This drama is very contemporary and uses comedy to show profound social topics, which is very innovative. The tortuous and interesting journey of different American immigrants in pursuing the American Dream reflects the great changes that the United States has taken place in the contemporary society as an immigrant country and upholds freedom and equality. It integrates the coexistence and impact of multiple American cultures, especially a large number of Chinese cultural elements, greatly enriches the current situation of Hollywood TV lacking Asian representatives, and adds Latin American culture, Jewish culture, etc. to make up for the gap in existing TV series in this regard. It integrates the first-class Hollywood team, including many Emmy-winning producers and actors. Experts in Hollywood TV have a high opinion of this film and will sign up for the Emmys.
"The story of this TV series comes from real life. We hope to use our stories to tell the story of what the American dream is like in today's era and what uniqueness it is. No matter how the times change, people's desire to pursue their dreams will not change. Although in today's political situation, they may experience more twists and turns and challenges, as long as they stick to their dreams, support and help each other, they will be realized.

Our stories have tears and joy, and most importantly, there is warm friendship, family and love. No matter where we come from and what culture we grow up, we can pursue our own position in the United States. The American dream depends on each of us.
Vivi Lin's new program "Zero to Hero” mentioned that the secret of success comes from giving, which gave me a lot of inspiration. I am very grateful to Chinese culture and teachers and friends for their help and inspiration, so I decided to give back to Chinese clubs, to Chinese immigrants, Chinese students and internet celebrities, and all those who pursue their dreams, participate in performances, work, and internship opportunities.

They are: Maggie Le as director assistant, and Shihan Lu as production assistant. More positions and opportunities have been updated and opened one after another.

" My main goal in "My American Family" is to make Hollywood more representative of Asians. We rarely see Asians playing important roles in American dramas, although this situation is slowly changing.The success of Asian works "Crazy Rich Asians" and Netflix's "Fresh off the boat" make us realize the importance of responsibility and the correct direction. So my task is to better integrate the stories of Chinese culture, Asians and Chinese new immigrants into this TV series, making the story more exciting, more diversified and more international.
Another new TV show "Zero to Hero" is an interview documentary hosted and created by me. It deeply explores the secrets behind success. By interviewing a series of people who have started from scratch and strive for success, including Hollywood stars transformed from problematic teenagers, billionaires who have worked hard by poor and backward immigrants, one of the world's most successful female entrepreneurs, champion athletes and other successful people, analyzing the deep reasons for their success from the perspectives of psychology and brain nerves, providing audiences with reference and learning methods to help more people succeed.
This new program, like "My American Family", is a work that adds positive energy and inspiration to today's society and shows the warm power of human nature. "
