Synopsis:
China, 1899. A hedonistic young man, "Third Master", must assume the role of heir to a banking empire he cares little about. Following the tragic kidnapping of his brother's wife, the powerful bank-owner Lord Kang is determined to prepare Third Master for financial leadership by molding his son into his own image. The ruthless businessman tries to convince his son to choose a proven unscrupulous bank manager over a more honest one. But the idealistic Third Master has always questions his father's autocratic rule and ethics. The tense relationship is further complicated by Third Master's undying love for his beautiful young stepmother, his first and only love stolen from him by his own father...Greed, deception and jealousy surface under the pressures of war and the impending change from silver to paper bills.
