When I was watching this drama, the picture of "Ode to Joy" would pop out of my mind unnaturally. It may be that the perspectives of both dramas are urban women.
The show's three main characters, drawn from three different age groups, are elite women from the middle and upper classes, each of them encountering different problems, because of a financial accident, suddenly Diane loses her shares and her savings are destroyed. Qing; Diane joined Lucca's law firm and stole Lucca's original position; Maia, a rich second generation, was at the center of this financial accident and was cast aside by her surroundings. However, they did not rely on others, relying on their own will and persistence, using their own wisdom, to start a new career again. The supporting roles in it are also very good. In order to get the position of assistant, Marissa took an unusual path to prove her ability.
The common denominator between "The Greatest Battle" and "Ode to Joy" is that several women encounter problems and solve them. "Ode to Joy" has a total of 5 women, from five different classes, the turtle Andy, the rich second generation Qu Xiaoxiao, the human resource Fan Shengmei, the top 500 Guanguan, and the migrant worker Qiu Yingying, they all have their own corresponding Different levels of life also have their own little troubles. Among them, the characters of Fan Shengmei and Guan Guan on the opposite side are the best in my opinion, because the problems they face seem to be like that. The thirty-year-old Fan Shengmei is worried about marrying a rich man. Understand the unspoken rules of the workplace. As for the portrayal of Andy and Qu Xiaoxiao, I personally feel a bit broken. Andy is almost omnipotent, yes, maybe a woman like her has a smooth journey, so the screenwriter forcibly added the link where she has a mentally handicapped brother in order to let her survive the calamity. Without this mentally handicapped brother, she herself would not be able to. Will there be any problems? Qu Xiaoxiao is even worse. She can look down on and criticize the three "poor girls" unscrupulously. She always reveals her dislike to them. She needs to prove herself to her father, okay, call Andy and ask. Just get it done. After playing abroad for a few years, she can suddenly focus on her career, understand the unspoken rules of the workplace, and what she needs to know, just a phone call away. There is no contract that cannot be signed, and there is no handsome guy that cannot be soaked. When I saw the middle part, I thought that Qu Xiaoxiao would have a big somersault in the back, but it didn't, her love and career were blooming. Of course, I haven't experienced it and I don't understand it. Maybe the life of the rich second generation is so smooth.
So this involves a problem: the three views. In some places, I feel that the three views of "Ode to Joy" are problematic, and there is often a feeling that money is paramount. And it is at this point that it is separated from the competition with "The Battle of the Bone". Dinae, whose assets are frozen, hopes to continue living in a luxury apartment. She is not even willing to bow her head to her ex-husband and chooses to make efforts in her career. Originally, the value of money should have become the most outstanding and interesting place in "Ode to Joy", but it is a pity. I hope this year's "Ode to Joy" can come back in the second season.
In addition, "Battle of the Bone" is also a legal drama. The third episode is only 50 minutes long, and it has been reversed many times. It may be the best episode of the season.
