song qiao, played by zhang xiwen, was originally zhao kai's wife. the two broke up peacefully due to different life plans. there was no bloody drama, just because "two people, only one car, want to go to different destinations, there is always one individuals have to get off the bus first.”

after the breakup, song qiao and xu daoming got together by chance, but they had an "undefined relationship." although they comforted each other, they were not boyfriend and girlfriend.

this kind of relationship is the mature love between adults, which includes the lingering attachment to each other and the strong cooperation of mutual support. "corporate man" this time managed to integrate love into business, without weakening the business drama due to love scenes. at the same time, it also achieved innovative portrayal of female characters in the new era, emphasizing sincerity in all aspects.

as a business war drama, "corporate strongman" breaks the inherent model of previous similar dramas and proposes many innovations.

zhao kai’s business philosophy is inseparable from the changes in real society. he knows that “every province, city, and town in the country is developing at a high speed.” what “generation logistics” needs to do is “use logistics to connect all places.” connected together." as an entrepreneur, his vision is far beyond those businessmen who are cheating for profit in the fame and fortune fair. he could see that "a country must make the best use of people's talents, make full use of materials, make the best use of land, and ensure smooth flow of goods", and what he wanted to do was to achieve "smooth flow of goods" for the entire country. "this is the awareness that a conscientious industrial entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility should have.
