- The story talks about Charmaine Sheh being the queen of news, and Kenneth Ma was her disciple. Now, the two are equals hosting a programme together, each having his or her own team. Kenneth hopes to challenge Charmaine's position. Selena Lee is the third power who seems to be neutral, not helping either side; however, power makes one corrupt, eventually evolving into three parties fighting one another. Journalists face different events, such as a dying person: should they shoot or save the person first? There is a choice that depends on their professional ethics and journalistic conscience; where is the boundary in their hearts? In addition, the angle that journalists use to report the news also has a great influence on the viewpoints of the entire matter and the clients. How should the owners who manipulate news reports deal with their profession?
- The news department in the series leans toward a foreign format. The anchor has a lot of power to review the press release, and there is an entire team to help him. With this setup, there will be plots of anchor struggles.

Because every second counts in the news department, there is often a fight for exclusives, ratings, commercials, and even people; thus, she often has to fight with Kenneth. As long as her news is published earlier than his, then she has beaten him. Selena does not agree with her way of doing things; everyone has a different standpoint. She is also called 「Man姐」.
- Kenneth will play George Leung King Yan (梁景仁), a tall, stylish, and funny male anchor who is popular in the bureaucracy and the business world.

He is a bad person, but he is not a villain; it is just that everyone has a different standpoint and would have his or her own selfishness. He is both good and evil. He and Charmaine are the two big factions, battling from the beginning to the end; he fights with her for everything. He is more proactive in fighting for fame and fortune.
