Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Douban score 9.5, B station score 9.9, the most recent domestic animation was launched, it is "China Strange Tan."

This animation was jointly launched by Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio and Station B, with a total of 8 episodes, each of which is an independent story. There are only three episodes on air, but many viewers are obviously watching it.

One of the first episode "Little Monster Summer" simply opened the king explosion, many workers after watching the call break defense.

Hearing this, you may think that it is going to tell some modern urban story, but in fact it is a journey to the west, but the protagonist has no halo background, just a pig demon patrolling the mountains.

However, it was such a passerby monster that caused everyone to receive the most direct critical hit. After all, the spirit of the little monster team did not look like you who were at work or school.

The story revolves around the monster wants to eat the Tang Priest meat, the local monster king gets the news that the Tang Priest will pass by, so he gives instructions to his demons to prepare to catch the Tang Priest.

As the audience watched, they realized that something was wrong. This wasn't a monster, it was simply human.

The positions of the entire monster team were clearly divided into king, junior king, instructor, and junior monster. The lesser demons had to compete for seniority. If they didn't have seniority, they would do the hardest work. After another thirty years of cultivation, they would have the opportunity to clean the armor for the king.

When the king comes up, he will hold a meeting. When the meeting is held, he will draw cakes for everyone. The king wants to eat Tang monk meat, follow the boss dry, have merit staff can drink a spoonful of broth.

Little Pig Demon was stunned by this.

But can the demons really drink soup? The more he looked at the plot, the more familiar it looked.

After eating the boss's big cake, the monsters began to move bricks and work.

With the task objective, the middle-level leaders assigned the division of labor and set KPI. They had to make 1000 arrows in one day. It was simply an order with their eyes closed. What Zhou Yu possessed?

The result is that the leader is drinking:

And the goblins started working like crazy.

Piglet Demon was not stupid. He soon realized that according to the leader's request, he was actually doing nothing because ordinary arrows could not hit the target at all.

He told his colleague about it, and his colleague replied,"Whatever."

This classic speech I can often hear, after all, the workplace do not ask right or wrong, do things quietly, too assertive careful back pot.

However, the pig demon was not that slippery, so he plucked his colleague's feathers and improved his bow.

Not only did he complete the task, but he did it better.

But when he claimed credit in front of the leader, he only got the familiar sentence of the leader: Are you teaching me to do things? The next step is to do it all over again, leave it alone.

Heartbroken, family.

Then the pig demon busy for two days, one day in the crazy washing pot, because to stew Tang Seng, so the pot must be clean.

A day of crazy cutting firewood, a thousand pounds a day, in order to stew Tang Seng can stew a little longer.

But a thousand pounds a day, even if the demons were exhausted, they would not be able to kill them all. As a last resort, they began to plunder the world and rob firewood.

After much effort, the demons at the bottom finally managed to gather all the firewood. The director of the pig demon fawned over the project report to the second in command of the demon team, boasting that the firewood prepared by his team could burn for three days and three nights, and could definitely cook the Tang Priest until it was fragrant and rotten.

However, the leader changed hands and set the firewood on fire.

Because the king decided not to stew the Tang monk, to barbecue.

Therefore, this thousand catties of firewood was useless. He needed two kilograms of hickory wood that was less than twenty years old to get it again. But wasn't the pot washed for nothing? Before, he said that he would share the soup. How could he still drink the soup after barbecue?

The workers felt like the CPU was burning at this moment.

It's like you've been busy for two days and two nights for the needs of Party A, but the night before the deadline, he suddenly said,"Why don't we change our thinking?"

Blood pressure immediately went up.

Of course, the story told in this episode is not entirely for the sake of complaining about the workers, it is just that people see their own lives in the pig demon and look in the mirror.

Everyone also saw kinship in the story. The nagging of the pig mother reminded many people of their mother.

Looking at the pig mother talking about the pig demon does not like to drink water, my ear is ringing "always lying down, do not wear long pants, do not sleep, play mobile phone play."

Piggy and his mother talked about their work, but also can only talk nonsense king is very optimistic about themselves, they have a future.

Piglet also began to think about the future, whether to mix in the company waiting for soup, or go out to see the bigger world.

The Great Sage was so hot-tempered. When the demons met, he wouldn't kill the piglet demon with a stick, would he? And in the eyes of the Buddhist scriptures team, what level are these busy monsters preparing to eat Tang Priest? Perhaps their painstaking preparations were just a joke to the four of them.

The end of the story, or wait for everyone to see it for themselves.

In fact, this is a very small and simple animated story, but after the story is told clearly, the plot can also ups and downs, make people cry and laugh, the audience can also read the meaning from the story, naturally will give a very high evaluation.

In addition to the story, the aesthetics of "China Strange Tan" are also very online.

The style of the first episode directly dragged people into memories. Wasn't this the cartoon that sat in front of the TV set when they were young and waited patiently for it to play?

A scene in the human world, not like the previous textbook illustrations.

The ink black magic was simply too handsome.

And this was only the first episode. Each episode was an independent story, and each episode had a different style.

The second episode "Goose Goose" tells the story of Zhiguai in ancient books in the style of ink painting:

The third episode of "Lin Lin" draws the audience's attention to the snowy mountains of Daxing 'anling:

Other episodes also have their own graphic style features:

At the same time, there is one thing in common. We are somewhat familiar with these art styles. What we tell is also our own strange stories, which are beautiful and kind.

However, it is difficult to adjust, I don't think "China Strange Tan" will meet everyone's expectations. But for 2023, its arrival is a good start.

Like me, at the beginning of the New Year, I was tearful by its lines: "Always stay up late, hair falls badly."
