据说一场革命通常需要365天,但是否有可能在短短80天内完成?英国绅士菲利亚斯-福格以一场令人瞠目结舌的赌约让世界为之疯狂,他计划在臭名昭著的英格兰银行抢劫案发生后,80天内环游地球。然而,他的惊险冒险却以悲剧收场,因为他在第81天完成旅程后,不仅未能如期归来,还因此损失了2万英镑。然而,这次小小的失败并未让公众丧失信心,他们反而热衷于证明他的想法是可行的。1873年,第二年,两位女士和一位绅士大胆公开宣称,他们将完成这一壮举,并以一场赌注高达福格三倍的豪赌来证明。
那位勇敢的绅士是福格在改良俱乐部为数不多的朋友之一,一位同样怪异但相对默默无闻的理查德-海兹。为了挽回朋友的信念,同时将自己的名字载入史册,即使自己的财富岌岌可危,海兹决心聘用一名熟悉世界另一端事务并经验丰富的仆人,以避免重蹈福格的覆辙。他最终找到了菲律宾移民工人胡安-鲁伊斯。胡安表面上是一个性格开朗的仆人,虽然他对英语和西班牙语的掌握有限,但他的真实身份却是一个鲜为人知的秘密--他才是真正的银行窃贼。
They say a revolution usually took 365 days, but could it be possible in just eighty? British gentleman Phileas Fogg drove the world crazy with his uncanny wager to circumnavigate the globe in eighty days, at the wake of the infamous robbery done against the Bank of England. His sensational adventure, however, came to a grim end on his part as he became 20,000 pounds poorer after finishing the journey on the 81st day. The slim loss, meanwhile, did not seem to discourage the populace from proving him right. The following year, 1873, was met with a daring public declaration from two ladies and one gentleman to fulfill the monumental task, this time through an even heftier wager that tripled Fogg's stakes.
The lone gentleman who stepped up was one of Fogg's few friends remaining in the Reform Club, the similarly eccentric yet relatively unknown Richard Haze. Intent on redeeming his friend's convictions and taking his own place in history even as his prosperity was placed on the line, Haze decided to acquire the services of a valet who had sufficient experience and knowledge of the other side of the world in order to avoid Fogg's fate. He found the person in the Filipino migrant worker Juan Ruiz, who beneath his cheerful façade as a valet, and his limited grasp of the English and Spanish languages was a closely held secret - he was the real bank thief.
