Fan Xiaobing, a seemingly successful businessman, is a loser and a conman in real life. He has an awful relationship with his father Fan Yingxiong, who used to serve in the army. To pay back the debt from gangsters, Xiaobing comes up with a terrible plan: claiming his dad has died and then collecting condolence money. In order to hold a fake funeral, Xiaobing tricks his father Yingxiong to leave the city for a travel. But Yingxiong returns unexpectedly and puts this farce to an end. Gangsters take Xiaobing to Macao to take his life. Yingxiong decides to go to Macao with his old comrades to save the son.
