Plot:
What is presented here is no longer the history of success and failure, nor the traditional tragedy of ill-fated women and beauty. Gou Jian, who had just ascended the throne, defeated the State of Wu by the method of pitiful soldiers, which made Fu Chai ascend the throne in a hurry; while Xi Shi and Fan Li were still living a fairy-like life in the deep mountains and old forests with clear wind and bright moon. King Fu Chai of Wu and King Gou Jian of Yue, the destined mortal enemies, thus launched a protracted competition. Xi Shi and Fan Li gradually belonged to two camps and made different life choices, one loved "love" and the other loved "power". With the assistance of Wu Zixu, Fu Chai defeated the State of Yue, but did not kill Gou Jian; under the guidance of Fan Li, Gou Jian was imprisoned in Wu and won rebirth with a humble attitude. This is actually a tragedy about two men: Fu Chai is a man among men, a man of the most rigid and pure true temperament in the world; he did not want to be a king, but at a critical moment he was pushed to the center of power and the cusp of history; he was free-thinking, eccentric in behavior, and full of idealistic feelings, but because of his compassion and benevolence, he suffered the fate of overthrowing his country; he cherished love and treated every woman well, but he caused himself to be misunderstood for thousands of years. In contrast, Gou Jian is the most gentle among men, a master of China's thousand-year-old political schemes; he knows how to defend the female and attack the male, and how to overcome the hard with the soft. He is well versed in the art of ruling from the south. He is a man who is good at dancing between success/failure, king/bandit, good/evil, black/white, but he does not live like a human being, because he is always in crisis, ambition, and power, and is an alienated and tortured poor creature. Fu Chai is a romantic, and Gou Jian is a politician. In the struggle between Wu and Yue, Gou Jian violated the military rules of the time and often used despicable means. He not only killed Fu Chai's father, but also hurt his subordinates, followers and people, and caused his wife and children to be separated. However, he won the initial victory and the final victory. Fu Chai wanted to kill only Gou Jian, but he achieved the most brilliant victory in the war between the two countries by following the kingly way, won the surrender of the enemy country and the love of his people, and also won the heart of Xi Shi. Xi Shi was originally Fan Li's confidante, but Fan Li gave Xi Shi away for his personal ambition of saving the world. Xi Shi was a woman among women, a person of the most gentle and pure true temperament in the world. She fell in love with Fu Chai at first sight and had a spiritual connection with him. They both wished that the world would be peaceful and everyone could live and work in peace. Fan Li hid outside the game and controlled everything, but he only controlled the turning point and trend of the Wu-Yue dispute, but could not control Xi Shi's heart and feelings. Xi Shi broke away from Fan Li's established track, neither interfering in the government of Wu nor passing on intelligence to Yue. She was just a complete woman, enjoying the love with Fu Chai. In this, around Xi Shi, three men's different ways of survival are shown: Fan Li pushed Xi Shi to Fu Chai and stood on the side of Gou Jian; Gou Jian did the most despicable and mean thing to win Xi Shi back; Fu Chai loved Xi Shi and all the beautiful things, but finally had to return Xi Shi to Fan Li. Fan Li got Xi Shi, but he had an indelible regret for his whole life; Fu Chai lost the world, but went to death with satisfaction; Gou Jian won the victory, but it seemed like he got nothing; Xi Shi was not the starting point of the war, but the end of the war. One woman, three men, so that the play no longer interprets history from the perspective of men, but truly calls women back into history, allowing women to dominate their destiny, and finally from the perspective of women, it shows the superiority and ugliness of different men. Fuchai eventually failed, but he was not a defeated bandit; Goujian eventually succeeded, but he was not a king; Fan Li eventually had to hide in the sky, completely exiled by power, leaving only the legendary reputation of Tao Zhugong. In this drama of men fighting against each other, many historical figures of all kinds appeared on the stage, leaving behind unique figures that were different from the past: Wu Zixu's paranoia and inhumanity; Wen Zhong's hypocrisy and shamelessness; Bo Pi's philistinism but in line with human nature... Heroes, a long-standing legend of history, a drama that has been repeated countless times according to old ideas, will be interpreted in a new and alternative way in this 30-episode series, thus subverting the audience's habitual thinking with a concept that conforms to modernity, and thus stimulating their interest in watching movies to understand history.
