All along, the development of the country has always been able to affect the hearts of anime fans. If we pay attention to foreign works, we will find that many works will reflect enough traditional cultural values in the plot and setting, and conquer fans outside the cultural circle in a relaxed and interesting way. As a country with thousands of years of history, we should naturally be able to make many national cultures with traditional culture. Let’s talk about it in today’s topic

[Candidate 1: The national man who embody myths and legends].

This may be a very familiar type in many countries. Since the beginning of Pangu, we have heard of many myths and legends since childhood, so many Guofans often draw on these elements to create interesting plots. The country with a mythical background, naturally, from the momentum, creativity or level of excitement, naturally will not lose to foreign counterparts

For example, we have all known the work of “Ghost Story”, which is adapted from ancient legends. The movie version of that year has also touched countless audiences. In this era, someone has redefined “Ghost Story” and launched the “Manqian Food Project”. In the works, we can see Xiaoqian from the original legendary moving beauty into a character cute and lovely super cute little Loli. In this work, a lot of content, such as vomiting and welfare, which the people like to see and hear, is added, so that there are many things to watch

At the same time, works of myths and legends are often easier to go to the big screen. Everyone should still remember the smash hit “The Return of the Great Stories”. This work is based on the “Journey to the West” that every Chinese person is familiar with, so as long as you know the story of Sun Monkey, basically You can enjoy the story without any obstacles

[Candidate 2: The country that reflects Chinese history].

Since we are a country of 5,000 years of civilization, as long as people who have gone through history classes, we should know that there are too many stories worthy of being told in Chinese history. When the historical works of Japan are not the story of the Edo shogun era, if our domestic creators want to use history as the background, then from the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, we can continue to provide inspiration to everyone

The history of the country can be divided into several categories. If it is built on a magnificent background, then we can see the bloody wars and the major turning point in changing China’s destiny. Even junior high school students will be very familiar with the history of Qin Shihuang’s unification of the six countries and the Tang Dynasty’s Wanbang to the DPRK. As long as you have enough production funds, I believe that the country that you have made will also have a very high standard, which will bring shock to everyone who watches the works

And if you build on the perspective of historical celebrities, there are also many stories to dig. For example, on the occasion of the national crisis, a small person came forward and came up with a story of rebellion. In the same year, “Mulan Ci” described such a hero who disguised as a man. Since this story has been adapted into an animated film by foreign counterparts in the past, along with the maturity of Guoman technology, the local version of the animation “Hua Mulan” seems to have been born. If you don’t consider war, you can also tell some stories about the birth of China’s four inventions, telling how these inventors have brought people to change the times through daily practice and hard work

At the same time, such works can also look very sad. After all, since the Opium War, China has fallen into a long trough, and even once worried that it will not kill the country. The depiction of modern China through Guo Man’s works can let everyone know why we are constantly working hard and feel grateful for today’s peaceful life…

In short, Chinese history is definitely a super treasure house, and it is still open to the mind, waiting for the creators to explore

[Candidate 3: The country that reflects moral culture].

Since ancient times, China has always given people the impression of a “moral country.” When we study ancient Chinese in the classroom, we are often touched by the spirit of the ancients, “not the food of the future,” “the worry of the world before and the worry.”

But living in this era, many people may only focus on the material life in front of them, and many social uncivilized behaviors are constantly being staged. It is hard to imagine that these things will appear in a “moral country.”

Then, if there is such a national product, perhaps it will be very interesting: the protagonist is an ordinary student living in a real society. He has received good tutoring since he was a child, so he hopes to use his virtue to let everyone pass. A better life. However, the power of the individual is limited, which makes him lack sufficient ability even when he wants to stop, such as touching porcelain, littering, bullying and weakening. One day, a messenger who claimed to be the “God of Morality” came to his side, giving him the ability to punish those who violated morality. For example, an adult man has been carefully cared for by his parents since he was a child. When he grows up, he does not understand what he is supporting his parents. He regards his parents as “old and not dead.” Under the initiative of the protagonist’s ability, the man saw the scene that he was spurned by the child in the future, and finally realized his mistake and re-taken his parents to take care of him. For example, those who rely on porcelain to swindle money will also fall into the illusion set by the protagonist, seeing that they have been killed by touching porcelain, and the pictures of their loved one’s crying and crying. When the porcelain toucher wakes up from the illusion, naturally it will not do such a thing

Obviously, if there is such a national drama of this kind of story, then it caters to the popular “Long Aotian” theme on the one hand, and emphasizes the importance of morality on the other hand, so it will not only receive anime. The favor of fans may also change the perception of animation in the whole society

[Candidate 4: The country that reflects the traditional Chinese festivals].

Now we just open a Japanese anime and basically see this story: When the festivals like Valentine’s Day/Christmas/Japanese New Year come, the characters in the works will celebrate in a lively way. Festivals, and many major events happen in such festivals. When we are attracted to the plot of the work, we will be unconsciously affected. We believe that the festivals depicted in the works are very interesting and meaningful, and thus have a strong affection for these festivals

And since foreign works can make such articles on festivals, what reason can Guoman not do? From the current time, the most important holiday that is closest to us should be the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival is the day of family reunion. On the eve of the Spring Festival, many people living in different places in China (and even in other countries and regions of the world) joined the army of the Spring Festival, hoping to go home in time and be close to those who have not seen for a long time. Speak old and chat. As for the activities of the Spring Festival, such as Spring Festival couplets, watching the Spring Festival Evening, and suppressing old money, they can also provide a lot of creative inspiration. Of course, not only the Spring Festival, but also the Qingming Festival for the ancestors, the Mid-Autumn Festival for the hometown, the Chinese Valentine’s Day, and the Tanabata, all of which will contain endless stories, just waiting for the creators. Found it

Compared with foreign festivals with certain cultural barriers, since traditional Chinese festivals are close by, everyone will experience each year. Therefore, when a country is the theme of such a festival, or if it involves related plots, It is easy for anime fans to have a sense of intimacy!

[Candidate 5: The country that reflects traditional Chinese thoughts].

Although the way of modern life may be influenced by many foreign cultures, it is undeniable that our ancestors still left a lot of valuable thoughts. Even today, we can still get enough nutrition from them. Everyone’s life has also greatly helped

For example, let us recall the ancient texts we have learned. Think about Confucius’s “learning from time to time”, “threesomes must have my teacher”, etc. Is it also a great inspiration for us? Not only these Confucian cultures, but in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, hundreds of contends have collided with countless sparks of thought. Legalists, Mohist, and even Taoist families have left a lot of books, and it is worth taking a look at today

And maybe someone would say that it would be a little difficult to see ancient thoughts, and the classical Chinese made people sleepy. At this time, maybe we need the help of the country. Imagine that if a country is dedicated to the thoughts of Confucius, Mencius, or Laozi, and with easy-to-understand stories, then the threshold for understanding these ideas will be greatly reduced

Many years ago, the cartoonist Cai Zhizhong created similar works and inspired many readers. Now, what are the reasons for the creators of Guofan to carry forward without further promotion?

[Candidate 6: The National Man of Chinese Kung Fu]

If you are looking for a foreigner and asking them their first impression of China, many people may think of “Kung Fu.” Yes, a few decades ago, influenced by movie stars such as Bruce Lee, Chinese Kung Fu once became popular all over the world. When Toyama was created “Dragon Ball”, it was obviously affected by many Chinese kungfu. Since even foreigners are so obsessed with such traditional culture, can we as a Chinese person do the same?

In fact, there are indeed many national works that reflect the theme of Chinese Kung Fu. In the “Wulin Descendants”, where popularity has risen rapidly in recent years, we can see how martial artists continue to carry forward martial arts in modern society. The cartoons adapted from Jin Yong’s novels also shaped the great moves of Qiankun, Jiuyang Shengong, and Dragon’s Eighteen Palms. Although they are more exaggerated, they can make countless readers excited

It’s obvious that works that embody Chinese Kung Fu tends to be particularly cool, making it easy for the audience to create a sense of substitution, and can’t help but YY “If I can learn Kung Fu, then I will do it.” In this era when Chinese culture continues to be exported abroad, the Guoman works with the theme of kung fu will surely enter the international market better!

[Candidate 7: Guo Man adapted from Chinese literary works].

In the thousands of years of history, our people have left a lot of literary treasures. Poetry, poetry, novels, etc., still leave us with many precious memories of modern people until today

Previously, China’s four famous novels have long been the object of many animation works. Earlier we mentioned the adaptation of “The Return of the Great Stories” from “Journey to the West”. The “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” is not only in China, but even an indispensable element in Japan’s ACG. As for the “Water Margin”, there were some second-generation works, and “Dream of Red Mansions” was regarded by many people as “an ancient version of the harem works.” Because the four famous books are really too classic, so as long as we change the angle a little, now we can still adapt the interesting country

Not only are the four great masterpieces, I want to see if we can create a homesick story of a stranger from Li Bai’s “Looking at Hometown”. Can you feel the grief of the poet on the country’s broken mountains and rivers from the verses of “Wang Shibei’s Central Plains Day, the family sacrifices have not forgotten to be Nai Weng”? As long as they are good at discovering, the essence of these parcels in literary works can add more brilliance to the country

I have discussed with you the nationalism that reflects the traditional Chinese culture. I don’t know what kind of works are more preferred. Everyone is welcome to comment positively, and good comments will be displayed in tomorrow’s topic

And yesterday’s topic “The most representative male character in 2018” also triggered a lot of comments from anime fans. Let’s take a look at what the representative says
