Game Plan (千方百计) is a Singaporean Chinese drama which debuted on 9 October 2012. This series was the second production by Wawa Pictures to be broadcast on MediaCorp Channel 8, the last series being "The Oath". It will also be the third Wawa production featuring Christopher Lee and Jesseca Liu, and the seventh pair-up for both of them.

The original title was "Tricked" (中计), but was changed later on. The Chinese title (千方百计) is an idiom which is literally translated as "thousand ways, hundred plans", and means to use every method available in order to achieve one's goal, which loosely implies "by hook or by crook".

On Zhao Xintong's (Jesseca Liu) wedding day, her groom, Adam (Darren Lim), was nowhere to be seen. When she returned home, she was surrounded by her debtors. Xintong realized that she has fallen into a trap set by Adam, a love cheat. Not only was she cheated of her life savings; she now has a huge debt to repay. In the darkest moments of her life, a shining light of hope appeared. She was told that a swindler was about to be released from jail. With his help, there may be hope for Xintong.

As Zeng Haoren (Christopher Lee) stepped out of the prison gates, Xintong approached him and made her intentions clear. She gave him all the money she had. Haoren wanted her to wait for him. As the sun set and rose again, Xintong realized that she had been tricked again. Her body could not hold out and she fainted.

When she awoke, she found herself in an unknown place. Haoren wants her to follow his instructions without question. Under the meticulous planning of Haoren's team which includes Bu Chengcai (Chen Shucheng), Zhang Shiyun (Lin Meijiao) and Xiaogui (Tang Lingyi), Xintong managed to get her money back and expose Adam of his evil deeds. Haoren continued to help Xintong solve a few more cases, in the process helping Junwei (Shaun Chen), a police officer, bust a few crime syndicates. However, Haoren chose to remain low-profile, pushing the credit to the others.
