Creative Strategy & Execution

90% of Thais really love international songs. Though they never sing it right but the melody and pronunciations are never wrong. Because of that iQiyi used Thai iconic song and change up the main chorus into our brand's name. So the brand's name pronunciation automatically stick into their minds as they hear the familiar melody

We create the music video with the karaoke text of the brand's name iQiyi (Ai-Qi-Yi) to let Thai consumers sing along with the song and at the same time they can read how this word is pronounced. Eventually it turned out that Thai consumers can pronounce the brand's name automatically.

Evidence of result

- Brand's name mentioned increases to 1,248% on the first launching day

- This campaign has got the 30.2 million impressions

- iQiyi gains 2.3 million engagements in total with 13.6 million views
