The MOC representative of the HSF program expressed that these authentic and happy videos self-made by many ordinary Chinese will send out the warmth and happiness of the Chinese New Year to the whole world. Launched in 2010, HSF of MOC is currently China’s largest cultural exchange program overseas.
PepsiCo’s pop stars, including Huang Xiaoming, Jolin Tsai, Show Lo, Amber Kuo and Li Yifeng, also experimented with the role of film director and made their own New Year’s mini movies with their families and best friends, which have greatly amplified the message of Bring Happiness Home in society.
Richard Lee, Chief Marketing Officer of PepsiCo Greater China Region, said, “Unlike the previous BHH campaigns, this year, the consumers are given the opportunities to direct and make their own mini movies, and thus better associate themselves with the program. The partnership with Meipai has also made film-making an easy thing for these ‘amateur directors’”.
Meanwhile, as part of the 2015 BHH campaign, PepsiCo is also introducing crowd-funding into the charity cause in collaboration with the CWDF. The participants of the BHH program can make donations to the Postal Parcel for Mothers (PPM) program of the CWDF by scanning a QR code with their mobile phones. Every 200 RMB yuan of donation can buy one postal parcel for the mothers living in poverty-stricken areas. PepsiCo has been sponsoring the PPM program for three consecutive years. This year, PepsiCo will deliver 2,015 postal parcels to help the mothers in the remote mountainous regions get through the cold winter days and enjoy a happy Chinese New Year.
Yu Hongqiu, Vice Chairwoman of the CWDF, said, “PepsiCo has been providing support for the Mother Water Cellar (MWC) program over the past 14 years, and remains an important contributor to the development of CWDF. The BHH campaign, which again brings together the strengths of public welfare organizations and the business sector, builds a platform for the public to contribute their share to the charity cause.”
Katty Lam, Chairwoman of PepsiCo Greater China Region, said, “Through years of efforts, PepsiCo has established a successful food and beverage business in the Chinese market, and made vigorous investment in China’s modernization. We’d like to encourage young generation to take part in this BHH campaign, and care about their friends, their beloved ones and those in need to create a happy and prosperous Chinese New Year”.
BHH, which has been running for four consecutive years, is PepsiCo’s brand program for the Chinese Spring Festival and one of the most successful marketing campaigns in China’s food and beverage industry. From the 2012 slogan of “coming back home is the happiest moment for your parents” to the 2013 slogan of “where there is love, there is home; where there is home, there is happiness”, the theme of “love” and “home” has been running through the BHH program. Under the 2014 campaign, PepsiCo called on everyone in society to share their happiness and contribute to the realization of the “Chinese dream”. This year, by giving consumers the chance to make their own mini movies, the BHH program has taken a step forward and reached a whole new level.
