Tietou is a Chinese man, engaged in tractor repair. He is in love with beautiful Xiu Xiu and misses her badly since she went to Japan. Neither he, nor her relatives know everything of Xiu Xiu, as she sends no news from there. Tietou immigrates illegally in Shinjuku, Japan, where he had to stay and start working, also illegal. The thing is that he has lost his Chinese documents and therefore can’t return to his native country. Running once from a police raid, Tietou succeeds in saving inspector Kitano from drowning. He manages to drag him out of the water in the sewage system, where the raid took place.

Then accidentally Tietou saves Toshinari Eguchi, a famous Yakuza boss, and gets aquainted with his wife Yuko, in whom he recognizes his sweetheart Xiu Xiu. Yakuza boss offers Tietou one of his dirty jobs and promises to make Tietou a new boss of the quarter, belonging to the Taiwan gang. Thus Tietou receives a position of the boss over numerous Chinese immigrants, living and working in Japan illegally. Unfortunately Tietou methods of ruling appear to be rather peaceful. The quarter immigrants become more and more uncontrolled. Tietou position as a boss is under question now, and the situation is about to develop into a great gang war.
