At 15:30 on December 10, the third "24 Hour International Cartoon Marathon Festival" held by Jilin Animation Institute across the Taiwan strait officially kicked off in Jilin Creative Industry Park of Animation, Comics&Games.

The "24-hour International Cartoon Marathon Festival" has been held for three years. It is expanding to Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, becoming an important event brand in the Chinese cartoon world. We took this opportunity to establish a stable and close interactive mode of Chinese cartoon IP, and become a world-class iconic cartoon event.

The guests who participated in the competition were Zheng Yanyun, Huang Haocheng, Zhang Fangzhi, Pan Xiaoge and Guo Meng, famous cartoonists on both sides of the Taiwan Strait; Liu Rong and Huo Lianjie from Jilin Animation Institute; Li Zhen and Wang Li, excellent creative teachers from School of Comics of Jilin Animation Institute. The theme of this competition is the element of "the Classic of Mountains and Rivers". The Classic of Mountains and Rivers is a very old book, which contains the cultural essence of the Chinese sages.

It is undoubtedly a great test for cartoonists to create a complete story in 24 hours. While emphasizing efficiency, comics are more important to bring excellent stories to readers. At the same time, cartoonists can also see their long-term meditation.
