Apparently these commercials were never aired on tv, but were virally uploaded on the chinese equivalent of Youtube where they saw tens of millions of hits and did the job!

As a footnote, it may have been that recently China has banned all time travel storylines from the cinema in case it creates politicisation of the people, or something like that. Whether this is true or not, you have to admit this series of adverts were effective, funny and worthwhile.
