M: There are advertisements everywhere here in Hong Kong. The city is so bright at night with all the neon signs.
W: I like them. They make the city alive. I like all the different colors and I like the billboards with eye-catching pictures and slogans.
M: I think that there are too many of them.(9)In my opinion, many companies spend far too much money on advertising. They should have lower prices instead. Then they would earn more.
W: I see your point, but if companies didn’t spend money on advertising, no one would hear about their products. I agree that some form of advertising can be annoying. I don’t like it when people try to give you leaflets with information about products you have no intention of buying.
M: I also dislike having to listen to advertisements and jingles in stores or on the subway.
W: Yes, that annoys me too.(10)With billboards, you can look away, but with broadcasts, you can’t avoid them. (11)I like the way that advertising agencies use comedies in their campaigns.
M: I like that too. I don’t like the way that advertising campaigns often tell you if you don’t buy a certain product, you’re not cool or modern or efficient or something.
W: That kind of advertising seems to be very common with brand name products. They are always trying to maintain brand loyalty.
