I saw concept of wildcard,the document gives an example that: query two phrase "W1F 7HW" and "W2F 8HW" can use this { "wildcard": { "postcode": "W?F\*HW" }}.  
i have a field names "company" it is not analyzed, values "HAPPY LOGISTICS",  
when i use wildcardQuery(company, "\*"+"PPY LOGIS"+"\*"); it can not find the doc, Why is this?
