In the play, a hypothesis is made by the protagonist chanting: he is climbing high on the power ladder. UNDERWOOD commented that RAMY is not a smart person, because he chose the latter between power and money. The latter is real estate with a time limit of ten years, and the former is history. He is good at deceiving people, and also good at intimidating and temptation, but his most moving and powerful assassin is not to promise prosperity, but LET'S MAKE SOME HISTORY. This assumption is questioned from time to time. UNDERWOOD also occasionally wavered, and partying with his old friends at his alma mater, alcohol and memories brought him back to the era of innocence and frivolousness. He lamented that the library named after him would be replaced by other buildings sooner or later. He didn't know the significance of all this. But a snap of a friend who lives in the moment "EVERYTHING IS IN THE MOMENT" didn't wake him up, as they would never contact him again for the past thirty years. CLAIRE is also deeply fascinated by ADAM's free thoughts, but like UNDERWOOD, she can't resist the rights and everything it brings. The moment she saw the political news, she flew back to Washington from New York.
Let’s take a look at the winner’s equipment.
Favor is a weapon. UNDERWOOD always said that good deeds do not ask for rewards, but he does not believe in God at all. Maybe he strangled the injured dog in the opening movie, which was his only "good deed" without asking for anything in return. Winning through FAVOR is much more reliable and harmless than the support obtained through threats. The rich lady FALICITY, who always donates to CLAIRE's charity organization, said to CLAIRE: In this city, no one treats others nicely for no reason. I am very glad to be friends with you, and then took out the check folder. There is another scene where the role of this kind of bargaining chip is vividly and truly amazing: UNDERWOOD looks at each name in front of the congressmen’s nameplate, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages, and decides to sacrifice PETER to win WOMACK. It is really a step for Chi Guoguo. chess.
Information asymmetry is one of the reasons for market failure in economics, and it is also a weapon for smart people—hiding information and lying. A very impressive scene was that UNDERWOOD was promised the vice president in the office of the president. The president thought he was far-sighted and complacent. The cunning businessman TUSKE smiled frankly and acted as WISEMAN. UNDERWOOD pretended to be flattered and surprised. The three of them are all conceiving ghosts, and they are working in their own way. They worked endlessly behind their backs to reach this deal, just for their own benefit. Just three people are a society, which makes people shudder when thinking of international exchanges.
It is shameful to use others, but it is clever to use others' defects and interests. The failures of PETER and MARTY are in the final analysis caused by their own personality defects. Drug addicts and violent tempers deserve to be trampled on. I hate the former in particular. It is even more important to do what you like. When you meet a drug addict, you bring a bottle of good wine. When you meet a parent, you praise the photos of their children. When you meet a believer, you praise God. Transfer can get twice the result with half the effort. UNDERWOOD is just like what he said-like a sniper in the jungle, calmly finding the weaknesses of many enemies, and ending them one by one.
In addition to being able to judge the situation and make the right decision, UNDERWOOD also has a loyal and useful dogleg, a strong lobbyist friend and a media person with the right to speak. These people make him a good player in both black and white, politics and business. But most importantly, he has a wife who is like a clone of himself, understands his pursuit, and stimulates and wakes him up when necessary. These few people are secretive and omnipotent. The little ones seem to be played with applause and are grateful. MAKE SOME CALLS is a key line, and all the characters’ mobile phones have appeared on the scene. The operating rules of this society are like this, and the division of classes has become simple: HOOKERS WAIT TABLE, BODYGUARDS GET CANCER, PEOPLE UP THE FOOD CHAIN SAY YES OR NO. But smart people are the most unreliable. These behind-the-scenes people will not foolishly pay loyalty. , Even my own wife has a time when she is emotionally playing tricks on her head. Moreover, if the irritated little people unite, they can also overturn the boat. The loss of control is expected by the audience, but no one wants to see such a powerful protagonist being stepped on. He is knowledgeable, tough and bold, and represents the qualities that ordinary people can't be jealous of. If such a person does not "success", then I have to believe in God.
There are many things to ponder and learn about this drama, but in fact I don’t fully agree with its hypothesis. At least the environment I’m in isn’t so complicated now, and it’s all just graduated, young, frivolous, sensual, happy, and sensual. The big social wall was hit with blood all over my face (although this is a SOONER OR LATER thing). Expecting and afraid of "growth", you should become an ordinary person caught between FREE SPIRIT such as ADAM, GILIAN and UPPER CLASS ELITE such as UNDERWOOD. Just not being played by the winner of life.
