This article focuses on Eleanor and Rachel, a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law and analyzes the causes of conflict and reconciliation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in terms of stereotypical characterization and discourse hegemony. Western-centralism has shaped the behavior of Eastern mothers-in-law to be old-fashioned, controlling and arrogant, and has put a cultural reason on her behaviors in order to cater to the Western imagination. Atthe same time, Western-centralism also sets up Rachel, who pursues freedom and independence, contrasted with Eleanor, in order to celebrate the superiority of Western civilization.  \nKeywords: Western-centralism · stereotype · discourse-hegemony ·  \nreconciliation  \n1 Introduction  \nAs an Asian film made by an all-Asian cast in Hollywood, Crazy Rich Asians has been a hit in the West but has received a lukewarm response in Asia, where Asian audiences have criticized the film’s characters and culture as detached from the reality [2] . The film’s, from the cross-cultural perspective, revolves around the conflict and reconciliation between and Eleanor, mother-in-law, and Rachel, daughter-in-law, expressing the imagination and interpretation of the East from a Western-centered perspective, showing the film’s own Western audience group and audience’s thinking. The analysis of the existing literature on film stays on the shaping of stereotypes of all Chinese in film and the cultural differences between East and West. However, they lack a deeper focus on the research objects and an in-depth exploration of the cultural differences, and ignore the issue of cultural stereotypes as a research perspective.  \nS. An, Y.

It’s about 18th centuries that this view appeared and was shaped in the first place, following the expression of “cultural superiority”,“institutional superiority” and“racial superiority” in next centuries, with the shared core of colonial ideology.  \nOverall, Western-centralism asserts the values of western countries as the universal and exclusive world values and the orientation of the west as the forward direction of all of the world [8] .
