Submitted by jason.zhanjia on Friday, 7 August 2009View Comments

Super Baozi (包强), is a cool animation image created by a young grassroot designer Sun Haipeng. The background of Super Baozi as defined by Sun is:

Super Baozi, being tired of being in Catering, is longing for developeing in Recreation. With intense enthusiasm and strong perseverance, he has learned to sing songs and to play nunchakus.

Based on that, Sun made two well-done 3D videos of Super Baozi. They are really creative, funny, and awesome.

Sun uploaded the two videos to both Vimeo and Youku at the end the July. Within 2 weeks, the first video has been watched 577,000 times and second one has been viewed 145,000 times in total. Moreover, Sun’s blog was featured on the index page of Netease Blog Portal on 4th August.

If Sun keep mading Super Baozi series video, I believe it will be another famous virual net star on Chinese Internet. Let’s wait and see.
