Chapter 699 I Was Searching for Information for the Civil Service Exam, Why Are You Asking Me to Make a Cartoon?

The animation "Calabash Brothers" can be said to be the least optimistic animation among all the animations of Dream Building Studio before it was broadcast.

How can the characters in the animation look the same and be distinguished by color? Isn't this just to save costs?

On Earth, when Shangmei produced it, it was indeed because of insufficient costs that the seven calabash brothers were made to look the same, but the result was a classic.

It doesn't matter if they look the same, the key is whether the characters have characteristics.

Some characters in animations look different, but the audience doesn't remember them.

In a certain family, a little boy turned on the TV just after dinner.

He turned on the TV very skillfully, and after clicking a few times on the remote control, he turned it to the children's channel.

This is the only time he has to watch cartoons every day.

After watching the cartoons, he has to do his homework and then go to bed.

On the children's channel, the song "Sunny Boys and Sunny Girls" sounded.

As soon as this song sounded, the little boy could sing along.

"Your childhood and my childhood seem to be the same..."

Now when this song sounds, everyone knows that it is the animation of Sunshine Childhood Theater.

The animation of Sunshine Childhood Theater is of guaranteed quality!

The little boy sat on the sofa, staring at the TV intently.

After a while, the main film of "Calabash Brothers" came on.

At the beginning of the picture, there is a gourd-shaped mountain standing between the clouds, with a very unique shape.

Amid the music, the picture changed, and a gourd vine appeared, with seven gourds of different colors on it. A red gourd fell to the ground, and a gourd baby came out of it.

The body of the gourd baby suddenly became bigger.

The little boy's eyes lit up.

"New animation!"

The opening animation is still played here.

Then the little boy saw the water baby who spits water, the indestructible three babies, the fire baby who spits fire, and the snake spirit and the scorpion spirit.

This setting of gourd babies is close to children in age, so it is very immersive for children.

The various special abilities in it are also very attractive to children.

After the opening theme, the four characters "Calabash Brothers" appeared in the video.

The little boy remembered the name immediately and kept repeating the four characters.

Then the main film began, with an old man picking herbs on a cliff.

He accidentally fell off a cliff and landed at the entrance of a cave. The herbs he dropped were delivered to him by the bird he rescued.

At this time, a gust of wind blew up on the ground, freezing all the animals.

The old man ran into the cave, but the cave collapsed and blocked the entrance. The old man could only keep crawling forward to find a way out.

There was no line from beginning to end, and the little boy also watched it with relish.

He had never seen this unique style of painting before.

Afterwards, the old man rescued a pangolin in the cave and learned the situation from the pangolin's mouth.

In the past, there was a snake demon and a scorpion demon, who had great magical powers and brought disaster to the world. Finally, they were suppressed by the gods under the Gourd Mountain. As long as 10,000 years were up, the demon would be reduced to ashes, and there was only one year left.

But the pangolin broke through the Gourd Mountain and let the demon escape.

The pangolin brought the old man to the cave to find the treasure to suppress the demon.

As long as the treasure to suppress the demon was obtained, the demon could be suppressed again.

This treasure to suppress the demon was the treasure gourd seed.

The treasure gourd seed can take everyone away from here, and as long as another gourd is planted, the demon can be eliminated.

Then the old man took the treasure gourd seed in his hand using the herbal leaves he collected. The shape of his herbal medicine was the shape of the leaves on the gourd baby.

Finally, the Gourd Mountain was completely cracked, and the old man and the pangolin fell into the endless abyss.

The first episode ended and the song sounded.

"Calabash Brothers, Calabash Brothers, seven flowers on a vine~"

"Not afraid of wind and rain, la la la la~"

"Ding dang dang dong dong dang, Calabash Brothers~"

"Ding dang dang dong dong dang, great skills, la la la la~"

"Calabash Brothers, Calabash Brothers, great skills~"

The little boy suddenly felt that he was not satisfied.

This is too short.

Fortunately, after this episode was broadcast, a prompt appeared immediately.

"Don't go away, the next episode will be broadcast soon."

The little boy continued to wait.

Each episode of "Calabash Brothers" is only about ten minutes, which is very short now, but the rhythm is not dragged at all.

The whole series of "Calabash Brothers" is only thirteen episodes, and "Calabash Little King Kong" is only six episodes, but in the childhood memories of many people, it always feels that this story seems to be quite long.

After waiting for a while, the little boy waited for the second episode.

The old grandfather and the pangolin returned home safely with the help of the gourd seeds.

The gourd seeds drilled into the ground automatically, and the water in the bucket beside them also flowed automatically to the place where the gourd seeds were planted.

As the gourd-shaped light lit up, the gourd seeds quickly broke out of the ground. This scene of breaking out of the ground was very vivid.

The gourd vine supported the stone slab on the ground, broke the stone slab into pieces, and then continued to spread, wrapped around the stone, and erected a gourd vine in the air. Even the water in the pool automatically fell on the gourd vine.

The little boy's eyes widened when he saw these scenes.

Soon, seven gourds grew on the gourd vine, and sounds came out of the gourds.

"Grandpa, Grandpa!"

The little boy was already looking forward to the appearance of the gourd baby.

The scene turned to the cave of the snake spirit and the scorpion spirit, where a group of monsters were having a meal, which was very lively.

However, this scene seemed a little scary to the little boy.

The centipede spirit, the toad spirit, the bat, etc. all looked a little scary.

The snake spirit found the gourd vine with the help of the magic mirror, and was immediately startled, and decided to get rid of the gourd quickly.

They first sent out the wasp monsters, but the arrows shot from the tails of these monsters could not cause any damage to the gourds at all, but were burned to death by the flames sprayed from the gourd of the fire baby.

The little gourds laughed happily.

When the grandfather and the pangolin came back, they found the corpse and the bent arrow on the ground, and they were a little worried.

At night, another monster came.

At night, the gourd was still glowing.

This made the little boy feel very excited, and he stood up excitedly.

Animation with this kind of fantasy element has a natural attraction to children.

In this battle, the little gourds also displayed various abilities, but in the end, the grandfather walked out of the house out of worry and threw a sickle to kill a snake demon.

But he fell into the monster's plan, a big net fell on him, and the grandfather was captured by the monster!

The song of "Calabash Brothers" sounded, and this episode of animation ended.

The little boy immediately showed anxiety.

But there will be no next episode after this episode, and you have to wait until tomorrow to watch it.

In the evening, there were already viewers discussing this animation on the Internet.

"Have you watched Calabash Brothers?"

"I watched it, I watched it with my children, and I didn't expect it to be so good."

"It's quite interesting, but I feel that I have watched a lot of content, but the Calabash Brothers are still hanging on the vine and haven't become Calabash Brothers."

"You say the rhythm is fast, it's also fast, and it seems a bit slow, but it's really good, better than I expected."

On the first day, there was no explosion of good reviews on the Internet.

Many people didn't watch it after seeing the promotional posters because they were not interested. Among the viewers who have watched it, the reputation of the Calabash Brothers is very good.

After the update the next day, some viewers watched it on TV, while others watched it on Xiaolan Station.

Yesterday, everyone complained that there was no Calabash Brothers after two episodes. At the beginning of the third episode, in the thunder and lightning and red rain, the red gourd of the eldest child fell from the gourd vine.

There was a loud bang in the sky, and the eldest child made a brilliant appearance.

Many Calabash Brothers asked the eldest brother to save Grandpa quickly.

The eldest child also showed his ability, with infinite strength and the ability to change size.

On the way to the fairy cave, the eldest child saw that the earth was in ruins and the monsters were causing trouble, and he felt sorry for it.

On the other side, Grandpa had been captured and taken back to the fairy cave.

The snake spirit is a cunning monster, and he pretended to get close to the old man, but the grandfather had seen through the monster's tricks.

The snake demon also has her own ideas. She wants to keep Grandpa, so that the Calabash Brothers can save Grandpa and find out the details of the Calabash Brothers.

The eldest child broke into the cave of the snake demon with his ability.

But facing the cunning snake demon, the eldest child was no match.

In the end, the snake demon used tricks to trap the eldest child in a quagmire and captured the eldest child.

The audience's hearts were immediately tightened again.

In the fourth episode, the second child was born.

The second child's ability is the wind-hearing ear and the thousand-mile eye.

I don't know how many people wanted to have such abilities when they saw this section when they were young.

With the wind-hearing ear and the thousand-mile eye, you are not afraid of the exam.

In the whole Calabash Brothers, the second child is the wise one.

He also sneaked into the cave of the snake demon, trying to deal with the snake demon's Ruyi and the magic mirror.

However, in this duel, the second child finally failed.

The snake demon used a trick to destroy the second child's thousand-mile eye and wind-hearing ear.

In this episode, the snake demon can be said to be the childhood nightmare of many children, and everyone hates the demon even more.

After the two episodes were broadcast, there were more discussions online.

Some bloggers who like to interpret have used their imagination to start associating.

"Look, the ability of the first child is infinite strength. What does the snake demon use to deal with him? It uses the quagmire. No matter how strong you are, you will eventually be stuck in the quagmire and unable to extricate yourself.

The ability of the second child is the super hearing and the clairvoyance. Let the beautiful mini eyes blow your ears with the demon wind. There is something wrong with this animation."

Some bloggers posted their own analysis, and a group of netizens were dumbfounded.

"What are you talking about? Isn't Calabash Brothers an animation?"

"This animation is a serious children's animation, how can you interpret so many things?"

"But what you said makes sense. You are powerful, and there are ways to harm you. You can trap you with things like a quagmire. You can distinguish right from wrong, so let beauty seduce you and let the lewd music corrupt your ears."

"No, buddy, I'm looking for information for the civil service exam, why did I come here?"

The discussion about the plot on the Internet has increased significantly.

Many people were discouraged by the style of painting at first, but they unexpectedly found it very good after watching it.

The rhythm of the plot is not dragged at all. In the third and fourth episodes, a Calabash Brothers was caught by a goblin in each episode. If it were put in other animations, it would take at least several episodes.

By the third day, there were more viewers of Calabash Brothers.

Many people became curious and waited for updates after watching the first four episodes.

At the beginning of the fifth episode, with the help of pangolin, Erwa and Grandpa escaped from the goblin's cave, but pangolin died in the hands of scorpion demon.

The goblin was still chasing Grandpa and Erwa, and at this critical moment, Sanwa came out.

However, Sanwa did not break the gourd, but the gourd dropped the gourd vine first to find Grandpa.

At the critical moment when Grandpa was stopped by the goblin, Sanwa broke the gourd.

In the sixth episode, Sanwa showed his ability of steel and iron bones and beat back all the goblins.

Grandpa hurriedly took Erwa away, and Sanwa stopped the goblin alone.

Although the Internet has been saying that the gourd boy saved Grandpa, in fact, it was not the gourd boy who saved Grandpa from Sanwa.

It's just that Sanwa is more arrogant and underestimates the enemy. He easily broke into the goblin's cave and smashed the magic mirror directly.

But although he was strong, he was tied up by the snake demon with a soft knife in the end.

No matter how strong you are, you are no match for a soft knife. This is the case of using softness to overcome hardness.

This is also the earliest bondage play.

Some netizens on the Internet have begun to interpret it again, and the popularity of "Calabash Brothers" is getting higher and higher.

Everyone also found that although this animation was created from a child's perspective, the things in it are not childish.

In the seventh episode, Fire Baby and Water Baby were also born.

The Calabash Brothers planned to cure Erwa's eyes and ears first, and then talk about the rest.

On the other hand, the snake spirit pulled the alchemy furnace out from under the deep pool, but the flames in the alchemy furnace accidentally came out and burned the entire mountain.

Fire Baby and Water Baby put out the fire, and the snake spirit came up with a plan to invite the two Calabash Brothers to visit the cave.

Water Baby and Fire Baby were caught again by the conspiracy of the snake spirit.

After several days of updates, the reputation of "Calabash Brothers" is getting better and better.

"The Calabash Brothers animation is extraordinary and very interesting."

"These Calabash Brothers look the same except for their different colors, but I can easily tell who is who."

"I thought the plot was simple, but it's quite interesting. Please urge me to update!"

In the next few days, the number of views of Calabash Brothers on Xiaolan Station also rose.

When the goblin took away the gourd vine, the plot changed again, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

The seventh child finally recognized the thief as his father, but was thrown into the alchemy furnace by the goblin.

At the last moment, the old man took out the seven-color lotus and said, "Connecting hearts, connecting hearts, connecting hearts, the Calabash Brothers can work together to eliminate you goblins with it!"

The old man threw the seven-color lotus while laughing.

Seven lotus seeds fell from the lotus and entered the alchemy furnace.

When the alchemy furnace exploded, the scene on the promotional poster appeared.

The classic shape of the seven Calabash Brothers standing on the lotus platform.

The gourd brothers fought against the monsters, but the grandfather was killed by the monsters for the gourd brothers.

At the last moment, the grandfather shouted: "Children, work together to eliminate the monsters!"

The grandfather was kicked off the cliff by the scorpion spirit.

The seven gourd brothers each used their abilities, and finally the seven brothers used the gourd to collect the two monsters into the gourd. The seven gourd brothers combined to form a mountain composed of seven-colored stones, suppressing the monsters under the mountain.

Seeing this, many viewers thought it was over.

However, in the next episode, the content of "Gourd Little King Kong" was directly continued.

New monsters appeared, the green snake spirit and the crocodile leader.

The plots of these two animations can be seamlessly connected, and the audience did not think there was any problem.

The green snake spirit and the crocodile leader began to attack the Seven-Colored Gourd Mountain. The crocodile leader used all kinds of means but could not move the mountain at all.

The green snake spirit said calmly: "Don't mess around, don't mess around. Although the gourd brothers have turned into a mountain, they are tightly connected and as solid as a rock. It is useless to just chop them with an axe. We must first cut off their connection, and then use the method of digging holes and finding gaps to shake the foundation so that we can defeat them one by one and catch them one by one."

After hearing this sentence, the adult audience immediately realized the meaning of it.

Good guy, you are not even using metaphors, you are just saying it directly, right!

At the end of this episode, it stayed at the time when the eldest child was born and was suppressed by the gold ingot.

Gold ingots represent money, and money can settle everything.

After the two episodes tonight were broadcast, "Calabash Brothers" became a hot search.

In the latest episode, the words of the green snake spirit are so meaningful.

Netizens have been promoting it online.

"Watch the gourd brothers and taste the workplace life!"
