DING Jiazhen
Abstract：Nezha Conquers the Dragon King marks a peak in Chinese animation. Everything from its plot design to its overall audiovisual presentation is outstanding. A closer examination suggests that this success can be traced to the “affective intensity” of its narrative mechanism. The “core” of this burning is that the film itself contains rich and diverse cultural motives of “nationality”. Therefore, it is undoubtedly of great significance to explore the text connotation of the film. This paper intends to discuss the film from the aspects of the development of national cultural symbols and spirit, the contradictory turning point of narrative and “satisfaction of substitution” and its realistic metaphor, aiming at providing some reference for more creation of domestic animated films in the future and the construction of related theories.
Key words：Ethnic cultural symbols; National spirit; Contradictory turning point; metaphor
