, wondering about their next venture business.
"Well, our next venture is pretty simple, and that is Virtual Reality," Haru said.
"Virtual Reality?!"
Looking at their expression, Haru knew that they showed their doubt, but it was normal. After all, besides a Magician, no one really used this device, and there was a lot of war that happened, which was why no one realized the full capacity of Virtual Reality, but once they realized it, it would make them rain in money.
