Summary |
|
Young Cheng Daqi (Huang Xiaoming) wants to go to Shanghai in order to escape poverty and become someone big. His girlfriend Ye Zhiqiu (Feng Wenjuan), however, dreams of a career as an opera singer in Beijing. One day Daqi is falsly accused of murder and ends up in prison. There he meets army officer Maozai (Francis Ng) and with his help he escapes. Now he heads to Shanghai where he soon works under the honorable gangster boss Hong Shouting (Sammo Hung). Daqi meets his girlfriend again after a few years, but when she realizes what he does for a living she splits up with him. His loyalty and skills help Daqi to gain more respect in Hong's organisation. Eventually he even saves his boss' life and becomes his sworn blood brother. In 1937 Daqi (Chow Yun-Fat) rules over Shanghai alongside Hong, when suddenly Zhiqiu (Yolanda Yuan) turns up again. She is married now and her husband is said to have a list of underground rebels that Daqi is supposed to get his hands on by order of Mozai. Furthermore, political tension in the country doesn't really leave a doubt that Japan is soon about to attack China. - Asian Movie Web. |
