Gold Leaf

Gold Leaf is a Hakka period drama that reproduces the glorious 1950s era of the tea trade in Taiwan. The story depicts the journey of the Sunlight Corp., a tea company owned by tycoon Chen Fu-ji, from the thriving era of Taiwanese tea to the challenges of a tumultuous transition period. In 1949, Yixin Zhang, the only daughter of the largest tea exporter in Taiwan, is supposed to find a husband to help take over her father’s business. However, in order to prove her worth, Yixin instead devotes herself to a family business mired in debt. In an era with no room for  “career women”, can she lead the crumbling company through relentless “tea wars” to rise onto the world stage?
