Mengniu, a major Chinese dairy company, has released a new thematic TV dairy commercial to support Chinese athletes at the Paris Olympics. Created in collaboration with Zhang Yimou's team, the commercial showcases the determination and perseverance of the Chinese people — qualities that Mengniu itself embodies as it has grown from a regional business to a global dairy leader over the past 25 years.
The athlete-celebrating dairy commercial aims to juxtapose Mengniu's journey with the Olympic spirit of striving for excellence. The company has advanced through scientific and technological innovations, developing products like probiotics tailored for Chinese consumers and establishing a highly efficient digital smart factory. Mengniu's commitment to sustainability is evident in its efforts to green deserts for organic milk production, founding green factories, and achieving 'zero carbon' certification.
This year, Mengniu plans to host activities with the IOC to celebrate ordinary people who embody the Olympic spirit and will bring a group of young Chinese individuals to Paris to inspire their dreams of achieving national glory.
