Royal Castle

Longfeng Villa Film & Television Resort is located in Fenggang Town, Dongguan City, Guangdong Province — a renowned hometown of overseas Hakka people boasting beautiful scenery and simple folk customs.
Covering an area of 380,000 square meters, it is the only national AAAA-level tourist attraction themed on wedding celebrations in China.
Inside the resort, four distinctive "cultural theme gardens" complement each other, eight scenic spots feature unique charms respectively, and four functional areas are integrated within.

Dongguan Longfeng Villa Lighting Project


Upon entering the Fairytale Town of Longfeng Villa Film & Television Resort, visitors are greeted by the Royal Castle, which exudes a strong Baroque European retro style and is full of fairy-tale romance.
As one of the resort’s key attractions serving both leisure, entertainment and commercial purposes, with landscapes themed around sightseeing and wedding photography, the original architectural lighting design lacked layering, featured monotonous colours and insufficient dynamism, resulting in an unremarkable overall effect that failed to achieve optimal illumination matching the theme.
To make the castle a new focal point and highlight, and to fully restore and showcase its elegant, romantic European royal style at night, the lighting design adopts soft floodlighting.
Combined with the castle’s unique staggered structural features, it highlights the architectural contours with wall-washing lighting, achieving smooth transitions between light and shade, and outlining a layered fairy-tale kingdom after dark.



As a popular attraction for sightseeing and wedding photography in the resort, the castle features a vibrant and joyful lighting theme, reflected in its gorgeous color presentation and dynamic variations.
The JOINMAX asynchronous lighting control system applied in the castle project enables remote monitoring and maintenance of the overall lighting changes via 4G wireless internet technology, delivering a rich variety of lighting effects.


Furthermore, considering the complex architectural structure of the castle, a centralized low-voltage long-distance power supply layout is adopted for both low-position nodes and high-wall nodes near the spires that are extremely difficult to access for on-site maintenance. This ensures the stable operation of the lighting system and the personal safety of tourists, fully reflecting the customized nature of the solution.

Glass Magpie Bridge

Aerial Night View of the Glass Magpie Bridge

"Clouds float gently across the distant sky, tonight we meet at the Magpie Bridge."
The Glass Magpie Bridge is one of the signature attractions at Longfeng Villa Film & Television Resort in Dongguan.
Regarded as Guangdong’s first 3D fully transparent sky glass bridge, it spans the Tongxin Lake of the resort,
with a total length of 333 meters, a height of 88 meters above the ground, and a width of 2.2 meters.
Viewed from afar, the bridge quietly hangs against the starry sky.
The dazzling lighting blends with the crystal-clear glass structure,
creating a gentle and graceful scene under the brilliant illumination.


As the main landscape with the largest horizontal span in the resort, the Glass Magpie Bridge boasts an elegant shape and an extremely long span, making it highly eye-catching.
In the initial lighting design, great emphasis was placed on the graceful appearance of the bridge’s contours in the night view.
Based on an appropriate number of point light sources, the design strengthens the effect of dots connecting into lines through varied density distribution.
This enriches the vertical layering of the bridge from top to bottom and echoes the fantastic starry sky in the distance.




The Glass Magpie Bridge and the Royal Castle are equipped with two independent JOINMAX asynchronous lighting control systems. Each system includes one Mini control host, which can connect up to 30 DMX lighting controllers via a network switch. The lighting controllers are cascaded to the next controller through network interfaces, forming a large-scale lighting control system. The Mini control host controls multiple lighting controllers in parallel in real time, ensuring synchronized performance of the controllers. It also supports remote data transmission, remote testing, and remote addressing of luminaires, enabling real-time linkage between the lighting systems of the castle and the Glass Magpie Bridge. This provides a comprehensive system solution for the unified centralized control and interaction of the resort’s lighting, completely breaking the rigid limitation of single-point, single-scene lighting layout and delivering extremely rich visual expression.
In addition, for safety reasons related to sightseeing on the glass bridge, the power system adopts two-stage voltage conversion, which effectively addresses the bridge’s restrictions on equipment weight and eliminates potential high-voltage safety hazards.

JOINMAX Asynchronous Lighting Control System


1. Data Display

One JOINMAX Asynchronous Lighting Control System consists of one Mini Master Controller.
It can connect up to 30 DMX lighting controllers.
Each DMX lighting controller is equipped with 8 independent DMX512 output ports.
Each DMX output port can drive up to 170 RGB 3-channel LED luminaires,
or 512 single-color LED luminaires with one channel.
A single controller is suitable for lighting systems with no more than 1,360 DMX display units.
Through the Mini master control architecture, a large-scale lighting system with over 100,000 display units can be constructed.

2. Three Major Advantages

The advantages of the JOINMAX Asynchronous Lighting Control System are as follows:
(1) Full network-based remote synchronous control for power supply and signals, enabling real-time linkage control of lighting in different areas;
(2) Simple structure, high reliability and strong scalability of the asynchronous control system;
(3) Remote monitoring and maintenance of the system, allowing real-time grasp of equipment operating status.
