After a brief conversation with Larys, they confirmed the upcoming interview arrangements:
such as group photos and interviews with Lizer and Patiff, an introduction to the factory, and so on.
Of course, these were secondary. Larys's main focus now was the introduction of the "Flying Fire Meteor".
At Felina's suggestion, the little electric scooter and even the witchcraft motorcycles were named under the "Smooth Ride" brand. Naturally, they couldn't actually be called "Lizer" for people to ride.
However, she suggested that he name each product individually, just like the Little Witch Scooter and the three-wheeler. Lizer named the fiery red model "Flying Fire Meteor".
Larys originally wanted Lizer to drive the motorcycle and give her another ride to experience it again.
She had been so caught up in the thrill earlier that she forgot to turn on her recording prop.
Her excuse was that she wanted to capture a witchcraft recording from the rider's perspective, so the newspaper could provide readers with a more immersive experience.
Newspapers in this world were divided into two types: the mass edition and the witchcraft edition.
The mass edition used ordinary paper and could only print color pictures.
The witchcraft edition's paper, however, contained trace amounts of materials used for making witchcraft scrolls, allowing it to display a witchcraft recording for about 30 seconds.
This was the magical wizarding world.
Larys's request was directly approved by Felina, but it was changed to her giving Lyris a ride.
Having one Gloria around was already giving her a headache; this Lyris better stay as far away as possible.
After a brief chat, they quickly finalized the interview schedule. The awkward part was that all the interview equipment was with Olive.
And so, the group waited for nearly another 20 minutes...
A profusely sweating Olive finally pedaled his bicycle into the line of sight of the already impatient group...
Olive and Lyris both looked at each other with complaints.
Olive wailed breathlessly,
"Oh! My God! Boss!
I finally caught up with you!
I'm never riding a bicycle again! Huff... huff..."
Olive's exaggerated wailing made them smile, and the atmosphere eased up a bit...
Entering the interview phase, Larys seemed like a completely different person, professional and capable.
She had a hint of aloofness, which, paired with her metal-framed glasses, made her look both alluring and intellectual. Under her direction, Lizer and Felina became like marionettes, purely cooperating.
He also gained a deeper understanding of the nature of a reporter's work:
Through specific camera angles and the piecing together of factual fragments, they could deeply implant their own ideas into the readers.
This was a profession capable of manipulating people's hearts, and Lizer secretly remained vigilant about it.
This seemed similar to Lizer's tricks against lie-detection witchcraft.
A combination of words that are entirely not lies might not necessarily be the truth; this is the media.
It had to be said that Larys was professional, and she was true to her word.
About three days later, Larys sent over the two editions of the commercial newspaper for this issue, both hitting the front page:
"A Genius Idea, A Cross-Century Invention—Flying Fire Meteor."
The regular edition newspaper had a photo:
Felina and Lyris riding the motorcycle, with a background of rapidly shifting, blurred, and twisted lines.
The design of the Flying Fire Meteor was very clear, fierce yet full of mechanical beauty, while the blurred lines displayed unparalleled speed.
It was obvious that this was an edited recording photo; these newspaper agencies had already mastered the technology of processing recordings.
This was something worth noting!
Because recordings were often used as important evidence for wizards' deductions and analyses.
If witchcraft recordings could be edited, then much evidence would no longer be reliable. He wondered if there was any technology to distinguish whether a witchcraft recording had been tampered with.
This should fall under the domain of illusionist wizards.
The witchcraft edition, on the other hand, retained a 30-second edited clip of the witchcraft recording.
It perfectly showcased the speed, convenience, and charm of the Flying Fire Meteor, practically serving as a Hollywood-level promotional blockbuster.
Lizer could not help but secretly give Larys a thumbs-up; he hadn't realized that vixen was actually quite capable.
Such directing skills were way better than Gangzi and the like back on Blue Star; if she were on Blue Star, she'd be worth a billion!
It made Lizer's blood boil with excitement.
He almost wanted to sell a kidney right then and there to get himself a beloved Flying Fire Meteor.
He could also give rides to two beautiful girls like Gloria and Felina, hugging them front and back.
It was foreseeable that the Flying Fire Meteor's popularity was inevitable, and the good-looking trio of Lizer, Felina, and Gloria also became minor celebrities for a bit.
Gloria had already sought him out yesterday. Lizer's Little Witch Scooter and witchcraft motorcycle had already spread by word of mouth, and Gloria had done a survey:
About 75% of the patrol officers were eager to buy a Little Witch Scooter!
Originally, Lizer planned to release them step by step, starting from Grey Fog Mountain, but the commercial newspaper's headline would definitely bring a lot of attention and traffic, which couldn't be wasted.
He eventually discussed it with Felina and decided to allocate 600 of the first batch of 1,000 units to be sold in Gele City.
Riding on the momentum of the headline, this matter needed to be handled sooner rather than later.
Although the production workers were not yet very skilled at operating various machine tools and assembling, resulting in low efficiency at the moment.
This batch of goods would still need another week before coming off the production line, passing tests, and entering the market.
But with the police department's purchasing intent and the commercial newspaper's headline backing them up, Lizer decided not to wait.
He decided to learn from a certain company and officially launch pre-orders two days later:
A 20% deposit, strictly non-refundable!
When the samples of the "Smooth Ride" Little Witch Scooters and three-wheelers appeared in a newly opened shop in the center of Gele City.
The novel design of these unfamiliar products attracted a large number of curious citizens to come and take a look.
The performance parameters on the product description and the drastically lower price compared to Witch Boxes made the citizens with purchasing power eager to try them.
However, this unheard-of "Lizer Machinery Manufacturing Plant" running some nonsense about limited quantities and priority pre-orders left them utterly confused.
Prepaying a 20% deposit also made them worry about being scammed.
Nevertheless, the readership of the Gele Commercial Newspaper was quite broad, and the purchasing power and foresight of the readers who subscribed to it were beyond those of ordinary people.
Some had also vaguely heard the story of a commercial battle at the Invention Intellectual Property Review Court.
In this still-unknown "National Smooth Ride Franchise Store 000001" in Gele City, a magical scene unfolded:
A large number of customers came with curiosity but left with disappointment and worry.
On the other hand, some middle-class elites dressed in suits hurried in, signed the pre-order contracts without saying a word, and hurried out...
As a result, news came back from Gele City at noon:
All 600 Little Witch Scooters were completely sold out!
Meanwhile, more and more curious citizens and customers with a desire to buy who had caught wind of the news were already breaking down the doors.
The flagship franchise store frantically called the boss, requesting to add production lines and expedite manufacturing.
In contrast, out of the 400 units in Grey Fog Mountain Town, combined with the police department's order of 290 units, only 320 units were sold in pre-sales.
As a municipality, Gele City's purchasing power was simply incomparable to that of a small town.
Lizer made a prompt decision to allocate the remaining 80 pre-sale units to Gele City, sparking a buying frenzy.
After sharing a tender moment in the factory apartment, Lizer and Felina snuggled up together.
Felina dispelled her "Lesser Shapeshift," reverting from Felin back to her true self. Beaming with joy, she began counting on her fingers to calculate her profits...
