Impoverished thief and amateur magician Xiao Dongbei (Lei Jiayin), 28, from Taiyuan, is arrested by the police after stealing some money from the collection box of the local priest (Fan Wei). Temporarily imprisoned, he's put in the same cell as Bai Murong (Sun Chun), an anti-Japanese revolutionary who was arrested in a cinema after receiving a message from a fellow revolutionary (Huang Bo). Xiao Dongbei steals his shoes and in them later finds the message: "The gold will arrive on the 10th at Yamato Bank." Xiao Dongbei is then kidnapped by a group of revolutionaries, led by film actress Fang Die (Tao Hong), and forced to reveal the contenst of the message. Fang Die tells him the 8 tons of gold will be used by the Japanese to buy weapons from the Italians, in a deal to be signed by visiting Italian ambassador DeNiro (Jean-Michel Casanovas). The revolutionaries, all working as film-makers, decide to steal it on its way to the bank. Xiao Dongbei is eventually taken on as Fang Die's driver but almost compromises a mission one night when the gang tries to steal the map of the gold convoy from the home of bank president Gu Xianming (Yang Xinming), a Chinese collaborator. Later, Xiao Dongbei redeems himself by getting the map after he by chance saves Gu's daughter, Xixi (Cheng Yuanyuan), during an air raid. As the revolutonaries are all film-makers, they decide to use some movie artifice during the hijacking of the convoy. They successfully make off with the gold, but Japanese security chief Toriyama Konosuke (Yamazaki Keiichi) is hot on their trail after Xiao Dongbei's greed gets the best of him.
