A fund manager who graduated from a prestigious university and comes from a family of antiques dealers tries to climb the social ladder by currying favor with the powerful, only to be framed by the elite and convicted for eating exotic game. He spends four years in prison, where his career is destroyed, and his family is unexpectedly torn apart. After his release, he spends years investigating in secret to avenge himself. At last, he discovers that his enemy's son is not really his son, and that his father has fled to America, using him as a sacrificial pawn to protect himself. So he devises a plan: launder money by investing in films and take the enemy's ill-gotten wealth by cunning means. He teams up with the enemy's rich young son, an unemployed engineer posing as a living Buddha, and a Chinese woman who studied abroad and runs in celebrity circles, forming a four-person team to strike back. Along the way, he encounters a Korean con man who demands the Qiankun Mirror in exchange for a cosmic talisman, hoping to uncover the truth about ancient Korea. He learns that the treasured mirror collected by his parents was seized by the powerful, who plan to send it to America. Thus, for the sake of wealth, five people each harbor their own schemes and calculations, caught up in hatred, love, and revenge. In the end, however, they choose to give the treasure to their country, find redemption, and return to true love.
