Among many domestic workplace dramas, "Ordinary Glory" is one of the few masterpieces that can get rid of "the skin of the workplace and the bone of love". In the whole broadcast process, "Ordinary Glory" has won the top spot in both Cat’s Eye and Tik Tok’s drama list. There is no story of diaosi counterattacking people’s hearts, and there is no vulgar routine in which the overbearing president of the workplace falls in love with me. However, the drama has remained quite hot since it closed on September 28.

With the update of "Ordinary Glory", many foreshadows buried in the play are also revealed one by one. The ending of the play always makes people sigh unexpectedly and reasonably. The first and biggest mystery under this drama is why Sun Yiqiu, a rookie in the workplace who graduated from high school, was able to enter Jinchen Capital, a famous investment group.

According to the characters set in the previous episodes, Sun Yiqiu had the talent of playing Go since childhood and devoted himself to becoming a national player with the encouragement and support of his father. Because he put most of his time and energy into Go in the early stage, his academic performance was not very satisfactory. After graduating from high school, he didn’t pass the Go entry exam, and he didn’t pass the college entrance examination to enter the university. Since then, Sun Yiqiu has given up Weiqi and made a living by sending couriers and driving on behalf of others.

The most important people in Sun Yiqiu’s life are nothing more than his dead father, his mother who raised him and got him this new job, and his teacher who knows the way of Go and educated him for more than ten years.
Around the three nobles around Sun Yiqiu, netizens launched a journey of plot discussion with their brains wide open. Some people speculate that Sun’s father had a close relationship with Jinchen executives before his death, and he may have made great contributions to the establishment and development of Jinchen. After all, as can be seen from the previous episodes, Sun’s father unswervingly encourages Xiao Sun Yiqiu to explore his interests and talents, and he is a man of great wisdom.

The play did not explain the specific cause of death of Sun’s father, but before his death, Sun Yiqiu could enter the chess institute to study and even move to Shanghai for his family, which shows that Sun’s father’s economic income is still good. Sun Yiqiu felt that the whole family had paid a lot for him to learn Go. Since he was a child, he was burdened with his father’s expectation of becoming a national player. After his father’s death, the family’s economic conditions fell, and Sun Yiqiu’s long-term spiritual and material pillars were destroyed, which may be one of the important reasons why he gave up Go.

Sun Yiqiu’s mother can’t bear to watch her son accept his fate in a busy life. Therefore, some people speculate that she helped Sun Yiqiu get an internship by borrowing the relationship between Sun’s father and Jinchen before his death. Some netizens even speculated that the relationship between Sun’s mother and Jin Chen’s senior executives was unusual, and Sun Yiqiu might be the illegitimate child of a senior company. I have to say that this brain hole is quite strange. If the plot really develops like this, it is estimated that there will be another scene of dog blood in the domestic workplace drama.
There are also many speculations about the identity of Sun Yiqiu’s Go teacher. A Go teacher in Shanghai Chess Academy is not only familiar with Go techniques, but also knows how to guess people’s hearts. He deeply influenced Sun Yiqiu in playing chess and dealing with people. Some netizens speculate that the Go teacher is a high-ranking figure of Jin Chen who is hidden in the chess house. After all, hermits in TV dramas like to play chess to cultivate their temperament.

It was not until Sun Yiqiu’s contract was about to expire that the drama revealed the origin of his job. Just as the four groups of people were all anxious about Sun Yiqiu’s failure to renew his contract, Hao Shuai reminded Sun Yiqiu that whoever gave him an internship could help him renew his contract. When Sun Yiqiu hurried home, she heard her mother talking to her relatives about the place where his job came from. Sun’s mother said that Sun Yiqiu had swept the floor to get this job. Mother Sun was cleaning in the hotel, which happened to save an old man who fainted indoors. This old man is the father of Qu Zhonghui, an executive of Jinchen.

Just because it happened to save Qu Zong’s father, Sun Mama asked Qu Zong to find a job for her son so that he could get out of the shadow of the failure of Go. Previously, all kinds of family mysteries guessed by netizens, and the bizarre high-rise plots such as encountering a secluded master to help each other were all poured cold by the cold water of reality.

About another important figure in the play-Li Shiyan, a kindergarten teacher who has a good impression on Sun Yiqiu, netizens also have some speculations. Li, the new gold medal investor dug by Jin Chen, is always an important figure who is successful and cunning. Li Shiyan is also surnamed Li, so when Sun Yiqiu faced the crisis of renewing his contract, many viewers thought that Li Shiyan might be Li’s daughter, and with the help of Li Shiyan, Sun Yiqiu should be able to stay in Jinchen. However, it was not long before the heavy punch of reality woke us up again. Until the end of the play, there was no intersection between Li Shiyan and Li. This girl who was fond of Sun Yiqiu and lively and tolerant was just an ordinary kindergarten teacher from beginning to end. Sun Yiqiu knew that he was just a pawn used by Qu Zong to blackmail four groups, but he still chose to resign and return to the position of takeaway brother and driver.

When the protagonist encounters difficulties and setbacks, many netizens are more or less guessing or expecting that there will always be a powerful person in the plot who will save the protagonist from fire and water because of love or affection. However, in real life, where are so many encounters and gifts, and how many people and things are forced to move forward in the balance of advantages and disadvantages?
It seems that we have become accustomed to the stories such as the mystery of the life experience of Indiana Jones and dog blood in domestic workplace dramas, and we are accustomed to standing CP in the drama, and any role that prevents CP from sending sugar will be abused and spurned. Although compared with the original Korean drama "Ordinary Glory" still has some shortcomings in presenting professional professionalism and depth, it is commendable to get rid of the love brain, master the plot trend, and focus on reality and ordinary people’s thoughts. It is expected that more realistic dramas will emerge in the future to discuss the insider of different professions. Text/Yi Yao
