Second, the content
1963- 1973, there was a dark period in the British-Hong Kong period. At that time, corruption and bribery in the police force was an open secret. During the ten years from 1963 to 1973, the amount of corruption of police officers in Hong Kong reached 1000 billion at that time, equivalent to about 500 billion in 2009.
As the "emperor" of the whole corrupt empire, Hong Kong Chinese detective Changle Pavilion (Tony Leung Ka Fai) kept many "poisonous snakes and beasts" in captivity. Not only is there an old fool boss like lard cake (Jing Wong) who is in charge of Unicom's black-and-white line, but there is also a tough guy detective Huo Qilin (Huang Qiusheng).
You can find scapegoats for all kinds of misjudged cases at critical times. Detective Chen Xijiu (Eason Chan) is the only kind-hearted man under Le Ge, and his skill is appreciated by Le Ge.
Brother Le and his brothers, with their huge organization and pervasive means, lived a life unimaginable to ordinary people, spent money like water, and dragged 99% of the police in Hong Kong into the water with their own "philosophy of life" and the power of huge amounts of money.
Just when Le Ge thought he could live as an absolute monarch forever, Hong Kong established the Independent Commission Against Corruption, led by the capable Yan Guoliang (Lin Baoyi), and made up his mind to put an end to all corruption and restore the seriousness and innocence of the Hong Kong government and police.
Thus, a soul-stirring, open-minded and protracted war against corruption began, which was a life-and-death struggle between justice and evil.
