When overseas friends visit the Picasso Museum in Barcelona, Spain, they are very likely to encounter such frustrating situations: Standing in front of "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon", they want to hear why this painting could pioneer Cubism, but the traditional tour guide suddenly switches to explaining the draft of "Guernica"; They want to switch to the French version, but asked at three rental points, they only got English and Catalan versions; After queuing for 40 minutes, they finally got the equipment, but when paying the deposit with Visa, the staff's English was mixed with local slang, and it took a long time for them to understand by gesturing; The equipment was hung around their necks like a small brick, and by the afternoon, they were so tired that they didn't even have the energy to carefully look at the exhibition of Picasso's blue period manuscripts - a wonderful art tour was instead held back by the tour guide.

    Actually, there's no need to go through all this hassle. As a brand under Hefei Weima Information Technology Co., Ltd. that focuses on audio tours, Yingmi (YINGMI) has long set the goal of "making the explanations cooler" in the tour guide booklets. Considering the characteristics of the Picasso Museum, which has crowded exhibits, diverse languages, and multiple teams, they selected specific solutions from the booklet (C7 touch-based tour guide device, M7/i7 automatic sensing tour guide device, Z50 self-service rental cabinet, 008B two-way tour guide device). This solution doesn't rely on tour guides but is more detailed and free than those given by tour guides. Now, many overseas tourists visiting the Picasso Museum directly choose Yingmi, just like in places like the Suzhou Museum and the British Museum, truly solving the problem of "wanting to understand but getting confused, wanting to be free but being restricted".

Ⅰ. Four "troubles" in the traditional audio tour of Picasso Museum

    It's not that traditional tour guides are useless; rather, their shortcomings precisely hit the scene of the Picasso Museum. These problems are also the reasons we look for solutions in the booklet:

1. Exhibits are crowded together, and explanations are mixed up like "a stew"

    The exhibition hall of the Picasso Museum is not large, but it houses over 200 oil paintings, 150 sculptures, and thousands of manuscripts. Many exhibits are less than 1 meter apart. Traditional tour guides have inaccurate positioning, and standing in front of "The Boy with a Pipe", one might hear the content of the adjacent "The Weeping Woman"; A French tourist quipped: "I wanted to focus on listening to how Picasso used the pink tones in the Rose Period, but the entire time it was mixed with the explanation of the Blue Period, and in the end, I couldn't even tell which painting was from which period." What's more frustrating is that some tour guides require inputting Spanish exhibit numbers, and overseas tourists, looking at the number list, are completely confused and keep pressing for a long time, only to hear about other paintings, missing crucial details.

2. Small language versions are "out of stock", and machine translation is too cursory

    Most traditional tour guides only offer English and Spanish languages. To find French or German versions, one has to make a reservation 3 days in advance. Arabic and Japanese are "impossible to think about"; even if finding a small language version, it is mostly machine-translated, with stiff pronunciation and missing details - for example, translating "the decomposition and reconstruction of Cubism" as "breaking up and reassembling the painting", and saying "the thick texture of the oil paint" as "the paint is applied thickly". Last year, a Dutch tourist listened to the explanation of "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" in machine German, and even the core information "Picasso drew inspiration from African masks" was not mentioned. In the end, he said to his friend: "After listening, I only knew it was a painting, just like not listening at all."

3. Renting equipment depends on waiting and gesturing, and in peak season, it's almost impossible to get

    The Picasso Museum has only two manual rental windows. During peak season, the queue can stretch from the entrance to the street corner. It takes only a quick 1-hour wait to be considered fast. Overseas tourists not only have to endure the Spanish sun but also have communication like "guessing games": Wanting to confirm "can I use MasterCard to pay the deposit" or "are there Portuguese language devices", the staff's English is mixed with Catalan slang, and it takes a long time for them to understand by gesturing; The most infuriating thing is that when it's your turn, the language you wanted is already unavailable and you can only choose an unfamiliar language. You just "get the gist" throughout the process, which is not much different from not listening at all.

4. Heavy equipment, no interaction, no way to replay

    Many traditional tour guides weigh over 80 grams, with hard straps, and after three hours of visiting, your neck becomes sore and painful. What's more troublesome is that most of them can only "one-way broadcast" - if you want to listen to "how Picasso transitioned from Impressionism to Cubism" again, you have to flip back 20 minutes from the beginning; when a child asks "why the people in this painting don't have eyes", they can only chase after the tour guide, but the tour guide is already surrounded by people, making it impossible to get in.

II. Yingmi Tour Guide Solution: Solving all the "troubles" of the museum

    Yingmi's solution is not a random combination of products. It is all from mature models selected from the tour guide guidebooks. Each device is designed specifically for the pain points of the Picasso Museum and is convenient to use and reliable:

1. C7 Touch Tour Guide Machine: No sound interference even with crowded exhibits
    Regarding "crowded exhibits and prone to sound interference", the C7 touch tour guide machine in the guidebook is a "wonder". It supports two modes: "touch + automatic sensing": In the oil painting exhibition area, tourists only need to touch the NFC small tag beside the exhibit to accurately listen to the corresponding explanation - even if "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" and "The Boy with a Pipe" are very close, which one to touch and which one to listen to will never be mixed together; when visiting the open sculpture hall, switch to automatic sensing, and when you approach the statue, it will automatically play the content, without having to repeatedly touch the tag.
    The C7 was used by Suzhou Museum to receive overseas tourists, and even with an exhibit spacing of only 1 meter, there was no sound interference. This experience is completely applicable to the Picasso Museum. The C7 is also very lightweight, only 35 grams, and it is not tiring to hold it for a long time; the screen can display high-definition images of the exhibits and the progress of the explanation. If you don't understand "how Picasso used lines", just press the "replay" button to listen again, which is much more convenient than traditional tour guides.

2. M7/i7 Automatic Sensing Tour Guide Device: Lightweight and flexible, detailed listening
    If you are traveling independently or with children, the M7 and i7 automatic sensing tour guide devices are more suitable. The i7 is ear-mounted, weighing only 25 grams (about the size of two credit cards), and uses Ergo ergonomic design. Even if you wear it continuously for 4 hours to visit all the exhibition halls, your ears will not be pinched. The M7 is a light-holding type, with two headphone holes, and parents and children can listen to "the story of Picasso's childhood in Malaga while painting" together, without each person having to bring their own equipment.
    The explanations of these two devices are also detailed. They are jointly polished by art history scholars - for example, before the "Life" in the Blue Period, it will explain "Picasso had just experienced the death of a friend, so the painting is all in blue tones, hiding his loneliness"; before the "Actor" in the Rose Period, it will say "He fell in love with a circus performer, the pink tones in the picture are to express sweetness", which is much more detailed than the explanations of traditional tour guides.
    What's more reassuring is that they use the PMU safe intelligent lithium battery mentioned in the catalogue. From the first unit to the 1 millionth unit, there have been "zero safety incidents". The battery life is also very impressive - the M7 can last for 24 hours after a single charge. After visiting the museum, you can also go to the nearby Picasso former residence without any problem; you don't need to stop to recharge halfway.

3. Z50 Self-service Rental Cabinet： 2 minutes to complete， no queue， no gestures
    To save time， just find the Z50 self-service rental cabinet in the guidebook. It can be placed at the entrance， exit， and core exhibition hall of the museum， and can be used 24 hours without a person on duty： The touch screen will automatically match the system language of the visitor's mobile phone， no manual switching is needed； if you want to rent the C7 or M7， just click the screen to select， it is clear； payment supports Visa， MasterCard， WeChat， and Alipay， no need to exchange local currency， the deposit amount， how to refund， is clearly written on the screen， and the deposit will be refunded to your original account within 10 minutes after using the device， without arguing with others. After the Suzhou Museum adopted the Z50, the time overseas tourists spent renting the equipment was reduced from 15 minutes to 2 minutes, and the complaint rate dropped to zero - this efficiency was fully sufficient for the peak season at the Picasso Museum. A German tourist reported: "Previously, renting the traditional guide device took 40 minutes, but using the Z50, we got the equipment in just 2 minutes and chose the German version. I no longer had to gesture with the staff."

4. HM8.0 Multi-language Sharing Platform: Native Language Interpretation, Art Details Remain Accurate
    Are you worried about language issues? The HM8.0 multi-language sharing platform in the guidebook has a solution for you. It comes with 8 languages - English, French, Spanish, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and Arabic - covering 80% of the overseas tourist sources of the Picasso Museum - Middle Eastern tourists can hear pure Arabic and understand "the connection between Picasso's art and Islamic geometric patterns"; Russian tourists can understand "the differences between Cubism and Russian Constructivism" through Russian.
    These voices are not machine-translated; they are all recorded by native speakers: The English version is recorded by a British art historian who has studied Picasso for 10 years, when talking about "The Avignon Girl", he would say "Picasso deliberately distorted the characters' eyes to break the traditional perspective, allowing viewers to view the painting from multiple angles"; the French version is recorded by a former Louvre guide, with a natural tone, and will add "Look at the brushstrokes of this painting, the thick lines are drawn with a scraper, and the fine lines are drawn with a small brush" for details. If there is a need for less common languages like Dutch or Portuguese, it can be customized in 3 days. Last year, a Dutch study tour group went to Wuyi Mountain, and we specially made a Dutch-language explanation for "Rock Tea Production", even explaining "the impact of firing temperature on taste" clearly.

5.008B Two-way Guide Device: Team Visits, Interaction Not Difficult

    For group visits by enterprises, travel groups, etc., the 008B two-way guide device in the guidebook can solve the problems of "difficult interaction, annoying echo". It supports two-way communication, when a member of the group wants to ask "Why did Picasso's style become more abstract in the later period?", press the "Question Key" on the receiver, and the signal will be transmitted synchronously to all devices on the same channel, front row and back row can hear clearly; when the guide answers, they can also play pre-recorded Picasso creation sketches (including Yingmi Guide APP), for example, when explaining "Guernica", play his initial composition draft, allowing everyone to have a more intuitive understanding of "why the horse was drawn distorted".
    008B also supports 200 independent channels. When 3 different countries' teams visit the museum at the same time, the French team uses channel 1, the Japanese team uses channel 5, even if standing in front of the same painting, there will be no echo. Previously, Huawei's Shenzhen factory used this equipment to receive a German supplier group, the efficiency of parallel reception of multiple teams increased by 50%, and this experience was also very useful in the team reception at the Picasso Museum.

III. The Real Reasons for Choosing Yingmi: Not Just a Claim, But Strength Supporting It

    To say that the voice guide at the Picasso Museum can choose Yingmi is not just an advertisement, but is clearly stated in the guidebook's strength. These are also the confidence for our service of international venues：

1. International Certification + Safety Assurance， Using with Confidence in Spain

    All Yingmi guide equipment series have passed EU CE and RoHS certifications， comply with the safety and environmental protection standards of electronic devices in Spain and Europe， and will not have problems like "voltage mismatch" or "unable to enter customs"； each device undergoes 5 rounds of strict testing (signal， noise reduction， battery， drop， antibacterial)， achieving "zero safety accidents" from the 1st to the 1 millionth device， and is insured for product liability by China Ping An Property Insurance - overseas tourists visiting the museum with the equipment don't have to be afraid.

2. Own Production and Supply Stable， No "Out of Stock" During Peak Season

The brochure mentions that Weihua Technology has a 50-acre standardized factory building and 4 automated SMT production lines. They fully control the process from chips to assembly without relying on external suppliers. Urgent orders can be dispatched on the same day, and batch orders can be delivered within 72 hours. If the Picasso Museum needs additional equipment during peak seasons, we can quickly provide it, ensuring that visitors do not "want to rent but have no equipment". This is also the reason why we can provide long-term services to major clients such as Huawei and Adidas - reliable supply, which is why we can make such commitments.

3. 9G Service: Problems are handled, no need to panic

    Overseas tourists are most afraid of "equipment breaking down and no one to repair it". The "9G Service System" in the brochure has already taken this into consideration: We respond to English inquiries within 90 seconds before sales, and can free of charge send C7 and M7 samples for testing; during the sales process, we provide on-site investigation of the museum exhibition area and design "signal transmitter layout plans", and urgent orders can be dispatched via DHL on the same day; for after-sales service, we have 24-hour English and French customer service hotlines (400-990-7677) that are always available to respond, for example, if a visitor encounters "equipment not triggering", a phone call can remotely solve the problem; if equipment needs to be repaired, it will be completed within 10 working days and sent back, and backup equipment will be provided without delaying the visit.
    An Italian tourist previously encountered an i7 without sound at the Picasso Museum. After calling the customer service, the problem was remotely resolved within 10 minutes. He said, "I thought it would cause a delay in visiting the exhibition, but I didn't expect it to be resolved so quickly. It's much more convenient than seeking local repair services.。"

4. Services for international art venues, sufficient experience

    We have already provided guided tours for international-level art venues such as the British Museum and the Chinese National Museum. When the British Museum held the "Picasso Special Exhibition"， we used the YingmiM7 guide device to achieve a "100% automatic triggering rate"， providing daily service for over 5，000 overseas tourists with zero complaints； for the "Silk Road Art Exhibition" at the Chinese National Museum， our multilingual solution received tourists from 10 countries including Arabia and Russia， and these experiences are fully applicable to the Picasso Museum.

Ⅳ. Finally， I would like to say： Picasso's art should be well understood

    Picasso's paintings contain too many stories： the courage to break traditional norms in "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon"， the outcry against war in "Guernica"， the delicate expression of loneliness in the blue period， the sweetness and tenderness in the rose period... These should not be missed by overseas friends due to poor guided tours.
    Yingmi has been providing voice-guided tours for 16 years. We are not trying to sell a "voice-producing machine"， but rather building a bridge： allowing overseas friends to no longer queue for renting equipment， not being troubled by unclear explanations， and being able to stand quietly in front of the exhibits and understand every stroke of Picasso's intention； being able to visit the exhibition at one's own pace， not being pressured by the team， and not being troubled by language issues.
    If you are the operator of the Picasso Museum and want to provide a better guided tour experience for overseas tourists； or if you are an overseas travel agency and want to customize an exclusive guided tour plan for your team， Yingmi can always come up with an appropriate plan. After all， a good guided tour should make the art itself the protagonist， and every conversation of civilization should be clear， idiomatic， and warm.
