The “Chinamerican” Dream is Being Accepted By the Peoples of China And of the U.S.

 

 

The “Chinamerican” dream is being accepted by the peoples of China and of the U.S. The book argues that both China and the U.S. consider themselves uniquely superior; consequently that they have much of value to export to other countries. The meaning of the China Dream is always compared with that of the American Dream. Generally speaking, the American Dream is of individual freedom, the China Dream one of national rejuvenation.

The relationship between China and the U.S. is no longer simply that of producer and consumer. Peoples of the two countries have achieved a transnational connection through exchanges in various forms. Therefore, the book explores the relationship between the Chinese Dream and the American Dream, so providing a new approach to Sino-American relations. Using the blockbuster film Du Lala’s Promotion Diary as a yardstick, the author predicts that a “Chinamerican” dream will be shared and accepted by peoples of both countries, especially the younger generation of white collars.
