My Wish Is To Bring My Heroes

Being A Stunt Coordinator, I Have To Take Care Not Only Of Myself But I Have To Make Sure Everyone Is Safe.

It Is Totally Different Making Films In The East Than In The West. In The East, I Make My Own Jackie Chan Films, And It's Like My Family. Sometimes I Pick Up The Camera Because I Choreograph All The Fighting Scenes, Even When I'm Not Fighting. I Don't Have My Own Chair. I Just Sit On The Set With Everybody.

In The Past Decade, There Have Been A Lot Of Friends Or Directors, Either Gossiping Or Telling Me Directly, "what You're Doing Now Is The Right Thing, Your Main Concern Should Be Taking Care Of Yourself, And Not Doing Action At Your Age." Well, After First Feeling Angry, I'd Think, To Be Honest, I Really Am Older. So I Thought, All Right, But Before I Retire I'd Like To Make One Last Major Action Film, One Good One.

I'm Very Pessimistic About That, No Matter How Hard We May Try. The Chinese Market Is Huge, But Out Of Last Year's $2 Billion Box Office, $1.8 Billion Was Taken In By Foreign Movies, And Just $200 Million By Our Own Movies, No Matter How Much We Have Learned Of Their Techniques, Or Their Good Practices. The Hollywood Movies Imported Into China Are All Good Movies; Does The U.s. Make Lousy Movies? Yes, Too Many Lousy Movies, But The Imports Are Good Films, So How Can They Not Be Box Office Hits? They're All Hits.

When I Came To Hollywood, I Spoke No English - Except Nobody Bullied Me. Every Day, I Had Nothing To Do Except Training In English, To Keep Talking.
