Abandoning principles for shortcut to success.
What attracted me into this drama was the 1st epi. of a reporter going undercover to expose a scamming housing estate .They did a market survey and founds victims made up of lonely and rich middle class retirees whose children lived/studied abroad.(kinda wish writers do market survey to find out whether viewers prefer their O/S Endings or not?!)The plott is mostly focus on 5 main characters 2FL-XLH, chief editor of a financial magazine,and JYD, an investment capital manager, 3 males ZH, husband of XLH, YS,-JYD's boyfriend and ZD, director of a robotic ihealth company. Both ZH and YS were directors of investment capital firms.
When the two women were set up by their superiors and subordinates, they were initially enemies. For XLH it was for her position and JYD as scapegoat of her boss,Wu, who had siphoned off money to set up a robotic ihealth company. Both women fought back to get back their positions,They eventually became friends when they realized they were set up and they had a mutual friend in ZD ,who both were trying to get funds for his firm.JYD', got back her post when her new boss,YS, found her capable and believed her evidence that Wu and his people set her up. He was also attracted to her.
Don't expect much romance as it will fizzle out for both ZH and YS out played ZD to get his company,legally but morally wrong.. ( ZD ,without funds , found himself facing police investigations for buying smuggled components parts,hence forcing shut down of his company, comitted suicide) They both did that to get rank up as partners in their respectives firms for their motto in business is being a wolf and not a sheep. The 2 women eventually found out and left them.
I enjoyed this drama for its women power as the 2 FL conducted themselves in cool and calmness when facing their enemies and doing business in principled ways ,not being sheep following low ethics and moral codes .
