It’s directed by the famous Chinese comercial film director Xiaogang Feng. Many celebrated Chinese movie stars including Andy Lau were participated. The movie tells a story that is happening on a common train running between a major city and country side. The leading role, Shagen (meaning ‘big fooler’), who has thousands of RMBs in his pocket going back to hometown for the spring new year, does not believe that there are a lot theives on such kind of a train. What he believes is that all people in the world are good and kind. And he confesses his impavidity to the public before getting on the train. Off course, theives, who do exist, in different packs, follow on him secretely all along the journey. They want to eat this big fat lamb, and begin to mediate for Shagen’s money, while Shagen does not know any thing happening…

The following is the famous saying by Uncle Fox (a leading theif):

“I have said a hundred times, we need team work, always seek the best in the team. The purpose of the trip, is to train our team in real situation and to test our new members.those deserving special praise are Little-leaf and Four-eyes. Although new to trade,they try hard,they have not only surpass themselves,but even the old guard here.”

“说了多少回了,要团结，眼睛要看这别人的长处。这次出来，一是通过实战锻炼队伍,二是考察新人，在这里我特别要表扬的是小叶和四眼。两位虽然刚刚入道，做人啊，不但突破了自己，也超越了在座的前辈。“
