Synopsis
In the early 1990s, Bo Wah Chuen (Aaron Kwok) attracts great attention as a business executive in the Imperial East India Company of Hong Kong, his prominence overshadowing even that of his British superiors. However, twenty years ago, when he takes the company's entry test, all he has to show for himself is the plea, "I could read and write".

His rise to prominence has as much to do with British's imminent return of Hong Kong to China, as it has to do with his considerable ability. Meanwhile, thanks to his friend Lau Chiu Lik (Joe Leung), Chuen is initiated into the Imperial East India Company. Starting out as a lowly office assistant, Chuen gradually climbs up the company's hierarchy, while attending nigh school on the side. During this crucial period, he is befriended by Fion (Annie Liu), a westernized, upper class lady who provides Chuen with much needed advice on his conduct in the parochial world of a colonial trading company...
