The movie opens with a young boy running to meet his grandfather (played by Yune), who lies dying on his bed. The young boy sadly explains that he could not find the medicine required to cure his grandfather's ailment and wonders aloud who will take care of him after his grandfather dies. His dying grandfather attempts to reassure the young boy, and explains that he should go to America. He further explains that when he was younger and working as a merchant marine, he met "the most beautiful girl" in America, and tells the young boy that if he goes there, she will take very good care of him. As the young boy is asking how to find her, his grandfather dies and the movie fades to black.

In this sports comedy film, Biao is taunted by rival football teams. At first he is just a ball boy and a punch bag for leading villain Dick Wei. But after too many beatings, Biao decides to play for another local team and go against Dick Wei in a one off football at the end. The film also tackles problems of jealousy, corruption and bullying in sports.
