   "Those Things That Rabbit That Year"

   This is the original name of the mysterious "X" project, and this animation is definitely an unforgettable memory for many people, especially those younger generations who grew up listening to the stories of their parents' heroes.

  Gu Miao was no exception.

  He will never forget that when he saw "Things About That Rabbit That Year" for the first time, he tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep, the unspeakable feeling of being moved and excited at the same time.

  Third-rate companies make products, second-rate companies make brands, and first-rate companies make standards.

   This sentence is widely spread.

   With reference to this sentence, it can also be said in the animation circle that the third-rate animation has distinctive characters, the second-rate animation has details in place, and the first-rate animation has strong emotions!

no doubt.

  The animation "Things About That Rabbit That Year" is the kind of work with strong emotions, which can make the audience deeply feel the weight of history and ignite patriotic enthusiasm.

  Some people say this is a "military popular" work, others say it is a "patriotic" educational film, and some say...

  In fact, they are all wrong.

  For this animation, the most accurate definition should be that it is a popular work of the modern history of Huaguo created with "military/history" as the bone, "family and country feelings" as the flesh and blood, and the second dimension as the skin.

  With the help of this work, a huge and special fan group was born in China, referred to as "rabbit fans".

  From the perspective of an animation producer, Gu Miao's evaluation of this animation work is very simple.

   "True feelings are more important than anything else."

  Compared to those anime works with exploding technology, super expressive screens, and deep and thoughtful plots, this work is extremely thin, and it is nothing more than "simplifying what happened in modern times."

   Sounds like that?

   Who doesn't know modern history? Even if there is something I don't understand, wouldn't it be clear if I read the history books?

  But the strong family and country feelings shown in the animation/manga, the strong patriotic enthusiasm, and the vivid interpretation of the history of humiliation and rise in modern times are the main reasons why this animation is popular all over the country.

certainly!

   There is actually another very important reason why animation is so popular.

  Using the perspective of "animal anthropomorphism", the integration of various modern buzzwords and new stalks adds a lot of fun to the original serious history, which is also the key to success.

   "Anthropomorphic animals, one kind of animal per country? This setting is indeed quite new." Hou Bin said in shock.

   "Is it fresh?"

   "Look around on the super large Weibo post bar, and you will know that these words are not new." Hearing Hou Bin's words, Gu Miao decided to test him.

  So he thought for a while and asked: "Do you know the origin of the titles of Eagle Sauce, Maoxiong, and Foot Pot Chicken?"

"Well…"

  Hou Bin frowned, thinking hard: "Isn't it the nicknames given by the netizens based on the names of these countries?"

   "It is indeed a nickname, but the question I ask is, why are these nicknames born?"

   "Then I don't know very well."

  Hou Bin shook his head, expressing that he did not know.

   Gu Miao was not surprised by this.

  As a middle-aged greasy man, Hou Bin is definitely not as powerful as young people like them in surfing the Internet, so it is understandable not to know.

   "This is to avoid suspicion."

   "Avoid suspicion? What do you mean?"

   "Is there any need to ask? Which of the posts posted by these military fans is insensitive or irritating?"

  Gu Miao curled her lips and said, "If you directly mention the names of countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States, then everyone is afraid of being deleted, banned, or even invited to drink tea!"

   "In addition, after the Internet censorship mechanism changed, many websites added sensitive words and prohibited thesaurus. It is also the consensus of netizens to give these countries a nickname."

"So this is ah…"

  Hou Bin just nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked: "How did the rabbit get here? Does Huaguo have anything to do with the rabbit?"

   "Ahem, it's just a homonym."

  Gu Miao didn't want to talk too much about this topic, because it was too dangerous.

   What's more, the origin of the word "rabbit" is someone else to put it bluntly, and it is actually not a "good word".

  …

   After briefly explaining to Hou Bin about the content framework of the mysterious "X" project, Gu Miao left Lightning Studio.

  It's getting late.

  Since he had to take his wife to the hospital for a routine pregnancy test in the afternoon, he had to hurry up and solve the problem of "art design" as soon as possible.

  Wanbao Animation, Wolf Castle Studio.

  In the production team of the animation "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Kingdom", a group of art designers are holding pens and paper, listening to Mr. Gu's request on the design of "character modeling".

   "First, the hairstyle should be bright!"

  Gu Miao raised her index finger and emphasized again: "If you want to play poker well, you must have an enchanting hairstyle! I need that kind of hairstyle...that makes you know how to play poker at first sight, do you understand?"

  Understand...understand a hammer!

  A hairstyle that looks good at poker?

   What kind of abstract descriptor is this? Whose card playing skills will be linked to hairstyles? Even at first glance, he is very good at playing cards. Is there any direct connection between the two?

   All the beauties showed embarrassment, and realized that this might be a hard job.

  Before the meeting, no one said that they would make such a big change to the characters involved in the "original manga".

  Be reasonable.

  In the first volume of the manga "Yu-Gi-Oh" written by Nantong, the hairstyle of the protagonist [Game] is already very enchanting.

  How else can I change it?

   How about giving him an afro?

   "Shallow!"

  Gu Miao said contemptuously: "Who told you that an afro is good at playing cards? The hairstyle I'm talking about, who is good at playing cards just by looking at it, refers to this kind of..."

   Angled and brightly colored.

  The barber looked at the silence, and the buried love family felt ashamed when they saw it. The strange hairstyle that ordinary people can't imagine in their dreams!

   Actually.

  In the manga, the game’s hairstyle is already very abstract and exaggerated. But it was a black and white manga after all, without coloring, the grid was very small, and the details of the hairstyle were not enough.

  The template that Gu Miao used to show was roughly the same as the hairstyle in the game in the comics, but the overall shape was more exaggerated.

   That's not the point.

   The point is this hair color...

Hey Hey hey!

   Is this dyed hair? How could someone dye this color that is even more non-mainstream than non-mainstream, join the funeral love family, and be as high as a patriarch's color?

  Is this purple and yellow color really a hair color that humans can control?

   There are also these clusters of "hedgehog"-like curled hair, which is amazing with this weird hair color.

   "Don't worry about it so much!"

   "Let me ask you, does this hairstyle and hair color make you very good at playing cards?"

  Zhongmei Design: "..."

  Naqueshi!

  With such an eye-catching hairstyle and hair color, who would believe that this kid is not the protagonist?
