Description:
The general plot of the film centres around a Robotics Exhibition in Taiwan (that's right, Nobita and Doraemon live in Taiwan) where they are voting for the world's best robot. One weird professor is really committed to developing the world's best robot, but has his spotlight suddenly stolen from him when Doraemon and Nobita somehow end up entering the competition. Having been accidentally coerced into the competition, Doraemon used a wide variety of gadgets to defeat his opponents and ended up winning the World's Most Excellent Robot award (it was a bit like that tournament in Dragon Ball [TL Note: I don't follow Dragon Ball so I have no idea what the name of the place is in English. Here's an image though]). The weird professor is so frustrated by this that he begins to develop an evil robot to defeat Doraemon. Meanwhile, Doraemon has become a household name overnight and is now a big star. Wanting to become a star and experience the spotlight as well, Nobita uses a gadget to disguise himself as Doraemon. The result of this is that Nobita, disguised as Doraemon, ends up being abducted by the weird professor's evil robot. Once he learns of this Doraemon immediately sets out to rescue Nobita. Meanwhile, still really obsessed with ensuring the world realises his robots are the best in the world, the weird professor sends out an army of robots to carry out terrorist attacks all around the world. Eventually Doraemon saves Nobita and manages to learn the weakness of the professor's robots, a fear of a certain type of gemstone. With this knowledge a group of the world's most powerful elementary school students are able to set out on an adventure, find the gemstone, and save the world.

劇情跟上面說的有點不太一樣 There are a number of areas where the plot of the film differs from what is described above
首先是大雄的爸爸被裁員,大雄跟小叮噹晚上去工廠一探究竟, First of all, Nobita's father lost his job. Nobita and Doraemon snuck into the factory in the middle of the night to find out why.
原來是人類員工都被怪博士做的高效能的機器人員工取代. It turns out that all the human workers were being put out of their jobs by robots the weird professor had developed.
大雄跟小叮噹就惡搞機器人員工,讓他們工作出錯. Nobita and Doraemon messed around with the robot workers, causing them to malfunction
後來劇情帶到機器人博覽會,小叮噹意外擊敗怪博士的機器人,跟怪博士結下樑子. Following this the film then went onto the Robotics Exhibition. What Doraemon did in the factory completely ruined the weird professor's robots, thus leading the professor to really hate Doraemon.
之後"宇宙總部"(類似科學小飛俠的無名主宰)警告怪博士要留意小叮噹. After this the "Headquarters of the Universe" (A bit like the Galactor from Gatchaman) warned the weird professor to keep his eye on Doraemon.
"於此同時走火入魔的怪博士為了讓全世界知道自己的機器人才是最優秀的  派出了機器人軍團去對世界各地進行恐怖攻擊" "Meanwhile, still really obsessed with ensuring the world realises his robots are the best in the world, the weird professor sends out an army of robots to carry out terrorist attacks all around the world."
其實是怪博士先製作的一群盜版小叮噹做壞事,最後再開巨大機器人攻擊城市. Actually, the weird professor created a bunch of evil Doraemon to do bad deeds. Only towards the end did he unleash a giant robot on the city
破壞範圍大概只在台北市而已. The damage was also only in Taipei.
"而小叮噹在救出大雄的同時也掌握了怪博士的機器人共同的弱點  就是害怕某種寶石  然後世界最強小學生五人組展開大冒險，找到了這種寶石拯救全世界" Eventually Doraemon saves Nobita and is able to learn the weakness of the professor's robots, a fear of a certain type of gemstone. With this knowledge a group of the world's most powerful elementary school students are able to set out on an adventure, find the gemstone, and save the world.
實際上是小叮噹自己回1000年前找寶石,留下手無寸鐵的大雄自己抵抗巨大機器人. In truth Doraemon went back a thousand years ago in time to find the gemstone, leaving Nobita to fight, unarmed, against the giant robot in the mean time.
不知道為什麼小學生大雄可以跟類似國軍的單位一起開坦克, I don't really know why an elementary student like Nobita was able to lead somehow lead a platoon of tanks
技安跟阿福也拿機關槍上場. 最後巨大機器人要破壞在台北市馬路中央的國軍總部時, 小叮噹從1000年前回來解救大家. Takeshi and Suneo were also able get a couple of guns and enter the battle. In the end the giant robot is about to destroy the military headquarters in Taipei when Doraemon returns from 1000 years ago and is able to save everyone.
