Special feature of 1905 film network The animated film is released.After a lapse of 38 years, this film officially met the audience in the cinema for the first time. Perhaps, the saying of "returning a movie ticket" has been redefined in this film.

And this is Shanghai Animation Film Studio (hereinafter referred to as "Shanghai Meiying") behind the film, the second film work handed over this year after Tyrannosaurus Tu Tu with Big Ears in Action in the National Day file.

　

The two seemingly independent works are actually a kind of "inheritance" of the film maker to some extent. Mr. Wang is the co-director of the film "The Story of Heaven". At the same time, he also participated in the art work of the first season of the drama series "Tu Tu with Big Ears".

　

From the "old" to the new, and then renovate and repair the "old". In the past few years, Shanghai Meiying has always presented its "treasures" to everyone in the best form.

　

The charm of Shanghai Meiying is not only on the big screen.As early as last year, the "China Animation Alliance" gathered and customized a promotional film for the Beijing Winter Olympics, saying, "My old grandson is coming!" Who’s feelings have been ignited?

　

When the "Zhu Rong" rover landed on Mars, Shanghai Meiying took out the concept film of the 4D sci-fi cartoon "Fluorescent Fire". After watching it, anyone who didn’t marvel at it was still online.

　

Inheritance of "repair"

The story of Shangmeiying is as wonderful as its cartoon characters, but this time, let’s start with "The Story of Heaven".

　

In 2019, the main visual poster of Shanghai International Film Festival designed by Huang Hai was released, which surprised everyone. And this poster is based on the animated film produced by Shanghai Meiying.

In that year’s screening list, Shanghai Meiying also released two restored works, one is the full version of "Make a scene in Heaven" and the other is the 2K restored version of "The Story of Heaven".After the invoice was issued, "Tian Shu Qi Tan" became one of the fastest sold-out films. This is somewhat unexpected. After all, in the past, most of the animated films mentioned by the audience were "Make a scene in Heaven".

　

Making a scene in Heaven was completed by Shanghai Meiying in 2011. It is precisely because of this achievement that Shanghai Meiying saw hope that "classics will never go out of date". As a result, in 2018, Shanghai Meiying restarted the restoration work of "Tian Shu Qi Tan".

　

This repair work is not easy.Because of the limitation of early technical conditions, the storage medium of the original film is film. The film itself is very fragile, even if it is well preserved, it will inevitably cause some damage. The director of Shanghai Meiying told us that the team invested a lot of manpower and energy to repair the sound and picture.

　

Behind the simple expression, there is actually a very complicated process technology. In the end, the basic restoration of the film was completed by Shanghai Film Technology Factory and Shanghai Meiying, which ensured the basic content of the work and realized the work of "glue revolution". It is reported that the film has been repaired in the 4K version. This also caused the film to finally meet the audience after two years after the screening of the last film festival.

　

For many viewers, this is a "youth return". Memories of the movies I saw when I was a child are all emerging one by one, and even the "sequel legend" about this movie is not broken.

　

For Suda, the release of this film has not only fulfilled his dream, but also completed the unfinished story of the predecessors of Shanghai Meiying.

Mr Yunda Qian, the co-director of this film, is her university teacher. At the Shanghai premiere of the film, the 93-year-old director Yunda Qian appeared. Facing the recognition of the audience, he also said humbly, "I feel that we have not done enough. If we can do it in the future, we will do more work."

　

However, what is the release of such a film to the audience?Suda doesn’t want to emphasize the box office. After all, the release of this animated work is difficult to demonstrate with the box office itself. "Going to the cinema is not just about paying for feelings."

In Suda’s view, this restoration can make the audience feel better about "The Wonder of Heaven" and break the previous cognition on the small screen. No matter the sound or the picture, more different details can be found.

　

The vitality of IP

Suda has been busy for the last two months. I was interviewed by various media for Action of Tyrannosaurus Tu Tu with Big Ears and 4K Commemorative Edition.

　

Although these two works are presented to the audience with a brand-new look, we can’t ignore the fact that it has been 38 years since "The Story of Heaven" and the drama series "Tu Tu with Big Ears" has been updated, but it has been more than 15 years since the first season. It seems that from the outside world, these two works are already "past tense".

　

Suda seems to have become accustomed to these discussions, and bluntly saying that economic benefits are definitely not the purpose. "I understand that everyone has such a voice, because in the past, we did not produce a large number of new films, and we also understand the expectations of the audience."

In fact, the restoration of "The Wonder of Heaven" is to use digital technology to make the film glow with new vitality.

　

On the basis of the original film’s 89 minutes, a special behind-the-scenes feature was specially added at the end of the film, including some creative materials, restoration process and interviews with old artists. This is a tribute to the older generation of animation artists, but also a kind of China animation inheritance.

　

At that time, there were many ingenious ideas of old artists in the creation of the film "The Wonder of Heaven", but now it seems a little clumsy.

　

For example, in the four words of the title, the blue-black background pattern presents a "special effect" of flowing fusion. It is the old artists who pour blue-black paint into a basin and add solvent to make the paint "flow", thus shooting this wonderful "special effect" scene.

　

The TV animation "Tu Tu with Big Ears" with more than 100 episodes grew up with the post-90s and post-00s, and it was created by Shanghai Meiying for the purpose of making original and high-quality cartoons to reflect the life of contemporary children.The image of "Tu Tu" unexpectedly became popular on the short video platform two years ago, which made everyone see the vitality of IP.

From the small screen to the big screen, the movie version of Tu Tu with Big Ears has been striving to integrate the spirit of the times into its works and track the topics of social concern. It involves filial piety culture and pension topics.

　

It seems to be a mature drama IP, but this creation is not easy for Suda. In this movie, there is no collision between justice and evil, just want children to watch it with relish and touch them with emotion.

　

It doesn’t matter if you have doubts, it also represents the expectations of the audience.For these IPS in their hands, Suda said, "The old IP, because it was already there, we will repair it and develop it, and maybe it will take less time; Then the new work needs a process of incubation, cultivation and creation. "

　

As for the excessive public opinion of "fried cold rice", the speed is also accepted according to the order. The hard work behind the classic repair is no easier than an original IP. Classic IP needs to maintain its vigorous vitality, which can not be presented by simple preservation. "We are not completely copying the past to sell tickets again, but to create in depth again."

　

Not only the restoration of movies, but also the IP image authorization of Shanghai Meiying from a very early age.Especially at the beginning of 2019, the collection of doll toys, in which "Tian Shu Qi Tan" cooperated with a fast food brand, even sold as high as 500 yuan on a second-hand trading platform.

　

This series of IP authorization, actually from another level, is also the activation of IP.Of course, in terms of IP authorization, Shangmeiying pays great attention to whether the cartoon image is suitable for the brand. "Every IP has its own personal design, and we also value the concept of communication that can be set by someone in the future brand communication."

　

The story continues

"Innovation and inheritance" is the brand concept written by official website of Shanghai Meiying.

　

Reasonable IP authorization and development, as well as the restoration of classic films, are the best footnotes made by Shanghai Film and Television. To combine "inheritance" and "innovation" organically, we have to mention Meiying’s ink animation.

　

As early as the 60th anniversary of Shanghai Film Festival, it was announced that it would restart ink animation and launch the first feature film of ink animation. At that time, the official also released a 2-minute trial film, which attracted a lot of attention once it was spread.

　

After a lapse of four years, what is the progress of this project?Suda told us that the film is scheduled to be completed by the end of next year and is scheduled to be released in 2023. The duration of the film will be about 90 minutes, with almost no dialogue, and the story will be promoted by music. "It can be said with great pride that this will be the first animated feature film in China and even the world."

　

The 3D version of the official announcement has also made progress. "We will make a bold attempt to break everyone’s previous understanding of the image of the Monkey King in" Big Sky "and make a brand new the Monkey King in a three-dimensional space, which will be more in line with the aesthetics of young people as a whole."

　

In addition, the new Snow Child, which was created by directors Lu Hengyu and Li Shujie, will also be produced accordingly. In the future production process of Shanghai Meiying, there will be more than a dozen works coming out one after another.

In the face of marketization, Suda said frankly, "Not blindly pursuing the click-through rate and the box office, how to make a good work that can stay is the first thing that our creators should consider, and don’t produce a pile of cultural garbage."

　

With the special promotional film of the Winter Olympics going off again, the outside world is increasingly looking forward to the progress of the "cartoon universe" of the American film. At the beginning of this year, they launched the drama "Beautiful Film Paradise", but this short drama did not leave much sound. Su Da told us not to worry. They really saw the concept of "movie universe" and are creating an animated film "Make a scene in cartoon city", which combines the IP of Shangmeiying with real life.

　

No matter from the outside world, Shanghai Meiying is slowing down or speeding up now; Is it being questioned "fried cold rice" or insisting on bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new? They are always carrying on the good memories of several generations with a pen.

　

As Suda said, Shanghai Meiying is the national team of animation in China, which shoulders great responsibilities. It cannot just pursue commercial animation, and it is one of the responsibilities to inherit and innovate the art of its predecessors.

　　When Wang Hai, a tall man, appeared in front of Chengdu Business Daily reporters, he would not attract much attention. He didn’t wear his trademark sunglasses, the personal logo that has been with him in his anti-counterfeiting career for the past 21 years. But when it comes to taking pictures, the black sunglasses appear on his face in a blink of an eye.

　　The man who used to wear the hat of "fake hero" is now 43 years old. With the promulgation of the new Consumer Protection Law and the improvement of a series of relevant laws and regulations, it is easier for consumers to protect their rights. Today’s Wang Hai seems to be inferior to the "fake idol" who has been shouting and fighting all the time. With only 100,000 fans in Weibo, he is not even "online celebrity", although his personal introduction is still "the first person to fight counterfeiting".

　　However, with the emergence of more and more professional counterfeiters, consumer rights protection has entered a normalization, and Wang Hai is only one of many professional counterfeiters.

　　When online shopping has become an important way of consumption, professional counterfeiters have begun to specialize in e-commerce. Liu Yanqing sued more than 30 cases in half a month, all of which were related to online shopping. He said that after he picked out the thorns, the operators would definitely improve, which was a thunder for future consumers.

　　Professional counterfeiters have gone through 21 years from barbaric growth to rational rights protection. Nowadays, they prefer to be called builders. "Promote the improvement of relevant laws and claim compensation within the legal bottom line."

　　Wang hai

　　"My personal pursuit is to be a builder"

　　"This year, I don’t rule out playing net red and playing Wechat business."

　　Wang Hai, who owns four business investigation companies, currently has more than 30 employees, mostly lawyers and investigation managers. Last year, more than 500 cases were handled, with an amount of more than 10 million. The company is mainly engaged in three kinds of businesses to help consumers defend their rights and fight counterfeiting; Knowing and buying fakes; Employed by enterprises, counterfeiting for enterprises. The third is the focus of his business.

　　Compared with before, Wang Hai’s exposure has decreased, but his cooperation with government departments has increased, more than 400 times a year. He has become more gentle, not always "pinching". In his own words, it is called "rational blood".

　　"My personal pursuit is to be a builder. Solve the problem constructively. " What Wang Hai hasn’t changed is the clarity of thinking and the endless desire to express. He said that he expected to promote consumers’ awareness of rights protection and the integrity of China people, so as to advance the law.

　　Nowadays, compared with the endless stream of "online celebrity", Wang Hai is not a name with internet popularity anytime and anywhere. He sent a Weibo, and there were often only a few or dozens of comments and reposts. "There is no deliberate management, and I don’t want to be too conspicuous. Being online celebrity is not the goal."

　　Wang Hai is dismissive of today’s "online celebrity economy". He mentioned that many online celebrity stores sell all kinds of cosmetics and clothing, but many of them are refurbished by stalls, and there are quite a few inferior products. "This year, we will not rule out playing online red and playing Wechat business."

　　What Wang Hai is pondering now is how to promote the establishment of the Whistleblower Act (whistleblower sharing fines) in China. He said that he had previously reported Nike, and the maximum bonus given by the government department was 100,000 yuan. And if the Whistleblower Act can be established, 30% to 50% of the fines imposed on enterprises will be distributed to whistleblowers, which will give every insider, even corporate executives, the incentive to become a voluntary supervisor.

　　Another goal of Wang Hai is to promote consumer organizations that can play games. He gave this organization, which is still spinning in his mind, a grounded name "Children’s Mothers Association". Wang Hai said that the "Children’s Mothers Association" can set up a laboratory to test all kinds of goods at any time; Detectives can be sent to investigate the production of each enterprise and test reports can be issued. The price violence of foreign milk powder will not happen, and it can also fight against the format contract with overlord clause. "If the child’s mother is associated with 1 million people, pricing consumers can participate."

　　Liu Yanqing

　　From shopping malls to online shopping.

　　You can easily take screenshots to collect evidence without leaving home.

　　Liu Yanqing, who has 15 years of experience in counterfeiting, is a native of Beijing. His office is hidden in a two-bedroom apartment in an old residential area near the Apple Orchard in Beijing. His company has only five or six employees at present. The main business, of course, is counterfeiting. Last year, after deducting employee salaries and various costs, Liu Yanqing’s net income from counterfeiting was around 800,000.

　　"85% of my cases now are e-commerce counterfeiting." Liu Yanqing, who once beat more than 50 large shopping malls in Beijing at least once, is now dying with e-commerce companies more often. The first e-commerce anti-counterfeiting took place in 2013. He bought cosmetics of a well-known brand for 4,000 yuan online and sent them to the headquarters of the brand in China for testing, and came to the conclusion that the outer packaging did not match the genuine product. Finally, under the mediation of the court, after six months, he got 4000 yuan compensation.

　　Study various judicial interpretations

　　According to Liu Yanqing’s cost performance ratio, the first experience of "online counterfeiting" was not a "good business" during his counterfeiting career. But this stubborn Beijing man feels that the other party’s attitude of downplaying only "regulatory mistakes" has hurt himself. He began to switch from shopping malls to online shopping.

　　In the past more than half a month, Liu Yanqing has claimed more than 30 cases from various e-commerce websites. Liu Yanqing has her own understanding of the reason why she moved from a physical store to an e-commerce. He said that although online shopping is more difficult than physical stores, for example, it can’t communicate directly with the supervisor, but it can only communicate by phone, and it is easy to be refused compensation. However, compared with physical stores, online shopping can crack down on fakes without leaving home, and it is easy to obtain evidence and screen shots. The evidence of screen shots is notarized and preserved, which is very convincing in evidence and the proportion of successful claims will be higher.

　　Liu Yanqing, who just graduated from junior high school, studied laws including the Consumer Protection Law and various related judicial interpretations of the Supreme Court. In order to crack down on jewelry, he specially studied jewelry appraisal and was familiar with relevant industry standards. This made him practice a pair of critical eyes, and when he searched online, he knew which goods had false propaganda or other certain problems even in the description.

　　On February 26th, Liu Yanqing bought a bracelet marked "Baltic amber beeswax" in JD.COM shopping mall, and the price was 1799 yuan, while the original price was 17990 yuan, equivalent to 10% discount. It took only four days for Liu Yanqing to buy the goods, file a claim, return the goods, return the payment, and get the compensation of 2500 yuan.

　　Liu Yanqing took out a set of national standards for jewelry and the notice of the National Development and Reform Commission on the interpretation of the relevant provisions of the Provisions on Prohibiting Price Fraud. These two documents are the basis for his quick claim. He said that on the online shopping page of this bracelet, the place of origin is obviously the mainland, but the name is marked with the Baltic Sea, which is suspected of falsely marking the place of origin. This bracelet was put on the shelves on February 24, and the original price was marked with more than 10,000 yuan. There must be a transaction record of the original price sales, otherwise it is a virtual standard price.

　　I used to watch Wang Hai fake on TV.

　　Because of the revision of the Civil Procedure Law in 2014, it is stipulated that online shopping disputes can be prosecuted in the court where the goods are received, which makes Liu Yanqing’s e-commerce anti-counterfeiting cause more good news. He laughed and said that he could sue the e-commerce operators who he thought had problems all over the country in the Shijingshan court at his doorstep.

　　Liu Yanqing’s e-commerce anti-counterfeiting process has been completely streamlined. He will give employees standardized training in food, clothing, jewelry and other commodities in advance, and then let employees find out the products that describe problems, and then he will screen them himself and place an order after confirming that they are correct. "A dozen are accurate."

　　However, the name Liu Yanqing is not a popular name for many online shopping platforms. His Amazon account was cancelled for "violating online trading rules". Or, the operator will tell him that the goods are out of stock and let him choose to return them. "I entered the blacklist of e-commerce, but it doesn’t matter. I can also register many other accounts. There are more than a dozen."

　　Liu Yanqing, who has driven a taxi, opened a canteen and sold mutton kebabs, once watched Wang Hai’s counterfeiting on TV. After stepping into the business of professional counterfeiters, I found that this industry with a little personal heroism brought him unprecedented self-confidence.

　　He was once "threatened" by the store to report his extortion. But Liu Yanqing, who is a little "mixed", responded like this: "If I knock, I knock internally according to the law, and I don’t do it if I don’t do it."

　　Feng zhibo

　　"Almost all the claims were won last year."

　　"I hope that fakes can be bought less and less."

　　Feng Zhibo, a Wuhan native who started counterfeiting in 1997, now lives in Guangzhou. He has two identities, one is a professional counterfeiter and the other is a clothing operator. He said that it is precisely because he is counterfeiting and knows the cost of illegal business that he will be more cautious when doing clothing business.

　　In 2013, there was a provision in the Supreme Law on several issues concerning the application of law in the trial of food and drug disputes. If there was a dispute over the quality of food and drugs, the buyer claimed the rights from the producers and sellers, and the producers and sellers made a defense on the grounds that the buyer knew that there were quality problems in the food and drugs but still bought them, the people’s court would not support it. This means that even if you buy a fake knowing it, it will not affect the claim.

　　Last year, Feng Zhibo focused on food counterfeiting. For a whole year, he has been arguing with ordinary food with cod liver oil, suing for compensation, and probably got millions of compensation. "Professionals buy problematic goods, so less will be left in the hands of consumers. From this perspective, it is good for the market. I hope that fakes can be bought less and less."

　　Last year, Feng Zhibo, who likes to be more serious, won almost all the claims. The only case that lost in the first instance was changed in the second instance, and Feng Zhibo, who got the verdict, was somewhat gratified, which meant his 100% winning rate. He believes that this is a more perfect law to protect his legitimate rights and interests.

　　Say/method

　　A professional counterfeiter in the eyes of a lawyer;

　　Counterfeiting is conducive to market regulation.

　　Qiu Baochang, head of the lawyers’ group of China Consumers Association, told Chengdu Business Daily that personally, professional counterfeiters should not kidnap them with morality as long as they have not violated the law. The existence of professional counterfeiters is beneficial to market purification, to the interests of consumers, to the protection of legitimate enterprises and to market regulation.

The annual San Diego Comic Con is just around the corner.

Special feature of 1905 film network　 The annual San Diego Comic Con is coming again! This year’s comic-con is still full of stars, crouching tiger, hidden dragon, famous directors such as Spielberg, and superheroes such as Justice League, Raytheon and Panther are also gearing up. Game of Thrones, which has been on the altar all the year round, can’t be underestimated as well as rising star westworld. For a time, the eyes of fans all over the world turned to this beautiful coastal city.

Speaking of the impressive activities of Comic-Con, what Xiaobian first thought of was the one that surprised fans in 2013.

On July 20th, 2013, Hall H of the San Diego Convention and Exhibition Center (the main venue of the comic exhibition) was packed. The staff introduced the post-production to the fans, but the scene suddenly went into darkness and the microphone suddenly lost its sound. This scene made people think that there was an accident.

Suddenly, a thunderous voice resounded through the hall: "Man, look at how low you have fallen!"? Gathered in the dark, like wild animals! " After saying his word, a "lightning" threw a cold white light out of thin air. "Shake Sen" Tom Hiddleston stood proudly on the stage in the gorgeous armor of the evil god Loki, scanning the audience coldly, and the excited screams of the fans almost overturned the roof.

"Shake the Sen" into the play

Later, "Shake the Sen" continued to set a good example, giving people the illusion of watching Shakespeare’s stage plays.From Asgard, the fairy palace, the proud little public performance sometimes called on the audience: "Call my name and be loyal to me!" " Sometimes put your index finger on your lips to signal that everyone is quiet, control the rhythm strongly, and the gas field is breathtaking.

"Shake the Sen" gas field is breathtaking.

In this way, Loki "swept" Hall H with lightning speed/storm. Although "Shake Sen" is very attractive, the glittering logo behind him is equally eye-catching. Non-fans and fans can’t help asking: What kind of grand event is San Diego Comic Con? (Xiaobian won’t tell you, this is the real wonderful conference 23333)

Although San Diego Comic-Con always comes as scheduled, not everyone knows its ins and outs.Let’s review its "past lives" together ~

　

Origin & Things You May Not Know

　

"International Comic-Con: San Diego", referred to as SDCC, usually lasts for 4 days (Thursday to Sunday) and is held in summer.San Diego is located in the southwest corner of California, USA.Known for its warm climate and numerous beaches, it is known as the "best city in America" and the economic center of the San Diego-Tijuana metropolitan area.The current comic-con event has become a diversified comprehensive event, the scope is not limited to comics, and works from different fields have entered one after another, and the publicity and promotion conferences of all parties are fierce, but it was not the case at first.

"Quanyou" is a creative exhibition.

　

The first San Diego Comic-Con was held in 1970, when it was founded by a group of comic fans such as Schell Doff and Richard Alf. Schell Doff initiated the Detroit Comic-Con in the 1960s (one of the first veterans of comic-Con). He moved to San Diego in the 1970s and prepared a one-day mini-exhibition on March 21st, hoping to take this opportunity to organize large-scale exhibitions in the future. Perhaps he never thought that San Diego Comic Con would become the focus of the world in the future.

9 comic book fun tips

　

1. After the initial mini-exhibition, the first San Diego Comic-Con, which lasted for three days from August 1 to August 3, 1970, attracted 300 people (another 100 people were written by foreign media). Although it seems sparsely populated now, considering the cultural environment at that time, this figure has demonstrated the attraction of Comic-Con to the public.

The El Coste Hotel, one of the local landmarks, was once the main venue for the exhibition.

　

2. Comic-Con once set up the University of California, San Diego, San Diego Golden Hall, El Coste Hotel, etc. As the venue, in 1991, the main venue was moved to the San Diego Convention and Exhibition Center. In recent years, libraries, theaters, children’s parks, etc. will also undertake some activities.

The San Diego Convention and Exhibition Center is integrated with the beautiful scenery, and the dome has a sense of design.

3. The full name of Comic Con — — The name "International Comic-Con: San Diego" was first formed in 1995. Before that, the Title of Comic-Con was changed several times. In 1970, it was called "Golden State Comic-Con", in 1972 it was called San Diego West Coast Comic-Con, and in 1973 it was a concise San Diego Comic-Con.　Every year, there will be a preview field the day before the official opening (Wednesday night) to provide participants with an "exhibition catalogue", which is actually to let them know about the main activities, exhibitors and guests. The preview activity is only open for 3 hours (6 -9 pm), so this night is also called "warm-up night".

The first San Diego Comic Con was actually called "Golden State Comic Con"

San Diego West Coast Comic Con, a former name, is also cool.

　

4. Los Angeles is close to San Diego. Guess what the Hollywood team first entered the San Diego Comic Con to promote? Of course, the American people are obsessed with it now! Charles Liebencott, the director of the film’s announcement, put slides on the stage, but the scene was deserted, and only a handful of people participated in the exhibition, in sharp contrast to today’s sea of people.

Hollywood actually came to comic exhibition as early as the 1970s.

Hollywood film giants are in Los Angeles (marked in purple), which is close to San Diego (marked in red).

5. The last day of San Diego Comic-Con is "Children’s Day". In addition to film-related publicity, there are also some activities open to families. Children aged 12 and under can enter for free (provided that parents need to buy tickets).

The children are very engaged in playing.

6. In 2015, the number of exhibitors in San Diego Comic-Con reached an astonishing 160,000! In 45 years, the influence of comic exhibition is not the same as that of that year.

Every comic season, San Diego is crowded.

　

7. Every year, San Diego Comic-Con will hold a "masquerade ball", and encourage exhibitors who are creative and outstanding in costume matching to show themselves boldly. The winner of the "masquerade ball" will win 1000 dollars and a commemorative medal. In 2015, a group with the theme of "haunted house" stood out.

They swept the San Diego Comic-Con masquerade in 2015 and won many awards.

　

8. The "masquerade ball" is not the only place where you can play Cosplay. Fans in the exhibition hall usually take the route of "evil spirit madness" and dress up as their favorite characters.

The fans had a great time in the comic exhibition.

The Big Bang TheoryThe otaku in the movie once incarnated as "Justice League", and Pan Xiaohua looked unhappy.

　

9. When you open the San Diego Comic-Con official website, you can often see a cute toucan. Designer Rick Gilley originally thought of using this strange and precious large bird as the signboard of the exhibition, but according to him, he just wanted to paint animals dressed as human beings, and then the toucan became a symbol of the exhibition. According to official website, this bird retired gloriously in 1995, but until today, its sense of existence is still very strong.

This cute little bird often appears in official website today.
