Abstract

Culture is the accumulation of various nationalities through a long history, each national culture has its own characteristics due to regional differences. Due to the great differences between different cultures, misunderstandings often occur in the process of cultural communication, which may cause unnecessary troubles. Therefore, the importance of the intercultural communication is self-evident. There are many ways to learn about intercultural communication knowledge, and The GuaSha Treatment is a work that is worth further study to express the cultural association and conflict between China and the United States. The direct communication and collision of different cultures directly expressed by the works provides a case for intercultural communication in our reality. This paper will take the film as a starting point and expound the cultural differences between China and the United States from a cross-cultural perspective, aiming to understand Chinese and American cultures in depth, improve people's intercultural communication skills, and promote the intercultural communication between China and the United States and various international cultures, and eventually to promote the cultural development and prosperity.
