Xiāng (Hsiang, ), also known as Hunanese ( ), is a Chinese language spoken mainly in Hunan province, but also in Sichuan and Guangxi provinces. Scholars divide it into Old Xiāng and New Xiāng. Old Xiāng dialects are of immense interest to Chinese dialectologists and historical phonologists because they, along with dialects of Wu Chinese, still exhibit the three-way distinction of Middle Chinese obstruents, preserving the voiced stops, fricatives and affricates. However, Xiāng has been heavily influenced by Mandarin, which adjoins three of the four sides of the Xiāng speaking territory. New Xiāng, which has lost the voiced obstruents, is to a certain extent intelligible to speakers of Southwestern Mandarin.

Same as usual, the company chose to air the ad on Shanghai Dragon TV on Chinese New Year's eve again. Although the ad still follows the old pattern, which is the repeat of 12 Chinese animal Zodiacs, the company clearly noticed the negative public responses last year, and has put much decoration on the ad. Less annoying than last year maybe, but still the old tedious strategy.
