GUANGZHOU, China, Nov. 15, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- A grand opening ceremony was held to celebrate the revealing of TCL’s Happy Cube pavilion to the public, two days before the official Opening Ceremony of the 16th Asian Games. Hundreds of guests from various countries attended the event at the Happy Cube, located in the Grandview Plaza, Tianhe Road. Guangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee (GAGOC) and TCL planned the event, which featured live performances, dancing and elaborate costumes displaying Guangzhou culture. Audience members crowded around the stage before the event started and were treated to a spectacular array of entertainment.
TCL’s Happy Cube, covering an area of about 2,000 square meters, is located in the center of the Grandview Plaza, a bustling and prosperous area of Guangzhou. The Happy Cube is an impressive modern construction; LCD TVs are stacked inside the steel matrixes at the front entrance of the cube, a dazzling display of multimedia. The main colors of the Happy Cube -- red, green, and blue, -- represent respectively, the athletics, science, and the future of technology. The cube has the capacity to support 4000 people and is one of the largest pavilions at the Asian Games.
The Happy Cube contains four main areas. Visitors of TCL’s Happy Cube will enjoy entertainment enabled by TCL’s advanced technology: the first 3D, animated version of "The Night Revels of Han Xizai", by Gu Hongzhong, a Chinese painter during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, multimedia shows of the development of the Asian Games, virtual basketball and bubble games, and TCL’s newest technology. One such product is TCL’s renowned 3D autostereoscopic TV – a 3D TV that gives the 3D affect – without the use of glasses.
COO of TCL Corporation, Lianming Bo, said, “TCL is rooted in Guangzhou and fully supports the Asian Games being held in its hometown. With our most up-to-date products and 3D technology, we hope to offer a truly unique, on-site, 'new vision' to audience members watching the games on our screens.”
Bo further stated that TCL will be providing 6000 TVs and monitors placed throughout all the main venues, 43 sets of LED large screens, security, and general overall support brought by over 1000 TCL employees.
