The environment he was in included the bustling Qibao Street and the high-end central bank workplace. The role of
itself is a cross-class existence. Coming from a lower-class background, Wei Ruolai's interaction with his neighbors on Qibao Street reflects his simplicity and shyness that is inexperienced in the world. And he is smart enough. He is a talented financial talent who is extremely sensitive to numbers. He has shown his keenness, meticulousness and bravery in the workplace.
Wei Ruolai was carrying a piece of meat through the alley, but was forcefully taken away by Aunt Zhou to help her trade stocks. Aunt Zhou did not listen to her advice. After losing her living expenses for a year, she cried with distress, complained about Wei Ruolai, and scolded him all night long. It was obviously not Wei Ruolai's fault, but Wei Ruolai continued honestly and said that he would return the money to Aunt Zhou in the future and help her earn it back.
Wei Ruolai was hiding from Aunt Zhou, but Aunt Zhou had already figured it out on her own the next day. She was still thinking about Wei Ruolai's interview and sent him a decent coat. Wei Ruolai, who received extra care from Aunt Zhou, showed the shyness and emotion unique to a simple young man.

Wang Yang's acting skills are also quite good, and the rivalry between the two is quite interesting.

Because Shen Tunan's doting sister Shen Jinzhen (played by Li Qin) intends to get close to Wei Ruolai, which will change his destiny, or lead Wei Ruolai to the camp opposite to Shen Tunan.
Xu Nuo, played by Wang Xueqi, as the head of the underground party's Shanghai station, may become Wei Ruolai's future superior.
