While this joke has always been popular, it has never been able to show how the ship sinks. Until now, that is. A recent set of cartoons reveals the whole story with the help of cute penguins.
但是最近，“友誼的小船說翻就翻”迅速火起來，而這里頭究竟有什么梗?一組可愛的企鵝漫畫告訴你答案。
The cartoons were first put online on Sina Weibo, a Twitter-like service in China, on April 2. Captions on the cartoons show that the two are on ’friend ship’. But then one gets thinner and the ship sinks.
這組漫畫首先出現在4月12日的新浪微博上。漫畫顯示：好朋友同乘友誼之船，如果一方變瘦，小船說翻就翻。
The cartoons soon went viral and were forwarded 78,000 times within 10 days, Chengdu Business Daily reported.
這一卡通漫畫迅速傳開，十天內已被轉發78000次，據《成都商報》報道。
The artist, who uses the pseudonym Nan Dongni, allowed internet users on April 6 to replace his captions with their own. Nan wanted to publish the best ones on his verified Weibo account and offered prizes.
創作這組漫畫的是漫畫家喃東尼，4月6日，他還邀請網友據此來創造自己“翻船體”。喃東尼希望能夠將最好的版本放在他的微博上，并提供了獎金。
The cartoons went viral on social media, such as Weibo, WeChat and online forums. Captions suggested the reasons why the "friend ship" sinks, such as friends having different jobs and industries.
這些漫畫圖迅速火遍各大社交媒體，在微博、微信等平臺大量轉載。漫畫解釋了為什么“友誼的小船說翻就翻”，比如說因為工作領域不一致而導致友誼結束。
For instance, if you have a journalist friend and ask them to have a meal together and they respond that they have to finish a news report first, the "friend ship" sinks. Or, when your friend is a teacher and you ask if they want to have a meal today and they reply that they have to finish school reports, the "friend ship" sinks.
例如，你的`朋友是記者，你想要約他們出來吃飯。他們卻答復你必須要先完成新聞報道，然后“友誼的小船說翻就翻”。或者說，你的朋友是教師，你想要約飯，他們卻說學校還有事，這時候，“友誼的小船說翻就翻”。
The popularity of the cartoons shows that people have little understanding of the different demands made by careers, which causes barriers in communication and that in turn creates misunderstandings and that sinks friendship.
這些漫畫圖的走紅告訴我們，大家對不同領域的工作者的需求知之甚少，以至于造成交流障礙，進而產生誤解，最后“友誼的小船說翻就翻”。
These cartoons with different captions have been viewed more than 16 million times. Nan said April 12 on his Weibo account that some changed cartoons without his permission but they too attracted more than 100,000 views.
而不同版本的“翻船體”漫畫一共被瀏覽了1600萬次。喃東尼說，有些未經他允許的改編版也放在了他的微博上，被瀏覽了10萬次。
The "friend ship" cartoons have finally transformed Nan into a cyber celebrity, or Wanghong, in Chinese.
“翻船體”漫畫也讓喃東尼成為了新晉網紅。
Nan was born in the late 1980s in Linyi, East China’s Shandong province. He told media that he left university to embark on creating cartoons. His decision came after he bought two books by Chinese cartoonist Jimmy in 2010.
喃東尼出生在80年代末，老家在山東省東部。他告訴媒體，從大學退學后，他開始了漫畫創作。這一決定始于他在2010年買了兩部漫畫家幾米的作品。
Nan wrote on his WeChat account, a messaging service, "I never thought I’d be the creator of a hot event. As you can see, the ’friend ship’ cartoons and notes have flooded the circle of friends on social media."
在微信上，他寫道：“我從未想過自己會成為熱點事件的制造者。正如大家所見，朋友圈已經被各種‘友誼的小船說翻就翻’給刷屏了。”
He said he created the two penguins – a yellow one named Dongni and a black one called Ade – last year. He was happy that the two penguins have become popular with Chinese netizens, but he worried that some people posted the cartoons with their own captions without giving him credit as the creator.
他說去年他就創作了這兩只企鵝——黃色的叫東尼，黑色的叫阿德。他很高興網友們能喜歡它們。但是，他也擔心一些人未經他允許隨意刊登他們的改編版。
