Answer to Question 1

Advertising conveys a message encoded in language, symbols, colors, and other attributes, each of which may have distinctive meanings. Buyer receptiveness differs as a function of culture and language. Culture determines buyer attitudes toward the role and function of advertising, humor content, the depiction of characters (such as the role of men and women), and decency standards.
For example, in China, Nike Inc. ran an ad produced for the U.S. audience in which NBA basketball star LeBron James battles-and defeats-a computer-generated Chinese Kung Fu master. Chinese consumers were offended and China's national government banned the advertisement.

Answer to Question 2
