DEFINING
WHAT IS PRICELESS
DELIVERING
WHAT IS TIMELESS
China’s biggest star in a celebrity brand ambassador campaign
for MGM Resorts International to deliver immersion in
and dominance over the Chinese luxury travel market.
2
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CHINESE MARKET
•65 million Chinese travelled abroad last year
•Chinese outbound travel is the fastest growing in the world
•The WTO predicts 120 million travellers by 2020
•Of the 430 million Chinese internet users and 755 million mobile phone users
67% use the internet to get tourism information and make travel decisions
•89% of licensed Outbound Tour Operators in China believe the internet is the
most efficient way to reach Chinese consumers
•According to a recent report by Boston Consulting, Chinese consumers rely heavily
on their peers and celebrity endorsements when making purchasing decisions
•Chinese consumers’ recognition and preference for brands is quite different
from mature markets
•Hungry for knowledge, affluent consumers in China—when lacking baseline
knowledge—are highly likely to consult blogs, social networks and user/celebrity
review sites for information
•According to Asia Media Journal, in a nation where 80% of people are first-time
buyers, people rely heavily on the advice of friends, family, and social media
when it comes to choosing a service or goods
•Today in China, the use of celebrity endorsers as a marketing communication
strategy in mainstream advertising is a winning formula to build corporate image
and market products
•CR Nielsen reports that Chinese consumers make 60% of their purchase
decisions based on referral, making word-of-mouth and social media king in
China
•As the Chinese culture is said to be collective, it is expected that social relations—
celebrity-mediated—play a pivotal role in consumer habits (Professor Kara Chan
of the Hong Kong University Department of Communications)
•Imitation of celebrity models is a positive predictor of materialism, exerting a
high level of influence over Chinese purchase decisions
•Consumers reported that they were more likely to use products endorsed by
entertainers

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CAMPAIGN
A campaign structured to address the three categories of the lucrative Chinese market:
highly affluent, new affluent, and mass affluent.
Appearances
Five staged appearances by Zhang Ziyi in Las Vegas and Greater China will offer a
plethora of multi-platform opportunities for MGM Resorts International to enhance
its brand in China and the Chinese community at large. In the following pages we
present an à la carte menu of ideas from which we can choose for the basis of the five
appearances.
Broadcast
A video shoot of Zhang Ziyi exploring and experiencing the unprecedented array of
exceptional attractions, events and culinary choices at the MGM Resorts will create
documentary-style broadcast materials for use editorially, advertorially, in-house and in
marketing collateral.
During times of peak Chinese visits or special events, the use of the video walls at
MGM Grand, for example, and tapping into Weibo (Chinese Twitter) will enhance the
experience of your guests.
The footage with be shot over a 7–10 day period to provide MGM Resorts with enough
material to release over a minimum of 12 months. The timelessness of the materials will
make it possible for MGM Resorts to use them over a long term.
Stills and Print
As appropriate, for each appearance we will invite targeted Greater China publications
to attend the events. Additionally a key prestigious glossy publication will spend
a minimum half-day creating a styled photo shoot with editorial content that will
dynamically include the agreed MGM messaging.
The video shoot will be supported by stills photography which will be placed into highprofile magazines in China, Hong Kong and Macau and can also be used in MGM
Resorts M life magazine.
We recommend creating a limited-edition, Chinese-language version of M life to
enhance the initiatives of the Brand Ambassador campaign.

TARGET MARKET OF THE CAMPAIGN
MARKET SEGMENT
THE AFFLUENT
The affluent buys to define
individuality to their peers and
themselves.
THE NEW AFFLUENT
The newly affluent buys
for status and because of
reputation of quality of goods
and services.
THE MASS AFFLUENT
The mass affluent buys to
impress, and to satisfy their
sense of luxury entitlement.
MOST INFLUENTIAL
WAYS THEY RECEIVE
INFORMATION
• Word-of-mouth: peer-topeer including celebrities
and friends
• Highly selective media
including digital media,
philanthropy
• Word-of-mouth strategic
brand and celebrity
alliances through digital
media, sponsorship, events,
aspirational media
• Celebrity and fashion
alliances through digital and
mass media, social causes

PREMISE OF THE CAMPAIGN
1.
Luxury is not just about materialism, it is about the
experience. The super-rich want the finest, freshest and most exclusive.
2.
The quest for better, more authentic products is continual.
Bespoke services continue to gain momentum.
3.
The feel-good factor is a critical trend
for all customers from the
aspirational to the super-rich.
4.
Chinese consumers expect that the brands they patronize
are good citizens. To paraphrase Confucius: humanity, righteousness,
respect, intelligence and authenticity are key tenets.
5.
The role of the brand CEO in selling to the ultra-affluents is
important.
“What others say about you is much more powerful than what
you say about yourself. That’s why publicity is more effective than
advertising. And why over the past two decades public relations has
eclipsed advertising as the most effective force in branding.”

APPEARANCES
Luxury is not just about materialism,
it is about the experience…
Zhang Ziyi—a golfer—joins the Michael Jordan Invitational and is paired with a Chinese

“There is one claim that elevates a brand above the competition, that
makes every other claim much more believable. This is the claim to
authenticity. Credentials are the collateral you put up to guarantee the
performance of your brand.”

private luxury designer shopping experience at Crystals featuring her favorite designers.

importantly—the internet play an increasingly greater role over
advertising in informing the affluent about resorts and destinations.”
10
The feel-good factor is critical…
MGM Resorts’ brand ambassador Zhang Ziyi launches the inaugural Festival of Chinese
Cinema during the Chinese New Year festivities. This is a weekend of classic and
contemporary Chinese cinema including art house movies, rare archives and personally
selected collection of Zhang Ziyi’s significant body of work.

China Daily’s cultural treasure and editor Raymond Zhou and Yang Qingsheng, head of
research for the Beijing Film Academy.
Movies will be shown in the screening rooms of the MGM Grand.
This is again an opportunity to invite the universe that exists around the high roller
community to participate in activities that signal MGM Resorts’ sense and sensibility to
the China Luxury Market.
The event can be co-branded with MGM Resort vendors who are also seeking dynamic
penetration of the lucrative Chinese market. It also provides MGM with the opportunity
continue its role as a cross-cultural ambassador between the US and China.

exciting lifestyles. We don’t want to be them but we will take our cues
from them, associating ourselves with the goods and services they
champion.”
11
Chinese consumers expect that the brands
they patronize are good citizens…
Coinciding with World Water Day 2013 Zhang Ziyi joins Cirque du Soleil in support of
MGM Resorts’ charity partner, ONE DROP, for a photo shoot with ELLE China. This gives
Zhang Ziyi the opportunity to explore the impressive sustainability agenda of MGM
Resorts and discuss the world’s largest environmental crisis: readily-available clean
water.

CEO for selling to the ultra-affluents is important…
Zhang Ziyi and MGM Resort’s International CEO host the annual MGM Resorts
International party for 800 affluent VIPs in Hong Kong.
This party features an announcement of Ziyi’s Brand Ambassadorship and a short
introduction from Zhang Ziyi.
Dinner at the VVIP table with CEO.
The CEO picks the raffle winner (this could also include the winner partnering with
her for the Michael Jordan Invitational if MGM Resorts prefers not to open up the
opportunity to a wider audience).
MEDIA COMPONENTS
•
MGM RESORTS driven media strategy
•
In-house private photography
We suggest this should be a private event with only an in-house photographer
capturing the evening; VIPs would be given the opportunity to be photographed
with Zhang Ziyi. They love this!
13
BROADCAST COMPONENTS
Zhang Ziyi explores the luxury MGM Resorts to present destination content styled in a
high-quality documentary format. Using the talents of an award-winning documentary
filmmaking team specialized in delivering content to the Chinese market, we will use a
director whom Zhang Ziyi has worked with and who also understands the sensibilities
of MGM Resorts’ content requirements.
This broadcast content will evoke the feeling that Zhang Ziyi ‘REALLY HANGS OUT
HERE AT MGM RESORTS’.
Once the contract with Zhang Ziyi is confirmed, we will create a separate synopsis and
mood board to present a vision of the content to MGM Resorts.
Dependent upon MGM Resorts’ priorities and budget, the content can be shot for any
the following formats:
•
One-hour special
•
Mini-movies
•
Interstitials
HOW MATERIALS CAN BE USED:
•
On-air sponsored broadcast version sponsored by MGM Resorts
•
Heavily branded version—”Chairman’s cut”—for in-house TV and in-flight
interstitials
•
Media micro-sites
•
MGM Resorts website usage
•
Trade shows
•
B-roll for sales and marketing
•
Co-branded collateral and promo materials with media partners
•
Corporate gifts
•
Co-branded press releases with brand partners participating in the activities
