In a conversation with Lao Dong reporter about the process of completing the script and writing dialogue for the Tao cast in Tao Quan, Meritorious Artist Chi Trung shared: “The Tao Quan script was carefully crafted down to every sentence. Director - Meritorious Artist Do Thanh Hai is a very talented person, has a vision, is a perfectionist, and is meticulous. Therefore, the Tao Quan script is constantly changing and perfecting every day, constantly updating new developments, constantly editing, until completing 3 days of filming.”
Playing the role of Traffic God, Meritorious Artist Chi Trung is always praised for his ability to act, his way of emphasizing to be both humorous and convey a powerful message. Many humorous lines of Traffic God have gone viral on social media platforms such as: "If you are rich, they hate you, if you are hungry or cold, they despise you, but if you are smart, they find ways to destroy you", "I am a real official but I don't know anything", "I am a commander of the industry but I haven't thought about anything for a long time"...
At Tao Quan 2025, Traffic Tao of Meritorious Artist Chi Trung continued to cause a storm with the lines: "The misstep of a teammate is our opportunity", or "I always put my interests above the interests of society"...
Sharing about his storm-making lines and unique acting style, Meritorious Artist Chi Trung said: “I don’t want to praise myself or talk too much about myself. It would be like boasting. So I leave all compliments and criticisms to the audience. I can only say that we all tried our best to have the best program.”
For many years, Meritorious Artist Chi Trung has also contributed ideas in the script development of Tao Quan. For example, in Tao Quan 2025, he proposed to include in the script increased penalties for traffic safety violations.
Many lines of Traffic God Chi Trung are considered "prophecies" when they come true.


For example, at the 2011 Tao Quan meeting, the Traffic God was upset about the fact that many people in the lower world had poor traffic awareness, constantly encroaching on lanes, running red lights, and driving onto sidewalks... "At this rate, I propose that the fines for traffic violations be increased by 2-3 times, even 4-5 times, so that people will no longer violate the law", and that "If you don't want to be fined, then don't violate the law anymore".
These two lines of Tao Giao Thong were widely shared on social media platforms when Decree 168/2024/ND-CP on administrative sanctions for violations of traffic order and safety in the field of road traffic was implemented.
As for artist Van Dung, sharing with Lao Dong reporter, she always puts her trust in director Do Thanh Hai. She believes that Tao Quan 2025 will bring the audience laughter and things to ponder.
“I really like the line, “pretend to be stupid to learn many things”. The lines in Tao Quan are all very carefully crafted. We hope that behind the lines that seem humorous and funny, there is a heavy message, a deep meaning to ponder” - artist Van Dung said.
