Back to 80: My literary life.

Chapter 691 Harry Potter

"Ruirui, how can you say that about your father?" Song Tangtang put down the book and frowned at his daughter.

Fang Minghua was fine, and asked, "Ruirui, why doesn't Dad keep his word?"

The daughter looked confident:

"When I was in kindergarten, you said you would write me a story about a magician flying on a broomstick, but I'm about to enter third grade and you haven't written it yet. Your words don't count!"

"Sister is right, Dad wrote the novel for my aunt, not for us!"

Ah?
You little brat, you're joining your sister in the fun?
"Le Le, Rui Rui, you are still young, Dad is worried that you won't understand what he wrote." Song Tang Tang said, "Besides, Rui Rui, don't you like reading the fairy tales written by Uncle Zheng Yuanjie?"

"It's boring. Pippi Lu is not fun at all and he doesn't know magic." Ruirui muttered.

"Dad, if I can understand 100,000 Whys, I can also understand the magic book, right?" the son asked seriously.

Song Tangtang looked at her husband helplessly, meaning that he should tell her about the promise he made.

Fang Minghua smiled and said, "Okay, Dad will write it for you!"

"Great, Dad, what can you finish?"

"It will probably take several months, right? If you're going to write it, you have to write it well. But for now, you should just read the book in your hands carefully!"

In the morning, the whole family read in the yard for nearly two hours and then dispersed. The two children jumped out to play with their German Shepherd puppy. Fang Minghua squatted by the wall and fiddled with three pots of daylilies, while Song Tangtang stood by and watched.

"Minghua, are you really going to write a magic novel?"

"Yes, this year is 95. It will be too late if you don't write it now." Fang Minghua said without turning his head.

"What's too late?"

"I mean, I have to write it quickly, Tangtang, don't just stand there, help me get the flower shovel, it's under the eaves."

"Oh, okay." Song Tangtang hurried over to get it.

Fang Minghua was not talking nonsense.

When it comes to magic novels that children can read, the Harry Potter series is the best. This is a big IP, how can you miss it easily?
After finishing cleaning up the three pots of daylilies, Fang Minghua patted the mud off his hands, washed them at the faucet in the yard, and then walked towards the living room.

"Minghua, aren't you going fishing today?" Song Tangtang asked.

"No, I want to write a novel for my two kids!"

"Oh, you love your children so much?" Song Tangtang followed behind and said with a smile: "You wrote for Lili, and now you write for the two children. When will you write for me too?"

Oh, are you fighting over this thing?

"Okay, okay, I'll write it to you when I'm done. My wife always comes first!"

"What do you mean by first place? This time he's clearly third." Song Tangtang muttered.

Are you still jealous?

Fang Minghua stopped and prepared to explain, "Lili, please speak first. I have already promised the child."

But before he could open his mouth, he heard Song Tangtang say, "Okay, okay, I was just kidding. Go ahead and write. I'll take the two kids back to my mom's place later, and I won't be back for lunch or dinner." The wife took the two children back to her parents' home, leaving Fang Minghua and the nanny at home. The nanny was washing clothes in the washing machine upstairs, and Fang Minghua was alone in the study upstairs typing on the computer. Everything around was quiet, with the only sound of Fang Minghua typing on the computer.

"Harry Potter" is a series of fantasy novels written by British writer JK Rowling, with a total of 7 volumes and nearly three million words.

Rowling spent nearly a decade to build a grand magical world, which is one of the best-selling book series in literary history. Warner Bros. Entertainment of the United States adapted these seven novels into eight movies, which is the best-selling film series in the world's history, with a total box office revenue of 7 billion US dollars.

This set of books is a youth memory for those born in the 1980s. Fang Minghua was also a HP fan and had read all of them before coming to this era. He has also watched all eight movies and even read the "Harry Potter Encyclopedia".

This book comprehensively displays and vividly reproduces the magical world constructed by JK Rowling. All entries in the book are interpreted in a comprehensive, vivid and detailed manner.

In a sense, "Harry Potter" is the originator of online cool novels. It begins with the structure of the three golden chapters of online novels, highlighting the miserable family of HP and the miserable life of the protagonist. This is suppression.

Then all kinds of magic happened, and you got slapped in the face.

The novel is extremely imaginative, with a complete world structure and setting, which actually exist in some classic online novels of later generations, and some of them have even more grand worldviews.

Of course, "Harry Potter" is not just a refreshing novel. The author has very high writing skills. All her narrations are like telling a story. Her tone is like a gentle person telling a story vividly, revealing step by step a mysterious magical world in a modern context.

Let’s start with the magic system.

The magic system in "Harry Potter" is very comprehensive and complex, covering many aspects such as magic, wizards, wands, magical creatures, magic spells, etc. It draws on content from Greek mythology, Roman mythology, French literature, Druid beliefs, and ancient mysticism.

Although Fang Minghua had read the original novel and the movie, and even studied the "Harry Potter Encyclopedia", it was impossible for him to remember the difficult nouns in the novel.

But it doesn’t matter, you can make it up yourself. Besides, there are many magical terms in later Western fantasy online novels, such as "The Arcane Throne" by Squid and "The Magic Apprentice" by Lan Jing.

Fang Minghua spent the entire afternoon building the magic system.

In the evening, Song Tangtang came back from her parents' home with her two children. She came to Fang Minghua's study and saw her husband sitting in front of the computer typing on the keyboard. She curiously leaned over to take a look and was immediately shocked.

There was no novel at all, the entire screen was filled with all kinds of magic.

1. Offensive spells:

1. Explosion spell: causes the target to explode violently, with a power equivalent to more than 10 kilograms of TNT.

2. Tripping Curse: A spell that makes people fall. It is not very harmful but extremely insulting.

2. Defense Spells
1. Obstacles galore: set up obstacles to stop the enemy from advancing.

2. Patronus: Summon a patronus to resist dark forces such as Dementors.

There are also practical spells, dark magic spells, and dark magic defensive spells. The WPS document has several pages and there is no sign of stopping!

"Oh my God." Song Tangtang exclaimed: "Minghua, are you planning to create a magic world?"

"Congratulations, you got it right." Fang Minghua stared at the screen and said, "This world not only includes various kinds of magic, but also a magic school, a magic bank, a magic veterinary hospital, etc. There are also various races, including humans, beasts, fairies, house elves, giants, etc."

"Minghua, are you writing a novel for your child? How many words do you plan to write?"

"Of course it's not just for the kids." Fang Minghua turned and looked at his wife: "I'm going to write a series. It will be the longest story I've ever written, even longer than 'The Snowy Swordsman'."
