After
the highly popular
"A Step in the Past" comes another creation that turns around time.
Losing the Dragon Gown and
putting on a suit, the dominance of a King can once again be seen!
One is the "Supreme Ruler" Yong Zheng and one is
the bold and honorable Lui Sei Leung.... what will they be like when they reach
twenty-first century Hong Kong?
The story starts in the times of Emperor Yong Zheng (Kong Wah) when the Han
maiden Lui Sei Leung has the sole intention of overthrowing the Qing and
reinstating the Ming and is forever plotting to murder the Emperor. One day, her
chance arrives, but an unexpected storm causes them to be pulled two hundred
years into the future and Hong Kong.
After many coincidences and twists of fate, Zheng stays in Hong Kong as the
identity of Lee Dai Ha; whereas skilful fighter Leung is picked up by a martial
arts troupe, the two seem to go their separate ways, but by chance, Leung is
employed by Shum Siu Hong (Paul Chun) as a bodyguard and Ha finds his way into
the company as a junior worker and the two meet again.
Normally powerful and of a high position, Zheng knows all about strategy and
power and easily leads Hong's son Shum Yat Lai (Gilbert Lam) to build up his
career success. Unfortunately, after getting to know him and realizing his
unethical ways, he changes his support to Hong's daughter Shum Yat Ngoi (Melissa
Ng), causing a stir with Hong and gaining his trust, at the same time Ngoi is
captivated by Ha's talent amd Hong decides to bring them together. Lai sees that
things are not going to plan and pretends to get close to Leung to find out more
information, but she rejects him. Lai plots to bring down Ha, even taking things
to the death.... |
