A future-era antique shop owner, Bi Zhi, joins forces with modern veterinarian Su Beilu on a time-traveling quest to recover lost antiques. As they journey through different eras, they encounter unique cultures and life stories, building an unexpected friendship that inspires them to approach their own lives with renewed optimism.
"The Company" is a testament, to how much Chinese series, have matured. This is a well crafted sci fi tale of time travel with a historical perspective grounded, unsurprisingly, in China's rich history.
Characterisations are excellent with strong chemistry between the likable, cast of characters.
What I found particularly interesting, about this series too, is it doesn't necessarily offer up convienient, pre packaged solutions to, at times, uncomfortable, historical truths. There is not always an outcome, that see's a happy ending for all.
Downsides are a little predictable. The tendancy for Asian series to throw in a little overly sugary sentimentalism, is present but thankfully its used sparingly.
In summary, a well written, mature series, that both likable and sophisticated enough, to be thought provoking. A reccomended watch, for fans of time travel, sci fi.
