Bad Drama of the Year Award
The drama has two actors of interest, Hu Ge and Chen Long. They dressed well, and looked handsome in their business suits. Chen Long's character, Lin Bai, was my favorite character.
This is the story of the survival of the underdog, Qiu Dong; his fall from grace, and his climb out of the hole, with a few female companions along the way, to keep his company. I was intrigued by the trailer, but the intrigue thinned out over the duration of the drama. The actors did a good job, but their characters had no spark, and the plot stretched into oblivion.
The incidental music was pretty but monotonous, and a disruption during the dramatic moments. The last arc about the widow Yan was nonsensical filler. The director should have ended the drama at episode 44, with the lovers' reunion, and time jumped to Qiu Dong's success with his headhunting empire. This drama should have been 24 episodes only. Half of the content was drivel. The budget was wasted on this drama. Hu Ge and Chen Long must have taken the acting assignment as a favor; a bad decision on their part!
