My templates are nearly ready. Here is my essay. It was finished within hours, instead of 30 minutes. (not today though)
It is not unusual for people to see things in different perspectives, and therefore to get different opinions on the same issue. One debate which is partitularly controversial is on the following question: are multinational corporations creating global sameness in consumer preperences? Some may think that international companies do creat sameness worldwide, while others might disagree. The answer , however, is not an easy one. For my part, I insist that multinational corporations create similarity for consumers all over the world. Here I would like to provide reasoning and evidence to validate my point of view.
The main reason why I believe that multinational corporations create sameness in consumer preperences is that it is those enterprises that bring the same products to every corner of the globe. For instance, Nestle is one of the biggest food manufacturers in the world. Since it was founded in the 19th century, it has brought hundreds of products to places all over world, such as Nescafe, Kit-Kat, etc. People in different countries can enjoy the same product with the same taste. By the same token, computers have become very popular nowadays, only 5 decades after the first one was invented during the world war II. Without the contribution of multinational companies such as IBM, Compaq, Dell, etc, one can hardly even imagine people in the poor countries using computers now.
Another important reason to support my view is that the way that people are living is becoming more and more similar around that world because we are using and enjoying the same products every day provided by large corporations. Children in Beijing can enjoy their favourite foods in McDonald’s, in the same way as those in New York do; residents in Paris can watch the same movie on the same day as those in Toronto do; people can even stay in the same hotel no matter where they go: London, Chicago, Moscow or Shanghai.
Admittedly, different laws in different countries may change the way, in some circumstances, that international firms are doing their business. However, nothing can stop the trend that more and more products and service will introduced to the world by the multinational companies. If one compares the two views in depth, it should not be difficult to arrive at this conclusion.
To sum up, given the reasons discussed above, I believe we can reasonably conclude that international firms do created sameness in consumer preferences. Clearly, the whole of mankind will benefit form it. Undoubtedly, more cooperation is needed to regulate the activities of the companies globally than ever before.
