Oreo | Yao Ming Campaign | Greater China

Oreo might be a brand that is popular with children, but the seven foot six inches Yao is also a fan. In the commercial, the little boy questions Yao on whether he knows how to eat an Oreo. Yao assures him he knows just as well as any child does.

The year-long campaign is supported by television, outdoor, in-store and an online challenge titled 'Twist, Lick, But Can You Dunk?’.

Patrick Tong, regional account director at DraftFCB Shanghai for the campaign, suggests that Oreo will spark a 'moment of childlike delight’ in a family.

The brand has chosen Yao as the new Oreo star because of his iconic presence in China. Yao himself is also to become a father soon.
