This is really surprising, because up to now, no one has ever integrated the zombies of Chinese folklore into the game, and the cartoon zombies are not only not terrible at all, but also give people a particularly lovely feeling.

Even for Chinese players, they haven't seen the new elements of "Chinese zombies" for a long time. After all, Hong Kong zombie movies have passed the golden age, and so far there are no new movies produced.

Seeing familiar scenes, familiar and unique zombie shapes, Chinese players are almost all praised. To some extent, there is a special cultural complex. After all, this is our own folklore. Just like the Western zombies and vampires, zombies and vampires can be game elements. Chinese zombies should be able to be, and Makino Technology can realize it That's it.

Familiar and already some strange zombie elements come back again, which makes many netizens rekindle their love for zombie movies. In the disc rental shop on the street, zombie movies are almost all rented out, and all kinds of zombie movies are playing on TV, and the ratings are very high. Even Lin Zhengying, who used to be cold and clear, posted it because of the nostalgic heat, But now it has become a big hit in the Star Post Bar. People's love for zombie movies seems to return to more than ten years ago

When foreign users, i.e. players who use non Chinese language version, update the game, the game has a simple prompt in Huaxia map checkpoint, telling them that the map design comes from the unique architectural style of Huaxia, and the zombie in the game is a kind of Chinese folklore, collectively known as China zombie.

Regardless of the eastern and Western cultures, only in the game "plant vs. zombie online", the modeling design of Chinese zombies is much better than that of the original western zombies. Although the original western zombies are not horrible in visual modeling, they are not cute at all, but at most they make people feel stupid. But the modeling design of Chinese zombies can really brighten the eyes of overseas players Their clothes are very special, and their posture is very special. Their skin color is not gray black of Western zombies, but light yellow. The runes on their foreheads float with the zombies jumping. Overseas players don't understand its use, but they always have a sense of mystery.

For overseas users, on the whole, they will not reject the Chinese elements. On the contrary, these special ethnic designs also bring them a full sense of exotic customs. Most of these people didn't know that there were Chinese zombies before updating the game today, but only a few hours later, people all over the world knew about them The modeling of Chinese zombies and their unique setting of walking and jumping.

The most important thing is that they don't hate this element. On the contrary, they gradually like these very special and interesting images and settings. Even many overseas users openly discuss Chinese zombies on the Internet. They search for and collect all kinds of Chinese zombie legends, and translate them into the Chinese language, so as to popularize them to their own netizens on the Internet platform.

Why do they wear special robes? Because they wear the official clothes of the Chinese and Qing Dynasties, which actually have a lot of attention. Officials from the first grade to the ninth grade have strict requirements on the clothes they wear;

why is there a strange yellow paper on their forehead? That's because there is a profession in Chinese legend that specializes in dealing with such zombies. They are called Taoist priests. This yellow paper is called runzhuan, which is a weapon of them. It has a very special effect. Of course, in this game, it's plants that attack zombies rather than Taoist priests, so the runzhuan may only be a design element;

Why do they walk and jump? This is not the case of zombies in Chinese legends, but because there were many zombie films in Hong Kong in those years. In the setting of Hong Kong films, zombies are all jumping forward, so in China, people's impression of zombies is that they are jumping up and down;

in addition, many people find screenshots of various Hong Kong zombie films and put them on the Internet to feed the net You do science popularization, which further attracts users' curiosity about Chinese zombies. Many people say on the Internet that if you can get one or two Hong Kong zombie movies to watch, it will be great.The whole western world, even Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, have set off a wave of discussion about Chinese zombies because of the revision of "plant vs zombie online".

No one expected that Hong Kong zombie movies did their best to rush out of the Chinese area, and even in Southeast Asia did not bring any repercussions. But "plant vs. zombie online", a popular global game, only took a few hours to send the concept of Chinese zombies to the global players.

This has caused great shock in the Hong Kong film circle. Many investors, directors and actors in the Hong Kong film circle are lamenting that in a few hours, Makino technology has completed the cultural output that Hong Kong films have not been able to achieve in more than ten or twenty years, which is really amazing.

Zombie movies can't go out of Chinese areas for 20 years, which is also a typical phenomenon of global cultural output in recent years. Our people know too much about western culture, but the western people know little about our culture.

In the Chinese world, our three-year-old children all know about western vampires. They know that they have long tusks, they are nocturnal, they live by sucking human blood. They also know that ordinary people will become vampires if they are bitten by vampires.

However, few Westerners know that there is also a kind of zombie in China. They are caused by some special reasons after the death of ordinary people, such as too much resentment in life, or too much yin in the burial place. On the night of full moon and after the corpse changes, the corpse in the coffin will become a jumping zombie. They can't see it, but they have a keen sense of smell, and are afraid of glutinous rice and red Line, afraid of black donkey's hoof and black dog's blood, more afraid of the peach wood sword and the dead body talisman of the zombie Taoist priest.

Our young people have made Valentine's day, Christmas Eve and Christmas a significant festival. They send flowers on Valentine's day, eat apples on Christmas Eve and open houses with their girlfriends on Christmas day. However, the young people in the West even know little about our Spring Festival. As for the traditional festivals such as Tanabata, dragon's day and Mid Autumn Festival, few Westerners know about them;

Thailand Classic love films like Titanic can sweep all over China, making no one in China know about it. But domestic films like farewell my concubine won Cannes awards abroad, but the total box office in the United States is no more than five million dollars.

We know too many western big stars, have seen too many of their films and heard too many of their songs. But the Chinese movie stars that the Western audiences know have real influence. Apart from Li Xiaolong, Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, there is basically no one else.

This is the huge inequality of cultural output. At this point, the United States is like a country with a huge trade surplus, while we are a country with a huge trade deficit, even almost to be regarded as a dumping market by the other side.

It is precisely because of the unequal cultural output throughout the year that the update of "plant vs. zombie online" is of great significance in the eyes of Chinese cultural industry.

Among them, Hong Kong film circle is the most shocked.

8. In the 1990s, a large number of zombie films emerged in Hong Kong, from Lin Zhengying to Hong Jinbao and Wuma. These excellent Hong Kong actors have made great contributions to the prosperity of zombie films.

However, in Hong Kong, where the film industry is booming, zombie type films have suffered from excessive pressure in a short period of time, with all kinds of rotten films running rampant, so that later, audiences in both Hong Kong and Taiwan, as well as in the mainland, have seen enough of this type of films, and the market space has plummeted.

One of the most important reasons is that after Lin Zhengying's death, zombie movies have no real benchmark characters.

Although Hong Jinbao made zombie movies in the early years, he quickly embarked on the path of mainstream movies, and supporting actors such as Wu Ma have a very wide play path in Hong Kong's film industry,

up to now, there are almost no new zombie films in Hong Kong, and this theme is rarely touched in the mainland. Everyone regards zombie films as old semiconductors The radio, which has been thrown into the dustbin or storage room, has put its energy into the more advanced TV and computer. Only a few nostalgic people will occasionally take it out to listen to

the Hong Kong film circle is a peak of the Chinese culture industry. Although it has declined a lot, it did have a very brilliant achievement in that year, so their pattern and vision are relative More internationalized, many people in the film industry have found that the update of "plant vs. zombie online" has caused a lot of repercussions and strong recognition overseas, and they realize that this may be a good opportunity to let Hong Kong zombie film catch the super ride to all over the world!
