Xu Feng begins as a coach who helps train the women’s football team by combining martial arts with football techniques.
As the story unfolds, the character undergoes a dramatic transformation due to conflicting beliefs.
According to Lay Zhang, the film is more than a sports comedy.
He believes it uses the spirit of football to showcase Chinese culture and inspire audiences.
The experience also gave him valuable lessons as an actor.
Looking back on his first meeting with Stephen Chow at the Cannes Film Festival, Zhang said he was both excited and nervous.
After only a brief conversation, the director invited him to join the project, creating what Zhang considers one of the most memorable moments of his career. (Overseasidol.com)
