早在两个星期前就去电影院看过了《中国合伙人》这部影片。总体感觉：影片很励志、很煽情、也很商业。对于影视英语爱好者来说，剧情之后，我比较关注中国合伙人里面的英文台词，这部电影还真没让人失望，确实有几句经典台词和感人对白。以下为电影《中国合伙人》成孟王三人抵达美国后，与美国人针对WIPO版权事宜进行交涉和谈判的对白节选。
Wang: Mr. Bono .It's a gift ,from me.
Bono:You’ve gone to Chinatown ?

个人感觉：这段对白经过导演陈可辛的精心设计，可以说是《中国合伙人》电影收官前的高潮和压轴环节，配合当时的环境氛围以及黄晓明的精湛演技，很是煸情和鼓动人心，可惜的是：这段英文台词虽没有什么语法错误，但一听就是典型的中国式思维，没有经过美语思维的加工，显得不够地道。
《中国合伙人》谈判背景信息
成东青的新梦想学校帮助很多中国学生在留学考试中拿到高分。美国方面不相信这是实力所至，认为一定是新梦想盗取了试题。成东青据理力争，当场拿出一本厚厚的版权公约，请谈判对手随便挑选里面任何一条内容，他全都能一字不错地背出来，对手大为震惊。 中英文台词赏析1.It's because I memorized the entire text on the plane coming here. It's a skill that I mastered when was 18... For your information, I was only considered a mediocre of all my peers. Chinese students are extremely adept at taking exams. You can't imagine what they are willing to go through to succeed. You don't understand Chinese culture.
这是因为我在来美国的飞机上把整本书都背了下来。我在18岁的时候就掌握了这个本事...我希望你知道，我只是同龄人中的泛泛之辈。中国学生极为擅长考试。你无法想象他们为了成功所付出的辛酸。你不了解中国文化。

按中国的说法，我就是一个“土鳖”，害怕走出去，害怕承担风险。此刻，我站在这里，就在我们说话的时候，我仍然不免害怕。但就像我的朋友曾说过的，总有一些事情是如此重要，逼迫我们战胜恐惧。
