In 1919, with the end of World War I, war-torn Europe had yet to recover. The Paris Peace Conference, aimed at resolving the issues left over from the war and laying the foundation for peace, was about to be held. China, as one of the victorious countries, sent a five-member delegation including Gu Weijun (Chen Daoming), the then Minister and Plenipotentiary to the United States, to attend the Peace Conference. However, in an environment where European and American countries, as well as Japan and other great powers, are trying to redefine their spheres of influence, the number of Chinese delegations has been reduced, and German interests in Shandong are about to fall into Japanese hands. Gu Weijun made an impassioned speech at the meeting, refuting Japan's unreasonable demands. However, justice appears to be fragile in the face of interests. Mei (Xu Qing), the wife of Gu Weijun's good friend Xiao Kejian (played by He Zhengjun), makes a special trip to Paris to find Kejian who has joined the patriotic workers' movement. Kejian's activities in France and the huge popular voice in the country made Gu Weijun and others at the peace conference feel a heavy responsibility.
