Name: Zhu pu li xian ji
Genre: Thriller
Cast: Weirong Chen, Liu Liu, Jie Pan

Based on the true story that actually happened.

The literal translation of the title of this movie is: The adventure of the master and his servant.

This movie is classified as a thriller, but it would be even better if classified as a thriller/war movie, because it is about fighting a war. This movie, like most other Chinese war movies, are based on the true story that really happened. (Most Chinese thrillers are developed from Chinese war movies and consequently inherit this characteristic of adopting true stories in real life).

It is interesting to know what happened afterward: the money was used properly after being delivered, so there was more to follow, and eventually, many oversea Chinese who did the delivery joined the guerrilla and stayed in China, such as the protagonists in this movie, who did the same after several similar trips.  What they did not expected was the political turmoil in the post revolutionary era in which many died in the ruthless political persecution, and the master in this movie was one of the victims, he was struggled to death in the Cultural Revolution.

Mandarin-language cinema across Mainland China, Taiwan, and Singapore explores historical reflection, cultural identity, and personal sacrifice, often expressed through poetic visuals and sweeping narratives. In Mainland China, this takes the form of allegory and large-scale epics that reflect on national history. Taiwan emphasizes intimate modernist realism, generational change, and the search for identity. Singapore contributes stories of migration, multiculturalism, and the negotiation of tradition in a globalized city.

The thriller genre features suspense, tension, and excitement. These stories are known for keeping audiences on the edge of their seats and delivering intense emotional experiences by revolving around high-stakes situations, dangerous conflicts, and the constant anticipation of unexpected events.

The Singapore Chinese Commerce Committee sends a member with funds for the Communist underground to China during World War II. He and his servant must keep the funds from Japanese, Nationalists and Shanghai triads.
