Smartphone brand OPPO which is known for big investments in the world of sports is celebrating its 5 year association with FC Barcelona. OPPO has launched a new ad spot aimed at brand-building in Europe, highlighting its work with FC Barcelona. The campaign highlights the company’s continued market expansion, having added Germany, Portugal, Belgium, and Romania to its European portfolio as of last month.
This campaign additionally builds on a five-year partnership with the squad, which is the longest-running cooperation between a Chinese brand and a European football club. In India, OPPO is known for making big cricket investments in India before he pulled out of commitment to the Indian cricket jersey sponsorship in the middle of the contract. Not only this, brand is also staying away from making new investments in Indian cricket or with any other sport in India. But on the other hand brand is consistently investing in the global sporting properties based out of Europe.
The 30-second spot to celebrate association with Barcelona takes viewers into a young fan’s world as she dribbles her way to victory, casting off naysayers and self-doubt as she prepares to join a men’s match. Splicing action shots with those of Barҫa players, we come to see that we’re viewing the celebratory shoulder raise not from the stands, but by watching the action virtually through the Find X2.
The social series kicked off in June with a Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram Story blitz cheering on the club with #CheerforBarҫa. Selected fan messages were displayed on Camp Nou’s LED signboards to encourage the players during the restart of the La Liga season played behind closed doors. The campaign then shifts to echo the ad video, encouraging fans to tackle their own dreams and ambitions with the spirit of #GoForIt, regardless of the barriers they may encounter.
Fans can also watch a Q&A with the football squad’s defenders Gerard Piqué, Nélson Semedo, Clément Lenglet and forwards Luis Suarez and Martin Braithwaite – where the players shared their thoughts about the journey and answered questions collected by Barça and OPPO from fans.
