簡介:
Willy Wonka has the largest chocolate factory in the world. For years, no one has seen any workers coming in or out of the factory, but the strong smell of the chocolate has kept coming out of it.
Willy Wonka intends to hold a big event—he hides five Golden Tickets in the wrappers of the chocolate bars sold to the world, and only five lucky people with the tickets will have the chance to enter his mysterious factory.
Charlie, the protagonist of the story, lives with his parents and four grandparents in a small house near the factory, and the whole family only lives on his father's little income. Charlie is lucky enough to get one of the five Golden Tickets. At first, he plans to sell it to relieve his family's financial hardship, but after a talk with Grandpa Joe, Charlie finally chooses to visit the factory. The other four lucky kids are Augustus, Veruca, Violet and Mike.
Each of the kids starts their adventure with one or two of their family members at last. The factory is full of temptations, and they are attracted by different temptations except Charlie. He finally finishes the tour.
During the tour, Mr. Wonka talks about his childhood experiences. His father never lets him eat any candy or chocolate, and reminds him that sweets can damage his teeth. Eventually, Willy Wonka chooses to leave his family and sets up this chocolate factory. At the end of the tour, Mr. Wonka reveals his true purpose...
