An 80th birthday banquet held for Ye Chongshan, the helmsman of the Yip family, kicked off on a rainy night in Deep Water Bay. While drinking and drinking, a fatal "gift" - an encrypted U-shield linked to the huge assets of a Swiss bank unexpectedly appeared. The old man suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and fell into a coma, and the luxurious night banquet instantly turned into a Shura scene.
The eldest granddaughter, Ye Zhao, returned with an audit report that revealed the group's financial changes, and was immediately involved in the center of the will and inheritance disputes. The U-shield disappeared mysteriously and became the key to the competition between various forces. The elegant uncle Ye Shichang offers an olive branch, the mysterious ally Huo Zhixing shows his trump card, the beautiful rose Lin Wan hides a poisonous thorn, and the family trust is full of murderous intent.
The storm escalated rapidly, spreading from the scramble for secret rooms in deep mansions to the bloody hunt in the global capital market. Hostile takeovers, short-selling traps, and leveraged thunder followed one after another. In the stranglehold of capital, Ye Zhao gradually uncovered the dust-laden family secrets: the truth behind his mother's mysterious death was actually implicated in the old case of Renji Hospital, and the tangled mystery of his ally Huo Zhixing's life experience has drawn the two wealthy families of Huo and Song into the whirlpool.
When the bloody and tearful report on the shoddy project in 1998 came to light, the regulatory guillotine fell, and Ye's empire was crumbling. Overseas capital giants appeared, and a "burning city" that affected the foundation of Hong Kong Island officially detonated. Can Ye Zhao and Huo Zhixing turn things around in the desperate situation of betrayal and marriage breakdown? The ultimate showdown at the shareholders' meeting is not only about the replacement of Yip's throne, but also about reshaping the top financial groups in Hong Kong Island. This is a life-and-death situation for a wealthy family that begins with a surprise at a night banquet and ends with the nirvana of power. Capital is the blade, truth is the shield, love and hate are the game, who can be crowned king in the ashes?
