9 Story Distribution International and Magic Mall Entertainment have partnered on the animated children\u2019s series Luo Bao Bei<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The 52×11-minute series was created and produced by Magic Mall, with Cloth Cat Animation commissioned for production. 9 Story Distribution International acquired global distribution and merchandising rights for Luo Bao Bei<\/em>, excluding China. Dave Ingham (Shaun the Sheep<\/em>, The Octonauts<\/em>) is on board as head writer. The series is currently in production and is expected to premiere in China in the fourth quarter of this year.<\/p>\n

9 Story Distribution International will launch the series at MIPJunior next month with several completed episodes. The series follows Luo Bao Bei, a bright and spirited 7-year-old girl with a vivid imagination who is on a quest to understand the world around her with her friends, family and animal companions.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are so thrilled to be representing this one-of-a-kind property,\u201d said Alix Wiseman, the VP of acquisitions and business development for 9 Story Distribution International. \u201cWe immediately fell in love with Luo Bao Bei\u2019s irrepressible determination and with the funny and touching storylines about growing up and being part of a family. We are also very excited to become a part of this unique international collaboration between Magic Mall and 9 Story. We feel the series has tremendous potential around the world and can\u2019t wait to share initial episodes at MIPCOM.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to form this partnership with 9 Story,\u201d commented Grace Tian, the general manager for Magic Mall Entertainment and creator of Luo Bao Bei<\/em>. \u201cAfter our successes in working with Dave and Cloth Cat, I\u2019m confident that 9 Story will make Luo Bao Bei a household name worldwide. I cannot wait to see a truly meaningful cultural exchange with this series on every level.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLuo Bao Bei\u2019s experience is drawn from contemporary China, but her curiosity and love for life are universal,\u201d added Alex Chien, executive producer on Luo Bao Bei<\/em>. \u201cWe love how she figures things out around her with the help from her family and friends. She learns to be both smarter and kinder as each story unfolds.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re so pleased with the opportunity to work on this fun series; it\u2019s such a departure from what the market is accustomed to when it comes to animation for this age group,\u201d remarked Jon Rennie, the managing director for Cloth Cat Animation. \u201cThe storytelling is truly unique and we all love Luo Bao Bei\u2019s sense of humor.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
