The sound of Long-horned grasshopper (Guo Guo) was like the sound of “國” (kingdom in Chinese). Before the end of the Qing Dynasty, Guo Guo was breed only for the emperor as his secret toys. Guo Guo symbolized the invisible power of the Emperor. The monopoly of the Guo Guo was more often recognized as the emperor’s dominant force over people. This animation will directly replace the insect-shaped Guo Guo with the human form; also the experience of breeding Guo Guo will be transplanted to the new human form.
