Chapter 6: Different Perceptions

"Most Chinese girls want a bride price, whether it is in China's countryside or in China's cities, the woman asks the man to give a bride price, which is a very reasonable request in the eyes of the Chinese, because after the implementation of the new marriage law, the marriage law protects the premarital property of both men and women, if the man buys a house before marriage, the house is registered in the man's name, after the divorce, the woman cannot share the man's pre-marital property, and the woman after marriage because of the birth of a child affects the work, can not work during the childbirth, bringing hidden dangers, in case during the woman's pregnancy, the man cheats and has an affair, resulting in divorce, the woman is very weak, give birth, taking care of children, and doing housework are legally difficult to calculate how much money is. ”

"If the man's parents make a down payment, and the couple have to repay the loan together after marriage, and when they divorce, the woman can only get the money from her loan, then it is obvious that the woman suffers, so before marriage, the woman asks the man to give a certain bride price, if the man is too stingy and refuses to give a penny of the bride price, the girl will be angry and will propose to break up. ”

"Generally, conditional Chinese families, the man will take the initiative to give some bride price, just the difference between more and less, according to the man's economic situation to decide how much bride price to give, generally the wedding banquet is the man pays more money than the woman, the Chinese think that the manly husband with the interest must spend more economically than the woman, the woman's more responsibility is to take care of the children, filial piety to parents, do housework, take care of the rear, so that the family is stable, so that the man has more energy to work, the reasonable division of labor between men and women, the family will be harmonious." 。 ”

"And Russia is different, because the ratio of men and women in Russia is seriously imbalanced, resulting in many girls can not find a suitable partner, Russian girls have to lower their standards, they don't talk about the bride price, just feel suitable, many Russian girls have expanded their eyes from Russia to foreign countries, these years, young and beautiful Russian girls go to China a lot. ”

"They feel that China is very friendly to them, Chinese young men are also easy to get along with, have a good temper, know how to be considerate of women, they find a Chinese young man to be their husband, Chinese mothers-in-law also accept such transnational marriages, and they are very good to Russian daughters-in-law, we have watched some variety shows, and there are many examples of Chinese mothers-in-law and Russian daughters-in-law getting along very well. ”

"China's reform and opening up, with the concept of Chinese more and more open, transnational marriages are also increasing, China's economic development is rapid, has achieved brilliant achievements that have attracted worldwide attention, many Chinese family economic conditions have improved year by year, people have become rich, more and more Chinese people go abroad, more and more people accept Western culture, compared with the elderly, young people are more likely to accept new things and accept new ideas." ”

"And Russians feel that they have to spend money, make money for the sake of spending money, for a happy life, and it is a habit of Russians to live in the moment.

"Many of the Chinese young people I have contacted are very self-motivated, conscientious and responsible, and I hope to change their fate through their own efforts, develop better on the road of career development, and hope to find a good partner and build a happy family. ”

"Russian girls don't want men to provide her with a house, but to men can provide her with a happy life, at this point, when Russian girls choose a spouse, they still have requirements for the other half, which is the same as Chinese girls, girls hope to meet an excellent man, men work hard, optimistic about life, women and men can feel happy together, can feel happy life, get love, get care. Russian girls think that it is okay for two people to rent a house, or live with their parents. Two people will live in a very old house that has not been renovated for a long time, but the house must be very clean and comfortable. ”

"I said so much, in fact, I want to remind you that when you understand the culture and character of Russians, you will find that they are still very different from our Chinese oriental culture, many Chinese go to Russia to do business, there are many business opportunities, but the water and soil are not suitable, it is difficult to make intimate friends, the two sides are psychologically, culturally, one layer apart. ”

"Therefore, we must first understand Russia's history, culture, religious beliefs, life concepts, etiquette, living habits, consumption habits, etc., and both sides have a deep understanding in order to respect each other, seek common coexistence and differences, work together, and work together to create a better future." ”
