HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 28 May 2026 - X Wallet, Hong Kong's leading smart financial services platform, is delighted to announce the official appointment of renowned Asian entertainer, artist, and entrepreneur Mr. Edison Chen as its brand ambassador for 2026 to 2027. To mark the occasion, X Wallet unveils its new cross-generational visual campaign. The centerpiece of this campaign lies in the cutting-edge use of "AI Reborn¹" technology, which flawlessly recreates Edison's iconic on-screen persona from the early 2000s. When the "Millennial Edison" engages in a time-defying dialogue with "the Mature and Stylish Edison in 2026," it not only sparks collective cultural resonance across the public but also simultaneously echoes X Wallet's hallmark AI-powered smart loan approval technology.

When Trendsetter Tells a FinTech "Encounter": The Intrinsic Resonance of Dual AI Empowerment

This campaign has garnered widespread attention across both the marketing and technology industries. According to the X Wallet team, collaborating with Edison Chen goes far beyond a conventional commercial endorsement; it stems from a profound alignment of core development philosophy. Edison's distinct personal style, along with his trend-setting foresight and relentless drive for breakthroughs, perfectly mirrors X Wallet's ongoing mission to revolutionize traditional lending experiences through innovative financial technology.

The deeper synergy lies in dual AI empowerment:

• Visual Dimension: Through "AI Reborn," Edison's look, vocal traits, and signature facial expressions from the early 2000s are meticulously reconstructed, making the impossible a reality and seamlessly enabling a cross-generational dialogue.
• FinTech Dimension: Seamlessly integrated with X Wallet's proprietary AI approval system, the campaign highlights the platform's ability to eliminate cumbersome manual reviews, delivering a fully automated, lightning-fast loan approval experience. The theme of "Dialogue Between Past And Future" symbolizes X Wallet's commitment to unlocking infinite possibilities for users through advanced AI innovation.

Redefining "Fast and Autonomous" for the New Generation

In the newly released commercial, Edison embodies decisiveness and confidence — qualities modern individuals aspire to when facing life's choices. X Wallet aims to inspire the market with the empowering message: "Take control of your finances, embrace life's challenges without fear." Powered by advanced AI, users can submit applications via the X Wallet app, enjoying a seamless, convenient experience without the need for physical presence. This perfectly aligns with Hong Kong's fast-paced digital lifestyle, encapsulated in the campaign's core message: "Time and Money, Yours at Once."

Mr. Mercer Ng, Marketing Director of X Wallet, remarked: "Edison has always been a cross-generational icon of trend culture. By leveraging cutting-edge AI technology to recreate his dashing persona from the millennial era across time and space, we are not only embarking on a daring visual aesthetic and artistic experiment but also reaffirming X Wallet's unwavering determination to pioneer innovation in financial technology.

We are immensely honored to collaborate with Edison on this year's trio of brand-conceptual blockbusters. Beyond the sensorially stunning main theme campaign, the public will also witness Edison's uniquely stylish performance in the 'mini-theater' ad series for X Wallet's two core products—'X Cash.AI' and 'X Loan'.

Just as the three commercials convey, technology shatters all conventional rules and boundaries. X Wallet's smart AI lending solutions are engineered to unlock maximum financial flexibility for our customers across both time and space. Looking ahead, we will continue to deepen the application of AI technology within inclusive finance, delivering a smoother and secure smart credit experience to the public."

X Wallet's new annual campaign will roll out across Hong Kong's prime commercial districts, including MTR stations, major social platforms, and streaming services, accompanied by limited-time promotional offers.
