\"&　　 When the Internet has matured, the impact of the Internet on traditional industries is everywhere, from paper media to traditional record shops, from propaganda methods to social composition, almost the entire society has undergone earth-shaking changes. Among them, the pressure on the traditional paper publishing industry is undoubtedly at the forefront.

After entering, the sales of best-selling paper books have dropped sharply. Twenty or thirty years ago, the situation where one book's royalties can be used to provide a lifetime worry-free situation has almost disappeared, and the authors who rely on one book to become famous all over the world are even more so. Only a handful. Among them, the youth novels led by the "" series, "" series, "" series and other novels have created unparalleled industrial value. Not only did they give birth to a group of multi-millionaire writers, but at the same time, these novels were adapted into movies. The huge success has led to the popularity of countless actors and formed a huge industrial chain, which has also become a part of the entertainment industry that cannot be ignored.

This trend of youth novels originated from the "Harry Potter" series. After the first book of this youth magic novel was published in 1997, it embarked on a long journey of fifteen years that has been popular all over the world. Young people's novels have been influenced by the "Harry Potter" series, and the teenagers who have grown up have been deeply influenced.

If you want to list the sales of the "Harry Potter" series of novels, the box office of the adaptation of the film, and the influence of the actors in the series, this will be a very long list of data, but there is no doubt that "Harry- "Porter" is one of the most successful teenage novels in the United Kingdom and the world, and it has had an immeasurable impact on young people around the world, and even adults.

j. k. Rowling, formerly known as Joanna Rowling, is the author of the "Harry Potter" series of novels, a poor single mother. Joanna Rowling created the "Harry Potter" series during the lowest period of her life, and the dementor in the novel is a true portrayal of her mood at the time, but it is such a person who needs to rely on political support. "The Tramp" created this novel that has a global impact.

When Joanna Rowling published "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", the publisher considered that the target audience of this book was young boys, and I was afraid that she would not buy books by female authors, so she suggested that she use the initials as pen name. But because she did not have a middle name, she chose the "k" of her grandma "kathleen" as the second abbreviation of her pseudonym, so "j.k. Rowling" was born, the author who has been popular all over the world for 15 years. name.

Hugo really didn't expect that this gloomy woman struggling on her lifeline was actually j. k. Rowling, on the one hand, was because the name she used was too unfamiliar. It was not the "j.k. Rowling" that everyone in later generations would be familiar with, but "Joanna" that almost no one had heard of; on the other hand, it was Because Joanna looks too haggard, if Hugo remembers correctly, Joanna should have been born in 1965, which is two years older than him, but at this time she looks like Hugo’s. For the mothers, due to economic poverty and tremendous spiritual pressure, Joanna at this time was almost supported by the last trace of vitality, and naturally could not be compared with the prosperous and radiant public image of her career.

Therefore, Hugo really didn't recognize it. Even now, Hugo still can't believe it, the woman in front of him is j. k. Rowling. But guessing from the current facts, it can't be wrong.

October 1994 was the most terrifying time in Joanna Rowling's life. Joanna was shrouded in the shadow of her ex-husband’s domestic violence, and was finally driven out of the house by her ex-husband. She waited embarrassedly for her daughter to come to Edinburgh to seek refuge with her sister, where she lived a tight life relying on political relief. During this low period, she suffered from clinical depression and tried to commit suicide several times. However, her ex-husband came to Edinburgh again not long ago, which aggravated her condition. In desperation, she could only apply to the court for a protection order.

It was during this time that Joanna created the first draft of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone".

Hugo looked at Joanna Rowling, who was as old as a dead tree branch, and tried to ask, "Joanna..."

"Oh, please call Joe (). Only when others are angry will you be called Joanna." She interrupted Hugo and explained with a smile that she could feel it, and her mood was obviously calmed down now.

"Joe, I'm Hugo." He didn't refuse, and said with a chuckle, "I mean, you have a novel idea, and you have done some creation on and off, don't you? I think you should continue to stick to it. , Maybe you already have talent in this area."

Joanna chuckled, "If talent is so easy to have, there won't be so many losers in the world."

Hugo twitched his lips, "Some geniuses destroyed themselves, and some geniuses need to go through countless hardships before they can shine." Hugo's words made Joanna suddenly raise her head, her eyes flashed. Shining, looking at Hugo expectantly.

In fact, Joanna knew in her heart that Hugo was just a stranger, and he just said some great ideas to comfort her, which had no practical meaning, but she just couldn't bear to find hope from Hugo. Maybe it was because Hugo had just saved herself, maybe because the smile on Hugo's face made her feel at ease, maybe... just because she was desperate enough to need an affirmation, for anyone, even just a stranger.

Hugo saw Joanna's eyes, those eyes full of longing and anticipation, which made him feel very familiar, just like the eyes he had when he first arranged a music. Hugo couldn't help but chuckle. He opened his mouth and wanted to give her an encouragement, but after thinking about it, he said, "You have already started to create, although it is just some intermittent clips, this at least shows that you are right. There has always been enthusiasm. In many cases, enthusiasm is not necessarily successful, but it is difficult to continue without enthusiasm." After that, Hugo paused, "Do you have a draft now? If so, I I would love to be a reader..."

Hugo tentatively said that he was actually a little curious, not only wondering if Joanna Rowling was the author of "Harry Potter" in front of him, but also curious about the first draft of "Harry Potter". Hugo remembers that Joanna once mentioned in an interview after she became famous, she actually did not write or change many of the settings of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", the main reason was depression. , Let her forget many of the ideas in her mind, and some of the details are completely unrecognizable.

Therefore, many people later became interested in Joanna Rowling's original manuscript. Hugo is no exception.

Hugo originally thought that Joanna would refuse. They were just strangers, but he didn't expect that Joanna would just hesitate for a while, then bit her lower lip, as if she was determined to say, "Of course, the novel is written to give Readers see it, don’t they? It’s my honour that you are willing to take on this job."

In fact, Joanna still lacks confidence. She doesn't want her semi-finished products to be seen by others. At the same time, this is her last hope. She doesn't want to show it to strangers easily. But then Joanna convinced herself that all these manuscripts would be meaningless without Hugo, so why bother with it. What's more, she is willing to believe in Hugo.

"If I remember correctly, you mentioned just now that you majored in classical literature." After Joanna made up her mind, she breathed a sigh of relief, her expression relaxed, and she picked up a few coffee pads on the table. , And then handed it to Hugo.

Hugo saw the coffee pad, and then saw the dense black lettering on it, suddenly laughed, he took the coffee pad and read it roughly before his eyes.

The fonts on the coffee pad are small, but they are all beautiful. It can be seen that Joanna is really interested in writing. With the light in the coffee shop, Hugo looked at the coffee pad with difficulty, but he sighed that even reading is so difficult, not to mention that Joanna wants to create on it.

This is indeed "Harry Potter", because Hugo saw the most familiar Golden Triangle, Harry, Hermione and Ron, and also saw Muggles. Hugo couldn't help but raised his head and glanced at Joanna. He was pretty sure that the woman who looked down and worried was j. k. Rowling, but at this moment she looked at Hugo with an uneasy expression on her face, her dry lips trembled slightly, and the blinking of her eyes revealed the mixed emotions in her heart at the moment.

Hugo smiled at Joanna, soothed her a little, and then went on to read.

The original version of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is very different from what Hugo remembers, or it should be missing many things, such as the Wesley twins, which Hugo did not see; another example It is said that Quidditch, which is popular all over the world, has not been created yet~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Hugo only saw the scattered ideas of Quidditch on the last coffee pad.

"Wow, I must say, I like it very much." Hugo sighed sincerely after reading the six scattered coffee pads in his hand. This is not a polite, let alone a disguise, but sincere. For an enthusiastic reader who has collected a full set of novels in the "Harry Potter" series, it is difficult for Hugo to read the first draft of the author's own handwriting. Bearable. Although there are many differences between this version of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" and the final version, the overall story structure is still the same, and there are many fantastic ideas. It can be seen that Joanna is working hard to transform herself The unconstrained imagination injects vitality into the novel.

"You, are you serious?" Joanna looked at Hugo in disbelief, her eyes widened, and the excitement in her eyes flickered clearly, as if tears would burst out in the next second.

"Yes, of course." Hugo reluctantly read the coffee pad in his hand again, feeling full of emotions, "This is really a wonderful story, if it can be published, it will definitely cause a sensation. At least, I will put it down."

Joanna looked at Hugo in a daze like this, letting her eyes be filled with warm tears. supply.
