Maligned Corporate Type
Why is it that the HK TVB series or HK movies, or even Hollywood and other movies make us corporate warriors look like sulky wimps? I mean, why must the hot girl always leave the corporate type for a yummy blue collar/hippie/wanderer/penniless poet type? What do scriptwriters have against us?
I can do poetry too. Big deal. I can work on the car too. So what? I want peace for the world too. Most of us do.
:P
Typical story :
Girl with corporate type. Nice car. Nice house. Nice dining. Whatever. Parents adore him.
Girl meets another guy. Could be cab driver, dreamer, whatever.
Boyfriend busy, with money making deals. Girl has nothing to do, bumped into the other guy.
Girl hears enlightening stuff or touched by simplicity of worldview. Brownie points.
Corporate boyfriend getting busier or greedier, take your pick.
Girl finds solace in the other guy.
All hell breaks loose.
Girl has happy time with new guy.
Corporate type planning revenge. Or criminal act. Or Whatever.
Hell for new guy. Girl tearful/upset.
Lots of things happen. Betrayal, deceit and love that's too good to be true.
Corporate type pays for wrongdoings.
Girl (aka glorified girl who dumps bf for another man) live happily ever after with that guy.
Or you can add in how corporate guy tries to hook up with boss'/rich tycoon's daughter.
Or how he swindles company money.
Or how the other guy is actually the long lost heir to tycoon's empire.
Nothing looks good. Blurgh. World is unfair.
