Mercedes-Benz launch A-Class in China with 'Are you ready?' campaign

German car brand Mercedes-Benz is launching the A-Class model in China. ‘Are you ready?’ is a project that looks at the willpower of six men and women, including a film director, a music lover, a baker and an extreme sports biker, to achieve their dreams.

The campaign features six young elites speaking of their persistence in getting where they want to be. The purpose of the project is to capture the journey from ‘dreamer’ to ‘pursuer’.

An online competition invites the public to share their personal stories through uploading a photo and a short essay about their life interest. The work will be judged according to creativity and the contestants' passion.

The project, situated on microsite Areyouready.com.cn, ends on 12 December. It also involves television, print and outdoor creative work.

Mercedes-Benz in China is managed by BBDO and MEC Beijing.
