Master Hui Ka Hung from Hung C. Lau has been making Lion Heads for 30 years and has devoted himself to the Zhizha (paper craft) industry. Witnessing from the prosperity years to the decline of the lion head making in Hong Kong, Master Hui still insisted on inheriting the craftsmanship of Zhizha and hopes it can be carried on to the next generation. In recent years, the art of Zhizha and locally made lion heads have regained their popularity and business. In 2014, the heritage museum in Hong Kong listed lion dance as part of Hong Kong's local intangible cultural heritage.
