In Shanghai in 1930, Wei Ruolai (played by Wang Yibo), as an ordinary employee of the Kuomintang Central Bank, gradually gained the appreciation of senior adviser Shen Tunan (played by Wang Yang) for his outstanding work ability.
In the process, Wei Ruolai saw a lot of corruption and darkness in the Kuomintang's financial field. In the midst of hesitation and depression, underground party member Shen Jinzhen (played by Li Qin) illuminated Wei Ruolai's heart, and different choices made him and Shen Tunan eventually part ways.
Under the arrangement of the organization, Wei Ruolai and Shen Jinzhen were transferred from Shanghai to Jiangxi. Wei Ruolai participated in the smokeless war to smash the Kuomintang's economic blockade on the Central Soviet Area, and gradually grew into a red financier taking charge of the economic front.
Wang Yang plays Shen Tunan in "The Storm Chaser". Shen Tunan is a senior adviser to the Central Bank of the Kuomintang and Wei Ruolai's teacher. Shen Tunan's identity is very mysterious and complicated. He is not only a big boss in Shanghai's financial industry, but also a figure behind an intelligence organization.
In the 1930s, Shanghai was already the largest city in the Far East, and various forces were complicated. Japanese spies, American intelligence officers, various personnel from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Russia, the Central Military Command, and the underground party are all competing on this big stage.
Who is Shen Tunan? Is he a multi-faceted spy? What did he do to make Shen Jinzhen and Wei Ruolai choose to part ways with him?
After Wei Ruolai joined the underground party, what did Shen Tunan do to him? How did he discover the identities of Wei Ruolai and Shen Jinzhen?
As a big boss in Shanghai’s financial community, what kind of financial war has Shen Tunan planned? How did he plan it? What will be the outcome of the financial war? This is the first highlight of "Storm Chaser".
Wang Yibo plays Wei Ruolai in "The Storm Chaser". Wei Ruolai is a genius mathematician who is good at financial analysis and code deciphering. Later, under the guidance of Shen Jinzhen, he became an underground party member. What did Wei Ruolai do after he became an underground party member? How did he compete with Shen Tunan in a battle of wits and courage? This is the second highlight of "Storm Chaser".
Wang Yibo once played the role of Mr. Ye, the agent of Agent 76 Headquarters in the spy movie "无名". In "Unknown", Wang Yibo performed very coldly and solemnly, and performed an agent very well, which was recognized by the audience.
Li Qin plays Shen Jinzhen in "The Storm Chaser". Shen Jinzhen is Shen Tunan's younger sister. She once studied weapons and equipment design and manufacturing in Germany, and worked as an engineer at the Shanghai Arsenal after returning to China. In addition to these identities, Shen Jinzhen is also an important contact person of the Shanghai underground party, and it was she who brought Wei Ruolai from darkness to light.

Gao Lu plays Su Cishu in "The Storm Chaser". Su Cishu is a journalist.
According to the usual logic of spy war dramas, Su Cishu is definitely not a simple reporter. She must have other identities. She works for an American newspaper. Her true identity is either a Japanese spy or a Chinese intelligence agent.
The emotional relationship is superimposed on the spy identity, the emotional entanglement and the conflict between ourselves and the enemy must have made Su Cishu feel very miserable.
The story of the character Su Cishu is the fourth highlight of "The Storm Chaser".
Zhang Tianyang plays Lin Qiaosong in "The Storm Chaser". He is Shen Jinzhen and Wei Ruolai's life and death comrade. He always supports Wei Ruolai and Shen Jinzhen and is their most solid backing. Lin Qiaosong should have sacrificed his life to protect Shen Jinzhen in the end.
Wang Xueqi plays Xu Nuo in "The Storm Chaser". He is a mysterious and wise elder who always helps Wei Ruolai, Shen Jinzhen and others at critical moments. Xu Nuo's true identity should be the head of the Shanghai underground party.
The story of "Storm Chaser" takes place in 1930, a very important year in history. Why do you say that? In 1929, an economic crisis broke out in the United States, and the Great Depression quickly spread to the world. To solve the economic crisis, countries should strengthen cooperation and exchanges and respond together. However, major countries in the world chose trade wars and beggar-thy-neighbor behavior, thus laying the groundwork for World War II.
In order to solve the domestic crisis, Japan accelerated the pace of its invasion of China. Before the war started, the financial war would definitely take the lead. As the financial center of the Far East at that time, Shanghai was bound to become the main battlefield in the financial war. On this battlefield, the financial game and espionage war between the various forces must be extremely exciting.
"Storm Chaser" will be broadcast on CCTV 8 Prime Prime Time with two episodes every night starting from March 21 (today); iQiyi will update 4 episodes on the first day, and then update 2 episodes at 19:30 every day.
