Former journalist Sheldon (Bosco Wong) & his buddies Sean (Edwin Siu) & Tim (Louis Cheung) are both best friends & great business partners, forming the noted "e;iron triangle"e; of public relations firm The Rainmakers. The three each have their own strengths in work, but harbor different views & ambitions that increasingly diverge when the wealthy Koo family takes over the firm. As the daughter of tycoon Koos mistress, Seans wife Max (Priscilla Wong) resents having to defer to her older half-sister (Alice Chan) & worries about her hapless younger brother Ted (Luk Wing). To help Ted grow & to impress their father, Max acquires The Rainmakers & places her brother in a position to excel through the assistance & expertise of Sheldon, Sean & Tim.
Seeing through Maxs power play, Sheldon sets out to not only transform Ted into the successful young business heir of public imagination, but also to transform himself into the kingmaker who holds the real power over Ted. However, the higher Sheldon climbs towards the "e;heaven"e; of wealth & social status, the more he loses in family, love & friendship.
