The power of courage and love

One autumn at the end of the last century, as if it was yesterday, there was a row of foreign novels in the bookstore on the basement level of Wangfujing Xindong’an Market. I took my grandma’s hand, and the salesman said to buy this. Now children all read this. . It was a book called "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". It couldn't be said to be too thick. The cover was written with crooked gilded words, the inner page was light green, and there was a boy on the cover. To tell the truth, it was good. Ugly, he was riding on a broomstick, playing Quidditch, a game I only knew about in the future. I didn't know at the time that the four words Harry Potter would accompany me for more than ten years, and would accompany me far.

At that time, there was no internet, no mobile phone, and there were not so many channels for obtaining information now. In such a relatively closed world, Harry accompanied him and grew up with me. Compared with the new readers now, we old fans are indeed much happier. We have witnessed the growth of this series, seen the publication and release of every book and every movie, and synchronized with Harry Potter in person. growing up. At that time, Harry and I were the same years old. He spent 10 years at Dursley’s home that was dull and even bullied, and then suddenly there was a turning point in his life. Hagrid took his umbrella with his wand hidden, conjured Dudley's pigtail, and told Harry that he was going to a wizarding school called Hogwarts... At that age full of fantasy, I also wish I could have With a magic wand, everything can be resolved with just a flick of it. I also hope that there is such a diagonal alley, and there is only my owl waiting for me. I also hope that there will be a platform 9 and 3/4 with Bibi Duo beans and chocolate frogs that send wizard pictures. I also hope that there is a Hogwarts, where the magic is innumerable.

Just like this, after many years of expectation, the owl did not come, but he really grew up. When Harry finally enters the magical golden hall, I will also enter junior high school. When Harry started to feel ignorant about Qiu Zhang, I also seemed to start to appreciate the taste of liking someone. When Harry was shaken and contradictory to family, friendship, and love, I also seemed to have a little rebellion. When Harry became suspicious of the boundaries of justice and evil, I also formed my own outlook on life that would not be the same. We have grown up, Harry and his friends have also grown up, they also have schools, vacations, academic troubles, friends, enemies, they have more than us, maybe just the wand and Those thrilling stories. If we compare our days with them, in fact, what is really the same is our same time, and those who are tirelessly eager to grow up and fear to grow up in their hearts.

What is really impressive is that the series of films have been filmed faithfully to the original for ten years. They are really growing up with us. We are all children from the three little things ten years ago. When they grow up ten years later, we are no longer what we used to be. In them, we see not only the plot in the book, but also ourselves and us. I still remember that after the first movie was released, it was the fifth grade winter vacation. I curled up in the warm room on a sunny winter afternoon. I bought a VCD and watched it again and again. It was an afternoon. Yes, it was still a VCD at that time, and I needed to change the disc in the middle. I always felt that it was troublesome to change the disc. But now I think about the rough picture quality of the VCD or the trouble of changing the disc in the middle of it. These are the best memories.

When the last movie that the fans were looking forward to was released, it was the summer vacation between the junior and senior years, which was the end of the Harry Potter series ten years later. Ten years of time, there are all kinds of joys and sorrows sandwiched in it. I still remember that in the movie theater that day, when Professor Snape held Lily's desperate cry of despair, who had fallen under the Avadaso Curse, I couldn't control myself anymore, tears bursting out. When the actor's subtitles appeared after the main feature of the movie, the cinema was still quiet. Many people, like me, still sat in their seats and did not leave. At the end of the movie, the Harry and Ron family gave themselves away after their marriage. My children went to Hogwarts, and they looked at the train going away expectantly. In fact, at that time, I knew that it was over, it was over, and I had to admit it at that time, with red eyes.

Rowling has worked hard to construct a magical world, so many spells, magic lessons, magic items, magical plants and animals, magical entertainment... She has constructed a completely parallel world, all objective things are born out of her imagination, but subjective His emotions come from real life. Yes, for the characters in that non-existent world, taking their wands and taking off their wizard robes, they are just ordinary people. In reality, there is no Mirror of Eris to let us see our inner desires, and no crystal ball to let us see the future. No elf can be permanently loyal to people, and no phoenix's tears can make wounds heal as before...In reality, there are only one's own efforts, and the love and help of others. And sometimes, we can really be moved by friendship, faith and justice.

A dream in ten years, and now this dream has finally come to an end. The children I used to be have grown up, and I no longer imagine that waving my magic wand will make everything go as I want. No, maybe there is a spell in this world-flashback spell. It’s just not triggered by a spell, but a sentence, a song, a photo, a person, a scene... When you see something familiar, hear a familiar melody, a lot of the past is like The appearance of flashbacks when playing movies. Whenever I see the two letters of HP, everything about it clearly appears in my mind. Fortunately, "Harry Potter" has witnessed the ten years of my lush years. I really don't want to say goodbye to such feelings.

The entire Harry Potter series has ended. Looking back at the entire series, you can feel a sincere touch from the bottom of my heart. It can draw you, infect you, affect you, and move you. Over time, you may not remember the plots you have seen, but you must be very concerned about what you feel. Harry Potter is here, Dumbledore is here. Even if they are no longer there, the movies are still here, and the books are still here. Yes, the picture is here, the memory is here, and you are here. My youth is here. And I, I will always have a Harry Potter in my heart, in that world, there will always be fairy tales, and the complex will never fade away. One day in the future, I will also receive an offer from Hogwarts. Then he took his luggage and rushed to platform nine and three-quarters without hesitation.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone quotes

  • Ron: [Harry and Ron arrive late to Transfiguration, relieved that Professor McGonagall isn't there yet] Whew, made it. Can you imagine the look on old McGonagall's face if we were late?

    [the cat sitting at the head of the class suddenly transforms into her]

    Ron: That was bloody brilliant!

    Professor McGonagall: Well, thank you for that assessment, Mr Weasley. Perhaps it would be more useful if I were to transfigure Mr Potter and yourself into a pocket watch? That way, one of you might be on time.

    Harry: We got lost.

    Professor McGonagall: Then perhaps a map? I trust you don't need one to find your seats.

  • Ron: What do they think they're doing, keeping a thing like that locked up in a school?

    Hermione: You don't use your eyes, do you? Didn't you see what it was standing on?

    Ron: I wasn't looking at its feet! I was a bit preoccupied with its heads... or maybe you didn't notice? There were three!
