My Animation Era

What kind of animation is that rabbit?

Some people may say that this is a positive animation work with far-reaching influence and arousing the patriotic feelings of countless young people.

it is a pity……

This is not a complete answer.

Natu's influence is not limited to young people. In a sense, this is a family animation "suitable for all ages".

At the beginning of the animation, it was true that only young people liked to watch it. But as time goes by, the influence of the works has further spread, and the "rabbit fans" group has long surpassed the category of young people.

Old people and children can also watch it.

Although compared with young people, the number of old people and children who like "That Year of the Rabbit" is relatively small.

But if an animation can attract the elderly to watch, isn’t this an “achievement”?

Gu Miao originally thought.

Even if he, Wanbao Animation and Wanbao Video Website are well prepared, the influence of Wanbao's version of "That Rabbit That Year" animation may not be as good as the original version.

But he never expected it.

In this parallel world, people's love for "That Rabbit" and the degree of social recognition far exceeded his imagination.

In just two days since the animation was launched, the first episode has been viewed more than 50 million times, and it is making great strides towards the goal of 100 million views for a single episode.

On Weibo, entries related to Natu animation have been in the top ten of the hot search list.

Various official media have forwarded Natu animation video clips one after another, giving high praise to Wanbao Animation and director Gu Miao...

Phenomenal level?

Circle-breaking anime?

I feel that these words are not very appropriate when used with "That Rabbit That Year". There is no way to describe the popularity of the Natu animation after it was broadcast.

Unfortunately!

The animation "Those Things About That Rabbit That Year" is only broadcast exclusively on the Wanbao Video website and is not available on major TV stations. Otherwise, the influence of animation would be exaggerated!

Of course, just this kind of influence is already giving Gu Miao and everyone in the animation production team a headache.

Too much praise!

After the first episode of the animation was aired, it was almost overwhelmingly praised by the entire Internet. You can’t find a single negative comment even with a microscope.

Under this premise, everyone's expectations for the following episodes are simply overwhelming.

Gu Miao was also a little scared.

It’s not that he’s afraid of word-of-mouth backlash, he’s mainly afraid that the second, third, and even subsequent episodes won’t be good enough to satisfy everyone.

Why is the first episode so exciting?

Because the content of the first episode mainly tells the modern history of humiliation and struggle of flower growers, this is also the most touching part.

But the subsequent episodes began to talk about some major events at home and abroad.

There are still touching stories, but they are definitely not as touching as the first episode. Gu Miao is very worried that everyone's expectations for the following episodes will be heightened because of the first episode.

That might be a bad thing.

…

With the entire production team in a nervous mood, Wanbao Video released the second episode of the animation at the turn of the hour on Friday.

Attack on Smecta!

The plot of the second episode continues the timeline of the first episode, mainly telling the cold war between Yingjiang and Mao Xiong about "ice cream".

At the same time, on Koryo Street near the flower grower's house, the two brothers had a dispute and fought with each other...

The beginning of the second episode is relatively less touching than the first episode.

no way!

One is a story that happens inside a flower grower, and the other is a story from abroad. Everyone must feel more deeply about the story inside their own home.

Just when everyone thought that this episode of "That Year of the Rabbit" was not as high-energy as the previous episode and that everyone could relax, the rabbit appeared.

"Have you been urged?"

"Forget it, leave the bear alone."

When the familiar rabbit was sitting by the river, looking at the neighbors in the distance, he said categorically: "The ancestors are right, the mountain depends on everyone, we can only rely on ourselves."

"Let's go fight Eagle Sauce!"

"Guys, wait for me!"

"I will return……"

Crossing the YL River with great vigor and high spirits.

As a group of rabbits gathered together, holding torches in the dark of night, and hurriedly walked to the other side of the river in the biting cold wind, the audience, who had originally relaxed expressions, fell silent again for an instant.

Wasn't it promised to be lighthearted and funny?

Didn't it say that the suffering is over, and the subsequent plot can give everyone a break, and can the rabbits also live a good life?

Why?

Why do people always come to disturb the rabbits' peaceful life? Why are there always people who are willing to bear the burden and move forward? Why do they always cry like a child watching animations in the dead of night?

No one knows the answer.

The only thing the audience can know is that the ancestors once again embarked on a journey to create a stable and happy living environment for the rabbits in the flower garden.

With so many people out, how many can come back safely?

At the thought of this, the eyes of the audience, whether men, women, old or young, whether they had personally experienced this period of history or not, all became wet.

That year, someone was gone forever...

The same "Chasing Dreams" played again, the same old black and white photos, the same audience, the same tears.

"To be honest, I cried when I saw it."

Director Wang, who wiped the wet corners of his eyes with a tissue and came specially to attend Gu Miao's son's full moon party, said with emotion: "I am about to turn sixty. I cried while watching a cartoon. Who can tell me this?" Can you believe it?"

"I believe it!"

Gu Miao nodded and said, "Don't talk about you anymore. After my dad finished watching that rabbit cartoon, he went home and cried in bed under the covers."

"Really? Your dad is quite emotional."

"He's not sentimental, he's just being reminded of sad past events."

Gu Miao shook his head. After all, it was his own family matter and he was too embarrassed to tell Director Wang.

Although Lao Gu is an orphan.

But in his early years, he actually had an adoptive father who could not see clearly in his left eye. He relied on riding a tricycle and scavenging to support Lao Gu.

Lao Gu, his adoptive father, was a veteran who had participated in a series of battles back then.

Unfortunately, the old man did not adopt Lao Gu and died of illness within a few years. After watching the animation, Lao Gu couldn't help but burst into tears just thinking about him.

Lao Gu never mentioned this matter.

Even Gu Miao never knew about this "grandpa". It was only after Lao Gu got drunk on his last birthday and kept nagging her that Gu Miao knew about this grandpa's existence.

He also asked someone to inquire.

He originally thought that if the old man had relatives or descendants, he would take it over to recognize his relatives, so as to repay the old man's kindness in adopting Lao Gu in the first place.

Who knew that the old man was really alone, his wife, children, parents and relatives all died in that era of war and chaos.

He has no worries.

If there is anything I can't let go of, it's my motherland.

Every time he thought about this, Gu Miao couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps this is the reason why the rabbit animation is so touching and makes people cry.

Blanch! The previous chapter was sent...
