Chapter 263 Soaring Up Nine Thousand Miles
The involvement of Mr. Shanming and Pixar has set the stage for a fierce competition.
It has a trend of "the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their unique abilities".
However, netizens soon discovered that the so-called "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Displaying Their Unique Skills" was nothing more than a comparison of works.
If we compare them based on their affiliation with the competition, then it's no longer a phenomenon of diverse schools of thought contending.
Only two works were among the top ten.
One of them is from Japan.
One of them is Disney.
The Dao's works were completely removed from the first stage and rolled down to an unknown number of steps.
Therefore, in the current first stage, only two companies are competing.
It was only at this point that netizens around the world witnessed how terrifying Japan truly was.
While Japan may have dominated the rankings in the past, it would never have done so as completely as it does now, leaving no chance for anyone else.
Seeing that eight or nine out of ten entries on the leaderboard were from Japan, not only the contestants felt despair, but many netizens also felt despair.
At the World Forum, this phenomenon was subjected to a kind of pointless criticism.
"We beg you, Japanese bigwigs, please have mercy and give us a way to live."
"It seems that Japan is preparing to make a big splash in this competition."
"It has to be said that Japan has almost perfected its cultural promotion to the outside world."
"Damn, Japan has more entries in the top ten than all of our country's entries combined, and more entries in the top three hundred than China."
"And you're talking about the Celestial Empire? Daoist works have been squeezed out of existence somewhere."
"China is not even as good as India. Although only five of our works made it into the top 1,000, China has only four. They are far behind us."
"If you compare them like that, our Great Han has dozens of works that are in the top 1,000, and their rankings are generally higher than yours."
"We don't compare ourselves to small countries. Looking at the world's animated films, only China can be compared to us; the rest are nothing special."
"You're a Chinese person disguised as an Indian, aren't you? You're even using ancient Chinese phrases!"
"Who said China only has four animated films? Now it has five."
Five already?
Many Chinese netizens who follow the forum were stunned. There were four parts before, but now there are five?
With questions in mind, a group of Chinese netizens returned to the Chinese charts to search for the extra work.
You won't believe it until you see it, and what you find will shock you.
"Wow, the extra works were uploaded by Dao!"
A familiar name.
An unfamiliar work.
This instantly stirred up the emotions of many Chinese netizens.
They really didn't expect that Dao would have a second work.
And it has already been uploaded.
What are we waiting for?
They definitely gave it their all.
As a result, a group of Chinese netizens clicked on Dao's work.
The title of the work still carries the unique cultural flavor of China.
The moment you open the short film, you're enveloped in a cultural atmosphere that's truly captivating.
Netizens looked at the kind and gentle nine-colored deer as if they had seen a legendary mythical beast.
Especially Chinese netizens, upon seeing the nine-colored deer, immediately thought it was an auspicious omen for China.
Graceful and charming.
Its body is pure white, with five crescent-shaped colored patches on its body.
The halo above its head imbues it with divinity.
Yet its compassionate face also imbues it with humanity.
The combination of divinity and humanity paints a stunning picture.
At first glance, Chinese netizens fell in love with this nine-colored deer.
"I recognized it at a glance; the Nine-Colored Deer is the legendary celestial deer."
"What a beautiful nine-colored deer! Seeing it, I feel as if I am seeing a compassionate deity."
"Although I had never heard of the legend of the nine-colored deer, I fell in love with it at first sight when it appeared."
"I really wish I could have a pet like that; it looks so easy to take care of."
"..."
The five-minute short film tells a clear and concise story to the audience.
The nine-colored deer saved the merchant, but the merchant repaid kindness with enmity by revealing information about the nine-colored deer to the king, resulting in punishment.
This is a very simple story that perfectly illustrates the principle of cause and effect.
Whether the children like it or not is unknown, but netizens say they really like it.
Many netizens not only liked the story, but also expressed their love for the art style.
"The style of the Nine-Colored Deer is completely different from the previous ink paintings, but it looks just as comfortable."
"He finally realized that black and white animated films were no longer suitable for the times, so he switched to making color animated films."
"What kind of art style is this? I don't think I've ever seen it before."
"..."
Discussions like these abound, but what netizens care about most is still the ranking.
The Nine-Colored Deer appeared silently, much like a reclusive sage who didn't care about fame and therefore rarely publicized it.
Otherwise, he only needs to promote it a little, and the media will report on his new work.
Fortunately, there aren't many works from China, and every time a new work appears, there are people who spontaneously promote it, and this time is no exception.
Especially after netizens learned that this new work was by Dao, they promoted it even more enthusiastically.
In China, Nine-Colored Deer's ranking skyrocketed, rising so quickly that many people didn't even realize it before it surpassed Little Tadpole Looking for its Mother to successfully claim the top spot on the leaderboard.
