Amor en China

We would never understand why the oriental people, especially the Chinese young people, are so crazy about the western styled wedding procedure and ceremony. There are about 14 million young men who will never have the chance to get married since there are about the same numbers of young women shortage. Right now, if a Chinese young man has the luck to find a woman to marry, he has to fulfill 3 Must-Have: A house in the big cities, a brand new car and lot of cash to pay to his wife-to-be's parents. Otherwise, NO Way, Jose or, simply put: NO CAN DO.

What we saw in this documentary was just xenopholia extravaganza, so unrealistically overdone. A wedding in China may cost $1,000,000.00. A few years ago, a couple spent over 6 million US dollars to have a wedding ceremony, party and honey moon. Love? Well, nowadays, getting marry is the biggest and most difficult matter to a young man in China. Marriage in China now has almost become a commodity trade, everything is based on how much money you have, whether you have a house in the bigger city, what kind of car you are driving. Love is the last thing you have to worry about. Without said MUST-HAVE 3 major requirements, forget about it.
