Ting was crazy about Ching Ching, daughter of a Shanghai tycoon. But Ching's heart was on Hsu, whom she met few years ago. Gradually, Ting and Hsu built up their empire in Shanghai. Yet, their friendship began falling apart due to mounting conflicts. When Ching was excited to present Hsu to her dad, Hsu nevertheless recognized him as the cigar-smoking man behind the assassination. He killed him on the spot, which drove Ching crazy mentally. Ting set to kill Hsu, who shot right back - only with empty bullets. Ting's hatred of Hsu instantly vanished and he tried to save his old buddy. But a Taiwanese agent appeared and shot Ting.
Hsu died at the pier watching the beautiful dawn of Shanghai, a place he and Ting were destined to rule. "Shanghai Grand" is about brotherhood, eternal triangle, power, betrayal with one after another unexpected dramatic scenes.
