It is rare for this drama to develop the plot from the perspective of overseas Chinese, and it also allows us to see their hardships and difficulties. Earlier, they were Chinese workers who built railways in the western part of the United States. Later, they were "circled" in Chinatown without governance, only for cheap labor, all kinds of inhuman treatment, inequality, and racism, all of which showed the arrogance and arrogance of some Westerners. . It also shows us the historical impression of Chinese overseas. In the eyes of Westerners, they generally have no names. Cooli (coolies) are their pronouns. Their lives are the cheapest, and they will not be registered on the streets. Possibly intermarriage with whites. But they are the hardest and toughest. It was also ostracized by local laborers, because these chinks took away their jobs. It is clear that the government and entrepreneurs have united to squeeze the people at the bottom, but the politicians rhetoric said it was the mistake of foreign labor.
This drama still tends to sympathize with overseas Chinese for the time being, and it is very rare in the context of the current Sino-US trade war. I hope the writers can keep this direction in the future. In previous (set in the United States) dramas or movies, Asian characters are basically marginal characters. If the protagonist is Asian, it is basically an alternate story. It is true that there are very few historically adapted dramas like this Asian starring. I hope there will be more in the future, so that both parties can reflect and understand.
