The Trump-Xi Beijing Summit: What the Smiling Handshakes Won't Tell You

On Thursday, Donald Trump will walk into the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, shake Xi Jinping's hand, and declare it a great meeting. There will be announcements. There will be numbers — billions of dollars in Chinese purchase commitments, a new bilateral mechanism with an important-sounding name, possibly a joint statement on Iran. Trump will post on Truth Social. Markets will rally briefly. Pundits will argue about who won. None of that will tell you what actually happened. What is actually happening in Beijing this week is something more consequential and more uncomfortable than the summit theatre will reveal: two leaders of two deeply mutually dependent superpowers, both of whom need this meeting to succeed for entirely different reasons, sitting across a table in a world that has already moved past the assumptions that defined their last nine months of negotiations.

CHALLENGE


Shakespeare Country wanted to showcase the attractions that tourists are able to come and visit in the area and wanted to use an online tool to promote what is available to new visitors.

The primary aim for the campaign was to raise awareness for the area and to encourage users to visit the client's website.

The campaign has been live for less than 3 months and to date, has received over 11 million plays and delivered over 2.5 million hits to the client's website.

TECHNICAL CHALLENGE


Building the Romeo game delivered many challeneges and techinical hurdles. One of the main challeneges was to create a campaign that allowed the end user to experience the attractions that are found in and around the birthplace of William Shakespeare.

When building the game, the ability to optimise images and files allowed us to expand on the creative within the game giving what we hope and believe is a fantastic campaign for both our client and the end users.

BENEFITS


We use Adobe tools to build all of our online viral games and find them to be extremely useful and creative when we deliver our client products.

Having a broad range of software easily enables us to provide cutting edge viral solutions to our clients as well as being able to move from software package to package easily and effectively helps to cut down on development time, given that fact that files and elements are easily transferable between the available software.
