Getting in and out of luxury cars, a lot of servant cooks …

You can see a figure similar to the tycoon family from HBO’s hit drama “Succession” (Succession) . If Downton Manor describes a luxurious aristocratic manor life, the protagonist of “ War of Inheritance ” is the Roy family of media tycoons who have developed along the New York skyline–attic suites, helicopter walks to suburban manor parties, say nothing. Everyone.

The most exciting scene in the second season of “Battle of Inheritance” is the “blind date” of the two major media families, where professional managers are threaded, and South Pierce, the female head of the old and serious media Pierce Group, (It can be imagined that the Washington Post’s last female parent, Katherine Graham) and upstart entertainment media mogul Rogan Roy (Brain makes up for Murdoch, who runs News Corp.) A rival play was staged in a manor house outside New York, and friends and relatives of the two families fought against each other. The Roy family is facing a survival crisis peeped by barbarians outside the door. Logan hopes to quickly enlarge his own plate by purchasing Pierce Group, so that the barbarians outside the door to buy their own barred. But to do this, it is not only necessary to convince Nan, but also to have a large group of relatives who have a say in Pierce Group, at least not to vote against the merger.

The main purpose of the “blind date” is to investigate whether the Roy family can be trusted, especially the younger generation of the Roy family. The main line is to build trust, because the Pierce family still despise the tycoon of the upstart. of. On the one hand, Qinggao muttered to kitsch: Although they all do news, one emphasizes how to exercise supervision duties, and the other is always seeking ratings. Can the two come together? On the other hand, Nan is also worried about the internal disturbances of the Roy family. After all, the so-called entrusted people must first take over the young and up-to-date who can keep up with the times, instead of being half-dominated by the old age. In the “blind date” drama, Logan’s request to his children is to show his knowledge and win the favor of the “old aristocracy”, and at the same time know how to hide, especially to hide his playboy spleen.

A blind date will not cause much trouble. After all, entertainment and serious news can be a good complement, and noble families can not afford the money sent to them. In this era, after all, doing serious journalism to burn money is indeed becoming increasingly unaffordable. The conflict that eventually erupted at the party was detonated by the issue of “inheritance.” Nan hopes that Rogan publicly announces his heir and thinks his daughter Shiv>

In contrast, Ivanka of the Trump family has her advantages, and girls are more likely to please Dad. Even at boarding school, she calls the Trump Tower every day. It is said that her most demonstrable capital is that Trump will always take her calls no matter what she is doing. After 2000, Trump started the second spring in the media career. The reality show “Apprentice” is in full swing. “You have been fired!” Has become a well-known boss mantra in the United States, and accompanied by Ivanka around Trump, It also sounds like Trump’s most trusted heir.

Jared Kushner, Trump ’s fast rider, is also a remarkable figure. Kushner is a Jewish family, Jared’s father is full of ambitions, and the goal is to make the Kushner family into the Kennedy family of American Jews (Kennedy is Irish) . But just how big Jared’s pattern is, can be seen from the first thing he did after Trump was elected. As one of the leaders of Trump’s preparations for the administration, Jared’s first action after the victory was to squeeze former New Jersey governor Christie out of Trump’s core circle and let Christie discuss the merit and seek the government. The high dream is shattered. The reason is very straightforward. Jared’s dad was caught up in a family scandal in which he planted prostitutes and prostitutes for his brother-in-law in his early years. Jared sweeping Christie out of Trump’s core circles is also a revenge for the family.

Ivanka and Jared’s golden combination has become a big hit in Trump circles. Trump has also broken political rules for many years, and he has no reason to avoid relatives, appoint Jared as his senior adviser, and let him handle difficult problems such as foreign affairs in the Middle East, and he moved the U.S. ambassador to Israel with his own hands. Jerusalem. Ivanka then became an assistant to his father, followed Trump’s visits to other countries, and took the opportunity to make politicians. A photo of Ivanka at the G20 Osaka Summit—beautiful young and fluttering, attracted a glance—was circulated on social media, making people question such a flowery frame, which can really be like Trump said in private, Is your daughter most likely to be the first female president of the United States?

The biggest rift is that the Ivanka Jareds wanted to squeeze into the high society of New York. They are the natural values ​​of the developed American metropolis. The couple tried several times to influence Trump’s policies in the early days of Trump’s administration, but suffered the biggest setback in preventing Trump from withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement. The values ​​of high society in New York have finally coincided with Trump ’s interests in the basic landlock of the United States. (oil, coal, blue-collar workers) The face-to-face conflict also gave the eldest son, Don, who Trump once thought could not be on the stage, a chance to make an appearance.

Tang found his way in helping Trump. He loves hunting and can easily join the voters in the American interior, and they are considered to be his own. In the competition between brothers and sisters, he deliberately imitated his father, even smirking, how to face the media, how to boast, how to tell jokes, and how to stigmatize his opponents.

During the election campaign, when Ivanka Jared turned around Trump, Tang, who had been left out, chose to help his father run election campaigns in the states, but he also cultivated his “stirring” energy. By the time of the 2018 U.S. midterm elections, Tang had become the No. 2 hottest person in the Republican circle after Trump, and the people who invited him had a long queue. On one occasion Trump questioned Tang’s recent use of the company’s private jets too often, and a Republican senator came out to round the ball: Dona was busy with the election campaign. After hearing Trump’s “happy heart”, he said the words “I believe him” for the first time. This reversal has a little taste of President Bush’s overtaking in the competition with his brother Jeb.

Inheritance and succession have been given dual meaning in the Trump family because of Trump’s accidental election to the US President. Before the ticket was issued, Trump and Trump’s children never thought about how to govern after winning the election, but how to use the momentum brought by the election to open a new business track. Trump plans to invest in Trump TV, which may be comparable to Fox; Tang and his brother Eric, who are responsible for daily business, want to create a mid-range hotel chain to attract blue-collars who vote for his dad in the election; Ivanka hopes Use your newly acquired reputation to further promote your clothing brand.

Trump is elected, and the family’s business is temporarily placed in a secondary position. Ivanka and Tang are concerned about who can take over the father’s mantle at least in the temporary situational heroes and treat them kindly in the United States. Try your hand at the “political clan” arena. Of course, as long as it wins Trump’s favor, whether in politics or business, there are successors to the family business.

But in any case, such a family with both politics and business is rare in American history!
