Wenzhang Liu

Wenzhang Liu, the mind behind some of China’s wildest animated blockbusters, has a pretty crazy resume. He worked on Ne Zha (2019), a movie that basically turned the whole hero’s journey thing on its head with a rebellious demon child as the lead. People went nuts for it—kids, adults, every age in between. You get this blend of ancient mythology and modern, laugh-out-loud humor, and the visuals? Absolute eye candy. Then there’s Jiang Ziya (2020), which dropped right after Ne Zha and proved that Liu wasn’t just a one-hit wonder. Jiang Ziya’s vibe is darker, more philosophical, even a bit trippy in some scenes, but you can see how Liu keeps the fantasy dialed up to eleven. And don’t even get me started on Ne Zha 2 (2025); anticipation for that one is off the charts. Fans are still speculating like crazy about what Liu’s gonna pull next. The guy really knows how to take old-school legends and give them this whole new flavor that hits with today’s crowd. It’s not just flashy animation either—there’s heart, some real depth if you’re paying attention. If you’re into big, myth-powered stories with a ton of style, Wenzhang Liu’s projects are where it’s at. He’s basically setting the bar for modern Chinese animation, and honestly? The dude’s just getting started.
