来自网友【五版】的评论在第一季，大妈车里对 Harper 下手，也给了 Harper 把柄，关键时刻用这个事干掉女主管，保护了tao，同时在 Harper 义正言辞下道歉第二季，大妈并没有知难而退，而是继续培养新人，只不过此回展示了耐心，以防新人突兀不入巷，先给了 Robert 一个下马威，然后逐步引导调教，一同吃饭喝酒，用相同平民出身拉近距离，老套路——上车， Robert 小伙真上路，一个小笑话破冰，阿姨马上吩咐司机下车，展示男女通吃手法， Robert 说怕弄脏了新西服，阿姨回答，我会牢牢握住这小目标一个亿，事了擦手时我在想，有经验如阿姨这样的前辈很可能准备了湿巾，一般人早已呆若木鸡，而 Robert 的天赋情商在这种事这条线上俨然在线，宾主仍保持着热络的氛围，意犹未尽。怪不得第一季公司的HR会上，主持力排众议留下 Robert ，说他没本事但喝酒讲笑话，客户就吃这一套，上帝果然给了每个人一个生存之道我想知道的是，大妈图个啥？一般地位如她，都是要自己爽，她为年轻人去火排毒，全不顾可能产生腕部劳损（说句题外话，今天遇到一个小姑娘腕部就因为做烧烤长期穿串受伤，愁没有办法治愈，谁有好办法？）大妈图个啥？看别人放飞自我能嗨到自己么
来自网友【Joebacktolife】的评论 Sometimes your client could be your best sensei and Harper is lucky to have one.First Yasmin. Bad, too bad. She is the one fell for the lie and handed over the rich Italian client to Kenny without getting anything in return and by chance elevated the newbie (who is an ambitious bitch by appearance, god forbids me). I actually quite like Yasmin. The girl is from money, kind in nature and she knows how to deal with people with money, especially the one with a familly office. PWM is a perfect place to play her strength: her multi-lingual ability, her well-connected famiity with ties in Middle East and Europe (EMEA) and it does not require strong technicalities. She is troubled by her weakness in financial know-how and that is why she needs Kenny in the first place. But does Kenny really know much about crypto currencies and its investment rationale (I mean who can? Is it a commoidity? Is it a security? The SEC is still uncertain about its nature and the roller-coaster movement of its price says much about it). By taking Kenny to the meeting she made the biggest mistake a seasoned sales person would never make: open your client book to your competition, hoping they would deliver something in return but only to find out it is a wish in vein. I really wish she can learn something from Celeste and am happy to see her grow.Second Harper. Good, very good. One thing about Harper I admire the most is her ability to see through bullshits and make a choice best for her at the moment. In Season One the bullshit is "women help women and we the woman should push out the man and take control of the bank." In this episode the bullshit is the pep-talk given by Eric in the beginning and the worthless fountain pen to buy her loyalty and deference.In episode 2, Harper landed Jesse by proving her essentiality in the block trade and clinched Jesse as her first VIP client. In this episode, she needs to learn how to keep him and grow the client into her KPI. To achieve this, she needs to evolve from a trade executor to a trusted finnacial advisor. The mission is clear: should Jesse sell the Rican stocks to Felim to make a quick money or keep it to play the long game at the cost of the bank?Kept in dark by Eric, Harper exhibited her capabilities to collect information and piece together the nips and sips to figure out the chess board. She shamelessly eavesdropped the conversation between the IBD associate and Rican and found out the scheme behind the block trade. She befriended Anna to understand what the social impact fund wants and smoothed the way for the deal between Jesse and Anna; she even nosed into the government’s predisposition on the budget diagnosis service with the input from the Pierpoint alumnus/junior cabenet member. With that, a bold investment advice was formed and a deal maker was born. Oh, did I mention how smart was the move to get back to London before the market was open and seal the deal for Jesse and leave Eric in awe? She is an assassin. In light of all the merits, I up the rating of season 2 to 4.5 with the option to top it up. HBO is really catching up and this is how high finance should look like. Kudos to Mickey Down and Konrad Kay.-0-
