My Animation Era

The villains in Chinese comics are all charming.

Especially for those children's animations that focus on comedy, the villains are usually silly and cute, and they obviously do bad things, but they are the type that people can't hate.

For example, the Big Big Wolf and the Seven Evil Wolves in the Pleasant Goat series, the big monsters and little monsters in the Happy Baby series, or Team Rocket in the Pokémon series...

besides.

There are also some special villains. Although they also have funny elements, they are particularly heartwarming and sympathetic for various reasons.

For example, the black tiger in the classic childhood animation "The Seven Heroes of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit" is infatuated, dedicated, filial and loyal, but as the young master of the Demon Cult, he is an out-and-out slut.

Also, the villain in "Bear Bears" is bald and strong.

Logically speaking, Bald Qiang should be classified into the same category as Big Big Wolf and Big Monster, and he is a silly and funny villain.

But obviously, Bald Qiang’s special personality makes him less funny...

No matter how downcast Big Big Wolf is, he is still the Wolf King, has a luxurious wolf castle and a happy family, and is still a famous inventor.

No matter how desperate the big monster is, he is still a frustrated general who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. He also has loyal subordinates and a large amount of material assistance.

Brother Qiang is even more miserable.

A man left his hometown and lived in a deep mountain forest cutting down trees. He lived in a dilapidated cabin, ate grass and milk, and faced the threat of bears.

In this environment, the unscrupulous boss has to withhold wages from time to time, and even eating is a problem. It can only be said that all workers can understand the sadness of Brother Qiang.

The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Bald Qiang, who was lying on a rocking chair basking in the sun, dreamed that two bears were frightened and woke him up, and then he received a call from home.

"Qiangzi, Mom misses you!"

Faced with the greetings and concerns from his parents, Bald Qiang agreed to go back to celebrate the New Year, but when he returned home and checked the calendar, he discovered that today was already the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

This is how to do?

New Year's Eve is coming soon, and Bald Qiang, who has promised his parents to go home for the New Year, learns that only first-class seats are left on the train to Tuanjietun, and the fare costs 875 yuan.

After rummaging through every corner of the wooden house, Bald Qiang, who could barely scrape together 356 yuan and 80 cents, was almost worried.

Just when he was worrying about how to raise the fare for the trip home, there were numerous IOUs from Boss Li posted on the wall, which reminded him of the idea of ​​asking for wages.

But how can Boss Li’s arrears of wages be so valuable? He set a condition for Bald Qiang: cut down 20 century-old beauty pines in one day, otherwise his salary would be lost!

"The bald man will definitely not be able to beheaded..."

"Isn't this nonsense?"

Gu Miao rolled her eyes and said, "Let's not say that Xiong Da Xiong Er will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. Even if Xiong Da Xiong Er doesn't stop him, if he really meets Boss Li's conditions, how will the plot unfold next?"

Bald Qiang must go home.

This is the prerequisite for the animated special episode of "New Year's Eve". Under this prerequisite, if you want to make the animation better-looking, you have to set up obstacles for the bald Qiang and make the road home full of twists and turns.

Time is tight and not being able to afford a ticket is just an appetizer. The real obstacle is yet to come!

The chainsaw was broken, the woodcutter was out of control, and the wooden house was destroyed...

A series of accidents completely shattered Bald Qiang's dream of returning home. As he watched the train ticket fly away, he dragged his suitcase and fell into endless despair.

The kind-hearted Xiong Er heard the content of the phone call from Bald Qiang's mother to Bald Qiang and decided to help him go home. However, the other animals disagreed and felt that Bald Qiang had brought it upon himself.

Xiong Da's character design has a sharp mouth and a soft heart, so he finally joined in.

"No! It's not just Xiong Da..."

Gu Miao explained with a smile: "Actually, in this animation, most of the characters have hidden personalities with sharp mouths and soft hearts. The most typical examples are Jiji and Bald Qiang."

"That's right."

After carefully thinking about what the animals did in the script, and the bald Qiang's sigh that it was a pity to cut down the beauty pine, Huang Kun nodded in agreement.

At first glance, only Xiong Er is simple and kind-hearted. Even if Bald Qiang is a bad guy, he still has to help him get home.

But in fact, the seemingly selfish Jiji is not so hateful and hateful. He also has another side that is sharp-tongued and cruel.

"Yes, the animals are very friendly. They only verbally reprimanded Bald Qiang, but in fact they tried their best to help him get home."

Huang Kun shook his head and said: "It's just a different expression. Maybe most viewers don't like monkeys like Jiji."

What did Gigi say...

He was just playful and naughty, but something went wrong, which caused some unexpected waves when Xiong Daxiong Er sent Bald Qiang home.

After reading this special episode, some people may think that if Jiji hadn't caused trouble and Xiong Daxiong Er drove a modified car, he would have sent the bald man home long ago. How could there be all the things that happened later?

"who cares."

"The audience will hate Jiji because they are the audience, so they have the right." Gu Miao shook her head and said, "But we all know who is really causing trouble and obstacles for Bald Qiang to return home?"

"Both of us!"

Huang Kun smiled like a chicken thief: "Then according to what you say, Jiji is the one who takes the blame for us, so we still have to thank him?"

"That's for sure..."

Gu Miao also smiled and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this! The animation plot has been sorted out here, you know what to do with the rest, right?"

"Promise to complete the mission!"

Huang Kun pretended to salute, and then said with a smile: "Isn't this simple? After that, they just continued to encounter all kinds of troubles, and then Xiong Daxiong Er and Jiji Maomao used various means to solve the troubles and successfully sent Bald Qiang back. Home!"

That's right.

The plot of "Chinese New Year" is the classic "People on the Road" model that continuously cycles "encountering trouble - solving trouble - continuing to move towards the goal".

So in this regard, Gu Miao is not worried about whether Huang Kun can do a good job in the subsequent plot.

After all, he is the third-in-command of Wanbao Animation. If he can't even handle this, and he has to take action himself, then the value of Huang Kun, the third-in-command of Wanbao Animation, is really questionable.

"Mr. Gu, having said that..."

"Is this special episode really going to be broadcast next month?" Huang Kun frowned and said, "I think this plot might be more popular if it is broadcast during the Spring Festival!"

People on the Road to the Lost Bears Edition!

The plot of the animation "New Year" perfectly fits the atmosphere of reunion during the Spring Festival.

Even though there is only a few months between the National Day broadcast and the Spring Festival broadcast, the results and response after the broadcast are very likely to be the same.

Why not broadcast it during the Spring Festival?

Could it be that……

For this year’s Spring Festival, Mr. Gu has prepared more blockbuster works? Worried that "Bear Bears: Chinese New Year" will steal the spotlight?

The debt will be paid on another day. It has been raining heavily these past two days and the house in my hometown has been leaking. I have to find someone to do it.
