A Phone to the 1990S: My Death-Row Dad Becomes a Tycoon

[A phone call transmigrates to the 1990s] + [A prodigal son turns over a new leaf] + [A devoted wife] + [A business tycoon] Spanning two eras, a father and son work together through conversations between 2026 and 1994. They bring his mother back from the cancer that killed her, rescue his father from prison, and turn the old man into a self-made tycoon, while the son gets rich without lifting a finger! A gambling-addicted dad, a sick mom, a broken family: if I don’t turn things around, who will? In 2026, 32-year-old Chen Yuan’an is still delivering food. His mother has died of an illness brought on by years of hard work, and his father was sentenced to life in prison for murder thirty years ago. His life is a complete mess. By chance, a phone call reaches his father in 1994, and the two begin talking across time. Chen Yuan’an: Go save Mom and help her get healthy! Chen Yong: You got it, son. Your mom is in great shape! Chen Yuan’an: Don’t go gambling with those shady friends. They’ve set you up to cheat you! Chen Yong: You got it, son. I’ve sent all those shady friends to prison, and we haven’t lost a cent! Chen Yuan’an: Don’t jump in to fight on someone else’s behalf. You’ll get sentenced! Chen Yong: You got it, son. I’ve gone straight and quit being a thug. I’ll never go back to prison! Chen Yuan’an: Hurry and buy a house in a seaside village. In twenty years, it’ll become a luxury business district, and the demolition payout will be worth tens of millions! Chen Yong: You got it, son. We’re moving the whole family so you can become a second-generation demolition payout recipient! Chen Yuan’an: The real estate boom, the courier boom, the internet commerce boom: seize every opportunity! Chen Yong: Son, you’re a rich second-generation kid now. Take these 200 million and spend it however you like!
