Setting
The story of this movie takes place in the future not far from the present. With the continuous progress of human science and technology, artificial intelligence swept the world, and it was inseparable from people’s lives at that time. At a product launch, a technology company showed off to everyone its newly developed robot “B-bot”.
Plot
“B-bot” not only has complete functions and meets various needs in people's daily life, but also becomes a good friend who knows children best through algorithm analysis and gives children complete companionship throughout the year. Sure enough, the cross-era invention “B-bot” in Ron's Gone Wrong was welcomed by people and quickly became an indispensable daily necessity in children's lives as soon as it was launched. However, the 12-year-old protagonist Barney is a minority exception, the only child in the school who does not have a “B-bot” robot. For this reason, he often feels lost. Because his family is not rich, whenever students use their “B-bot” to play social games between classes, Barney can only see classmates having fun and feel lonely and envious at the same time.
Barney is a middle school student with social disabilities who always stands on the edge of the school with social fear. On Barney’s 12th birthday, he failed to send the party invitations he had prepared in advance to his classmates and was even ridiculed and bullied by his classmates because he did not have a “B-bot”. However, he finally got his wish on his birthday and got a “B-bot” robot named “Ron” with great expectations. Unlike Barney’s initial expectations, this gift did not immediately make him happy and satisfied. Instead, Barney was dumbfounded by a series of out-of-order acts, because the “B-bot” given to him by Barney's father was a defective product thrown to the ground in the process of transportation, and this series of events changed the life of Barney.
In the process of getting along and getting to know each other, Barney and Ron’s interaction makes every child who grows up feeling empathy for every child who feels “less so social”. In particular, the two of them had an experience in the woods as two people making enemies of the world, hiding in a hidden corner and supporting each other.
