Group 1

Native Japanese has negative views on development of culture and industry of Japanese animations and comics. It shows a difference between the thoughts of HK people and native Japanese. The expected answers is “no” since the people like reading Japanese animations and comics. Hence, they may not realize the potential negative effects in development process.

Also, the expected answer on buying figures of animations is “yes”. The reason may be that HK teenagers usually see the part of the truth and hence enlarge the seriousness. In other words, we heard some professional nouns, such as otaku. They focus on these people so that they think the Japanese are most likely to buy the figures. However, they do not be aware that otaku is just a part of the Japanese, but not all the Japanese.

Group 2,

I found that more Japanese interviewees do not know about the policy/law. I would like to know the reasons. Is it related to the openness of policy? Or the public does not concern about the policy so much?

I think There are many pictures in the PowerPoint. I think they can add a few words beside the pictures. Also, they can introduce the policy a bit at the beginning. =)

Group 3

Jackie Chan is the first impression of HK for the Japanese. Through this, I think they may also watch Jackie Chan’s movies. It is an interesting finding. If I am Japanese, I think Chinese restaurants are my impression because I like eating. =)

Also, the comments about HK from the Japanese are very positive. It is amazing that the expectations are similar to the result in most of the questions.

Overall

I think using PowerPoint and providing the flow of presentation are useful to help audience understand content of presentation. Some nouns which are not well-known can be introduced at the beginning of presentation for audience to understand. Comparisons can show the differences of thoughts between Japanese and HK people effectively.
