The change obviously made for a more optimistic ending, although leaves China Rich Girlfriend's adaptation with a very different status quo. In the movie, we leave the pair on a happy note, engaged and excited for the future, whereas in the book it's not even clear if they're back together. The biggest divergence is where it leaves Nick and Rachel's relationship. As hinted in Crazy Rich Asians, Eleanor and his mother-in-law don't have the best of relationship even after she devoted her whole life to her family instead of pursuing her "passion." While Nick is suspicious of her mother's motives considering that she seemingly only changed her mind when she found out about his fiancee's ties to the old rich in the mainland, Eleanor explains she genuinely wants to help the couple who still has to face the wrath of the stricter and more traditionalist Ah-Ma Shang Su Yi (Lisa Lu). Rachel learns about her biological father's existence thanks to Eleanor, who eventually turns around and supports Rachel and Nick's engagement.
He now lives with his legal wife, Bao Shaoyen and together, they have somewhat of a problematic son named Carlton Bao. After a great first night in the country, she found herself at the center of the loud and sometimes obnoxious Singapore social scene, with Nick's snobbish mother, Eleanor Young (Michelle Yeoh), silently judging her from afar.Ĭhina Rich Girlfriend picks up two years after the events of Crazy Rich Asians and mainly revolves in the unraveling of the identity of Rachel's real father - Bao Gaoliang, a top politician and a pharmaceutical magnate in China. Dating for more than a year now, Rachel had no idea what her summer escapade will bring given that she didn't know much about her boyfriend's background. With the source novel and the first movie making a lot of changes, there's a lot of questions and expectations of where the film trilogy will go nextĬrazy Rich Asians introduced audiences to the two main characters of the trilogy - Chinese-American Rachel Chu (Constance Wu) and Nick Young (Henry Golding) as the two traveled to Singapore to meet the latter's family for the first time and attend the wedding of his best friend, Colin Khoo (Chris Pang) to Araminta Lee (Sonoya Mizuno).
