The 1st one appears at 1:17. The 2nd one around 1:23. The 3rd one around 1:55.

Nicknames: "Boring Feng Huang"

Logo: On an Asian texture background, we see the name, with a major part of it being placed in style of an arc.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on Feng Huang's earliest movies.

Scare Factor: None, it is boring, but it's a lot tamer than the previous logo below...



2nd Logo
(1960s?)

<iframe align="right" frameborder="0" height="207" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/2813bde78449bb7bfde5904fb7ee8be3c7e42ad8" width="275"></iframe>Note: The variant with the 2nd fanfare is seen in this video around 5:54. The variant with the first fanfare can be seen <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDzhnnFnHR8" target="_self">here</a>.

Nicknames: "Phoenixes from Hell", "Death Plants", "Chinese Phoenixes from Hell", "Scariest Still Logo Ever", "The Proof That Sounds Can Be Scarier Than Visuals", "Fenghuangs from Hell" "Foul Fowls" "Ho-o Twins from Hell"

Logo: On a black/red gradient, we see two Fenghuangs (Chinese mythological Phoenixes also known as Ho-o in Japan which are the Female counterparts of the Dragon ) from both sides of the screen. In between them there's the company name, with "凤凰" at the top and bigger than the other letters, and the other text seen below it.

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the fades.

Cheesy Factor
: The Fenghuangs look more like monstrous, spiky plants.

Music/Sounds:
  • A triumphant fanfare, which calms down the look of the logo.
  • On a few occassions, it used a frighteningly dark fanfare with a shrill sound mostly heard around the 1st half, which makes the logo much worse.

Availability: TBA

Editor's Note:
The Two Fenghuangs' eerie design and off-putting music might unnerve some, but the Fenghuang, like the Dragon, is a Cultural symbol in East and Southeast Asia


3rd Logo
(1960's-1970's)

Nicknames: "The More Friendly Fenghuangs"

Logo: On a blue/pink background, we see two Fenghuangs on the top corners of the screen. We see the company name between them, even bigger in size than before.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The triumphant fanfare from the previous logo.

Availability: Seen on Feng Huang's last movies

Scare Factor: Minimal. The more friendly design makes the logo more tamer and accessible to look at.
