Research question: How do Americans and Chinese people act differently?
Planning of the report: I will analyze the conflict in the movie, rush hour. I will
also research online and try to understand the differences between the American
culture and the Chinese culture. I will ask my parents what are the ways to
prevent people these problems from happening.
Before the conflict of James Carter and Inspector Lee, James Carter
assumed that Inspector Lee couldn’t speak English, but after he found out that
his partner Lee was just pretending, he got very irritated and start to have a
conflict with Lee about solving the case by just him. Inspector Lee starts to find
Carter annoying and he turns the black man’s radio on in the car. James Carter
gave him a warning that he could do that in China, but not here in America. Lee
could get himself in trouble in here. It is a very disrespectful way to do that in the
America culture. After it happened, Carter switches the music to a pop rap
English song on the radio, which Chinese people do not like to listen. Carter even
matches the rhythms with his arms while he was driving. Lee finds it boring and
just lays back down and relax.

According to the movie, in American culture people like to behave in a
confidant way and to talk loudly. This shows respect to each other. In the
Chinese culture, it is very important not to speak loudly in front of anyone that is
older than you. That shows a very grateful respect to each other. The two
cultures have the value of respecting each other, however they do it in a different
way that believe. Their behaviors affect how they work together for a period of
time.
Individualism - Collectivism should be one of the dimensions in the movie
Rush hour. In the United States, they work as a team to achieve their goal. In the
Chinese culture, it is best if you do it individually, because you will feel more
comfortable. I believe that the reason for the Americans in the United States to
work collectivism will make them feel more determine towards their goal,
because any concepts that were created were shared and they make changes and

improvements towards anything that they want to achieve. In the Chinese
culture, people respect each other by using silence and work individually to
achieve what they want. In the movie Rush hour, it shows power distance index
dimension. Inspector Lee request the FBI to put their men back or the kid that
was kidnapped will be in danger, but the FBI did things in their own way. It’s
foolish to listen to some corps from foreign countries. It shows that in some jobs,
it is not easy to approach to their boss and follow your orders. They are the FBI
operation and Lee was just a policeman that was assisting the case, they had no
reasons to follow what he requested. The ways between the two-culture works
really shows the style of their culture.
It is difficult to make culture problems stop because most cultures believe
that actions that other culture is doing are breaking their own culture. For
example talking that loud in China is a disrespectful way and working
individually in the United States is a disrespectful way of doing things. The only
way for them to stop this from happening is explaining each other’s cultures

before people mistaken it and the conflict starts to happen. They definitely need
time to adapt to the situation, so the people from each culture should understand
and forgive them from doing it for just a short period of time. Explain your
culture to them in a polite way and try to adapt to their culture if you’re in other
countries that have a different culture from you.
