Chapter 692 Hermione is the spokesperson of the magical world for Chinese students
After hearing this, Song Tangtang looked at her husband in surprise.
She originally thought that Fang Minghua would only write a novel of tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of words, similar to "The Wizard of Oz", but it seemed that was not the case at all!
She suddenly thought of a question: "Minghua, after you finish writing this novel, can Shengshi Film and Television make it into a movie?"
Chinese make "Harry Potter"?
Wow. This idea is a bit big.
But you can’t discourage your wife’s enthusiasm!
"Well, you can read it after I finish writing the first one." Fang Minghua said.
"Okay, you are busy, take care of yourself and rest early, I will change tea for you." Song Tangtang knew that her husband could not write anything without tea.
After Song Tangtang left, Fang Minghua's thoughts suddenly opened up.
It’s hard to say whether a Chinese director can successfully film this purely Western fantasy novel, but...
Why aren’t there more Chinese elements in it?
In fact, there are already some Chinese elements in the original work: the Chinese fireball dragon, the Chinese red lantern in "Harry Potter 6", the shadow puppets in "Harry Potter 7", but more importantly, haha Li Porter's first love girlfriend Qiu Zhang.
Although the novel does not explicitly say that Qiu Zhang is of Chinese descent, judging from her name, she is probably a Chinese girl. Although Qiu Zhang did not succeed in holding hands with Harry in the end, as a Ravenclaw As a school beauty, she also dated all the popular seniors in the school. Qiu Zhang was undoubtedly a goddess-level beauty.
However, Cho Chang only appeared in the third film "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", so her role was a bit small.
Increase the drama?
It would be better to make Hermione Granger, one of the golden trio in the novel, directly a Chinese girl.
In fact, as far as the original work is concerned, Hermione is the spokesperson of the magical world for Chinese students!
Hermione is smart and hard-working, and is the representative of academic excellence in our hearts.
However, what she fears most is failing the exam. This fear does not stem from her laziness or lack of effort, but from her extreme emphasis on performance.
Hermione was not sorted into Ravenclaw, probably because what she pursued was not wisdom, but excellent exam results. She believes that only by passing the exam can she prove her worth.
Hermione’s fears and pursuits are so similar to those of students in our country.
Compared with Harry and Ron's relaxed and casual attitude towards studying and exams, Hermione's anxiety due to study pressure makes us Chinese feel more friendly and sympathetic.
Nima’s Hermione character was copied from a Chinese top student. It would be very easy to change her to Chinese.
I have thought of a name.
It’s called Rui Fang, hey, write down your baby daughter’s name.
When my daughter-in-law Song Tangtang saw this name, she giggled, and her daughter was even more excited when she found out.
"Wow, I know magic, I can fly on a broomstick!"
But the younger brother Lele next to him poured cold water on him: "Dad said, magic is all It’s fake! We have to believe in science!” He then took out a new magazine, “Junior Science Illustrated”, as if to show off!
Of course Ruirui was not convinced by her younger brother's "making trouble" and pointed at him: "Okay, if you have the ability, don't read it when dad writes it!"
"I want to look at it critically!"
Edi Shenna
The couple was amused by their son's last words.
Whose tone are you imitating?
The siblings often quarrel, but Fang Minghua doesn't care, as long as they don't fight.
Although Fang Minghua has read the original book and the movie, the structure of this book is relatively large. It took him three days to sort out the world view, magic system, main character settings and relationships in the novel, and also drew a character relationship diagram.
Adjusted some character settings, such as Hermione, a blond girl, changed to a black-haired oriental beauty of Chinese descent.
The Chinese girl Qiu Zhang needs to be changed to a Western girl, otherwise it will be a bit too abrupt.
May Day is coming soon, and from today onwards, weekends will be implemented across the country.
Not long ago, the State Council issued a notice stipulating that starting from May 1st of that year, the weekly working hours will be changed to 40 hours. Two days off on the weekend plus three days off on Labor Day, which became his first "small long vacation."
For Fang Minghua, the whole family went to his parents' house on the first day, and on the second day he took his two children with Song Tangtang to his father-in-law's house to stay for a whole day. Only on this third day did he really belong to himself.
Song Tangtang drove his two children to Wang Xia’s house early in the morning. Zhao Hongjun was not in Xijing but in Shanghai. The two women were going to take their children to the Great World Amusement Park on Seoul Road in the western suburbs. When traveling, leave Fang Minghua at home.
On this day, he did not go fishing either. He first went to the calligraphy and painting exhibition hall on the third floor to appreciate calligraphy and paintings alone, and then returned to the study to copy calligraphy.
Suddenly, Xiaoqin, the nanny who was doing housework, hurried up and knocked on Fang Minghua's study: "Brother Fang, a man and a woman came to the door. The woman said she was your student and came to visit you."< br>
"Oh, what's your name?"
"She said her name is Li Hongying."
Li Hongying?
Didn’t you go to England to study?
Returned to China?
Fang Minghua put down his brush and went downstairs with the nanny.
“What about the man?” Fang Minghua asked casually as he walked.
"She didn't introduce me. I feel like her husband and her father." Xiaoqin said.
Fang Minghao felt funny. "Are you a husband or a father? There's a big difference."
"I feel the same way. You'll know when you go and take a look."
Fang Minghua went downstairs to the door of the courtyard and saw Li Hongying standing at the door. Next to him was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie. He looked like a scholar and seemed to be over forty. Both of them were holding gifts in their hands.
"Teacher Fang!" Li Hongying called out respectfully.
"Hongying, have you returned to China?" Fang Minghua said with a smile.
"Well, I'm here to visit relatives." Li Hongying replied, and pointed to the middle-aged man next to her: "This is my husband, Zhao Yiheng, a professor at the School of Oriental Studies, University of London, UK."
Sure enough, he is the husband and not the father!
"Hello, Chairman Fang, I am abroad and have heard of your name a long time ago." Zhao Yiheng stretched out his right hand.
"You're welcome, Professor Zhao, Hongying, please come inside."
Fang Minghua led the two of them into the living room. The nanny poured tea, and the three of them sat on the sofa and started chatting.
Li Hongying told Fang Minghua that Zhao Yiheng was her teacher at the University of London. They got married at the beginning of this year and are now on wedding leave to return to China to visit relatives.
After first going to Zhao Yiheng’s hometown of Guilin to meet his parents, he then went to Chongqing to visit Li Hongying’s parents. Originally, Zhao Yiheng wanted to go to Yanjing to visit his teacher, the famous poet Bian Zhilin, but Li Hongying proposed to take a detour to Xijing. Go visit Fang Minghua.
"He is also my teacher. Although he only taught me in Luyuan for a few months, he benefited me a lot!"
Hearing what his newlywed wife said, Zhao Yiheng agreed.
“My husband studied at the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in the early 1980s, and his teacher was Mr. Bian Zhilin. He studied Shakespeare literature with Mr. Bian, received a master’s degree in literary theory, and then went to the University of California, Berkeley, to study for a PhD. I My husband respects Mr. Bian very much and visits him whenever he returns to China."
Li Hongying said, looking at her husband with a look of admiration.
"Professor Zhao is Mr. Bian's student? Sure enough, a famous teacher makes a great disciple." Fang Minghua complimented with a smile.
Bian Zhilin is not only a famous poet in my country, but also a senior researcher of Shakespeare literature and serves as the vice president of the China Shakespeare Research Association.
The three of them chatted for a while, and Li Hongying asked: "Teacher Fang, what novel are you writing recently? I came back and saw that your book "In the Name of the People", which exposed the real officialdom, was selling very well. Are you writing a realistic work? ”
