Wong Fu Productions (WFP) is a rising independent production company that has been at the forefront as an influential pioneer in utilizing new media distribution and creating projects with a positive message. Founders Wesley Chan, Ted Fu and Philip Wang have been making viral videos since 2003, before the start of YouTube.

They now have a fan base of millions across the United Stated and around the world, work full-time creating online content, design their own merchandises, and producing with other companies and artists with the recent being international pop star, Wang Lee Hom. Wong Fu believes in exerting a positive influence in the entertainment industry and on their audience through its working philosophy: “If at the end of the day there’s someone out there who has a better day because of us, then we’ve succeeded.”
