"Four Happiness" is scheduled to be released after the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, so that everyone can relax after enjoying the fierce sports events. Lin Zicong put a lot of effort into this film. When I was filming with Stephen Chow before, I just did my own play well. However, when I became a director in this play, he became the backbone of the whole cast, and he had to make decisions about everything. He has to worry about everything from actors to costumes, from venues to makeup. He washes and sleeps after the other people finish filming one day, and as a screenwriter, he has to perfect the script overnight to prepare for the next day's shooting. Even in bed, he always suffers from insomnia, which is a far cry from the fat boy in Kung Fu who can fall asleep by cutting his hair. Since he entered the director circle, the outside world has always regarded him as Stephen Chow's nonsense successor, which is an appreciation of Lin Zicong, but what he feels from it is heavy pressure, because he knows the weight of the words Stephen Chow's successor. As the director of Lin Zicong, Stephen Chow has always been very supportive, and Zhou Jiaban's brothers are also fully helping each other. If the film fails, it will be too sorry for the trust of these good friends. People say that the heart is broad and the body is fat, but Lin Zicong's heart is not wide when he is fat. There is always such a concern. During the months of filming Four Happiness, Lin Zicong hardly had a good rest at night, and his eyes were always dark. Later, Chen Baixiang and others joked with him and said, Fatty, you can stick some hair on it and play Kung Fu Panda directly. Poor sleep leads to physical dysfunction, and eating anything is boring. You can tell by his figure how much he used to eat, but in the process of filming Four Happiness, he didn't eat as much as skinny Huang Yifei and Yuan Wah. To sum up the days when Lin Zicong filmed "Four Happiness" in one sentence, he couldn't sleep well, didn't eat well, and became slimmer and slimmer. After the filming, with everyone's encouragement, the fat man deliberately weighed himself. Never mind, everyone's eyes were popping out: in just a few months, his weight actually dropped from 120 kg to 100 kg, and he lost 40 kg.

The inside story of role transposition

In the earliest script, Yuan Qiu, Zhang Wenci and Chen Fa were all "wives" of Chen Baixiang, and all the wives were vying for favor with each other to inherit the inheritance. However, in the process of script approval, the relationship of "polygamy" failed to pass, so we had to modify the script. Deng Ziyi's role in the play is called Sisi. Sisi is Chen Baixiang's "little daughter". She is lively and cheerful, gentle and generous. In the process of revising the script, director Lin Zicong got to know Deng Ziyi, who was practicing Taekwondo in the gym, and saw that Deng Ziyi's kung fu was great, and there were a lot of martial arts scenes in the film, so Lin Zicong replaced the gambling king's two wives with younger sisters, and Deng Ziyi naturally became a "niece". And added a lot of martial arts scenes, which contributed to the wonderful fighting scenes between several nephews in the film.
