To the culture, advertising is also a visual art, it would construct the cultural style while spreading the economic information.

The American Advertising Association gave this definition “Advertising is a kind of people’s transmission which should pay the money, the final purpose is to spread information and to transfer intended feeling to the consumers and then reap the profits.”(Cui 1) In 1985, China called advertising a way to spread information, the purposes are to promote the sale of goods and work force, to influence people, to get the support of government, to promote a kind of undertaking or other responses. According to Gee and Michael Belch, advertising appeals “refer to the basis or approach used in the advertisement to attract attention or interest consumers and to influence their feelings toward the product, service or cause.”(Mueller151). The advertising appeals employed should be consistent with the values and taste of the target audience. Advertising is an information and activity, which should pay the money.

However, advertising is different from pure art, it is closely related to industry and society. In different periods, advertising has different ideas, medias, and tactics and so on, all of these take shape special persuasion and effect. “Advertising is a part of selling m arket, it is a selling activity that one business or person or anization pay money for publicizing one kind of special ideas.”(Rothschild 8) Advertising can be classified into two types. One is called narrow sense advertising. It only refers to mercial advertising which advertising persuading customers to buy products and make profits through advertising.
