About the project

For Chinese New Year, adidas set out to drive seasonal sales without relying on formulaic festive storytelling. Anchored in the brand platform “We All Need Someone to Make Us Believe — You Got This,” the campaign introduced a renewed New Year concept: “In the New Year, We Believe (新年有信念).”

Reframing New Year as a moment of inner ascent, the idea positioned belief as an unseen force — expressed through movement, perseverance, and everyday progress, true to the authentic spirit of sport.

Brought to life through product-anchored visuals, culturally grounded scenarios, and credible celebrity and athlete participation, the campaign cut through a homogenized CNY landscape — building emotional resonance while driving engagement and conversion.
