Martial arts is not for hurting people, it's for protecting people.

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.

After all those years in Asia, I don't have to do promotion anymore. We just release a Jackie Chan movie and - Boom! - people go.

In every movie I do have a dialogue.

Chinese people need to be controlled; otherwise, they will do whatever they want.

Sometimes, I'm very embarrassed.

American movies show you how to fight and break armsand necks. I want to make the action in my movies like dancing.
