A.C.Baker, advertising executive for an insurance company, approaches test pilot Terry Moore with a proposition that in return for using his picture and endorsement he will get a paid-for-a-year $1000 policy. High-risk Terry agrees. George MacAlister fires his secretary, Miss Tracy, just as she is typing up the policy and she, for spite, changes the amount from a thousand dollars to one million dollars. A.C. delivers the policy, without noticing the difference, to Terry at a party at the Frolics Club, a cheap joint wedged between a burlesque house and a flop house hotel. Three characters, an elderly hat-check "girl" known as Mother Hodges; Avery Jamieson, a broken-down actor; and bartender Harry Gargan are named beneficiaries. When the company discovers the error, A.C. is sent to get back the policy and, pending that, don't let Terry make any test flights.

This film originated as a play in Paris. The story focuses on the one-day adventures of Bertrand Barnier played with a genius of French cinema, Louis de Funes. In the same morning he learns that his daughter is pregnant, an employee stole a large amount of money from his company, his maid is about to resign in order to marry a wealthy neighbor and his body builder is interested in marrying his daughter.

Although Pan Qing (played by Zhang Ran) graduated from a prestigious college, he still adheres to his ideals and runs a small barber shop, hoping to have a foothold in the bustling metropolis of Beijing. By chance, Pan Qing met a young woman named Zhang Xuejiao (played by You You). Zhang Xuejiao was being forced to marry by her family because of her age, and she was feeling stressed. Pan Qing's appearance smoothed the wrinkles in her heart. Over time, the two came together. This beautiful relationship ended with the appearance of Zhang Xuejiao's mother (played by Zhu Mimi). This is a woman who is eager for quick success and greed. She feels that there is no future in opening a barber shop and cannot make big money, so she tries every means to force Pan Qing to transform the barber shop into a pet grooming salon. At the same time, she also looked down upon Pan Qing, who was born in a rural area, and believed that he was too unworthy to be with her daughter.
