In the past, the lawyer dramas on the screen emphasized the professionalism of the law and focused on the ideal color, which always made people a little foggy, "Fearless" restored the appearance of the lawyer industry in the workplace outside the court game from multiple angles, and unveiled the realistic background under the glamorous coat of legal people.

Although the story framework of "Fearless" magnifies the aura of the protagonist in pursuit of dramatic effect, the work is based on realistic themes, and the rich flesh and blood of real life produce a convincing effect. At the beginning of the plot, the reality of the workplace in the lawyer industry was revealed: in order to expand the source of cases, a well-known law firm recruited the daughter of the director of the Development and Reform Commission of the Development Zone into the firm to "provide for it", and the directors of each department competed to invite the "God of Wealth" when the newcomers were assigned; The lawyers of the plaintiff and the defendant met, bargaining for damages related to the defendant's life and death, and on the other hand, they each thought about how they could make more commissions from it, as if they were "turning the law into a business"; In the face of the lack of contract spirit of the party to ask for a refund, the lawyer had no choice but to "draw a big pie" and "flicker" the lawyer's fee back...

Workplace portrayals full of spicy irony abound in the play. The heroine Luo Yingzi entered the law firm to become a trainee lawyer, but found that the work was not as simple as imagined, according to the regulations, the trainee lawyer had to independently undertake 5 cases in order to reach the threshold of becoming a practicing lawyer, and the director Lao Han dismembered each case into several parts, so that different trainee lawyers could take care of each other, setting up obstacles for changing practice, so that he could continue to control the apprentices, and he could also control the distribution of lawyer fees and squeeze the value of trainee lawyers. The trainee lawyers who were controlled were obedient to Lao Han, and they added fuel to the fire when they saw their female colleagues being harassed. These episodes may not be particularly new in general urban workplace dramas, but the performance of the working life of legal people in lawyer dramas is particularly dazzling.
