Synopsis
While China traumatized by military cliques in the era of warlords in 1920, Japan became the largest foreign groups, with many northern Shanghai.
Although the city is being torn by international settlements, the upscale cabaret nightclub Casablanca remains a haven for a mishmash of clienteles who hobnob every night till the sun comes up: Chinese entrepreneurs, British officials, Japanese militaries, and spies who desperately seek to overthrow the growing Japanese power in China.
Disguised as a masked warrior at night, Chen now sets out to thwart the imminent Japanese invasion by rescuing as many people as he can from Japan’s “assassination list.” He soon finds himself inextricably enamored with Kiki who is harboring a dangerous secret of her own. When Chen finds out that the Japanese colonel in charge of the Japanese invasion is the son of the Judo master he has killed in the Hongkou dojo, his past inevitably catches up with him, as national pride fueled by personal vendetta guarantees the fiercest final showdown.
Everyone comes to Casablanca for a reason, including the Ku mustachioed businessman and sensual singing daughter Kiki. Ku is nothing else than the legendary hero in disguise, Chen Zhen, the death of his mentor by killing all the Japanese dojo Hongkou years avenged. Although it is said, he was killed by the Japanese, in fact, fled to France on the other side by side fighting with other employees of the Chinese contribution to the Allied war effort.
