When the Taiwan movie industry was not prosperous, Chu Yen-ping, with his talent for "laugh-jerkers," set several records: He is the director with the greatest number of films, the director with the highest income, and the only director to have two movies running at the same time while investment in local movies was going through a slump.
也許真是「物以稀為貴」，在電影工業不發達的台灣市場，竟讓擅長搞笑的朱延平創下幾項紀錄：他是拍片量最多的導演；也是國片投資環境不景氣下，還能同時開拍兩部電影的導演；更是收入最豐的導演。
