''Ming and Ming'' is a 2017 Chinese film written and directed by Billy Hu.

Fang Daming (Mu Li) is a lonely, unemployed man contemplating suicide after his girlfriend leaves him. He learns that his young autistic cousin Xiaoming (Wenbo Xu) has been orphaned. A couple has agreed to adopt him, but they won't be available for another month, and Daming is Xiaoming's only living relative who's around to take care of him in the meantime. Over the course of the month, Daming gets to know Xiaoming and helps him out in school, but Daming's inability to get over his ex-girlfriend gets between the two of them.
