Best Video

The video series “Foreign Musician Visiting Shanghai Electric" is a cross-border marketing campaign shown on Shanghai Electric's Facebook page, which showcased the chemistry between industry and music. The campaign features Yukes, a Chinese national instrument player from the United States. In three episodes, “Exploration", "Tour” and "Music", Yukes visited the headquarters and factories of Shanghai Electric to learn about the business system and future plan of Shanghai Electric while experiencing Shanghai Electric's digital empowerment. He interacted with frontline engineers and experienced the great Chinese craftsmanship. Notably, he performed original compositions on the Chinese zither in front of a 6,000-kilowatt steam turbine at the Minhang Site and the first 10,000-tonne hydraulic press in China. Through his innovative musical expressions, Yukes conveyed to the world Shanghai Electric’s century-old spirit of "meticulousness and perfection" and the "10,000-tonne” spirit. As the first attempt at the overseas communication of Shanghai Electric, the series of videos has been disseminated across various domestic and international channels and platforms. This integrated approach has garnered favorable feedback and impressive viewership metrics, further expanding Shanghai Electric's global network.

It is reported that in 2023, “Foreign Musician Visiting Shanghai Electric” also won the "Best Content Marketing Award" of the Digital Marketing Golden Bull Award, and "Best Overseas Brand of the Year" of the Top Brand Innovation Award, among others.
