On the Celebrity SpokespersonCurrently, we could hardly live a single day without seeing a celebrity spokesperson promoting a product or a social campaign on TV, net or other media. This is an intensely popular trend that we cannot fail to notice. There is no doubt that the celebrity spokespeople could boost the sale of a product. A host of celebrity spokespersons, however, have emerged as the marketing tool of some companies, even companies producing and selling fake and inferior items. This kind of behavior has produced negative impacts on consumers and whole society, which should be severely criticized and penalized. Of course, as is known to all, everything has both bright and dark sides. Some stars’ endorsement of social activities and public campaigns raises public awareness, giving rise to changes in public behavior. In this case, they serve as positive role models of the general public. To name only one case: Pu CX, a household figure, acting as the celebrity spokesman of the China AIDS Foundation, contributes greatly to the cause of AIDS prevention and cure in China.
On the Celebrity Spokesperson 明星代言问题当前,通过电视,网络和其他媒体,我们每天可看到名人代言产品促销的广告或参与社会活动的报道,这已成为非常流行的趋势,我们无法不去关注。 毫无疑问,名人代言可以促进产品的销售。然而,现在很多名人已然成为某些公司,甚至是产销假冒伪劣产品公司的营销工具,频频露面。这种行为已经对我们的消费者和整个社会产生了负面的影响,对此理应受到严厉谴责和相应处罚。当然,众所周知,任何事情有其消极面,也有其积极面。一些明星代言的社会活动和公共(益)活动的确也提升了公众的认识。这里只举一个例子,濮存昕是一位家喻户晓的人物,作为中国艾滋病基金会的明星代言人,他为中国的艾滋病防治事业做出了很大的贡献。
