Jamie Wong

Jamie Chariss Wong Gwai Fei (Simplified Chinese: 王桂菲) is the titular character and protagonist from the Harry Potter fan fiction "Die Welt von Jamie Wong" by Potterforumista Irish Uy. The story covers the life of the 16 year old Chinese witch who lives in Hamburg, Germany with her father and her exploits from living life the muggle way until she found herself to have changed her path set into the wizarding world instead.
When the story started, Jamie was a witch who lives life like a German muggle and at the same time studies wizardry under the guidance of her dad Percy. To aid her more in her wizarding studies, her dad gave her his old timeturner so she can study wizardry and at the same time do her muggle activities. She attends the muggle Hamburg Central High School where she had Raimund Jost, a closeted gay friend of Jamie who claims he wanted to be a doctor but inside wanted to become a fashion designer. In Hamburg Central, she excels in mathematics(which is the only muggle talent she considered having), having trouble in Physics and facing her worst enemy Aslana Gecim, who also turned out to be a wizard(neither witches knew if one was a witch and vice versa). Aslana was a hot looking, frivolent and lewd witch who happens to be the daughter of a top German model and a Turkish manager of a record company who are both wizards.
Aslana used to be Jamie's best friend until Jamie got tired of her and saved Raimund from being bullied by her. Since that day, they became worst enemies. Aslana also happened to have a crush on Jamie's celebrity crush, the frontman of the band Die Argyles: Johannes Trumper. One day, Aslana exposed to everyone a muggle picture of her being with Johannes in a bar, which left Jamie into tears and outright jealousy towards Aslana. When she got home, her dad told her that they'll be going on a roadtrip to London this summer. On their way to London, Jamie showed her sudden distaste of Die Argyles and that shocked her dad. What shocked him more was that Jamie's crush had a relationship with Aslana from what Aslana proved to everyone and back then Jamie and Percy both believed that Aslana was a muggle. Percy just comforted his sobbing daughter by telling her that it's an inevitable situation that people having crushes face and he too felt as bad as her when he was a teenager. Then they passed by Brussels(where they met Tintin, Snowy, Captain Haddock, Prof. Calculus and many others-just kidding), Paris(where they saw Julien and Zhang Chongren- again, just kidding) and some other notable European towns and cities before arriving in London a few days later. In London, Jamie's heartbreak became more painful as she read a blog post by Aslana about Johannes. But her melodramatic moment did not last long when her German OWL results and *gasp* a letter from Hogwarts arrived and there Jamie made up her decision to leave behind her muggle dream of becoming a pilot and opt for a wizarding career instead.
The next morning, Jamie broke in the news with her dad as well as her decision. Her dad was happy about it so they went to Diagon Alley for school supplies. On their way to the Magical Menagerie, they bumped and met their long lost Aunt Cho Chang, who was a lonely and heartbroken witch. Aunt Cho found Jamie a cat that really reminded her of Harry Potter so she named it Harry.
One night later in London, Jamie opened her myspace again after quite some time. To her surprise, she read a blog post made by Aslana in which she told that Johannes was thankful that despite having bitchy fans(particularly a Cantonese speaking girl who had a very confusing Chinese name-pertaining to Jamie), he was thankful that he had Aslana who understands him.
Despite being so distraught and depressed with what she heard about Johannes and Aslana, her spirits soared when she realized she is about to leave behind the unkind muggle world she lived in and move on with the world she belonged in- the wizarding world.
When she was in Hogwarts, she was sorted in Gryffindor where she met and befriended Tahsin Bouvier, Rosly Kiorsly and Keith Hutchins. During the quidditch team audition, Jamie noticed a loner girl who strikingly look like Johannes. Tahsin told Jamie that her name is Audrie Trumper and she's a girl who just couldn't say no to trouble(at least she can say no to drugs!!). Then that afternoon, Keith-the Gryffindor quidditch captain- released the results and Jamie was surprised that she made it in the team along with Tahsin and Audrie.
Later that night in the Gryffindor common room, Jamie confronted Audrie out of anger for Johannes and there Jamie got to know the truth- Johannes and Aslana aren't together. In fact they're worst enemies and that they are wizards like them. After some clarifications, Jamie and Audrie became friends and Audrie joined in Jamie's group of guy pals while Jamie moved in Audrie's dormitory. Back in Hamburg, Raimund can't take the pain of long distant friendship with Jamie so he stopped talking with her, Aslana was stunning spell was backfired after attempting to make Johannes fall for her and it was revealed that Johannes is studying to be an auror, Ian is a squib and he is Johannes' best friend.
After a Gryffindor victory over Ravenclaw, the latter's team captain, Mikey Moon, provoked some trouble with Audrie which ended up in a midnight duel. Audrie picked Jamie to be her partner, who is reluctant about joining the fray. Mikey picked Juli Tamatree, a fifth year girl who is good friends with Frankie, Dylan, Amy and the other good Ravenclaws. During dinner, Audrie was bothered by her conscience so she decided to go on her own and leave Jamie out of it. But in the last minute, Jamie recalled what Audrie did for her so she joined in the fray so she can protect Audrie. In the duel, Mikey had Juli do most of the duel but in the end, Juli gave up because their fight is none of her business and the prefects' bathroom benefit will only last her for this year because Mikey is a seventh year. Then the four got detention from Prof. Moody and Prof. Hale. While Jamie and Audrie were sorting out the potions ingredients of Professor Hale, Jamie tells Audrie the story of her past with Aslana. After that, the two overheard Prof. Hale and Shana talking about an exclusive Christmas party in Hogsmeade. After that, Professor Hale saw the potions stock well organized so she invited the two to her Christmas party just as long as they keep it a secret to the whole school. They agreed.
One day, Jamie received a letter from sir Listing that Raimund doesn't want to talk to her anymore. This brought Jamie into tears, which lead Audrie into inviting her cousin and Die Argyles in Prof. Hale's Christmas party and arranging Jamie a blind date with Johannes. At the Christmas party, the two met and they fell in love with each other.
Then after some teenage melodrama in both Hamburg and Hogwarts are solved, Aslana discovered that Ian is Johannes' best friend and then she kidnapped the poor squib and used veritaserum to torture him. Then she went on to kidnap Audrie and assault Jamie in Hogsmeade. A few days after Audrie's disappearance, Jamie and friends received a letter from Aslana with a riddle saying she got Audrie, Ian, the what and the ways on how to get them back safely. With the use of Beedle the Bard's mysterious statue, they snuck out to London via Floo network but they ended up in Aunt Cho's, where Keith stunned aunt Cho after seeing them.
After following the statues of Asha, Athelda and Amata around London, they ended up in Islington- where Die Argyles are going to have a concert. Then there they met Aslana with Audrie and Ian tied up. Aslana was about to kill them all off if Johannes, Tahsin, Die Argyles and some aurors like Auror Potter and Weasley. Then they caught Aslana and freed Audrie and Ian. Before the concert started, Jamie and Johannes snogged in his dressing room.
The next day, Audrie arrived in Hogwarts which shocked Hogwarts- although it was said in the Daily Prophet and the Quibbler that Audrie is free and Ian is found.
Then in Platform 9 and three quarters, Jamie met her dad, aunt Cho and Raimund, with Raimund saying sorry to her. Then there she also met Audrie's family and then Johannes.
The epilogue shows Jamie with Johannes and her dad in the Wongs' home in Kowloon. The ending shows Jamie and Johannes being happy together. All was well.



What can i say about Jamie??
Jamie is more like a bff to me that i always take good care of. I treat her more than Raimund, Audrie, Johannes would combined. I groom her, feed her, protect her and be with her when she is down like she was my long time best friend. She is always there to understand my problems and my thoughts. When TH fan girls tell me that Bill would never hook up with nerdy, East Asian girls and opt for dark-skinned fashionistas instead, Jamie is there to comfort and tell me that those girls have no rights to tell me that since no one knows how Bill's mind go but Bill himself. When i feel so sad about my family, she's always the one who would tell me that she too also lost a mom and things will eventually get well in the end. Now i let her go with Johannes, Harry the cat, her dad, Aunty Cho and all her other relatives and friends happily by her side, i face the future with unknown dangers lurking around. I hope that Jamie will still inspire me to stay as i am even if the worse will come.
