Synopsis

During the Ming Jiajing era, Deputy General Du Shiqing journeys to Baoding to expose the crimes of Madam Yan, sister of the treacherous minister Yan Song. He rescues Lin Xiuying from Yan’s son Cheng Xiniu, whose death in the struggle forces Du to help Xiuying pursue justice. When Madam Yan’s retainers avenge her by murdering Xiuying’s father, the upright magistrate Tang Cheng bravely hears the case despite political pressure. Through clear evidence and fearless judgment, Tang Cheng exposes Madam Yan’s abuses and sends her to the capital for imperial review.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 8

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
