The film Go Away, Mr. Tumor¹ will represent China in her bid for Best Foreign Language Film for the 88th Academy Awards.

电影《滚蛋吧，肿瘤君》将会代表中国参加第88届奥斯卡最佳外语影片的竞选

According to the official website of the Academy Awards, Go Away, Mr. Tumor, based on a real life story of cartoonist Xiang Yao (who went by her penname Xiong Dun) and her battle with lymphoid cancer, will be China's entry for consideration among submissions² from 81 countries and regions this year. Sino-French production Wolf Totem and Cannes-winning director Jia Zhangke's Mountains May Depart, both previously⁴ rumored⁵ to be China's submission³ for the 88th Academy Awards, were not found on the list.

根据奥斯卡官方网站显示，《滚蛋吧，肿瘤君》--一部以真实的漫画师项瑶(笔名为熊顿)与淋巴癌抗争的过程为故事基础的影片--将成为今年中国递交的与81个国家地区竞赛的候选作品。中法合拍作品《狼图腾》和贾樟柯指导的戛纳获奖影片《山河故人》，之前都曾被外界传为会成为中国递交到第88届奥斯卡盛典的候选作品，但结果最终都没有在参赛名单中出现。

Han Yan, director of the film which stars actress Bai Baihe and heartthrob Daniel Wu, said he wasn't aware that his film was considered for the Oscars.

这部由白百合和吴彦祖联袂出演的影片的导演韩延表示：他从没有想过他的电影可以参加到奥斯卡最佳外语影片的角逐。

"I learned about the news through the media. A couples of days ago my colleagues from Wanda Cinemas asked me repeatedly to give them a copy of my resume and photo. Now I realize that it may have had something to do with this matter.

“我是从媒体那里得知到了这个消息。几天前我在万达影院的同事反复要求我给他们一份我的简历和照片的副本。现在我才意识到可能和这件事有关.”

There are so many excellent films, and we are really lucky that Go Away, Mr. Tumor was chosen! I want to thank everyone! I want to thank Xiong Dun. With my mind settled as still water, I want to proceed with hard work," wrote Han on his official Sina Weibo account.

韩延在他的新浪官方微博上写到：“优秀的电影辣么多，肿瘤君能被选中真是幸运至极！感恩所有人!我要感谢熊顿！现在的我心如止水，埋头向前”

Xiang (June 21,1982 - Nov 16, 2012) was diagnosed with lymphoid cancer in 2011. It is reported that Xiang was bored during her stay in the hospital and decided⁶ to draw her experiences battling cancer in cartoons. Her optimistic attitude towards illness and humorous stories, published in a series titled Go Away, Mr. Tumor, went viral on China's social media as she published them on her Sina Weibo account. A book of the same name was published in August, 2012, three months before Xiong died.

项瑶(1982年6月21日——2012年11月16日)在2011年被诊断出患有淋巴癌。据说项瑶在医院期间感觉很无聊，所以决定用卡通的方式画出她与癌症抗争的经历。她用积极乐观的态度，把病魔写成了幽默的故事，成系列的出版并取名《滚蛋吧，肿瘤君》。这一系列作品在她的新浪微博发表之后，迅速在互联网上流传开来。同名书籍在熊顿去世三个月前的2012年8月正式出版.
