1. Introduction In the second half of the 20th century, the words such as American Dream, British dream, Japanese Dream and others were once prevalent in Western society and today only the American Dream is still located in a strategic place of national development. In the recent two years, Chinese government pointed out the concept of Chinese Dream, which is to achieve the great rejuvenation of China, including national prosperity and revitalization as well as her people's happiness. We can say that, Chinese Dream not only embodies the ideal of the Chinese people deeply, but also deeply reflects our glorious tradition of no stopping advancement. Coincidentally, the President of the United States Barack Obama repeats the concept of American Dream in a number of speeches, that is, everyone has the right to pursue personal happiness.
China and the United States, the former is the largest developing country and the latter is the largest developed country. There are many differences on basic conditions, social systems and degree of development, path of success, ways of thinking, values, spiritual beliefs and customs of these two countries. The world is originally colorful, just the same as China and the United States that located in each side of the Pacific. Different countries have their own different dreams, but they are both great and irreplaceable nations; at the same time, they all have a strong national complex as well as an endless emotion of family-country. In particular, they are willing to create impossible miracle to cast a great country and share the golden opportunity in the development of their country.
