Orphan Rescues Grandfather (simplified Chinese: 孤儿救祖记; traditional Chinese: 孤兒救祖記; pinyin: Gū'ér jiù zǔ jì), also translated as An Orphan Rescues His Grandpa, is a 1923 Chinese silent film directed by Zhang Shichuan for the Mingxing Film Company. Starring Wang Hanlun, Zheng Zhegu, and Zheng Xiaoqiu, this melodrama follows the pregnant widow of a wealthy man who, after her reputation is tarnished, is evicted from her husband's family. Ten years later, her son becomes an apt pupil who saves his grandfather from a plot to steal his wealth.

Produced while Mingxing was in dire financial straits, Orphan Rescues Grandfather was intended as a moral tale about the importance of education. It was released to critical and commercial success, being distributed through China and into Southeast Asia. Through its profits, Mingxing was able to expand and ultimately become one of the leading studios in Shanghai cinema.
