fan master said: it's time for the show!
During the Spring Festival, Fan recommended a lot of dramas to everyone, one of which is "Billions" (English name: Billions) that was introduced before. When the
fan brushed himself, he found that the fourth season has been updated. The ratings are good at home and abroad, and the fifth season has been renewed. So let’s write about it again today~ The episode of
has been very exciting since the first season. It tells the story of a Wall Street financial crocodile and a US federal prosecutor tit-for-tat. It involves a lot of high IQ duel, which makes people watch. Very enjoyable.
Later, the war between the two gradually escalated and intensified. In the second half and the first half of the third season, it has been fighting to the death and the life, and both lose and lose.
However, in the second half of season 3, there was a turning point in the plot-because two incompatible people were stabbed in the back by their respective men and faced a crisis. So in the last episode of the season, the two "enemies" decided to temporarily truce, and sat down at a dinner table, working together.
▲ Ms. is the prosecutor’s wife and one of the important allies. The following will introduce
. This time, the fourth season of the fan brush during the Spring Festival, will undertake the above plot, mainly around the capital predators and the political and legal elites The battle for revenge begins. Although
has lost the tit-for-tat between the two of them this season, it is still quite enjoyable to see them revealing information to each other like comrades-in-arms, using the resources in each other's hands to fight against powerful "foreign enemies".
What's more, there are other highlights in this season, such as the more prominent and distinctive female roles, as well as the well-known American investor Mark Cuban and NBA star Durant appearing in person.
In addition, Fuhuadao is still as good as ever, so many fans can't help but ask.
has even become a trend to wear some characters, so that Showtime, the producer of "Billions", specially launched the Billions store, selling clothes related to the series or inspired by the series.
Among them, Fan found that there is a vest in "Billions", a more brilliant male character Dollar Bill (a PM of Wall Street hedge funds) wears "work clothes", the restoration degree is not bad Called 100%, I recommended it to the fans around me in one second...(/ω\)
▲ "Axe Capital" is written on the left chest, which is the name of a Wall Street hedge fund
. For this, they also I will continue to ask Fan Master if he can tell me about the outfits and lifestyles of some of the main characters in the play, so let’s have an issue today~
*Reminder: The following contains some spoilers. If you are "allergic" to this, please Consider what you eat...
------- dividing line-------
1. [Male Lead]
First, let’s take a look at the two that are very eye-catching since the first season. A male lead.
1. Dressed "low-key" and lived a high-profile wealthy Bobby
. The first is a financial tycoon named Bobby Axelrod. Fan Zhu specially introduced before that the character is a self-made, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, both for himself and his enemies. The cruel man.
After the occurrence of 9.11, he can take advantage of everyone's shock and sorrow to make a fortune by burying their heads in shorts, and for revenge, regardless of the feelings of those around him, they can use or design them to achieve their goals.
▲ Rebecca, Bobby's girlfriend
in season 4 is such a ruthless character. He is not fabricated out of thin air. He has a realistic prototype. He is worth $13.7 billion and is ranked 101st among the world's richest people (by Forbes statistics) on Wall Street. Fund legend Steve Cohen.
Although the two are not completely "duplicated", some plots are indeed quite similar to Steve's experience, and Bobby's daily image is also infinitely close to this financial tycoon, completely different from everyone's impression of Hua in suits and shoes.Street Elite
▲ Left, the movie "Wall Street" stills; right, "Billions" Bobby
so that even the major financial newspaper "The Wall Street Journal" (The Wall Street Journal) also wrote articles about the male protagonist’s dressing style. An article "How to Dress Like a Billionaire" (How to Dress Like a Billionaire)...
So, how does this financial tycoon dress?
Thousands of "basic models"
In fact, Bobby dresses very "simple". Nothing else, it’s the casual style throughout. It’s so "low-key" that people can’t see where he has money on the surface...
For example, since the first season, almost all basic base T-shirts + even Hoodie with casual pants. The styles of
are very similar. For example, some clothes are only in the same style and different colors (like the bottoming shirt in the picture below), and some may be worn back and forth (like the hoodie in the picture below)
. Even the color is very stable. Pure color, arranged and combined between dark blue, black, white, gray, etc...
occasionally wears a patterned dress, still printed with Motorhead, a British heavy metal band T-shirt, which looks like some kind of peripheral Products...
In addition, shoes are also very grounded. From Puma to Nike
to New Balance, from the brand point of view, they are all accessible to the public and buy everyday, not very remote.
However, these are just appearances. Don't look at Bobby's clothes seemingly effortless, but he has already shown his identity as a bigwig invisibly.
After all, the basic hoodies without Logo mentioned above actually come from the Italian luxury cashmere brand Loro Piana. The same style can be sold in China at up to 10 thousand per piece
and his casual style. It is the style that the rich people of Forbes like today. From Bezos (bezos before, he seems to have changed his style when he is in love now...) to Jack Ma, they often perform top-ups.
In addition, although Bobby usually dresses "casually", people actually wear big-name suits on formal occasions, such as attending important company events, appearances, etc., from Armani to handmade custom Cifonelli suits worth RMB 50,000. Not to mention.
Hao watches luxury cars, two private jets, although
is not well-dressed, but the rich man’s other equipment matches him. For example, judging from the current plot development, Bobby has at least three watches. The
piece is Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore (Ref. 26400SO.OO.A335CA.01), and the camouflage design is pretty cool. It is understood that this will give an extra pure blue rubber strap. The domestic public price is now 251,000, but the global limit is 400. If you want to buy it, you may have to try your luck~
He has worn clothes of different colors and patterns, and seems to like it very much.
Bobby also wore another piece of Audemars Piguet, which is a steel watchband version of the Royal Oak. It is very classic and once very difficult to buy, but it has been discontinued. This model has appeared in the previous few seasons, the style is more mature and stable than the previous one, and the blue dial is pretty nice.
In addition, Bobby also wore a watch from the Cartier sports car series. The official website price is about 60,000 yuan. It looks elegant and dynamic, and it is very versatile. No wonder he has worn it for a whole season... With the
trench table, luxury cars are naturally indispensable. Land Rover, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley, there are cars ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions.
Faced with a Mercedes-Benz worth 132,000 US dollars. After a test drive, it must be no problem to ask for two cars in one breath. One will be kept by yourself and the other will be given to your girlfriend.
In addition, private jets such as Gulfstream are even more indispensable, with at least two starting. One is for personal use or the company uses
and the other is for my wife (now my ex-wife), so that we can be busy with each other and not delay each other's schedule and time.
and helicopters and yachts are all indispensable.
Live in a top-floor mansion, buy dozens of famous paintings at random, and enter the celebrity circle
In addition to the above, in daily life, Bobby also shows what a billionaire should be.
For example, after being single was restored, he lived in a top-floor mansion in New York City, which was worth 45 million U.S. dollars (about 300 million yuan) in 2017, with direct elevator access, with its own sky garden, and you can see the beautiful architectural landscape.
continues to collect art, such as Picasso and other masters, one is not cheap. Like the "Boy with a Pipe" mentioned in Season 4, it was once auctioned for a sky-high price of 104 million U.S. dollars (this was the auction price in 2004)
but it was just one of them. People bought it if they didn’t agree. There were almost 20 pictures (actually 18, which Bobby later corrected himself). Not only the price was high, but the taxes even cost more than 70 million U.S. dollars...
In addition, the rich people love sports, Bobby also has. I wanted to buy a football team very much before, but unfortunately the deal was not done, but the exclusive box on the stadium is indispensable (Arthur Ashe Stadium is the center court where the US Open is held)
and famous NBA stars are mixed friends There is nothing wrong with it. After all, in addition to simply "chasing stars", sometimes they also need to give them some "benefits" to those they want to win, such as recording a video celebrating the coming-of-age ceremony for the child.
In addition, the so-called "beautiful food and music can not be ignored", it is normal to invite various chefs and cooking masters to cook directly at home
▲ But wealthy and powerful guests say that they are not so extravagant
or even In order to listen to a Metallica (well, the heavy metal band that breaks in the real world) concert, the private jet was used directly to go straight to Canada. The lead singer of the band, James Hetfield, also deliberately "started a small stove" for him before the opening. This treatment is not something everyone can get.
2. Looking at the naive, but stern Attorney General Chuck
after talking about the capital crocodile, let’s take a look at his opponent-the former attorney for the Southern District of New York (fired in season 3), and now the New York State Attorney General (There is a translator called the Attorney General, in the fourth season of the campaign) Chuck Rhoades.
Don't look at his sleek body, a bit naive, but in fact he is also an easy man. Backed by an old father with money and political resources, he graduated from Yale and is an elite of political and legal circles with high intelligence.
used to like to smash Wall Street rich men like Bobby, and do whatever it takes to achieve goals, such as using friends, fathers, wives, etc. Fan felt that there is a sense of "Bobby in politics and law".
▲ The appearance of gritted teeth is quite scary...
As a political and legal person, Chuck has always looked like a suit and leather. And maybe because of a good family background, he knows a lot about suits. He can tell at a glance that the other party is wearing Brioni
and knows what fabric suits he should wear in what weather.
▲ He was in the Cayman Islands
at the time, and his dressing habits were slightly changed according to his situation. For example, Fan found that in the first three seasons (when he was not fired), Chuck most often wore a dark three-piece suit, which was readily available. The reason why
is dressed like this, Fan feels that on the one hand, his belly needs to be "modified", on the other hand, or more importantly, this way makes him look powerful and imposing, just like a good one Like hunters who are ready to sniper their prey at any time, their force and combat effectiveness are both max.
z0It's just that in season 4, he once lost his status and power, and he no longer wears that way. After a season, his styles are almost all shirts + suits that are common in the workplace, and the whole person seems "soft" a lot.At the same time, compared to the previous seasons, the tie colors and patterns are quite rich. This season, he wears blue tie most of the time, which makes people feel less aggressive. The
fan felt that this change was due to Chuck being ousted by his subordinates and boss at the end of the third season, and even if he became the attorney general in the fourth season, he was suppressed by power. On the other hand, it was possible. It is because he needs a "vest" to confuse the outside world in order to better deal with those who have stabbed the knife in secret.
Apart from dressing, Chuck's daily life has not changed much. Although I can usually drive a Porsche to commute to and from get off work
, but because of too much work and brain-consuming, it may be late when I get home. I can only eat a microwave-heated spaghetti pad to cushion my stomach and open a bottle of wine for comfort.
However, this season Chuck's relationship has experienced a big break. Because he has been playing SM with his wife at home, in order to succeed in the campaign, he directly told the media and the public this secret side
, and his wife Wendy (an important woman we will introduce next) felt extremely A lot of shame, embarrassment and discomfort, and thus unable to continue the original days, the road to marriage is facing a situation where it cannot go on.
2. [Ladies' articles]
After introducing the two main male characters, let's take a look at two important ladies.
1. Wendy, a powerful woman with both sexiness and strength. First of all, let me introduce Wendy, who was just mentioned. She is a career woman with both talents and appearance and both high quotient.
She has multiple identities, one is the wife of Attorney General Chuck and the mother of two children. The second is the performance coach and head of human resources of the financial tycoon Bobby. He is also a friend and partner of Bobby for many years.
's original character design may make Wendy difficult to be a man like a sandwich biscuit. But she is a very wise woman, loyal to family and friends, and knows how to be cruel when she is cruel.
Under normal circumstances, she will use the knowledge of psychology and other aspects to try her best to help her husband and friends make suggestions separately, and try to mediate in the middle to find ways to solve the problem.
But when a crisis comes, she will arm herself instantly, come up with the most accurate strategy to fight the enemy, break the crisis-even if it will cause others to go to jail, or family breakdown and other consequences.
In order to create such a strong and attractive woman, Wendy's dress has always been both business and sexy, and implies power.
For example, she wears a lot of slim dresses, pencil skirts, leggings, etc., wrapping herself in exquisite and curved lines.
At the same time, from skirts to tops, there are some chic designs on the neckline or sleeves, which look fashionable, but not too exaggerated. (There are data showing that many of her skirts are from designer brands that play a lot of deconstruction. Roland Mouret).
also has some role-plays that are slightly related to her and her husband Chuck, such as bandages and other related elements, which correspond to the person.
In addition, a lot of her skirts are black, so in addition to looking sexy, she also looks a bit uncomfortable and aggressive.
from trousers to coats, as well as bags from YSL and other big brands,
is occasionally adjusted in blue, dark green, magenta and other colors. Generally speaking, they are mature, charming, tough and atmospheric women. Strongman image.
In the choice of jewelry and watches, Wendy's "orientation" is similar to that of clothes, both classic workplace and fashionable styles.
For example, she will wear classicsThe Bulgari Divas' Dream series, the iconic fan shape is elegant and versatile, and the hollow design adds more aura.
will also wear relatively niche jewelry such as Vita Fede, Vale Jewellry, Catbird, etc., which are unique and interesting in shape and refreshing.
In addition, she seems to wear the same square watch all the time, which looks similar to Cartier's Tank series from the screenshots, and is very suitable for a wise woman like Wendy.
In life, because Wendy works in a hedge fund, the salary and dividends are very good, so the cost and wear are more consistent, and they have a certain level and taste.
For example, she had been driving a Maserati (from Bobby) before, but it was only sold in Season 3 for some reason.
later changed to an Alfa Romeo car, which is a famous Italian car and sports car manufacturer, which is also a good brand.
Wendy also has a good eye on the home furnishings. For example, in season 4, she accompanied Bobby’s rival Taylor (she will be introduced later) to buy furniture. The shop is Poliform, which is an Italian high-end furniture brand with a simple and low-key style. And luxurious, it feels like the style of the elite and rich.
2. Super IQ, Taylor
who is facing the financial crocodile. Next, let's take a look at another female character who promotes the story. She is Taylor who looks A burst.
▲ Fan said that this hairstyle is not something ordinary people can hold...
This is a role that has appeared since the second season. Because of its super high IQ and unique vision, it is highly appreciated by Bobby. He was once a core member of Bobby Company. In the absence of the Lord, lead the entire team to continue investing and making money.
However, the relationship between the two appeared in the second half of the third season, and finally because Taylor poached Bobby's investors and set up his own business and officially broke. In the fourth season of
, the two began to fight their wits in the financial field, each with their own wins and losses, so that in the end even Bobby admitted that she was a respectable opponent and wanted to recall Taylor to his subordinates.
In the eyes of many netizens, including Fan Zhu, Taylor is actually a bit like a robot. She is calm and rational. She likes to reach the extreme (or maximize the benefits), but she is also very ambitious and is a very special existence.
and Taylor's clothes are indeed very personal. For example, almost always "tomboy" style, completely neutral shirt and suit, sometimes wear a tie
occasionally wear a vest, and a little Boss feel...
usually wear trousers, leather shoes, black coat, black gloves and Cuntou is really cool and handsome. Although
could not find the brand of her clothing temporarily, Taylor's watch appeared in the third season. At that time, she walked into Patek Philippe's shop as if shopping, and took away a rose gold 5270R perpetual calendar chronograph in one minute. The quotation given in the
drama is 164,400 US dollars (about 1.15 million yuan), while the domestic quotation is 1.18 million yuan, but production has been discontinued in 2018.
arrived in season 4, Taylor gave everyone a big surprise at the beginning.
Because she put on a wig and a dress to meet customers from Arabia, and she made a 180-degree transformation
Although her walking movements and expressions did not change much, she was inexplicably cold and glamorous. The feeling of a woman caused the netizens to explode. Fan also took a few glances to confirm that this is really her...
Taylor's daily life matches her personality very well. For example, she is very passionate about cutting-edge technology and travels. One of the idols of Tesla
is the president of a technology company who planned to sit on his own rocket.Empty, but unfortunately on the way... (The Patek Philippe watch she bought earlier is the same as the CEO)
Taylor usually likes to participate in games like tournaments and other activities that test IQ
The office decoration has an industrial style, neat and simple , Direct, consistent with her dressing style and preferred investment strategy
At the same time, the art paintings hanging behind the desk also fit her aesthetics. It is a work from artist Jaq Chartier, which uses color to simulate DNA sequences.
Finally, Taylor's fitness method is quite special, which is Tai Chi. Fan Zhu thinks this may be because Tai Chi can help her regulate her emotions and breathing, and keep her calm. At the same time, the profound Chinese culture contained in it and the supernatural realm make her very interested in her IQ and the pursuit of the ultimate.
--------I am the dividing line at the end---------
said so much, the main characters of the fourth season of "Billions" are roughly introduced.
Of course, in the hearts of some fans, there should be other roles that are also very important. For example, this season's rich female, and Bobby's girlfriend Rebecca.
She is a strong woman with a successful career. She has invested in many companies. She is resolute and clear-headed. She attracted Bobby almost as soon as she appeared on the stage. It is often a bottoming shirt + a small suit, with jeans, very capable.
has always been wearing a suspected Hermès watch, generous and decent, but unfortunately the last two people broke off, I don’t know if they will continue to appear in the next season...
Except for her, Bobby’s who appeared from the first season Good friends, and important members of the company Wags, are also a role that cannot be ignored. The hairline of
is worrying. He is good at playing and wavering, and has always been a good hand to win customers. Although they always wear suits and shirts, they tend to be casual and pay attention to details. The color of pocket squares is often the same as that of shirts.
What is rare is that this season, a man disguised himself as a woman because he was cheated to participate in the KBP activities of the Financial Brotherhood. Only the top elites of Wall Street can participate in this club. An old custom is to attend in different costumes...
In addition, the former lover of Attorney General Chuck, Bryan Connerty, is also a man who has been active since the first season. He was promoted in the fourth season of
. He originally fought alongside Chuck, but later, because he was dissatisfied with Chuck's unscrupulous efforts to achieve his goal, he began to investigate and deal with his master, feeling like "I want to maintain justice." These changes of
Bryan are cleverly reflected in his tie. Before he was promoted, his tie always resembled the color of the American flag. Blue, red and white, or blue as the main tone, echoed the colors of the suits he often wears.
But after he was promoted, he wore more red neckties as the main tune, and he looked "high-spirited" a lot.
In the end, the employees in Bobby are quite unique, but they are more similar in aesthetics. For example, they all like to wear plaid shirts. I feel that the plaid wardrobes from 4 seasons can compete with programmers.
