Each of the names here are familiar in the history of Chinese animation films. They participated in the production of "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King" "Little Heroes" "Lotus Lamp" and so on is the eternal memory of a generation. But 20 years ago they still had an identity, an identity that was part of the epic drama that changed the history of Chinese animation; This identity makes the history of Chinese animation education have a more intense and heavy color; This identity spans more than 2,000 kilometers and tells of a profound friendship between mountains and seas. This identity is -- Jilin Animation Institute teacher!

The school leaders who visited the animation masters in Shanghai were: Zheng Liguo, Chairman and President of Jilin Animation Institute, Liu Xin, Vice Chairman, Luo Jianglin, Wang Chunli and Wang Xiaoyan, Vice Presidents of JAI.

Zheng Liguo said, looking back to the beginning of JAI business, is the experts away from the bustling metropolis of Shanghai, came to Changchun, they have worked hard, overcome the regional cultural differences, in the school at the beginning of the construction of teachers, professional curriculum, artistic creation and other aspects of all-round, multidimensional guidance. These experts have played a key leading role in the development of the school, and has devoted great efforts and made important contributions to the development of China's animation education and animation industry. All this comes from the love for the Chinese animation industry and the trust in Jilin Animation Institute.

Liu Xin recalled that it is with the love for the Chinese animation industry and the trust for the development prospects of Jilin Animation Institute! Chang Guangxi, the former Director of Shanghai Art Film Studio, an influential animation expert at home and abroad, retired and did not retire from his post, hiking more than 2,000 kilometers resolutely came to Changchun and came to JAI. A 60-year-old old man who had the time to enjoy his old age, but crouched at his desk to write lesson plans, taught animation knowledge on a three-foot platform, and devoted himself to creating with young students, this is what a noble quality.
