>> I REMEMBER A LONG TIME WE WERE FILMING IN AFRICA, IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE JUNGLE, I COME BACK WITH ABOUT 100 CHILDREN
WITH ME.
EVERYBODY DO THIS.
( LAUGHTER ) I SAID, HOW DO THEY KNOW ME IN
THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE?
THREE YEARS AGO, I WAS ON AN ISLAND WHERE THEY HAVE ONLY
20,000 PEOPLE THERE.
WHEN THEY'RE DRIVING BY THE STREET, THE WHOLE ISLAND IS
CHANTING "JACKIE, JACKIE."
( LAUGHTER ) I ASKED THE DRIVER, WHY THEY
KNOW ME?
THEY HAVE A TWO VIDEO CLIP.
IN THE VILLAGE, THEY ONLY KNOW TWO VILLAGE PAST THE VILLAGE,
ONE, JACKIE CHAN AND STALLONE.
>> Stephen: ARE YOU GOING A MOVIE WITH STALLONE?
>> SOON, I HOPE SO.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: WHEN YOU WERE
YOUNG, YOU STUDIED AT DRAMA ACADEMY WE IS A PAY KING OPERA
SCHOOL.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: WHAT IS PEKING OPERA?
>> A LONG TIME AGO, IN CHINA, THERE WAS EVOLUTION, SO MANY
PEOPLE ESCAPED FROM CHINA.

PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE.
>> AND DOING THE SAME THING AT THE SAME TIME.
>> Stephen: WOW.
WAS THIS MEANT TO TRAIN YOU TO GO INTO MARTIAL ARTS MOVIES OR
JUST A -- >> I DON'T KNOW, BECAUSE MY
FATHER WAS, AT THAT TIME, WAS IN THE AMERICAN EMBASSY IN
AUSTRALIA.
AND I WAS IN HONG KONG IN A BOARDING SCHOOL, STAYED THERE
TEN YEARS.
>> Stephen: SO TEN YEARS MEANS 7 TO 17.
>> YES.
ONE DAY A DIRECTOR CAME TO OUR SCHOOL, SHOW US A CHILD ACTOR.
COME, COME.
THEN I BECOME A YOUNG CHILD ACTOR.
FROM THAT TIME, I KEEP FILMING 57 YEARS AND HERE NOW.

SENT TO ME, POLICE FROM HONG KONG, POLICE FROM CHINA,
C.I.A. FROM HONG KONG, C.I.A.
FROM CHINA -- I SAID, CAN I HAVE SOMETHING DIFFERENT LIKE MAMMA
MIA?
( LAUGHTER ) OR LIKE "LA-LA LAND."
>> Stephen: STOP CASTING ME AS THESE GUYS.
>> YES.
IF I CHANGE TO ACTOR, NOBODY ACCEPT IT, SO FOR THE LAST 20
YEARS, I KEEP CHANGING, LET THE AUDIENCE KNOW I'M THE ACTOR WHO
CAN FIGHT, NOT THE FIGHTER WHO CAN ACT.
>> Stephen: WHO ARE YOU PLAYING IN "THE FOREIGNER"?
>> I'M THE ORDINARY PEOPLE HIDING IN LONDON.
OPENING A CHINESE RESTAURANT.
SUDDENLY, MY DAUGHTER GETS KILLED.
I LET THE POLICE DEPARTMENT HELP ME, BUT THEY SAY, YEAH, YEAH,
NOTHING HAPPENED.
IT TAKES A LONG TIME.
I FIND HIM MYSELF.
LATER ON, THEY FIND OUT, WHO IS THIS GENTLEMAN?
THEN THEY FIND OUT I HAVE A SPECIAL BACKGROUND, I TRAIN FOR
THE SPECIAL FORCES, NAVY SEAL AND I JUST FIND OUT WHO KILLED
MY DAUGHTER.
IT IS A VERY SERIOUS ROLE.
MOSTLY WHEN YOU SEE RUSH HOUR, EVERYBODY IS HA, HA, HA, HA --

WATCH WITH THE AUDIENCE, THE WHOLE THEATER --
>> Stephen: CRYING?
