And what did they say? I don't know. I think I invited my dad out to like when I finally got a showcase at the Laugh Factory. I don't think he came. And then it was later, way, way, way later when I was finally doing well and selling tickets in like San Francisco. And then I think my dad came. And he loved it. Not just for me, but I was talking about him in my set.

My dad is also an actor, but he started acting after I did. Because he was like, it's so easy, you can't do it. I can, okay. I'm like, dad, fine. If you think my life's so easy, why don't you go to some open call auditions and you understand how hard it is, how much rejection I face every day at my job. He was like, okay. And he went to all these auditions and he started booking everything.

True story. He got on this show in China, in mainland China, called Little Daddy, Xiao Baba. Half a billion people watched that show. It's like the Big Bang Theory of China, and Richard blew up. And he was like, this isn't easy. I don't know why. My plan completely backfired.

And my aunt in Shanghai, she watched the show, and she would call the house in LA, and she's like, congratulations, Richard. You're such a good actor. Did your son teach you how to act? And he's like, no, no, I'm a natural. Oh, that's very good. You and your son, same business, you know? You two are very funny. He's like, no, no, Jimmy's are not funny. And I'm like, dad, that's bullshit, okay?

You got one good role, good for you, I'm happy for you. But you're not a real actor yet. Real actors, we gotta cry, we gotta laugh. Do you even know how to cry in front of camera? He was like, yes, I just think about how much you suck at ping pong.

Exactly that. I think he has always wanted to be an artist. He always wanted to draw to paint. He was a film buff and things like that. But to him, truly, it was impossible when he was growing up. So when he saw me able to do it, he was like, well, let me try it. And apparently there's a lack of older Asian guys in the talent pool. And he started booking a lot of stuff.
