The Movie Story

The movie is divided into two parts. It's about the meeting of two men and women. It's a bit like a road movie. The first person to show up was Alan (Liu Yali), a cashier in a bar on the Hong Kong Shenzhen highway. She watched people coming and going, and seemed to be familiar with each other, but she was not familiar with each other. She only felt deeply for the container truck driver, ah Chun (Lu Huiguang), and believed that he was the one who took her away from this boring world. On the other side, cat (Li Huimin), who has become a prostitute, wants to sell her body and mind in exchange for a sum of money so that she can leave this ugly world. But Danny, the groom who supervises her, disillusioned her desire. Because of their long-standing relationship, Danny was in huge debt. Every penny cat earned paid his gambling debt. However, in a dark night, they resolutely embarked on the road of no return.

She was now Kurosu’s wife, gazing sadly at her husband, who had become a wreck, consumed by gambling… Upon enquiry, Ken learnt that the company Kurosu ran had already gone bankrupt, and to make matters worse, he had taken out a loan of no less than 400 million yen from the bank. Unable to stand by and watch, Ken offered a helping hand, but the self-interest of a major bank official and the ambitions of Ezaki, the second-in-command of the Wakakura-gumi, stood in his way.
