One moment, Chu's dad would be in the dining area, suavely greeting guests and making jokes. The next, he'd be 'greasy in the back of the kitchen, sweating,' Chu remembers. 'The guy that in the back of the kitchen, that was my hero,' Chu says. 'Not the guy who's making the jokes, but the guy in the back working his butt off.'
'Technology for me has been such a game changer,' he says. 'It literally gave me the voice that I didn't know I had. Without a camera, without editing equipment, I wouldn't know that I had this storytelling bug in me.'
Chu emphasizes his focus on hard work over glamour in Hollywood, stating 'It's not about the red carpet. It's not about this press tour,' he says. 'It's about doing the work. And it's hard. ... The secret is it's not magic. It's work.'
