White Vengeance is based on events in the Chu–Han Contention period of Chinese history. The film's Chinese title is a reference to the Feast at Hong Gate, one of the highlights of that era. White Vengeance tells the story of two brothers contending for supremacy during the fall of the Qin Dynasty, which ruled Imperial China from 221 to 206 BC. As rebels rose, the nation fell into chaos. Liu Bang and Xiang Yu became leaders of the rebellious army, and also became sworn brothers in battle. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang are close friends who both serve King Huai of Chu. King Huai uses a plot, saying that whoever can subvert the Qin kingdom in Guanzhong would be Lord Qin, in order to benefit from the competition between Xiang Yu and Liu Bang. Xiang Yu is over-confident. He fights against the main force of the Qin army and entrusts Liu Bang with Yu Ji, the woman he loves. Liu Bang expresses his love for Yu Ji and takes the chance to invade Guanzhong first when most of the Qin army is outside fighting against Xiang Yu's army. Xiang Yu is furious and feels betrayed when he found out. Xiang planned to kill Liu at a banquet held in Hong Men, during which Zhang Liang, the mastermind of Liu Bang, and Fan Zeng, the mastermind of Xiang Yu, have a direct confrontation. But who will emerge as the winner from this epic battle and survive to claim their path to the crown?
