Speaking of Jackie Chan , his tag is to work hard. The movies I shoot are all my own, and I never use a substitute. Then why did Jackie Chan's movies be made less than one? In fact, the reason is very simple. With such desperate behavior, his body cannot withstand the toss and struggles.
1985, "The Brothers of Dragon and Tiger" was filmed in Yugoslavia. There was a dangerous shot that made everyone difficult. Those who have watched this scene should know that Jackie Chan needed to jump to the opposite wall from a glance at the high wall with the help of a few centimeters thick tree. The distance from the ground was as high as 15 meters. In order to present the best effect, there were stones underneath without any protection. So Jackie Chan tried it first and jumped twice. The shooting was very successful. But when he was about to finish work, he thought it could be better to shoot. However, at this time, the branches could no longer bear his weight. After a lifetime leap, an accident occurred. The branches broke and the skull broke directly. Then the doctor in the crew quickly took the hemostatic cotton and found that it was useless. The surgery was necessary as soon as possible.
Everyone lifted Jackie Chan into the car and kept talking to him, keeping him awake. After driving for an hour, they finally found a dilapidated and simple hospital. It happened that a famous Swedish doctor pulled him back from the brink of death. In order not to disturb his mother far away in Australia, news about his injury has been controlling the spread, so the movie was suspended for a year, this time, the closest to his death. When Jackie Chan recovered, he rushed to the set as soon as possible. There was a scene at that time, where he jumped from a cliff to a hot air balloon, without a substitute or auxiliary tools. If there was a slight deviation, Jackie Chan would be crushed to pieces if he fell down. Fortunately, he jumped down and successfully landed in the designated position. His success was not accidental, but the reason for his hard work was very simple. If he didn't shoot, how could Chinese movies gain a foothold in the world?
1980, Jackie Chan went to Hollywood to make a fuss. The company wanted to copy it into the second Bruce Lee , so he asked him for his shooting style. The action is straightforward, obviously this is completely different from Jackie Chan's previous style, and it feels very uncomfortable to act. In desperation, he chose to leave Hollywood. Later, the company advised him to go back, but he disagreed and even had a quarrel with the director. At this time, Jackie Chan understood that he could never make a good movie with others, so he went further and further on the road of adventure, and began to shoot scenes that others dare not shoot and actions that others dare not do.
When filming "A Plan ", Jackie Chan needed to jump from the 15-meter bell tower. Because of fear, he struggled for a few days and called Sammo Hung to help himself. Just when he was afraid of depression, Jackie Chan jumped down, free fall fell down, and broke his neck. Jackie Chan worked so hard, but the few seconds the audience enjoyed. Later, when filming " Police Story ", he jumped from the second floor, his pelvis was shifted, and he almost paralyzed. In the mall, he jumped out of a light tube that was dozens of meters long, and his hand skin was torn apart. The starring Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin was frightened and cried. When filming " Red Agent District " abroad, he jumped from between two buildings 20 meters in the air. This was undoubtedly a life-threatening effort. This time, in addition to his left leg being broken, he also successfully jumped into Hollywood. The above films are full of Jackie Chan's seriousness in filming. Every action he takes is frightened, so he is surrounded by old injuries.
Jackie Chan realized the dream of letting Chinese Kung Fu and Chinese movies go to the world. When filming " Zodiac ", Jackie Chan, who was over 50 years old, was still filming and was injured due to a broken device. This fall made him breathless. After simple treatment, he continued to work. Jackie Chan was 58 years old at this time. In this movie, patriotism is also injected into it, from heaven to earth to jump into volcanoes, just to regain national treasures.
I think Jackie Chan, as a filmmaker, is not just a shooting task, but a filming movie well and presenting every detail to everyone perfectly. This is also his belief in his heart as a filmmaker.In 2016, Jackie Chan won the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award . This is the first Chinese to win this award. It is enough to show how important Jackie Chan’s golden sign is, and he is the only legend to live.
