Adapted from the TV series "Seventy-Three," which was cherished by the citizens of Hong Kong and reflected their true circumstances. In March 1973, the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index soared nearly 1800 points, and the entire city went crazy for stocks, believing that "working hard is not as good as trading stocks boldly." Chen De-lu (Lu Qian) and his many middle and lower-class neighbors crammed into 73 Hong Kong Street (including Shaw stars Tam Ping-man, Cheng Ho-wei, Jing Miao, Ouyang Sha-Fei, Liu Dan, Li Xiangqin, etc.) were no exception. Chen De-lu worked as a staff member at a radio company, but he and his colleagues were more obsessed with stock points rising than how many appliances they sold. His wife (Li Yanping) and his university-student son Ah Cai (He Shouxin) often shared stock news they heard from the streets and professors, while his older son Ah Fu (Yue Hua), who worked in company security, and his wife Ah Fang (Jing Li), a primary school teacher, remained more rational. However, the stock index eventually plummeted, turning all citizens of Hong Kong into "big hairy crabs." The chaos and madness of society at that time didn't stop there: various industries trapped citizens with installment payment schemes; police issued arbitrary fines, and when citizens sought them for help, they refused to take responsibility; citizens had difficulty renting government-provided low-cost housing, and con artists took advantage of the situation to swindle their hard-earned money; education leaders profited off students without caring whether parents could afford it... All these experiences hit home for Chen De-lu and his neighbors.
