　　道光年間，英國商人每年向中國輸入近兩千萬噸鴉片，清政府每年流失三千萬兩白銀……鴉片，嚴重威脅著大清帝國。為此，道光皇帝被迫下詔，命湖廣總督林則徐為欽差大臣，前往廣東禁煙。

　　林則徐一到廣州，立即處死了一批煙販，這使以顛地為首的英商大為驚慌。林則徐派兵圍住了洋商館，英商們以絕食抗議，拒不交出販遠中國的鴨片，英駐華商務總監義律來到商館，英商們以為星已到，熱列歡呼，但義律卻先行誘騙既而強迫英國商人們交出所有鴉片，以暫緩林則徐和英商們的僵局，一面策劃回英國四處游說，要求英政府以此為藉口向中國開戰……

　　An early Spring day in 1939, a row of gallows were surprisingly put up in front of the British Chamber of Commerce by the Pearl River in Guangzhou. Convicted opium peddlers were hanged to death on by one on the gallows by order of the Emperor's Special Envoy Lin Zexu. The square was packed with throngs of people. They and those British business people in the Chamber of Commerce realized that Lin's thorough anti-opium campaign, with support from the Emperor Daoguang, was starting.

　　Lin was a man of both bravery and talent. Just after several bouts in anti-drug actions, Lin confiscated all the opium imported by the British traders......

Wonderful historical depiction Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This movie is a great representation of the first Opium War. As a history concentrator of East Asian studies, I highly recommend this movie. This is more of a historical movie, not action and not romance. However, I believe it is wonderfully produced.
