The 7th Hong Kong Kids International Film Festival invited Kelly Chen Wai Lam to be the film festival ambassador and Pomato's Christy Choi Hiu Tung as the "carnival ambassador".

Kelly said that on holidays she would permit her two sons to watch movies. They used to love watching Superman fly, now the older son Lau Sing loves Stephen Chow Sing Chi movies the most. He would be able to watch them in their entirety. Recently television re-reran SHAOLIN SOCCER (SIU LUM JOOK KAU), after which her son grabbed his father and brother to make a commercial of them fighting over pineapple shortcake with kung fu. Has her son suggested for her to make a movie with Chow Sing Chi? Kelly said that her son has not made this request. Recently Chow Sing Chi has been planning to make SHAOLIN WOMEN'S SOCCER (SIU LUM NUI JOOK), would she be interested? Kelly's eyes widened. "Huh? Do I still like to play soccer? I may still be able to play a retired coach." Kelly also revealed that her sons do not enjoy her movies. Once she showed them HORSEPLAY (DOH MA GEI) and THE MONKEY KING (SAI YAU GEI), but they still like to watch Chow Sing Chi movies the most. "My son would watch and ask what the foul language meant. I would answer that they are no longer trendy, even if I teach you they would be useless. That's how I deter him." Has her son follow Chow Sing Chi on social media? Kelly said that her son has not yet learned to do that.

Do her two sons have any acting gene? Kelly said, "The older son has a little acting gene, but more talent in directing. So he doesn't know what he would study in the future, studying either film or directing he probably would excel in." Would she permit her son to try making a music video? She said that he could first try making social media videos, but she would not definitely pay him salary. Studying film overseas in the future would separate mother and son? Kelly felt that this would be sooner or later, she was mentally prepared. With summer vacation on the way, she said that this year she would be very busy and not have time to go on vacation with her family. Earlier when she performed in Macau the whole family came along. Later she would again perform in Macau, which she would treat like going on vacation with her family. However she would owe them an actual trip. When she practiced singing at home for the performance, her son would sometimes secretly shoot a video of her. Since Kelly yelled at him he would no longer do it casually. Now he would request songs for her to sing. "It's quite a bother, as soon as they come in I would have to stop. I have no way of continuing."
