The winner and the loser were almost born to be destined . In the behind-the-scenes footage of

, the main creators and starring actors are telling the story very American, including the creative, conscientious and hardworking McDonald brothers, and the "wolf" ambitions, tight-knit Kroc, a big entrepreneur who seizes opportunities and madly pursues profits. There are so many angles to see this story, it's very interesting.

The McDonald brothers are like the geeks of that era, Henry Ford in the catering industry, and the assembly line created by them alone gave birth to the fast food industry. They also have ambitions and expectations, but after all, they are only at the level of ordinary people, and they are more willing to return to their own land to be happy and contented landlords, until let the wolf into the hen, and the peaceful life is broken by Kroc. There is no doubt that Kroc has a good eye for money, but the biggest fact is that McDonald made Kroc. As for Kroc, of course, there is something moving and even awe-inspiring. His terrifying persistence, hunger for success, hands-on hard work, and a keen sense of smell and timely adjustment of strategies all let people know that he is no ordinary person.

The good and bad people in the story may not be clear enough, but the winner and the loser are clearly cruel. Those winners, Kroc, and Joan, all seem to be born like sharks, betting big, looking at the big picture, using the rules of the game, there is no other way.

The Founder quotes

  • Dick McDonald: I just have to ask you one thing. Something I've never understood.

    Ray Kroc: Alright.

    Dick McDonald: That day we met, when we gave you the tour...

    Ray Kroc: Uh huh. What about it?

    Dick McDonald: We showed you everything. The whole system, all of our secrets. We were an open book. So why didn't you just...

    Ray Kroc: Steal it? Just, grab your ideas and run off, start my own business... using all those ideas of yours. It would have failed.

    Dick McDonald: How do you know?

    Ray Kroc: Am I the only one who got the kitchen tour? You must have invited lots of people back there, huh?

    Dick McDonald: And?

    Ray Kroc: How many of them succeeded?

    Dick McDonald: Lots of people started restaurants.

    Ray Kroc: As big as McDonald's?

    Dick McDonald: Of course not.

    Ray Kroc: No one ever has and no one ever will because they all lacked that one thing... that makes McDonald's special.

    Dick McDonald: Which is?

    Ray Kroc: Even you don't know what it is.

    Dick McDonald: Enlighten me.

    Ray Kroc: It's not just the system, Dick. It's the name. That glorious name, McDonald's. It could be, anything you want it to be... it's limitless, it's wide open... it sounds, uh... it sounds like... it sounds like America. That's compared to Kroc. What a crock. What a load of crock. Would you eat at a place named Kroc's? Kroc's has that blunt, Slavic sound. Kroc's. But McDonald's, oh boy. That's a beauty. A guy named McDonald? He's never gonna get pushed around in life.

    Dick McDonald: That's clearly not the case.

    Ray Kroc: So, you don't have a check for 1.35 million dollars in your pocket? Bye Dick.

    Dick McDonald: So if you can't beat'em, buy'em.

    Ray Kroc: I remember the first time I saw that name stretched across your stand out there. It was love at first sight. I knew right then and there... I had to have it. And now I do.

    Dick McDonald: You don't have it.

    Ray Kroc: Nah...

    Dick McDonald: What the hell does that mean, nah? You will abide by the terms of your deal.

    Ray Kroc: I am through taking marching orders from you... You and your endless parade of NO's. Constantly cowering in the face of progress.
