I've seen too many ups and downs in the movie industry.

I hate violence, yes I do. It's kind of a dilemma, huh?.

One thing we haven't mentioned is something everyone should understand very clearly. Look at the budget that was invested in 'Avatar': who in China has that kind of money to spend on making a movie? So we as Chinese filmmakers should work together to make Chinese movies that can compete as best we can for Chinese audiences, not make lousy movies, but make the best we can for that audience. Concentrate the money, the talent we have on making good movies [for China].

We learn martial arts as helping weakness. You never fight for people to get hurt. You're always helping people.

Nothing makes me more determined to succeed than someone telling me something's impossible.

First, there are many who can fight, but they're small in stature; Zhang Lanxin is 177 cm [5'9"+] tall, with very long hands and legs, and very quick. In the scenes, I tried to show all of her special strengths and qualities. Plus, Zhang Lanxin has extraordinary staying power: it was only yesterday at the airport that I saw her cell phone photos from the hospital where she was having blood clots in her knee being cleared up, and I hadn't known till then that she had this problem.

More understand China, then more people will have interest in China and more people will come to China to visit us because I am a tourist ambassador.
