theviewofchooselover,thewedding,theconjugalrelationshipandthemarriedlife.Andthenguidepeopletochoosetherightviewoflove.
1.1ThePandect
ThedifferentviewsoflovebetweenChinaandAmericatypicallyreflectthedifferentculturaltraitsofChineseandAmericanpeople.Thatis,theChinesepeoplearealwaysmeaningandconservativewhiletheAmericanpeopleareoutgoingandfancyfree.
Chinahasahistoryofover5000years,thegoldenmeanoftheConfusionschoolhasaprofoundinfluenceontheChinesepeople,ofcourse,italsodeterminestheviewoflove.ThismakestheChinesepeoplemeaningandconservative,theywouldliketohiddentheirfeelingsratherthanexpressthem.Onthecontrary,Americaisanewly-emergingnation,ithasahistoryofonly300years.TheAmericancultureisbasedontheoceancultureoftheAncientGreecetradition.ThelogicalthinkingandanalyticalthinkingofAristotlehasagreatinfluenceontheirthinkingmode.paredwiththeChinesegoldenmeanthought,theAmericanpeoplearemoreromanticandfreedom.Whattheycareaboutisthepersonalityliberation.Ontheviewoflove,theAmericanpeoplearemoreopen.Theywouldliketodoanythingtheywantfortheirlove,nomatterhowamazingitseemstobe.Wewilldwellonthisinthefollowingsections.
1.2TheViewofChooseLover
1.2.1DifferentstandardsofspouseselectioninChinaandAmerica
ChinaandAmericahavedifferentstandardsofspouseselection.InChina,whentalkingaboutthestandardofspouseselection,wewillalwayshearthefollowingquestions:
“what’syourparents’opinion?
”,“Areyoumatchedformarriage?
”“Dosehehavehousesandcars?
”“IsheaGaofushuai?
”WhileinAmerica,thesequestionsrarelymentioned.In“Friends”,thesixprotagonistsallhavechangedmanyboyfriendsorgirlfriends.Whentalkingabouttheirboyfriendsorgirlfriends,weoftenhearaboutthesedescriptivewords:
funny,sweet,smart,pretty,handsome,especiallythefirsttwowords.
Therefore,wecouldsaythatthestandardofspouseselectioninAmericaisverysimple,peoplewouldchoosetogotogetheronlyiftheyhavemoninterestsandloveeachother.ButinChina,thesituationbeesveryplicated.Whenthinkingaboutmarriage,thesameinterestsandlovearenotthedecisivefactors.Whatreallymattersareyourparents’attitudeandyourfamilybackground.Basedonhistoricalrecords,ZhaochengemperorofWeidynastyhasadescendantwhowasdismissedfromhispostjustbecausehemarriedamonpeople.(TextualResearchofLawofNineDynasty).SowecouldseethatbematchedformarriageisveryimportantinChina.Thenext,let’stake“Friends”and“MyOwnSwordsman”forexamples.
1.2.2Take“Friends”and“MyOwnSwordsman”forexamples
In“MyOwnSwordsman”,wecouldseetheinfluenceofparents’attitudeandfamilybackgroundonthemarriage.Inthefirstset,TongXiangyuwasmarriedtoamancalledMr.Mowhosheevendidn’tknow.Thisistheso-calledarrangedmarriage.Unfortunately,herhusbanddiedafewdaysaftermarriage.Intheoldtradition,widowcan’tremarrysosheevenhadnorighttolove.Inthe25setand67set,TongXiangyu’sfatherandGuoFurong’sfathercametoTongfuTaverntointervenetheirdaughter’smarriage.Thesixprotagonistsofcoursetriedtheirbesttoletthetwofathersatisfiedbecausetheyarethecrucialfactoroftheirdaughter’smarriage.Justbecauseofthis,wecouldmakeaconclusionthatloveeachotherisabsolutelyakeyfactor,butiftheparentssayno,thelovewillbeeworthlessnomatterhowdeepitis.
In“Friends”,wecouldalsoseethestandardofspouseselectioninAmericaviasomespecificexamples.Forthosewhohavewatchedthesits,IbelievethattheymusthaveadeepimpressionontheMay-DecemberrelationshipbetweenMonicaandRichard.Althoughtheiragesarenotmatch,theystillchosetomarrybecausetheyloveeachother.Itisjustsosimple.Whilethelifeaftermarriagewasnotveryhappybecausetheyhadalotofdisagreements,especiallyontheissuewhethertheyshouldhaveachildornot.Finally,theychosetodivorce.NotlikemostChinesefamilies,mostAmericansprefertochoosetodivorceratherthanstilllivetogetherreluctantly.Thisistheirstandardofspouseselection.
1.3TheWedding
1.3.1Theweddingceremony
WhentalkingabouttheChinesewedding,peoplewillalwaysbeimpressedbyitsgrandspectacle.In“MyOwnSwordsman”,thereisonlyonewedding,butthisonlyoneweddingconcludedallthefactorsofatypicalChineseweddingceremony.Theredandgrandscene,thenumerousguests,thegrandbanquet,theloudfirecrackers,everythingneededisready.Theatmosphereoftheceremonyislivelyandjazzy.paredwiththelivelyChineseweddingceremony,theAmericanweddingceremonyseemstobemorepeacefulandsolemn.Nottoomanypeoplegatheredinthechurchtoblessthenewcouples.Theceremonyisnotgrand,butwarmandalittlepoetic.“Friends”described5weddingceremonies,allofthemarewarmandsolemn,makingtheaudiencefeelfortable.EspeciallyRossandRachel’swedding.Althoughtherewasnoaudience,themoodisverywarm.Wecoulddeeplyfeelthepurityoflove.
Franklyspeaking,thisdifferencesitselfisveryinteresting.TheconservativeChinesepeoplewouldliketoholdagrandandlivelyweddingceremony.Theyactoutofnormalbehavior,showingustheothersideoftheirpersonality.Onthecontrary,thejazzyAmericanschoosetoholdapeacefulandquietweddingceremony,theyalsoshowtheothersideoftheirpersonality.Wecouldfindmanyreasonstoexplaintheoddphenomenon,suchasthereligiousbelief,thegeographicdifferences.ButIthinkthisphenomenonitselfhasbeeaculture,theweddingculture.
1.3.2Theweddingfee
ThereisanotherinterestingdifferencebetweenChineseandAmericanwedding,thatistheweddingfee.First,theguestsattendingtheweddingceremonyinChinamustpreparearedpacket(moneyinside,atleast100yuan)forthenewcouples.WhileinAmerica,theguestsusuallybringamongiftfortheweddingceremony.Second,inChina,thecoupleusuallypayfortheweddingfeetogether.Becauseoftheredpackets,therealfeetheyneedtopayisnotaverylargenumber.WhileinAmerica,theweddingfeeistotallypaidbythewife.ThisprobablywillneverhappeninChina,butinAmerica,thisisamonsense.
1.4TheConjugalRelationship
1.4.1Thepropertyrelations
InChina,thepropertyisinchargeofoneperson,usuallytheoneisthewife.In“MyOwnSwordsman”,TongXiangyuandGuFurongtookchargeofthemoney.Thisreflectstwophenomenon.Thefirst,althoughthepropertyisinchargebyoneperson,thepropertybelongstobothofthem.Itseemstobeunequal,butitperfectlyexplainstheirfirmconjugalrelationship.Thepropertytiesthetwocouplestogether.Thesecond,thefemalesaremorefrugalandcarefulthanthosecarelessmen.Theyaregoodattakingchargeofthemoney.
