This is not necessarily my type of drama but I'm enjoying it. The story grabs you from the start. The actors are good, the story is amazing. Not 2d characters. It's always hard to find well written strong women and this show has them. Have your handkerchief ready your going to need it. But it's worthed. I cannot stop watching. Wang Yibo is amazing on it. I believe this is one of his best roles yet. The seinor actors are also amazing they work together to make this story amazing. If they keep the quality going I'm pretty sure this would be one of the best dramas of this year. Give it a chance you won't regret it.

I really like this drama, with republic era style.

The plot of the drama is very interesting about financial strategy wars in the 30s era mixed with political interests in China.

Wei Ruolai (Wang Yibo), a financial genius who only wants to serve his country, is accidentally drawn into the war.

Shen TuNan ( WangYang) with his skilled financial strategies, succeeded in defeating his opponents who wanted to fight the government at that time, later he's become Wei RuoLai's Teacher.

While ShenJinZhen (LiQin) was actually a spy for the communist party who was trying to fight the government that time.

The cinematography is very beautiful.

The acting and visuals of the actors are very good. This drama is a must watch 👍

I have never watched a republican era drama... I have almost nil knowledge of Chinese history and i zero knowledge of capital market. That said.. this drama have all these aspects and i thoroughly enjoyed all 38 episodes. Each episode keeps you on the edge.

About Plot; The journey which began with the sparkly eyed poor mathematical genius, a 23 year old young boy called Wei Ruolai and his ambition leads to such a rollercoaster ride.

A very commendable mentor-mentee relationship which is the foundation of this story all built on their Mutua love and respect for each other and how it transforms over the years while both stick to their ideology believing that's what the people of China needs is the heart of the story.

I laughed, I cried, I had 6 people on my hitlist before 10th episodes.

This drama keeps the audience engaged ,where u feel for the characters, their pain their helplessness their anger feels like yours.

About Cast: Wang Yibo! What a commendable actor! Wang Yibo's interpretation of Wei Ruolai makes you root for him. You wait for his smile , you wanna slap the people who hurts him. He is that good! C-ent should be proud to have this young and extremely talented actor.

Wang Yang, Li Qin being the lead role in this series, they played their roles very well. Wang yang have that very polite intellectual who loves his family and his mentee and his country. He is the one who has to make choices most of the time and he has to fight the ones he love. Li Qin gave a powerful interpretation of young lady driven by the thought of doing good for her nation and she is ready to go to may extreme length for that.

All the supporting castes of this series played a very amazing role that each of them stays with u..

I can write a book about this story I guess and I will surely miss all of them!
