Horseman Botek took in a poor Todd and never thought to help him, until one day, his gunman writer Diane reminded him that Todd needed encouragement, because she felt that Todd actually admired Horseman and relied on him. Ma Nan never thought that Todd was salvageable, and he never paid attention to his advantages, because in his eyes, Todd was a rogue who sneaked into his house while taking advantage of the party and didn't leave, but for the past 5 years, Todd has always been It will make him feel that he is not so worthless and lonely. Ma Nan's dark-bellied and self-righteous character makes him offend many people.
Todd was depraved, but rock musicals were an important turning point in his life. Horse Man enjoys the process as he helps Todd continue writing the rock musical. But he found that it all went too fast and too smoothly, because he didn't want to watch others grow faster than him until he was out of the bottom of his life.
There are some things that Ma Nan knew very well but couldn't do. Back then, he also received help from Herb to achieve his current achievements in his career. He still remembers it to this day, but he said the exact opposite to Todd, he said : Juniors like Todd should take care of the seniors in the circle. Ma Nan treats Todd like a part of his own property. This person cannot leave him voluntarily. Only he can decide this person's life. He is the Boss. But this kind of plot is still very interesting, maybe because it is true.
That's one of the reasons I feel sorry for Todd, he may have made a mistake the moment he picked the horse man.
Appreciating the value in his own hands, but since then it has not brought him any benefit. This kind of naked treatment of property is not allowed by a person like Ma Nan. Having said that, maybe as long as Todd can forgive Ma Nan, we will naturally feel nothing, at least Todd still has a place to live and eat and drink, but he has lost the right to be himself.
This cartoon is not suitable for children, and even if it is suitable, it will not be fully understood. If it is understood, it will only disappoint the world. After all, cartoons or movies have super functions that lead people to imitate. It tells us how to desire, as Žižek in The Pervert Movie Guide. I was worried that the children would imagine that they would be like Todd, thinking that as long as they had a backing, they would be satisfied with their food and clothing and occasionally play music. In life, there are a lot of people like Todd, I mean there are a lot of people who have a complex like Todd in their hearts.
Ma Nan and Todd are not a father-son relationship, nor are they purely friends. They are just partners who reach a consensus on some common interests. This is a kind of kidnapping in the modern employment relationship. He uses friends and interests to cover up exploitation. fact.

The moment Todd discovered this fact I thought he would abandon Ma Nan and live his life as a rock musical playwright, but he didn't!
The writer's explanation for this is.... . . . . . ,,,, I don't really remember much, Ma Nan should feel guilty, and he never gave up on Todd.
My understanding is that he has actually lived the "rich" life he wants, but he doesn't have much ideals, and he doesn't mind being occasionally regarded as a friend in his inferior days.
