Netflix recently launched a new drama, which has become a topic C bit and a ratings darling.
It is worthy of her, and she has not stopped her influence after being imprisoned.
She is the protagonist of the 2017 sensational "New York Kana Scam", Anna Solokin.
Anna turned the upper class of the rich around, Wall Street elites, top architects, rich second generation...
It even spread to a domestic collector, Huang Xunfu, who booked a plane ticket and a hotel but did not give her money, and interviewed him.
Even in prison, she did not forget to create her resume as a social queen, and was busy writing her own autobiography.
The play is based on a true story about her.
Interestingly, the testimonies of the celebrities and rich people who had been deceived by Anna reflected a colorful Vanity Fair chaos.
In front of Anna, those "spelling singles and pseudonyms" all look too elementary school students.
Don't be in a hurry to deny Anna.
The anna presented in this play is more interesting than just giving her a coffin and concluding as a "liar".
Anna in the eyes of high society
In reality, Anna has no charm in appearance, even if she carefully dresses up every time she appears in court to maintain her "celebrity" style.
But who cares.
You can say that Anna is very deep into the play, until death vanity.
But the upper classes ate this set.
The real Anna is a penniless liar.
When Vivian, the reporter in the film, went to interview the rich people, the common understanding was that Anna seemed to be born rich.
Val, a man who works in the fashion industry, has this to say about Anna:
She seems to be born with good taste.
Know what kind of things to do on what occasion.
How to choose red wine, which restaurant to eat at, what kind of clothes to wear.
She never shivered.
And do not care about other people's opinions, behavior and attitude.
In Val's view, Anna herself was high society.
And she seems to have the ability to penetrate the hearts of high-class people, and can accurately sell different dreams and emotions.
Of course, upper-class people are not so easy to deceive.
Anna must come up with a more powerful aura than the upper class, a more mean mentality, in order to be convincing.
Under her molding, she is Anna Delvi, the heir to the family.
But in order to make her self-sufficient, her father set her a trust fund of 60 million euros that she could get after the age of 25.
She has money and has no reservations about money.
The rich in New York are also rarely like her, tipping the waiter a hundred at a time.
There are the tastes that the leisure class has valued most since ancient times, and she is even more handy than they are.
For example, a sharp and original review made the real celebrity change direction and buy a work worth 500,000 US dollars.
She has a mean attitude and a super aura, which can easily shock the hearts of diehards.
The upper class is impregnable, and what is needed to walk in it is connections and referrals.
When she got her ticket to networking, she began to peddle her great business plans.
She networked the perfect board of consultants with top architects, collectors, and premier real estate tycoons.
To make this great plan happen, she needed to raise $40 million.
At this time, she knocked on the door of Allen, a Wall Street investment consultant.
The first few times he refused, until Anna saw his weakness - he had a daughter who didn't learn anything but wanted to make a name for himself.
After taking Down Allen, everything became logical.
Alan even vouched for her, borrowing 200,000 dollars to guarantee it.
In his opinion, this is a profitable business, even if you don't make money now, you can make a lot of money in the future.
Fortunately, Anna was dragging her girlfriends to Morocco for a vacation at this time.
Her cards couldn't be swiped, and her friend Rachel had to take the company's card to swipe sixty thousand dollars.
If, as usual, she deceived the rich, then sixty thousand yuan would be lost to the rich at best.
But Rachel herself is a small white-collar worker who likes to eat and drink, and sixty thousand yuan is enough to bankrupt her.
Rachel also wrote her story into Vanity Fair, and Anna finally went to jail and was sentenced to 4-12 years in prison.
In fact, at this time, her financing was only the last step, and the bank needed to go to Germany to find her father and the trust fund to verify the assets.
But how could this be true.
After all, what the upper class cares most about is actually the family lineage, and Anna, who has no family lineage, is nothing.
Is she a liar, or an ambitious dreamer?
Vivian, the reporter who reported on Anna, ran to Anna's hometown at the end to verify.
It turned out that Anna was indeed an ordinary child, and her taste aura was self-packaging after touching the American dream.
She spends a lot of time reading fashion magazines and learning about fashion, and the mosaics on the walls show her ambitions.
She has the magic of making her classmates scramble to win her attention.
And the people around her could not bear her ambitions.
Even Anna has forgotten her real family, lying in a hospital bed after a failed suicide, still imagining her family lineage:
His father is a gangster, and he can't stand domestic violence before he flees...
As a result, she did not suffer domestic violence and did not have so many grievances.
Anna's evolution, in the words of journalist Vivian, is more like the alienation caused by capitalism.
And those who were deceived by her also had more or less their own weaknesses.
Boyfriend Tyson is middle-class and is starting a business, and it turns out that the power to brag about is greater than the actual operation.
Nora, a rich woman who has been deceived by her for 400,000, is very arrogant herself, looks down on people, and even if she is deceived, she does not want to call the police.
Val, who works in the fashion industry, likes to distinguish between good and bad by taste.
In a word, she pierced through the glitz of high society.
No one cares who this person is, they only care about this person's family background, the logo on their body, and what they can bring to each other.
One of the interesting things about this play is that anyone who deals with her will be more or less fascinated by her.
Because they saw their ambitious selves in her.
Rachel, a journalist who is pregnant and runs around trying to create a unique and authentic report.
Lawyers who have survived from the commoners to the middle and married the daughter of a tycoon still feel uncomfortable in the rich place.
And the lobby customer service that secretly stores up for the dream.
Anna, on the other hand, is the ambitious girl who almost broke the class ceiling.
It is also the warriors who mock the powerful in their eyes, the wise people.
She is even different from the Tinder fraud king, the other party is raised by the appearance of packaging upper-class people, and the essence is still drilled into women's fantasies of love, which is easily implied.
And Anna really wants to break the class solidification, even if she is with her boyfriend, talking more about dreams.
Such a female liar with a clear bone and no love brain can only be defeated by more ruthless capital in the end.
It is not so much that vanity alienates Anna as it is that she is the embodiment of capitalism that alienates people.
Her desire was so strong that she even convinced herself.
She even changed the breath she exuded, she was hypocritical, mean and picky, more like a high person than a high person.
Who would sit in prison and still pick on someone else's figure when they are unable to protect themselves?
Before she appeared in court, she wasted a lot of time on her own styling, and even provoked the defense lawyer to be angry.
She fantasized about being famous, and really did as she wished, and her story was bought by Netflix for $320,000.
And the story in the film looks more flashy and more refined.
At the end of the day, this is yet another game in which capital wins.
As long as you have insight into the essence of human nature, you can always grasp the direction of the wind and deceive most people.
Anna's story is too much in line with this world.
