It was made entirely by two people: the director and his mother, who is in her 60s. With no professional team and almost no budget, she learned animation as they went and even sang the ending song. After five years of work, the film unexpectedly went viral across Chinese social media. Within just a few days, its box office surpassed 9 million yuan, placing it among the Top 10 domestic animated films of the year. For many viewers, it became more than just a movie—it turned into an internet phenomenon, with audiences laughing, sharing memes and joining the conversation online. #China #ChineseAnimation #NiuLai #Viral #Animation #IndieFilm #ChineseCinema #Movie #FilmTok #InZhejiang | In Zhejiang
