AC (MARIO): Nicky Nguyen asks this question of you. "Before you do a scene. Obviously, you have to remember your movement, you have to remember the lines. What else do you put in your mind, your focus? Do you have any rituals?
JET: The first. I'm not Jet Li in the movie! (laughter) Just play the character! You need to forget your real life. You need to - in a half year (to) learn your character's life. To think about your character, the situation around him. So, what's he going
to do? Of course (this) includes the action sequences�in the beginning, to think about why he needs to fight with people. Because he doesn't want to fight. AC (MARIO): So there has to be motivation. JET: Yes, you need to think about it deep, inside, outside, to create a new character. AC (MARIO): Eddie Chung asks, "Do you have a special
diet? You are very concerned about room temperature water? JET: Yes.
AC (MARIO): Do you have a special diet? JET: Me? AC (MARIO): Yes, sir. JET: I like the fruits, more vegetables (laughter) not so much oils. Not a big difference. Just my habit. AC (MARIO): Michael.

AC (MICHAEL): Annie James e-mailed us this question. She says, "Your level of dedication to work is astounding. She'd like to know, "How do you motivate yourself?"
JET: How do I motivate? (laugh) AC (MICHAEL): How do you motivate yourself to work so hard working. You're very dedicated. AC (MARIO): Keep in focus? JET: I think when I was young, two years old. I lost my father. My father passed away.
So, I tried so hard to work. I wanted to get number one. When I was eight years old, I do everything I need to win, to do the best. I want to try to give my father a feeling (of being) proud of me. So, maybe�I try so hard. All my school mates, they have father and mother. I don't have a father. So that's why I always tried so hard when I was young.
