AC (MARIO): Do
you dedicate your films to your father? Do you say, "Dad, this
is for you. I'm going to go do a great scene?"
JET: No,
I never remember my father because I don't know, I don't have a
picture in my mind what, who is my father. I always remember my
mother in my heart.
AC (MARIO): That's
wonderful. Do you plan to publish a book about your martial arts experiences?
Are you thinking about a book, or are you focusing only on movies?
JET:
From
now, I'm only focusing on movies. Because I'm thirty-seven years
old. (laughter) So, I've been in martial arts already 28 years.
28 years already! So, I think to make movies is more fun. Maybe,
the next 5 years later, or 7 years later, I'm getting old, I cannot
move again, so maybe I focus on different kinds of martial arts,
write a book, so do something, but right now I still have energy
to do! (laughter)
AC (MARIO): That's the question that
Alameda wrote. Would you like to play a role where your character
is physically handicapped? There are no action scenes, just passion,
love and emotion?
JET:
Of course, I like movies. I'm an actor, so I want to play
different kinds of characters. But, I think I remember why I first
make movie, after (my) first movie "Shaolin Temple," the reporter
started to ask the same question. The same question, in the past
twenty years. But nobody's given me a chance to play the character
without action. I hope in the States or in the future, Asia, the
directors and producers can give me the chance to play some kind
of characters. A wonderful story, no action. I'd like to try.
AC
(MARIO): That's a great idea. Michael.
AC
(MICHAEL): Joey sent us a question. He says that he watched you
on Jay Leno's "Tonight Show." He was really impressed by how much
your English has improved. He'd like to know, what has been the
most challenging about learning English?
JET:
Oh.
(laughter) That's so hard. I remember, two years ago, I just started
to learn English. Then, the first time I did an interview, I stand
up in front of the camera, so I don't know how to do! You know,
I can't understand what they are asking me?! What's the question?!
(laughter) What should I do? What should I do? I tried to use my
body language to tell something. I think the most important�is you
try to tell�use your heart, use your mind to tell the audience.
Even English is not my mother language, but I tell the truth, what
I am feeling. I think they understand that. So, after that, I studied
English. It's not easy. (laughter) For thirty years old, you start
a different language. You always put a wrong order, the time, you
know!
AC
(MARIO): You do very well.
JET:
Thank
you!
