Anchor Liu Li-min encounters a similar situation when he’s held hostage by a former prominent sports figure turned convict for having murdered his girlfriend years ago. Using the opportunity to the fullest as a means to promote his name to the world, Li-min plays along with the stunt while initiating his own investigation on the ground.
