Introduction

Join us on a quest to discover the legendary heroes who shaped China’s 5000-year-old history. Their unbelievable feats have been passed down to us through stories and idioms. Today we bring them to you through our brand new docudrama series.

We begin our journey with Han Xin, the outstanding general who helped Liu Bang establish the Han dynasty, a period that shaped China for more than two millennia.

We first meet him as a poor young man who can barely feed himself, humbled by the charity of a washerwoman. We follow his rise as the Han kingdom’s general-in-chief and watch him take on Xiang Yu, China’s most powerful ruler. Along the way, we learn from his invincible battle strategies, and in the end reflect upon his untimely death.

After 11 episodes, we leave you with a valuable piece of China’s history, and also strategic and life lessons from the man known in history as “the God of War.”
