Moreover, it's not just foreign netizens who are like this; even Japanese netizens are going crazy.
After all, Japan is deeply influenced by Chinese culture and is very accepting of everything about the Monkey King.
Putting everything else aside, today's trending topics in Japan are all related to the Monkey King. There are a few related to the palace, but the Monkey King has taken all the spotlight.
Even Japan is in such a predicament, unable to stop the Monkey King's invasion; other countries are probably not much better off.
On the Chinese internet.
Netizens were overjoyed.
News of events happening in other countries around the world gradually reached China.
They were not surprised by this.
"Of course, the Monkey King's charm is unparalleled, it's normal for foreigners to like him."
"What kind of magic can compare to Monkey King's iron cudgel?"
"In terms of culture, we have always been at the forefront of the world. Once it is discovered, it will surely shock the world."
"We didn't have the chance before, but now that we do, aren't we allowed to dominate the world?"
"As for Palace, there's nothing we can do but leave it to fate. But I feel that there will definitely be people who watch it, after all, Palace has been popular for decades."
"Animated films were originally intended for children, but I've found that they've become increasingly detached from today's children. Perhaps it's the Monkey King's animation that has helped children rediscover the charm of animated films."
"Yes, animated films these days have become animated films for adults. But can they be the same as children? That's why animated films must maintain a positive message. But look at the charts, how many of them actually meet that requirement?"
"Those brutal fighting scenes are one thing, as long as the core message is sound. But those lovey-dovey scenes, I really want to crack open the heads of the creators and see what's inside them. Is this stuff for kids?"
"Even Miyazaki and Tom are not immune to this. To be precise, the entire animated film industry is undergoing this change quietly, and no one has realized it yet."
"Tao reflected on this, so his works successfully broke through the cultural barriers of various countries and entered the hearts of children around the world. In my opinion, this is the meaning of animated films, this is what true animated films are. From the very beginning, they were created to serve children, not to become toys for adults to play with."
Some realized that this seemed like an opportunity, a chance for the animated film industry to return to its roots.
Over the years, people have long realized that today's animated films have long since deviated from the original essence of animated films.
Animated films in the past were never made for adults, but for children.
However, children lack the ability to make their own purchases and are gradually replaced by adults.
Gradually, they began to ignore the children's interests and hobbies and started to please the adults.
Only in this way will the adults be willing to spend money.
However, both the animation film industry and adults have overlooked the educational significance of animated films for children.
The animation film industry generates revenue by serving adults, and adults, in turn, control children's interests by controlling money.
Both the former and the latter subconsciously forget about the child.
This situation has continued to this day.
Until the emergence of the Tao.
The reason his work is excellent is that it considers not only adults, but also children.
Even so-called adults are just incidental; the real core is still the child.
Moreover, its core message of edutainment is something that other animated films lack.
Perhaps they also have these qualities, but they could never be as outstanding as Dao.
The children's performance proves this point.
Perhaps their choice not to watch the anime film is precisely because they have learned to follow their hearts and make the right choice.
Or perhaps, they want to rebel against the current environment.
Wan Lei and his two companions already understood these principles after watching the animated film.
In fact, they already knew.
Just knowing something doesn't mean they can do it.
Otherwise, why would they have ranked so low in this competition?
The reason for this is simply that understanding something is one thing, and actually putting it into practice is another.
All three were amazed by the profound and unfathomable nature of the Dao.
The appearance of this work allowed the three of them to see the gap between the two sides more directly.
"Back then, we also wanted to fully integrate education into animated films, but we failed. We simply couldn't make any changes to the industry as a whole."
Wan Lei sighed. They wanted to change the status quo, but they couldn't. The mainstream audience for animated films was still adults, not children.
"Yes, that's why we thought about incorporating traditional culture, hoping it would be accepted by children. Unfortunately, our skills are still not deep enough to make it appealing to both adults and children," Gu Han nodded.
They had previously produced an animated film related to the Monkey King, but in every aspect, it was no match for this "Havoc in Heaven".
The end result was that it looked out of place to adults and strange to children, failing to cause any stir and simply blending into the crowd.
"This makes the existence of the Dao all the more precious to the Celestial Empire, and even more so to the children of the world," Qingfeng praised without reservation.
