《The Belief》 is a domestic war action historical film, known as The Belief in foreign languages, directed by Zheng Baorui, written by Du Jiayi, Li Lili, and He Xin, and starring Wang Xueqi, Du Jiang, Yi Yang Qianxi, Hou Wenyuan, Luo Yizhou, Geng Le, Song Yang, Ni Dahong, Han Tongsheng, Zhang Jin, etc.The film is 144 minutes long and is scheduled to be released in theaters in mainland China on July 25, 2026.

The film is based on the Battle of Penghu in the southeastern coastal areas of the early Qing Dynasty.In 1681 AD, the internal situation of the Zheng Group was turbulent. The powerful ministers Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan killed the supervisor Zheng Kezang and established the young Zheng Kezang as the new king. The power structure on the island was further unbalanced.As for the Qing court, Shi Lang was pushed to a key position in the Eastern Expedition. He not only had to face the complex situation caused by the court and old grievances, but also had to make decisions in the maritime battlefield composed of wind and waves, warships and artillery.

The core attraction of the film lies in the scale of the naval battle and the historical group portraits.Characters such as Shi Lang, Kangxi, Liu Guoxuan, and Feng Xifan belong to different camps, and each bears political choices and battlefield pressure.The story not only shows the confrontation between the two armies, but also puts the decisions of the Qing court, the internal struggles of the Zheng family, and the beliefs and costs among the generals into the same general situation, giving the decisive battle on the Penghu sea a stronger historical weight.

Judging from the published materials, -The Belief- emphasizes the reproduction of ancient warships, fire attacks, water battles and large-scale dispatching.In order to restore the naval battle scene, the main creator reproduced various types of ships, and combined real-life construction with visual effects to present artillery fire, wind and waves, and close combat in a way that is closer to a war movie.The film not only has the visual impact of a sea battle, but also the choices that the characters bear in the changing times.

For the audience, the appeal of The Belief comes from two levels: first, the rare naval battle theme of the Qing Dynasty, and second, the war narrative centered on the history of unification.Through the historical node of Shi Langdong's expedition, the film connects personal destiny, the general trend of the family and the country, and the decisive battle at sea, presenting a historic screen war story.
