    I don't think it's just that American comics haven't become popular in China, but Chinese comics aren't particularly good in China.

    First of all, the reason why American comics are not popular is because there is a big difference between the culture of the United States and China.

    My lord?

    It's not realistic, people are busy in this materialistic era and are busy for money.

    Child?

    It's also unrealistic, not to mention whether today's children can accept those old American values or something, just talk about the content in American comics, when it comes to American comics, everyone often thinks of Marvel!

    Yes, even those adults who haven't read American comics know that American comics probably refer to those things! And they haven't read American cartoons though. But I've probably seen American movies more or less.

    Then here's the problem! The plot in the movie, especially the Marvel of the United States! Most of them are beautiful women with heroes, which is the general standard.

    Speaking of beautiful women, there is probably something to say. I won't describe how many of those beauties are. And some heroes are not one person with a beauty, there are many!

    There is also the fact that there is a lot of gore in it.

    Can a child see it? Make up your own brains. Although these things don't seem like a big deal to adults!

    But what if your own children are clamoring to see it?

    So when adults buy it, they usually say, this child can't watch it! They don't spend a lot of time looking at the comics that are not suitable for children.

    Besides, now, the TV network is developing so fast, children still want to read those comic books?

    Every day, there are not enough brushes to be happy, and bears are infested.

    …Isn't that enough?

    So it's unlikely that American comics will become popular in China, but American anime is good!

    After all, it's a movie or something, and American movies are for all ages.

    China's golden mean contradicts the individual heroism of the United States, and in the eyes of Chinese, it is very nonsense for one person to save the world.

    The cultural differences and aesthetics of the East and the West are different. The cultural differences between the East and the West have led to huge differences between Japanese manga and American manga in the choice of subject matter and content. American comics are a typical "Hollywood-style" theme.

    They're basically not superheroes who simply save the world, nor are they sci-fi robots, alien wars, or classic Western magical adventures. They are too self-centered and have little theme. At the same time, the content of American comics will be integrated with many American social backgrounds, cultural content, and values.

    They want to be a tool for exporting American culture, but they don't think that some of these things are unacceptable to our Eastern culture.

    After the Japanese animation industry was slowly determined at the end of the period, it gradually began to form a complete industrial chain. The author draws cartoons and publishes them in magazines. Popular animations will be produced into cartoons by animation companies and TV stations**.

    Toy companies will also buy them, and the rights will be made into merchandise. They will then be exported all over the world, bringing a lot of economic income to Japan. Therefore, Japan attaches great importance to the Japanese animation industry.

    The animation industry has been included in the emerging industry development strategy formulated by Japan, and has become a key industry supported by Japan.

    Although American comics are all in color, their rough lines, exaggerated and strong drawing style will not only be difficult for readers who have always been accustomed to delicate and soft to accept, but also lead to aesthetic fatigue. After all, almost all American comics have the same drawing style. However, Japanese manga is heavily influenced by traditional Chinese culture.

    Although they are predominantly black and white, as is the case with Chinese ink paintings, they pay great attention to detail and will change their painting style depending on the subject. For example, the works of the womb will be more exaggerated, the works of Xiang Girl will be more aesthetic, the works of blood will be more realistic, and the drawing style of Japanese manga will be more popular, not only because of its intimacy, but also because of its variability to the reader.

    I think the main reason is that American comics depict some fight scenes, and they appreciate the aesthetics of violence very much, which is reflected in many comics, and our country is very peace-oriented, and such comics will have a lot of positive and negative effects on teenagers, so American comics are not as popular as Japanese comics in China.

    The style of American comics is very strange, and the characters of the later characters are also very weird, and the characters in Chinese and Japanese comics are more in line with our aesthetics.

    Because Japan has spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources on animation, comics have become a relatively important industry in Japan, so Japanese comics are more popular in China.

    Because of the variety of Japanese manga, basically everyone can get the plot they want to see. Moreover, Japanese manga survive harshly, and once the popularity of the work declines, there is a risk of being cut in half, so the storyline will be extremely interesting.

    Because American comics are regional, it is generally very difficult to get out of Europe.

    The United States has long been like Superman in 1938 and Batman in 1939. Both were quite popular at the time and to this day. Not to mention superhero comics such as X-Man, Spider-Man, etc., which became famous all over the world.

    Japanese manga basically started after World War II.,Although there was a manga association before World War II.,There are mature works.,But there are still no popular works.,Manga was in a period of decline during World War II.。 After World War II, the Japanese manga industry regained its vitality. In 1954, the monthly shoujo manga magazine "Nakayoshi" was launched.

    In 1959, the first weekly manga magazines "Weekly Shonen Sunday" and "Weekly Shonen Magazine" were launched. In 1968, "Weekly Shonen Jump" was launched. A representative work that influenced the history of modern Japanese manga in the early post-war period is Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy.

    Since the 1950s, more and more Japanese manga artists have been inspired by the works of Osamu Tezuka. In the 1960s, the works of Shotaro Ishimori, Fujio Akatsuka, and Fujiko Fujio were very popular. With the rapid development of television, popular manga began to be brought to the screen, and the era of animation began in Japan.

    After the 1990s, the genre of manga was further expanded, the number of manga magazines grew rapidly, and cultures such as webtoons also came into being.

    1 All Marxist philosophy holds that it is necessary to use a dialectical viewpoint to look at problems.

    Therefore, the evaluation of advantages and disadvantages should be considered from different aspects, combined with different backgrounds and conditions, and different objects.

    Personally, I think that many domestic animations are aimed at children under the age of 7, and for them, this kind of animation is easy to understand and funny, which is in line with the characteristics of their age. And American animation has a lot for teenagers and even social people, so if you let a person in his 20s watch Chinese animation, it will feel naïve and boring.

    For animation content,Since the country is oriented to children,And by the country's requirements to promote the great development and prosperity of socialist culture,Its content is narrow,The content of the previous kind of knives and guns is rarely seen in the current animation,Mostly in the form of edutainment。 The thousand-year-old culture of the Chinese nation is also often reflected in animation works, and this influence has both advantages and disadvantages.

    In terms of overall, limited by technology, ideology, creativity, production costs, sales, etc., the overall production strength of Chinese animation is weaker than that of the United States.

    In fact, Chinese animation is not bad, and the production technology is not backward, the key is to pass the review and approval, the approval is the first level, and the animation content must be positive to pass the test, for example, the rainbow cat and blue rabbit were banned because the scene was too bloody, so there is a domestic cartoon "Uncle Lei Feng by Our Side" that cost tens of millions of dollars was approved. The content is positive, what fights, kills, spoofs and the like don't think about approval, Chinese mainly like comedy funny, foreigners like action humor.

    The comic style of the two countries is very different, so there is no question of who is worse than whom, it depends on which style the individual likes to read.

    However, Japan, the United States, and South Korea are not only recognized as anime powerhouses, but also manga powerhouses.

    The animation of the Chinese toddler layer is bound to be not good-looking, but the works of some new artists and emerging animation companies are still good. For example, Kuiba has been hot lately, the quality is good, and there are many others on the Internet that are okay. American anime is richer than Chinese anime in terms of plot, and in terms of painting style, I think the painting style of Chinese anime is more acceptable to us.

    The American painting style is too realistic, like Walking Dead and Man in Black, although it is very good-looking, I always feel that the painting style is a little difficult to accept. China is now supporting the animation industry, and there may be some gaps between China and the United States in terms of production and quality, but I think these gaps can be narrowed in the short term. In addition, there are more fresh blood in China now, and domestic production is closer to our culture and has an innate advantage, so I think Chinese animation is no worse than that of the United States.

    Finally, I don't think that Pleasant Goat should be classified as an anime, at least not yet.

    In general, American animation will be relatively novel in creation, giving people a strong visual impact and making people feel refreshing, while most of China's animation is based on history or mythology, and it stands out in China's animation industry, but it is said that Xiyangyang's copyright was acquired by a foreign company, and I don't know if there is such a thing.

    There are several main reasons.

    First, Japanese and American comics account for a large proportion of the world manga market. Whether it is the output or the market, it can account for half. Manga from other countries is much weaker than in Japan and the United States.

    Second, both Japan and the United States have set up copyright dealers in China, and they have taken the initiative to promote their works in China. In other countries, there are no such dealers to promote in China, some only have ** merchants, and some have no copyright transactions at all.

    Third, Chinese readers mostly learn about foreign comics through informational channels, while consulting magazines usually only move around Japan, the United States, France, and Malaysia, so informational channels promote comics from other countries much less.

    Fourth, the distinction between domestic and foreign comics is very vague, usually the picture is more abstract even if it is "Japanese comics", and the more realistic pictures are considered "American comics", so the so-called Japanese comics you see often include comics from other countries. For example, Korean, Russian, and Thai comics are often called "Japanese comics", while French, Canadian, Italian, and Spanish comics are often called "American comics".

    As for the problem of comics in other countries, of course, other countries have them, but they are weaker. As far as I can remember, the general division of the world comic market is roughly like this:

    First-class: Japan, the United States, France (including Belgium).

    Second-rate: Malaysia, Russia, South Korea, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom.

    Third-rate: China, India, Thailand, Iran, Syria, Czech Republic, Spain, Italy, Canada.

    South Korea has it too. Like an unlucky bear or something.

    The anime of the main family did not enter China. Don't think about it. Nowadays there are several foreign anime on TV. It's been a few years and it's still a few old anime.

    You have to think about it too. There is no anime in foreign countries. A child's childhood loses half of its joy.

    Europe's propaganda efforts are not strong enough, the aesthetic concept is different, it feels like it is for children, and there is no market here.

    1, it should be said that Chinese comics are not as popular as Japanese comics In fact, there are a lot of good-looking comics in China It's just that the publicity is not good Japanese animation has a new animation every month A new one is a world-class publicity market China does not have it This also needs to be driven by a certain person 2, Japanese animation is well-made China does not seem to be that level The probability of making a popular Japanese comic into animation is high The genre is also big and small and the animation is updated one episode a week Natural comics have a market China makes animated comics Most of them are animations watched by children, and children can have a lot of money to chase comics, even if they can understand it, b 3, Japan's animation industry is developed, it can be said that the animation industry is Japan's main economy**, although China's animation has been gradually rising in recent years, but compared with Japan, there is still a lot of room for improvement 4, Japan can monopolize the peak of the animation industry for so many years, which also shows that they have a great leadership role in the education industry In the minds of the older generation of China, painting is very expensive and unstable This also needs the support of the relevant departments above, and there may be some people who can't think of it for a while.

China currently has nearly $2 trillion in foreign exchange reserves, 80 percent of which are in dollars, 60 percent of which are U.S. Treasury bonds. China's holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds account for about 10% of its issuance, and if China makes a move, the world will be watching. It doesn't matter if you buy it, if you sell it, it will cause panic selling, and if the bonds in China's hands are not taken off, it will be substantial, and the US Treasury bonds in China's foreign exchange reserves will suffer painful losses, which is equivalent to not getting along with yourself. >>>More
