Chen Haonan, 24, captain of the Nantianmen team, is the ultimate streetwise young tough.
Bean-toe shoes, skinny jeans, and street dancing are his three essentials for getting by in the world.
Everyone thinks he’s a clown, until one day he knocks out four retired special forces soldiers in three seconds, moving to the beat of A Chinese Odyssey.
CEO Lin Chuxia offers him a fortune: “One hundred thousand a month. Protect me.”
Chen Haonan: “Can’t. At three this afternoon, I’m taking the guys to compete in a square-dancing contest.”
Lin Chuxia: “???”
[On the surface] A tacky street kid, delivering takeout
[In reality] An heir to the ancient martial art of the Vanishing Steps, investigating his father’s disappearance
When street dancing goes up against Wing Chun, when bean-toe shoes shatter a wealthy family’s conspiracy, and when square-dancing grannies become the ultimate support squad
Chen Haonan finally realizes that the beats he’s been stepping to for fifteen years were leading him into a grudge spanning three decades.
“Bean-toe shoes don’t just crush the beat. They crush other people’s jaws, too.”
[Street dancing is also a killing art.]
