Directed by and starring Dong Chengpeng, who also wrote the screenplay, "The Lychee Road" adapts Ma Boyong's popular novel. It follows a Tang dynasty official tasked with transporting fresh lychees over 2,000 kilometers to the imperial court, an impossible ancient mission.

The film became a summer blockbuster, resonating as a workplace satire that blends historical legend with modern struggles like career pressure.
