The Deadbeat Dad Makeover Plan

share time: 2026-02-10 06:06:20

Lin Xiaoman, a high school girl, has a "totally useless dad" named Lin Jianguo—unemployed for three years, living off savings, and even skipping her parent-teacher conference. Until Xiaoman finds her late mom's diary and discovers her dad was once a high school basketball MVP, who shut down after his wife's death. To wake him up, Xiaoman secretly launches "The Deadbeat Dad Makeover Plan": cutting the internet, taking away his game controller, forcing him to coach the community basketball team, and even writing anonymous letters pretending to be an "admirer." But just as the plan starts, Lin Jianguo refuses to cooperate, complaining Xiaoman "nags more than Mom." When they're at a standoff, a community basketball game sign-up form is handed to Lin Jianguo—on it, there's a note in his wife's handwriting (written by Xiaoman): "Lao Lin, I want to see you on the court again." Can this "mutual healing" transformation succeed?
