Important cartoon images made in China.

The Monkey King is more classic! Little tadpoles looking for their mothers, three monks and monkeys fishing for the moon, and Sean in Lotus Lantern and Nezha in Legend of Nezha in recent years are also ok ~

China's art films began with animated films. 1920, Shanghai's Wan Laiming, Wan Guchan, Wan He Atlas (known as "Wan Brothers") watched early American cartoons such as Popeye and Miss Bobby in the cinema, and became interested in this art form, so they began to develop animated films in China.

1926, Wan Brothers overcame many difficulties such as funds, venues and materials, and finally successfully developed China's first animated film "Make a scene"; It is also the beginning of China's fine arts films.

The film tells the story of a painter who suddenly jumped off the drawing board while painting in the studio and made a scene in the studio. Although the plot of the film is simple, the Wan brothers who are engaged in animation creation for the first time have encountered many problems. When shooting, either the place that should move does not move, or the place that should not move moves; After many experiments and repeated explorations, they succeeded in shooting. This film is also the first cartoon in China in which Wan Guchan plays the role of a painter and animates a small paper man. The film is produced by Great Wall Film Company, with a length of 12 minutes. Two years later, Wan Guchan independently produced the animated film A Letter Sent Back. After the two films were released, they aroused great interest from the audience.

Wan Brothers is a pioneer in China's fine arts and animation film industry. They came to Shanghai from Nanjing in the early 20th century, and successively entered the Commercial Press to engage in fine arts. Their original names were Wan Jiazong, Wan, Wan Jiajie and Wan respectively, and the names in the comics were their own pen names. In order to develop cartoons, they worked around the clock for a long time in a 7-square-meter pavilion on Tiantong 'an Road in Zhabei, Shanghai. It took several years and hundreds of experiments to complete the development of China's first cartoon.

1935, Wan Brothers filmed China's first animated film Camel Dance. 194 1 year, they released China's first ministerial animated film Princess Iron Fan, which was also the longest animated film in Asia at that time and ranked fourth in the world. After liberation, Wan Laiming, Wan Guchan and Wan of the four brothers, except Lao Sihuan, left the animation creation post, and all became the main founders of Shanghai Animation Film Studio. From 1960, they began to re-create the large-scale animated film "Make a scene in Heaven", which they tried before liberation. After that, it took another four years to draw nearly 70,000 paintings in 1963, and finally completed this masterpiece of 120 minutes. This film is not only very popular in China, but also won the first prize in the international film festival. It has also been shown in dozens of countries around the world, which indicates that China's fine arts films have entered the advanced ranks in the world. In addition, Wan Guchan filmed China's first newspaper clipping "Pig Eight Rings Eat Watermelon" on 1957.

Princess Iron Fan is the first large-scale cartoon in China, produced by Shanghai Xinhua Film Company 194 1 and produced by China United Film Company. It put China landscape painting on the screen, and moved the still landscape for the first time, thus adding more rich national characteristics to this cartoon.

The film depicts four Taoist priests and disciples of the Tang Dynasty who went to the Western Heaven to learn Buddhist scriptures and were blocked by the Flame Mountain. The Monkey King and Pig Bajie went to the Bajiao Cave in Cuiping Mountain and borrowed a banana fan from Niu's wife, Princess Tiefan, to put out the fire, but Princess Tiefan refused to borrow it. After several rounds of fighting with the princess and Niu Wangmo, Wukong and Bajie finally got a treasure fan, put out the fire in the Flame Mountain and embarked on the journey of learning from the scriptures. The story of this film is full of twists and turns. For example, the Monkey King turned a bug into an iron fan princess and made a scene. Pig Bajie turned into Niu Wangmo and cheated the real fan from Princess Iron Fan. Niu Wangmo turned into Pig Bajie, and tricked the fans back from the Monkey King. Many other plots were handled with great interest and fascination. It has absorbed the characteristics of China traditional opera plastic arts, and endowed the Monkey King, Pig Bajie, Princess Iron Fan and Princess Jade Face with distinct personality characteristics.
