About

A newly promoted engineer creates a robotic double in his image to attend his endless meetings, leading to comic and absurd situations.

Zhao Shuxin, an engineer played by Liu Zifeng, has been newly promoted. Endless meetings and bureaucratic duties overwhelm him. He creates a robotic double in his own image, also played by Liu Zifeng, to attend his meetings in his place. The arrangement leads to comic situations. Yang Kun appears as Yang Lijuan, Mu Hong as Secretary and Sun Feihu as Director An. Huang Jianxin's 1986 Chinese science-fiction comedy-drama follows this duplicate as it takes on Zhao's office role; the experiment soon slides into absurdity.
