Cheng Cheng, a third-rate director who spent years getting nowhere in America. No matter how many films he made, whenever one hit theaters, nobody cared what story he was telling. What people talked about most were the female characters in his movies. “Hey, man, you’ve got to admit, this JACKY Cheng guy’s movies aren’t great, but the women he films are seriously hot.” But when he woke up one day and unexpectedly found himself back in 2015, everything changed.
