摘　　要：In 2019,Ne Zha:I’m the Destiny won more than 5-billion-yuan box office in Chinese movie market.Although the box office is not the only criterion for judging the quality of an animated movie,Ne Zha breaks a certain stereotype in storytelling,technical means,and the setting of the positive and negative characters.This potentially indicates that in producing an animated film,Chinese artists start to pay more attention to how to refine a movie production,or how to make the story more interesting.One of the attractive elements of this movie is that,Ne Zha has made a breakthrough in creation of a character of Children’s hero,and is totally different from its previous versions:with his joy and sorrow,audiences see the characteristics of Ne Zha as a nice as well as an aggressive boy.This partially because in setting the role of Ne Zha,boundaries between the good and the evil or between beauty and ugly are not so clear in the animation,while it features that Chinese cartoons are set to focus more on authenticity rather than their instructive functions.Additionally,the change of the image of Ne Zha and the subversive characters re-created in the movie have metaphorical significances,featuring how“Chinese school”reconstructs the subjectivity of Chinese stories in contemporary world.
