The full text is 5,000 words and takes about 8 minutes to read.
In 2006, China's first animated film (Mobius Ring) was released. It took five years and more than 130 million RMB to make, but it only earned 3.4 million RMB. During the same period, the American animated film (Ice Age 2) earned 667 million US dollars, about 4.8 billion RMB, which is more than 1,000 times the box office of (Mobius Ring).
Since then, there have been comments that domestic animated films cannot compete with Hollywood special effects and that the box office will never be able to lift its head. However, everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you start a new journey and are on the road, all that remains is to keep working hard to get closer to the goal. The Chinese are least afraid of being swept. After continuous hard work, in 2025, the box office of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Conquers the Dragon King" reached 15.8 billion yuan, making it into the top five in global film history and becoming a footnote to the cultural confidence of an entire generation. At the same time, the strongest Western animation, DreamWorks' "Detective Dog", only had a box office equivalent to about 1 billion yuan. This time, we won. We won thoroughly and beautifully. But this cultural reversal only happened in animated films. In the meme world, we are still at the starting line.
