My Animation Era

The Three Kingdoms is a very exciting historical story, especially after it has been modified by "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is seven parts true and three parts false.

The extremely high-quality story, coupled with the production of Wanbao Animation, the effect presented is naturally the best among the best.

Then here comes the problem!

On the premise that the animation "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" performed very well in all aspects, which part has the most enthusiastic response from the audience and the highest evaluation?

Compelling plot?

Industry-leading production?

Or... music that is widely sung?

The answer seems a bit unexpected. The part that received the most praise from the audience and received the most praise and praise was actually the image creation and dubbing of the animated characters.

The animated characters have been well received, which was expected by Gu Miao, Ma Kui and Xiao Quan.

Because at the beginning of creation, everyone held countless seminars around the character's image design. The energy expended in this aspect is obvious to all, and the praise received from the audience can only be said to be well-deserved.

But the dubbing was well received, which surprised Gu Miao and others.

This is not to say that the dubbing actors in the animated "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are very poor and the dubbing effect is not satisfactory, so it does not deserve everyone's praise and praise.

But when choosing dubbing teachers, Ma Kui and Koizumi did not follow the convention and used all standard Mandarin dubbing actors to record.

"We don't want to restore the ancient Chinese accent to the greatest extent, but at least bring a bit of regional accent to let people roughly understand where this character comes from."

Based on this consideration, when selecting dubbing actors, Ma Kui and Koizumi chose many dubbing actors who had a slight understanding of ancient dialect accents.

Do not misunderstand.

This is not a dialect animation!

The Mandarin accent in ancient times was mostly accented with tongue-in-cheek accents. Listening to it now is almost like reciting a mantra. Of course, animation lines cannot be recorded like that.

It's just that Ma Kui and Xiao Quan asked the dubbing teacher to use what they have learned throughout their lives and try their best to speak with a slight accent of ancient dialects, combining ancient and modern times.

Take Cao Cao as an example.

According to the geographical classification at that time, Cao Cao should have spoken the Peiguo Qiao County dialect. This kind of dialect should be difficult to restore in modern times, but it is still okay to add a little accent and modal particles.

This approach is quite bold.

On the basis of Mandarin, some ancient Chinese accent modal particles are integrated, and you can definitely understand it. After all, it is still Mandarin!

But the way of speaking sounds very strange. To be honest, Ma Kui and Koizumi are not sure whether the audience can accept this dubbing method.

Never imagined.

As soon as this dubbing style was broadcast, it quickly gained the love of the audience. Everyone said that they were used to listening to Mandarin with correct words and round accents, and almost thought that the ancients also spoke Mandarin like us.

After watching the animation of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", I realized that the accents and accents of ancient people spoke like this, and this sense of immersion came immediately.

certainly!

This innovation of the animation production team has received not only praise, but also criticism and criticism from various paleolinguists and N-level experts in Mandarin.

Because in the animation, the modal particles used by the characters are ancient, but mainly modern Mandarin. In the eyes of experts, this is just like those fake foreign devils who like to use English words in their speech, and are half-foreign but not native. It is too awkward.

"Either use pure ancient Chinese, or use standard Mandarin, half ancient and half modern, making people laugh!"

The production team humbly accepts and apologizes for this accusation.

They also know that this is indeed because their work is not good enough, but there is nothing they can do about it. If they are making an animation, where can they hire professional experts in ancient Chinese research?

Fortunately, the controversy is minor.

This is just like when an online article called First Chaos came out, in which Qin Shihuang spoke in dialect and made countless people laugh.

Although everyone knows that Qin Shihuang in ancient times could not speak with the dialect accent he has today, but his speaking like this has a program effect!

The same is true for the animation "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Experts see everything as flaws, but ordinary people don't understand that. They just think that these characters speak quite interestingly, with the accent of the ancients.

This is enough!

99% of ordinary viewers think it is okay, which is already a success for the animation "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

As for the complaints and criticisms of a few people, let them be.

No doubt about it!

Wanbao's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" animation, which has excellent performance in all aspects, is definitely the most surprising work in the first half of this year.

Audiences, both children and adults, gave the animation high marks and praise.

This is also one of the TV animations whose reputation rate is second only to "That Rabbit That Year" since the establishment of Wanbao Animation.

That rabbit is a special situation.

Excluding Natu, the new version of the animated Three Kingdoms is one of the three animations with the highest reputation from Wanbao.

The other two animations with excellent reputation are "Digimon" and "Tom and Jerry".

Even Bugs Bunny's reputation performance is lower than that of the new version of the animated Three Kingdoms. After all, Bugs Bunny has no emotional blessing, and "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is an adaptation of a famous work.

Speaking of word of mouth, we have to mention another thing.

During the month when the new version of the animated Three Kingdoms hit the airwaves, countless children fell in love with Zhuge Liang, and then spontaneously started learning "Chu Shi Biao".

Good guy!

When Gu Miao saw this current news, she almost laughed out loud.

Start memorizing the text now. When you go to junior high school and learn this article, why don't you go up to the podium and show off to the teacher "reciting it backwards and forwards like a stream"?

"Students, today we are going to study the text "Being a Teacher". This is a key question in the high school entrance examination in previous years. Everyone must study it carefully..."

"Tell the teacher, I can memorize it in the third grade of elementary school!"

Hahaha!

Thinking of this scene, Gu Miao suddenly smiled. It seems that children today cannot understand the pain he was tortured by "Shi Shi Biao" back then.

Oh, that's not right...

He had also watched the animation "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" when he was a child. Why didn't he become interested in "Chu Shi Biao" at that time?

"Almost forgot!"

Gu Miao slapped her forehead and immediately remembered the past. When he watched the animation "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", his favorite was not Zhuge Liang but Liu Bei.

No wonder he has no interest in becoming a master. It turns out that when he played house, he played the role of "the first emperor"!

When Zhuge Liang wrote out the teacher list, the late emperor had already died. In which round will he appear?

Chinese teacher, what an injustice!

It’s not that I don’t want to recite the teacher’s instructions, but when I write the instructions, I’m already dead. How can I recite the text while sleeping in a coffin?

Let your son carry it!

Not wanting her son to lose at the starting line, Gu Miao immediately decided to let Xiao Sensen start memorizing ancient poems and teaching lessons now.

Other children start to curl up after watching an animation. If my son doesn’t work hard now, how will he be able to beat these peers in the future?
