Max is the best trader in the financial district of London, gentleman's agreement is just a piece of paper for him, he can ignore it at any time, all he cares about is how to make more money; he is brave, bold, and By means, he swam on the edge of the law, earning $77 million for the company in minutes; when his then-mentor and boss took his first vacation, he robbed him of his job.

Max Skinner doesn't spend weekends; Max Skinner doesn't take vacations; Max Skinner just makes money. This is how Max's only friend in London described him.

That's Max's role in London, a tireless money-making machine.

When the news of Max's uncle's death came, we saw that the machine, which had dominated the financial world in London, was also depressed and slept through the night, but the next day he was full of energy to deal with his uncle's estate.

When the picture moves from the dark and cold London city to the sunny suburb of Provans, we can't help but feel relaxed and happy. On the winding mountain road, Max drives his high-tech car back and forth, reaching a paradise like a paradise. The manor of Shilok, Shirok Manor, when visiting the manor, the memories in Max's mind began to emerge one by one, playing tennis with his uncle, diving in the swimming pool, and making wine in the cellar...all of which were good childhood days. 's memories.

By accident, Max had to spend his first vacation at the manor, where he played tennis with grape farmer Duflo, served as a waiter for the fascinated Fanny, and attended dinner parties... · ·All of this makes his fast pace of life in London slow down, and he can think about the value of life.

Back in London again, Max has more enthusiasm for people, more respect for people, and more importantly, more understanding of life. Facing the choice between life and Qian Quan, he chose life calmly and chose to return to the golden manor and green vineyard to enjoy life.

"The Lost Corner" is a mysterious, mellow and delicate wine that evokes the lost corner of Max's heart - Sherlock Manor. That place was the happiest place for young Max, because it was where a wise uncle taught him the great principles of life, an enlightened uncle toasted with him, and a lively uncle played cricket with him. These are all precious and beautiful memories of childhood, but in London, where everyone's heart is high, Max buried them all in the deepest corner of his heart and gradually forgotten.

The death of his uncle was undoubtedly a big blow to Max, but it was also an opportunity for Max to rediscover his life. At this time, he finally understood why his uncle liked England but lived in France, and why he liked dating but not a woman. Staying together for a long time, why not leave the radius of Shilok Manor. All this is because Uncle Henry understands that only Provence can give him the simplest and purest life, which is also the most beautiful life.

When Max realized this, he resolutely left the dark and cold, intriguing, materialistic, and intoxicated city, and returned to the sunny, simple, fresh, natural and carefree Proswang where he started his journey. simple life.

    Don't be like this. You can't say that the British must be snobbish and selfish, while the French must be charming and selfish. The scenery is beautiful, and the town is very idle. Unfortunately, don’t interpret it as "Just do it" and just quit your job and leave as long as you want. The protagonist is a middle-level financial company with a net worth of millions, and the heroine was once in the city. After working hard for several years, there is one self-operated shop. What the movie wants to say is: to be romantic, first waste; to have leisure, first have money
