A giant banner, 50 meters long, has been erected in Times Square, New York, and it prominently features JACK. !!
It says "Chinese Kung Fu" on it!
Standing to the side was a white boy, Jacob Tremblay, and the other beautiful girl was none other than Liu Qianqian.
The Karate Kid premieres globally.
At this moment, Jackie Chan was invited out to dinner amidst praise from a group of Black MCs.
Jackie Chan, dressed in a traditional Chinese suit, strode out, causing the fans and audience below to scream in surprise!
"jack.Cheng!!!jack.Cheng!!!jack.Cheng!!!"
The scene was packed with people.
Who is the most influential Chinese person abroad? Among living people, it's Jackie Chan, and that's no exaggeration.
Don't compare Jet Li to Jackie Chan; he really can't compare. Jackie Chan is a top-tier star in Hollywood, having earned $20 million, something Jet Li has never done.
Jackie Chan's global influence is unparalleled. Moreover, Hollywood even created an animated series based on him, "Jackie Chan Adventures," which was a childhood memory for many Hollywood young people born in the 90s and 00s during its release in the United States.
Not only in the United States, but all over the world, Jackie Chan's name is renowned globally.
This is no exaggeration; he is absolutely the most famous superstar in the history of Chinese people in the 21st century.
Of course, Bruce Lee was also awesome.
It was also Jackie Chan who brought Chinese Kung Fu to the world. He is a representative figure of Kung Fu comedy and has influenced countless filmmakers.
Actually, the script for The Karate Kid was probably inspired by another movie, Dragon Kid.
At this moment, Jacob Tremblay and Liu Qianqian also walked onto the stage. Liu Qianqian was a little nervous. This was her first appearance in Hollywood, or more accurately, this was the closest she had ever come to her dream.
Cheng Long noticed Liu Qianqian's nervousness and patted her on the shoulder.
"Relax, Sisi, this is your first Hollywood film. I and Brother Shen will be there to support you."
Liu Qianqian glanced at Chen Fang not far away, who was waving at her. Liu Qianqian calmed herself down and enthusiastically waved to the audience below the stage.
After a brief promotion and a group photo, the movie officially began.
The Karate Kid tells the story of Parker, an African American boy who moves to Beijing with his mother. Parker pursues Mei-ying, a girl at his school. Due to differences in values, Parker is bullied by the bullies in his class. Feeling lonely in a foreign country, Parker becomes timid and even avoids the bullies.
Jackie Chan plays Mr. Han, an apartment maintenance worker who, in order to uphold justice, promote kung fu, and punish evil, decides to take Parker as his apprentice and use real Chinese kung fu to defeat the bullies in the kung fu tournament.
When Parker was bullied by the little tyrant, he gritted his teeth and held back his tears. When Parker was forced to throw tantrums by Jackie Chan's grueling training, he ultimately became stronger and more diligent through hardship. In the final match, Parker dragged his injured leg and gritted his teeth to persevere to the very end. We seem to see a reflection of ourselves in Parker: initially ambitious and impatient for success, but through life's trials and tribulations, we calmly learn the wisdom of growth, allowing us to reach new heights and shine brightly.
This is what growth is all about. The young Parker defeated the bully who had always tormented him, overcame his fear, and finally understood what true Chinese Kung Fu was.
Jackie Chan plays Mr. Han, who willingly takes a supporting role to guide young Parker in finding the true meaning of kung fu. His character transforms from a kung fu superstar into a profound teacher. He respects cultural heritage, understands the essence of Chinese kung fu, and spreads the culture of Chinese kung fu through film. True kung fu is full of justice, and true culture belongs to the whole world. Through martial arts, we can make friends, break down boundaries, and pass on the Chinese spirit.
The plot of this movie might be considered incredibly childish and terrible in China.
But in America, sorry, this is an absolutely amazing movie!!!
He traveled thousands of miles to the United States to learn Chinese Kung Fu, where he met a mysterious teacher and mastered both martial arts and literary skills. He then shone brightly on the fighting stage, and along the way, he met a beautiful Chinese girl and experienced a touch of innocent love.
This is practically a wish-fulfillment story!!!
American viewers say they love it, it's great, it's fucking amazing!!!
As for whether domestic media will call kung fu movies bad, Shen Fang has already prepared his explanation: this is about exporting Chinese culture, traditional Chinese martial arts, and the core philosophy of martial arts; it's not about violence, but about love and peace. He's clearly stating the main point!
As expected, Kung Fu Dream exploded.
In just one week, the film grossed over $8 million in the United States alone, $720,000 in Mexico, $1.03 million in Canada, $4 million in the United Kingdom, $1.02 million in France, $1 million in Germany, and $1.96 million in Russia, topping the weekly box office in multiple countries.
Jackie Chan became popular again, and Liu Qianqian became another Chinese actress, after Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, to successfully enter Hollywood.
And she's the female lead!!!
By this time, a flood of press releases had appeared across the country.
Jackie Chan's kung fu skills are still sharp, returning to Hollywood to fulfill his kung fu dream, raking in over $18 million in its first week across multiple North American countries!
