Li Sen in the urban drama "City in the City" is indeed a narrow-minded villain who can't tolerate people better than him.
After Li Sen was unexpectedly promoted to president, his mentality changed dramatically.
The colleagues who used to fight alongside him are now potential threats in his eyes.
Among them, Zhao Hui, the influential vice president in the past, has become a thorn in his side.
01
So, in order to suppress Zhao Hui, Li Sen used all his strengths, from decomposing power to transferring performance, to finding someone to replace him, the means can be described as exhaustive.
At the same time, Li Sen also lured Su Jianren, who was already in conflict with Zhao Hui, by "painting a big pie", so that Su Jianren hid in the dark and kept reporting Zhao Hui's "black material"
However, Zhao Hui is a character that should not be underestimated.
This man is not only capable and courageous, but also has a hidden scheming.
Faced with Li Sen's suppression, and speculated that it was Su Jianren who helped Li Sen make a move, Zhao Hui did not rush to fight back, but chose to endure it.
In Zhao Hui's view, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, not to mention that it is undoubtedly stupid to expose your strength prematurely without being completely sure.
Sure enough, when Li Sen and Su Jianren thought that the victory was in their hands, and Zhao Hui had been suspended by the Commission for Discipline Inspection and was unable to return to the sky, Zhao Hui quietly began his counterattack.
02
A seemingly ordinary photo, a father-son relationship that no one knows, instantly knocked Su Jianren into the abyss of no return.
This vice president, who has been in the banking industry for many years, was dismissed from his post in this way, and his reputation was discredited for a while.
And his son Cheng Jiayuan was also returned by the audit department and returned to the business hall again to do counter work
Looking at Su Jianren's tragic situation, Li Sen began to panic.
He knew that the relationship between himself and Su Jianren was gone, and the next target was likely to be himself.
However, the selfish Li Sen did not choose to confront Zhao Hui head-on, but chose to escape.
Li Sen thought that he would be able to escape in this way, but he didn't expect that Zhao Hui would not let him go easily.
In the following days, Zhao Hui and others began to operate against Li Sen.
They knew that Li Sen's affair was his weakness, so they used this to secretly take intimate photos of him and his lover at the bar.
This time, Leeson's reputation was damaged like never before.
He had to face the reality: his position was already in jeopardy, and all this was thanks to Zhao Hui.
03
In this seemingly simple power struggle, Zhao Hui shows his ruthless and unscrupulous side.
In order to achieve his goal, he not only used Zhou Lin, who loved him deeply, but also put Tao Wuji, who had always regarded him as a role model, in an embarrassing situation.
When Cheng Jiayuan knew the truth about his father Su Jianren's loss of his position, he angrily punched Tao Wuji.
Because in Cheng Jiayuan's view, it was Tao Wuji who betrayed their father-son relationship, which led to Su Jianren's downfall.
However, Tao Wuji didn't know anything about it.
He was "betrayed" by his best friend, and his heart was full of doubts and pain.
He began to question why his predecessor Zhao Hui, who he once regarded as light, became what he is today.
Where did the upright, visionary, and responsible Zhao Hui go?
Tao Wuji couldn't accept this fact, it was the first time that the model in his heart had such a serious flaw.
04
Although Zhao Hui seems to have won the battle by a big margin, did he really win?
Perhaps he temporarily gained the upper hand in the Game of Thrones, but he lost something more precious.
He had lost the trust of his best friend, Miao Che, who had fought alongside him in the past, had become disillusioned with him.
He has also lost his inheritance and downfall, and Tao Wuji, who once regarded him as light, is now on the verge of breaking with him.
What's more, he also lost his affectionate lover Zhou Lin, because in order to bring down Su Jianren and Li Sen, he did not hesitate to take advantage of Zhou Lin's feelings and pushed her to the opposite side.
Behind this seemingly simple power struggle is actually human and moral considerations.
Although Zhao Hui won a temporary victory, he lost more precious things: trust, friendship and love.
And once these things are lost, it is difficult to get them back.
At the same time, Tao Wuji and Cheng Jiayuan, although they have experienced pain and misunderstanding, they will eventually come out of the haze.
Tao Wuji will re-examine his values and life goals, and Cheng Jiayuan will also grow from this blow and become stronger and more mature.
