the Princess with the range of iron (鐵扇公主, Tie shan gong zhu ) is a Chinese cartoon film of Wan Laiming and Wan Guchan left in 1941.

It is about the first feature-length film of animation produced in Asia. Its realization, into full Second world war, under the constant threat of the Japanese invader, does not seem to have been of any rest. The influence of the studios Disney and that of the brothers Dave Fleischer and max Fleischer is perceptible there, but the national tradition is very present in this adaptation of an episode of the Chinese novel of the 16th century, the Voyage in Occident .
