The Republican-era drama "A Thousand Beyond" features fresh plot twists, with endless schemes and tricks. Veteran swindlers pit against each other, leading to surprising outcomes. In the Republican era, Jiangbei's card shark Qiu Xiaohai (Zeng Jiang) has navigated the underworld for many years and is ready to retire. However, he unexpectedly encounters the warlord's widow Ye Ling (Yu An'an) on a train, igniting his desire for both wealth and romance. Young swindler Cheng (Wen Zhaolun) is also captivated by Ye Ling's beauty and wishes to claim a share for himself. Upon arriving in Shanghai, Qiu and Cheng craft schemes to get close to Ling, looking for opportunities to con her. Yet, they discover that the governor Song Renjie has sinister designs on Ling, while his spiteful wife Yao Juan (Liang Shunyan) keeps them in check, leaving them powerless as the financial power lies with Renjie, whom Ling cannot access. At this point, another swindler, Jiang Peng (Chen Youhou), and his accomplice Tao Hong also aim to take advantage of the situation to con the governor and Ling. Weighing the pros and cons, Qiu decides to pause their rivalry and collaborate to drive Jiang Peng and Tao Hong away. Qiu transforms into an economics doctor, enticing Renjie to engage in gold speculation and store the gold in a bank; then he plots to melt it down into auto parts for smuggling, wishing to escape with Ling. Will Qiu manage to achieve both love and success? [Hong Kong Drama Archives]
