Deal marks first time the two global brands have collaborated

BEIJING, Sept. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Universal Music Group for Brands (UMGB China), the global brand partnerships division of Universal Music Group (UMG), today announced that it has signed an agreement with leading carmaker Shanghai General Motors Buick (Buick) for a first-of-its-kind collaboration that will see the companies launch a new original musical project inspired by the carmaker, titled "Guang Zhi Suo Xiang (Where Light Lives)". The song has been released globally on Republic Records China.

The song and its accompanying music video are crafted to depict Buick owners' lives and deepen their pride of Buick ownership.

The song's performer, Liu Lingfei, is a leading actor in Chinese musical theater, who has starred in dozens of musicals, such as the original Chinese musical "White Night" and "The Lost World", as well as the Broadway musical "Cats" and "The Changeling Doctor".
