Small-time thug Su Yang is out of options. With five thousand borrowed yuan in his pocket, he heads to Macau to gamble with his life. After losing everything, he is about to jump off a bridge when he is saved by the retired legendary gambling king, “Ghost Hand Chen.” Three years later, Su Yang returns to Macau. With help from a benefactor, he is no longer the hopeless gambler he once was, but the “King of Junket Operators,” handling tens of billions in annual turnover. He has turned the tables, but only after reaching the top does he realize that he has merely found a new way to remain imprisoned by desire.
