Analysis Of ' The Roaring Dragon Hotel '

Thank you for writing our consultancy in regards to the predicament facing you and your team at the Radicor Hotel Darling Harbor Sydney.

The Overlook Hotel is shown through extreme long shots throughout the movie. This is done to establish the setting surrounding the hotel and make the viewer feel a sense of isolation. This adds to the overall tone of the movie, as when things start to take a turn, the viewer feels a sense of helplessness. At the beginning of the film, the hotel is introduced after a montage is shown of a car driving down a long, windy road, surrounded by miles of trees, bodies of water, and mountains. While these nature shots are being shown, unsettling music plays in the background. This montage establishes a sense of isolation and makes the viewer feel how far and out of the way one must travel in order to get to the hotel. Once inside the hotel, there are many high angle shots and large rooms shown. However, as the film progresses and things take a turn for the worse, the shots are eventually more confined, creating the sense of being trapped and isolated.

The case revolves around the Regal Carnation Hotel, located in Guam. Partly narrated by Steve McKenzie, he described his experience with the Regal Carnation Hotel.

There is an increasing number of new hotels spring up each and every day, so ‘survival of the fittest’ becomes a definite truth as competition is unable to avoid. Frink (2009) states that hotel companies have to consider different cultures under different locations when they go globally. It is usually hard for hotel firms to integrate other cultures into their own previously corporate culture, particular to successful ones with a long history as they already have had a stable operation system. For instance, a Hilton hotel built in China has an

Weaknesses – Changing targeted guests is the biggest weakness and affecting the company in my opinion. 2006 has seen complaints from frequent business guests as the hotel targeted the vacation traveller. Even though the window of opportunity was there due to the travel industry being sluggish those guests that were frequent guests have now gone to another company. Furthermore, the challenges from leading companies have more rooms and properties in the U.S with a great reputation.

globalization is prevalent in the world business. Developing countries such as China and India have therefore, become appealing markets to foreign investors. It is anticipated that China and India will soon be the world’s biggest economies. Presently, eighty percent of the electronic goods globally are manufactured in china. This has resulted to more western companies wanting to invest in china as opposed to other countries. Unfortunately, there is intercultural management problem with the unprecedented increase in cooperation between the developing nations and the western counterparts which are culturally different.

According to Yuan (2005), “Guanxi” refers to a personal relationship with materialistic aims. A contrast from Western culture, Chinese businessmen favor “guanxi” over the rules of law and will generally pursue such material gains relentlessly. It is crucial that foreign businesses are aware of the importance of this term “guanxi” in order to maintain their personal relationships with government officers or partners. The Chinese business is a type of organization developed from wealth ventures by overseas Chinese entrepreneurs. Such single person dominating organization structures are basic with limited operative functions and are successful in niche industries that are less complicated to operate for example, property, trading and basic manufacturing industries.

Wes Anderson’s “The Grand Budapest Hotel” is full of interesting details put in the film which you can see them obviously or not even notice them if you don’t look closely. Also, beards and mustaches of the characters are presented distinctively a rest of the film, but few people pay attention to them—It’s just a beard: does it have any importance? If you look closely, you will notice that almost all the male characters have some sort of fur spouting from their lips or jaw lines which are elegantly designed for each character.

Whenever a company is entering a new market it has to take into consideration the cultural differences between countries. Based on the case study analysis, the difference between the two countries in terms of eating out habits and eating preferences seem not to be understood by the Denver headquarter. Denver headquarter believes that it can enforce the same business model applied in the U.S to its stores in China, regardless of local preference. In addition, Foster seems to lack knowledge about the Chinese culture because she was not familiar with the market in China, as she had no experience working internationally. There was a lack of cross-cultural communication between Chen and Foster; even though, Chen had experienced both cultures while studying abroad in the U.S.
