SHENZHEN, China, April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On April 24, Hollyland, a leading provider of professional wireless intercom solutions, officially launched the Solidcom SE Pro, an upgraded version of the Solidcom SE. This new iteration offers comprehensive enhancements in communication stability, noise reduction technology, and user experience, catering to a wide range of scenarios such as film and video production, small live events, and maritime operations.

Hollyland Unveils Solidcom SE Pro: Enhanced Wireless Intercom for Diverse Professional Applications

The Solidcom SE Pro stands out for its use of the 1.9GHz frequency band, offering stable communication with ultra-low latency and strong anti-interference capabilities. This is crucial in film production, particularly in outdoor or complex environments, where reliable communication is essential. Its high-quality sound and ENC (Environmental Noise Cancellation) features ensure clear communication even in noisy settings. Furthermore, the Solidcom SE Pro can support up to eleven users and features a multi-channel full-duplex system, allowing directors, cinematographers, lighting technicians, sound engineers, and other crew members to communicate simultaneously. This significantly enhances team collaboration and boosts efficiency.

Another notable feature of the Solidcom SE Pro is its reliable communication range of up to 400 meters, which now allows crew members to operate over a wider area. Additionally, its omnidirectional antenna allows for both forward and reverse wearing without affecting communication distance. By utilizing the 1.9GHz frequency band and Hollyland’s advanced Auto Frequency Hopping technology, the Solidcom SE Pro minimizes interference from other devices and ensures stable transmission, even in complex wireless environments. This is especially advantageous for maritime operations or seaside shooting in drizzly and windy weather, where reliable long-range communication is essential for effective crew coordination.

Moreover, the Solidcom SE Pro’s USB-C port can be connected to a 3.5mm headset using Hollyland’s USB-C to 3.5mm adapter. This setup allows users to wear the Solidcom SE Pro headset around their neck, use its microphone while using the 3.5mm headset to listen to audio. This flexible headphone usage accommodates various user preferences and situations, addressing the issues of discomfort and headaches caused by wearing over-ear headphones for extended periods.

The Solidcom SE Pro ensures uninterrupted use over long periods with its swappable battery system and USB-C charging. Users can easily replace the battery or connect to a power bank, eliminating worries about running out of power.

Meanwhile, users don’t need to worry about any discomfort from wearing the Solidcom SE Pro headset for extended periods. Prioritizing user comfort, the headset is lightweight, weighing less than 186 grams, which allows it to be worn comfortably for extended durations without causing ear fatigue. This makes it an ideal choice for lengthy shooting sessions or events where continuous use is required. Additionally, its pre-paired setup allows for immediate use straight out of the box—simply lower the boom mic to start communicating.

Launched on April 24, 2025, Hollyland’s Solidcom SE Pro is now available through local distributors and on the Hollyland Amazon store. Pricing is as follows:

  • Solidcom SE Pro – 2S: $369
  • Solidcom SE Pro – 6S: $1,029
  • Solidcom SE Pro – 9S: $1,439

New Kids on the Block Generation Z and the Changing Office Workplace on the Chinese Mainland


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 24 April 2025 – Cushman & Wakefield, a leading global real estate services firm, today released its New Kids on the Block: Generation Z and the Changing Office Workplace on the Chinese Mainland report. This report analyses the evolving needs of the “new kids on the block”, Generation Z, on the Chinese mainland and their implications for the office workplace in the region. Survey data included in the report reveals Chinese Generation Z’s priorities of flexibility, collaboration, and sustainability. Additionally, this report emphasises the importance of optimising office spaces to attract and retain the Chinese Generation Z demographic, using Cushman & Wakefield’s Experience per Square Foot (XSF) metric as a key performance indicator. Finally, four included case studies illustrate successful workplace strategies on the Chinese mainland, offering actionable insights for organisations seeking to create appealing and productive work environments for Generation Z in the same region.

An Important Demographic

The “new kids on the block”, or Generation Z, on the Chinese mainland are an increasingly important demographic in the region. Generation Z on the Chinese mainland are a unique cohort, having been shaped by economic growth, the one-child policy, and the rise of the Internet. As the office-based Generation Z employee cohort grows in number and significance on the Chinese mainland, so CRE practitioners will have to deepen their office workplace change management and office workplace strategy on this generation to ensure the office workplace is fully optimised for the future.

Questionnaire Survey: What proportion of your organisation’s current office-based workforce on the Chinese mainland fall within the Generation Z age group?

Source: Cushman & Wakefield Research

Needs Alignment – Crucial

Generation Z on the Chinese mainland look for collaboration, and a strong organisational culture. They seek office workplaces that promote wellbeing and inclusivity. According to our survey and Figure 16, “flexibility and a work-life balance”, “personalisation, comfort and the promotion of a sense of belonging” and “meaningful work and purpose” are the top three priorities cited by CRE practitioner respondents that are best catered to by their organisation’s office workplace on the Chinese mainland.

Questionnaire Survey: Looking at the priorities that Generation Z generally value, which priorities do you feel your organisation’s office workplace on the Chinese mainland caters to best?

Gaps Present

Our survey of corporate real estate (CRE) practitioners on the Chinese mainland and their perceptions on current and future office workplace optimisation for Generation Z in the region, revealed significant gaps between existing office working conditions and Generation Z expectations. The returned information and data underscores the urgency for organisations on the Chinese mainland to adapt their office workplaces and implement strategies that align with the evolving needs of the Generation Z demographic.

Questionnaire Survey: Looking to the future, what changes will your organisation look to make to ensure your office workplace on the Chinese mainland is appealing/even more appealing to your organisation’s Generation Z employees?

XSF – A Value-Add Tool

Cushman & Wakefield’s Experience per Square Foot (XSF) is a key metric for evaluating office workplace experience. In simple terms, XSF measures employee experience, wellbeing, and performance, while also defining the office workplace’s role within the occupier’s unique office workplace ecosystem. Lastly, office workplace strategy case studies that Cushman & Wakefield have worked on, on the Chinese mainland, clearly illustrate how XSF can be used to guide strategic decisions, improve employee wellbeing, enhance employee productivity, and ultimately optimise the office workplace for our clients in the region, including their Generation Z employee cohort.

Johnathan Wei, President, Project & Occupier Services, China, said, “To align with Generation Z’s unique characteristics and their expectations in the modern work environment on the Chinese mainland, office workplaces in the region need to integrate technology and create spaces that foster connection, wellbeing, sustainability and productivity.”

Lois Yang, Senior Associate Director, Workplace Strategy & Change Management, Occupier Services, China, said, “Organisations on the Chinese mainland should explore a workplace ecology that links people, purpose and place to better meet the needs of Generation Z in the region. Also, the strategies need to be implemented via a systematic approach in order to create the workplace that helps attract and retain talent.”

Shaun Brodie, Head of Research Content, Greater China, said, “Generation Z are digitally fluent; they desire flexibility, a work-life balance and have a strong focus on sustainability and social responsibility. Understanding these traits is crucial to curate the appropriate office workplace experience for this demographic. Through enhanced experience, this office workplace will not only be engaging and alluring to Generation Z talent but will also be that much more productive.”
