Lucky Baby of the Seventies: Sleepwalking into a Career in 2026

In the late autumn of 1976, in the family compound of a machinery factory in Qingshan County in northern China, three-year-old Su Tangtang develops an incredible ability after coming down with a high fever. Every night after she falls asleep, her consciousness enters the year 2026, where she can see and control the screen of a smartphone left unlocked on a university student's dorm desk.

By day, she's the sweet-talking little darling of the factory compound. By night, she's a seasoned internet surfer, greedily absorbing information online.

She translates classic recipes from the future into versions that can be made with ingredients available in the 1970s, then teaches them to her father, Su Jianguo, a chef. The taciturn veteran goes from kitchen helper in the canteen to the signature chef of a state-run restaurant.

She hums future hit songs for her sweet-voiced mother, Lin Qiaoyun. The textile worker, long suppressed by her husband's family, takes the stage with the cultural troupe and rises from understudy to star performer.

Meanwhile, Tangtang uses her nights in 2026 to study classic poems and encyclopedic knowledge in advance. Reciting them in her childish voice by day, she becomes the county's famous child prodigy.

This is the story of a little darling who wraps extraordinary foresight in an adorable exterior and leads her family to change their fate amid the tide of the times.
