This is the story of a brand that, in the chaotic of booming China, lost its direction but then found it again by helping urban Chinese find theirs. It's also a case of how in the immature Chinese advertising market, where media spending is often the primary weapon, cultural analysis was the secret to shaping a category-breaking solution that went beyond communications. It is a story of how a small spark started a prairie fire.
