The Longjiang Forest Industry Ecological Culture IP Collection Design, is a vibrant ensemble of six enchanting characters that embody the essence of nature's bounty and harmony in Northeast China.

Each character, crafted with meticulous attention to detail, showcases the unique charm of Longjiang's forestry ecosystem:

Snowy Cub Tianci: The frosty ambassador, embodying the purity and wonder of winter snows, inviting all to experience the magic of the silvery landscape.

Autumn Duck Youyou: Gracefully swimming through autumn's hues, representing the rare and elegant Chinese Merganser, a testament to the region's diverse avian life.

Dark Bee Mojo: A mysterious worker bee, symbolizing the industriousness and sweetness harvested from the black honeybees that thrive amidst the lush forests.

Ginseng Baby Abao: The mischievous yet charming guardian of the precious ginseng, embodying the richness of traditional Chinese medicine and the forest's natural treasures.

Forest Grain Doudou: The cheerful embodiment of the abundant grains nurtured by the land, celebrating the fertility and sustainability of the forestry-based agriculture.

Red Pine Guardian Ludun: The stalwart protector, adorned with the majesty of the red pine, standing tall as a symbol of resilience and the forest's ecological balance.



This exquisite IP collection transcends into innovative merchandise, including captivating blind boxes, solar-powered nodding ornaments, challenging yet educational magic cube toys, and commemorative pins, all crafted with eco-friendly materials like biodegradable forest resources, straw composites, and environmentally sound dyes.



By leveraging these new processes and materials, this project aims to revitalize local woodworking factories within Longjiang Forestry, fostering a circular economy that respects nature and promotes economic growth. The collection celebrates the symbiotic relationship between humanity and the natural world, encompassing the breathtaking vistas of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, meadows, and dunes, all under the banner of ecological civilization and harmonious coexistence.
