Have you ever run for student council president at your school?
The general process is to make a poster, give a speech, and then canvass for votes.
Just wait for the result of the vote.
And the drama recommended by Uncle Fan today, the student union election is comparable to the presidential election.
Of course, the protagonist is indeed rushing to become the president.
The Politician Season 1
The screenwriter of the show is "Ryan Murphy" , who is known as "the devil in the American drama circle".
Ryan Murphy has long been openly out of the closet, and many of his works are LGBT-inspired.
"The Politician" is also his first work after switching to Netflix .
The previous "Pose", "American Horror Story" season eight, "Glee" are all from his hands.
The actor Payton started at the age of 7 and his goal was to become president.
Peyton lives in an extremely wealthy family. Although he is an adopted son and is often bullied by his two older brothers, his mother loves her very much.
In her mother's words, I hope Payton can realize his dream and save the family's reputation that was ruined by his brothers.
Payton has been studying the biographies of successive presidents since he was a child, in order to find out what experiences and qualities they share in common, making victory an inevitable outcome.
But first there is a perilous hurdle: San Sebastian College , elected student body president, earns a spot at Harvard.
In fact, with Payton's family conditions, he can "buy" a place to enter Harvard, which is how his two brothers got it.
This also reveals the "hidden rules" that exist in some colleges and universities.
But Payton didn't want this. First of all, he was excellent in all aspects and wanted to be admitted by virtue of his strength.
Secondly, once he spends money to go through the back door, it will become a big stain on his future life and affect his path to becoming president.
At school, Payton had his own planning group.
One of them is his girlfriend Alice, who dreams of becoming first lady.
The other two are responsible for making plans and using professional and accurate data to analyze the results. Big data is used to investigate public opinion, and models are used to calculate the probability of winning.
And his opponent is also very strong - River.
But River didn't want to fight for anything, all he did was forced by his father and girlfriend Astrid to do it.
Speaking of which, the relationship between River and Payton is also close.
River used to be Peyton's Chinese teacher, but slowly the two got together. Peyton was always vulnerable and not good at disguising in front of River.
Competitive speeches at the school, compared to Peyton's boxy speeches, River told a story of his own suicide and won the support of most people.
And he also chose a ruthless role as his deputy.
Payton ran to River's house to reason, but River shot himself in front of him.
Is this really just the student council running for president? Shots are out.
At the memorial service, River's girlfriend Astrid officially succeeded River in the campaign, which caught Payton by surprise.
But Payton's team also came up with a countermeasure.
First, let his girlfriend Alice and Payton break up , pretending to be cheating, and win sympathy votes.
Sure enough, the effect was immediate. When he got to school, even the Chinese teacher told him that no matter what you got in the test, he would give you an A.
On the other hand, they invited Infiniti, who was suffering from cancer, to serve as their deputy.
Under the double-sided attack of Peyton and Grandma Infiniti, she could only agree.
The addition of Infiniti has boosted Payton's approval ratings .
The current situation is very favorable for Payton, and the competition to succeed the student body president is just around the corner.
But at this time, someone told Peyton that Infiniti's illness was fake and that she didn't have cancer at all.
Payton tentatively asked for details of Infiniti's condition, but she couldn't answer, and her grandmother prevented her from doing any normal tests at the hospital.
By chance, Infiniti's grandmother shaves her growing hair at home.
Increasingly suspicious, he spoke to his team about it.
They organized a blood drive and got a blood sample from Infiniti for testing.
The results showed that all her indicators were normal and there was no sign of cancer...
Uncle Fan will not say much about how the next plot will develop, anyway, the reversal is beyond imagination.
Betrayal by colleagues, fake cheating turns into real cheating, and Peyton has to fight with his two brothers at home when dealing with these matters...
Simply not too exciting!
When I watched the first episode, I thought that Peyton and River would fall in love and kill each other, but I didn't expect River to survive an episode.
But he is a very important person to Payton. In front of him, Payton is a person who has feelings and tears.
It is also River who supports Payton invisibly to do something.
The whole show is full of irony.
How are politicians made? Born into a rich and noble family, entering a prestigious school, defeating opponents, and being virtuous...
Even so, there are countless people vying for it.
Power is addictive.
