~9~ The wedding is coming with the bomb
This episode has a lot of information, so I scribbled down the story a little bit and sent out my thoughts, welcome to correct me, I don’t like to squirt.
There are two main lines, one with intertwined covets on the surface of the wedding, and the other with turbulent undercurrents under the wedding.
This episode finally made me regain some of my good feelings for Tom. I once complained about mrDarcy playing this role and it really ruined my idol, but this episode changed my outlook a bit. At the beginning, every bastard role played in this episode—— At the family’s wedding-you have shown your unimaginable tenderness, for this family, and for your partner.
In the face of such a huge Roy family, Tom actually has his own inferiority complex, even timid, insecure, and of course he has more desires, otherwise even if his nature is like this, he will not be able to support such a continuous concession. . For example, at the beginning of the car, Shiv did not say a word, Tom directly gave back to the question of "My last name is Roy" on the question of the surname after marriage. For example, in the previous episode, Tom went to his bachelor party before marriage and wanted to cheer him up. He had to report to Shiv again and again, and get her approval, these are all signs of his insecurity.
In addition to low self-esteem, he prefers to show off, but the object of his show off is limited to the marginal figure of the Roy family, Greg, and this is actually just fifty steps and a hundred steps.
Tom reminded me of dan in GG. He tried his best to enter this upper society, want to keep this high job, and keep the capital that can show off in front of others, so he must try his best to maintain the shiv. The bond, even though Shiv's intentions couldn't be more obvious, she wants to know all the inside story of the "cruise ship scandal".
So he is also worried, he is afraid that for these elusive rich second generations, what is he really? That's why there was a question before the wedding, asking her if she was playing him. Fortunately, Shiv seems to really want to be with him, and in this episode, including Shiv's parents once told her "he's a good man". For a daughter who has all the material foundations, the only thing she needs is a husband who is willing to love her all the time. This actually makes me feel a little warm.
Tom’s worries were originally my worries. I thought that when the Shiv in the last episode was going to be angry, she switched to the presidential candidate camp against her dad. She did not return when she was shot by others. Meaning, in this case, after she got the news about the cruise scandal, she might have to join hands with outsiders and fall into the family's injustice, but she did not do so, ex + colleague + scumbag asked her "chicken lay eggs" No", she answered no.
First of all, she wanted to make a deal with the company's senior management to bring down her father, and at the same time directly proposed "don't let Tom be stained". In the end, this little abacus was seen by the old man, and the time bomb was solved once and for all, and he directly traded with the boss. The common interest gave them room for cooperation-the purpose of the candidate is of course not only to bring down ATN, It's the ultimate victory. (It suddenly occurred to me, did my father choose to close the bunch of local TV stations also have this consideration?).
When Tom was talked about by Shiv, the look in his eyes actually explained everything. He must know it, but he just didn't want to expose it or admit it. There is a kind of tragic heroism in this particular, the level of this role is still many, not just satisfying the swearing, bullying Greg for the fun of flatterers as simple as it is. In addition, Greg does not know if there is any story, but at present it can be defined as a broken mouth king who does not know how to advance or retreat. Please watch the last "Snowy Mouth Mouth" of this season by yourself.
Ps, Marcia shouldn't have too many stories to unfold in this season, but when Shiv threatened Dad, this woman really didn't show any affection.
The other side of the wedding, of course, was the hostile takeover between Ken and foreign enemies. In the previous episode, Ken put away the unprovoked kindness and the swallowing voices after being bullied. In this episode, when faced with a very important occasion in the life of his loved ones, he still hesitated. This hesitation is not bad, nor is it weakness.
The other party wants to speed up the progress. After all, the family is at the wedding and can be caught off guard. At this time, Ken hesitates. It's like a bloody wedding in Game of Thrones, except that there is no blood, and he still forces Ken himself. It's really cruel to do it.
Immediately after the plot above, there was a short gathering of the manor groundwater system between the three brothers and sisters of shiv, ken, and rom. I think if this drama can be released for many seasons, this will become the last sincere and sincere relationship between their brothers and sisters. The dialogue and meeting are a plot worth cherishing.
Afterwards, everyone ushered in a night of complicated minds: the boss con was thinking about the relationship between himself and his horse; the second ken was still discussing the details of the acquisition; the fourth rom was thinking about whether he should be with this woman. Married; Greg struggled whether to tell his little boss, Tom, who saw the hookup between ex scumbag and shiv...all of them, they had different dreams in the same bed and couldn't sleep well. So, I actually prefer to be an ordinary person.
Early the next morning, Dad dealt with the "cruise scandal" and the candidate time bomb on the basis of profit. I have to say that Jiang is still hot, paving the way for this important day.
And where is ken? I haven't seen whether Dad is preparing with one hand. I only read it once. I can't remember some places. When Dad flew over, he took off his coat and went to see Ken, with a big smile on his face, a little gloomy. .
After that, this important day began. Shiv is getting married, maybe ATN is going to be fried, or Ken is going to be uprooted by his father again? The next episode is the last episode of the first season, and conflicts erupted.
~8~ k finally chose to part ways with all the pretenders
In the eighth episode, k gradually changed from a white rabbit to a wolf with fangs, but to be honest, I think it is a wolf with white eyes. . .
The first few episodes have some descriptions of K’s mergers and acquisitions or investment negotiation business, but they are usually uncomfortable. Once the other party gives negative feedback at the end, he is easy to get confused, including his distrust of his father. vote. His dad's harshness to these sons led to their weakness, which in turn contributed to Shiv's willful and complimented character.
K listened to the story of two war dogs in his childhood. The weaker one is alluding to Roman. After the no-confidence vote, Roman is no longer a frontline in K’s mind. The second half of the story It may be the blackening of k after the allusion, "you drive away the weaker one, so that everyone knows who is the boss", but I do not agree with k uniting with competitors to destroy the old man. Diluting the family equity to rescue the company's financial crisis, in my opinion, is already wrong.
However, maybe this is because of the environment of this home, no one can be blamed. Let’s take a look at the two rivals on the opposite side. A young pharmacist took advantage of K’s anxiety and brought the competitor’s equity into the family business. The old and the young are ready to join hands to overthrow the family through the binding of interests. Instead, they are more like father and son. . .
And Roman, as I said before, sometimes has ideas, but has no courage. On the contrary, it is a bit like a three-year-old kid who pleases his father. He doesn't know what he will be like in the end. But to be honest, if the roy family industry can survive this era of raging Internet trends, Roman may play a role, but at present, he is still too tender and pretending to be fierce (● ̄(エ) ̄● )
At the end of the party in this episode, K ran into Roman when he went out. On the slightly bright and cold street, 5 people each waited to walk on their own path. Many people chose to follow the rules, such as mr.DARCY, and at the end of the film. In some of the exciting tunes, K finally ushered in some changes, but for good or for bad, to usher in the dawn of his own victory, or to enter another tiger's mouth, I am a little looking forward to the next episode.
Maybe K finally realized that there is no family or friends in the market, and profit is everything (ps I really think K is a little bit mad. It is a bit too much to unite opponents).

Episode 7 started as a family farce. In the end, the old man finally told the truth, but no one wanted to believe or try to think about this relationship, and the old man didn’t want to communicate further. It’s already very good to be able to say these things. Not easy.
Just like in the end no one wants to believe that their father is willing to try to learn to swim or go into the water to swim, even if he can swim well, so the old man never wants to say a word about this. I remember a close-up of the old man’s hand gesture on the dining table when he was young. It was a very powerful "stop" and "its done" gesture. The old man has always been such a person, and may never explain it.
The establishment of a bloody dynasty, a bloody dynasty change, or a bloody crash, no one can say now, but everything will be no more graceful, just like a healer trying to understand this family, this family The madman will not tell you that jumping out of the pool will knock you bloody, and the reef is at the bottom. Be careful of your bottoming posture.
~6~
The theme of episode 6 was a vote of no confidence, and as a result, various counsels went online. .
The whole drama is about a strong old man and a few cowardly men who do little moves behind their backs who dare not face upright confrontation. They are not evenly matched and don’t seem to have any feeling. The old man always feels that he is at the end of a strong crossbow, he is already shaky, and the child wants to change. The company’s strategy, but I don’t know when and what to do. For example, choosing to sell the company’s shares was the next move. Everyone’s unanimous idea should be to retain the controlling rights of the family. As long as the shares cannibalize, this step is actually dangerous.
For a few babies, roman is smart enough to have a good vision, but he is really too embarrassed. He must have a strong leader with him, but K is also embarrassed. . . I think only Shiv is a little bit less persuaded, but he is not on this path, and he is also a stubborn master, surrounded by a group of fools (you can see from her husband’s eyes)
If there is no young person who can stand up in this family in the end, it will be the cannon fodder on the market in the end, sitting and watching the day when the business empire is falling apart, or if one of the children can be transformed, it is already progress if you dare to do this. But it's still far
