The stage design full of science and technology that night also reflected the integration of eastern and western civilizations, and brought the audience into the future world with advanced technology and shared civilization.
As one of the highlights of the film week, the "Iron Man" commendation and selection is the focus of attention every year, and this year is particularly exciting. A total of 152 films from 36 countries participated in the competition, and the number and proportion of overseas films all reached the highest in history. After fierce competition, 10 action movies from 7 countries stood out and were shortlisted for the final selection. In the end, China’s film "Big Man", Indian film and Russian film "T-34 Tank" shared 11 "Iron Man" honors.
It is worth mentioning that this year’s film festival invited seven filmmakers from six countries to form an international jury for the first time, and the famous Chinese director Xu Ke served as the chairman of the jury. Their selection not only inherited the wonderful characteristics of action movies, but also fully demonstrated the multicultural vision.
In the end, the jury will give this Jackie Chan International Action Film Week the "highest praise" — — The lifetime achievement commendation was awarded to Yuan Heping, a famous action director and director in Hong Kong, China. The commentary reads: "Drinking horses for a lifetime is a great achievement in the world; Plan and create a screen kung fu empire. He has been on the screen for more than half a century and cultivated countless new action people. He is the creator, pioneer and leader of action movies. The world’s first martial finger, he, can afford it. Yuan Heping, a master! "
Yuan Heping, who has been in the cinema for 57 years, has directed classic films such as "Kung Fu" and created a precedent for kung fu comedy. As a film directed by martial arts, he has fused the oriental meaning with western aesthetics, broken down cultural barriers, reshaped the true meaning of action, and left China Kung Fu in the world film history.
In his speech, Yuan Heping hit the floor said: "China’s films go abroad mainly by kung fu films. Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee and Jet Li are the best models. Who can take over after Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen and Jason Wu? Kung Fu is the quintessence of China, and Kung Fu movies should be passed down by someone. "
Wu Jing expressed the initial intention of China action filmmakers to strive for progress and climb the peak bravely, and also represented the inheritance spirit of China films passed down from generation to generation.

It is one of the important meanings of Jackie Chan International Action Film Week to promote the dialogue among filmmakers from all countries on the platform of pluralistic coexistence. At this film week, representatives of stuntmen Association from China, Russian, Japanese, German and other eight countries and regions launched a wonderful frontier ideological collision in Datong on the topic of new breakthroughs in action movies in the new era and new technology.

That night, Jonathan Lee and Emil Wakin Chau also made a surprise appearance. Together with Jackie Chan, they sang the classic song "True Hero". The passionate melody instantly brought the audience back to last romance 26 years ago, and also pushed the atmosphere of the audience to a climax. Sally Yeh, Wang Leehom, Jane Zhang, Chang Shilei and other powerful singers also took the stage to sing, paying tribute to the action filmmakers with their songs.
We really should applaud these heroes behind the scenes. As the saying goes, one minute on stage takes ten years off stage.
Martial arts practitioners from generation to generation have made the extensive and profound China Wushu inherit and spread all over the world. Generation after generation of action filmmakers have pushed forward, letting the world know about China Kung Fu and spreading the chivalrous spirit to every corner of the world. Light and shadow bear the filmmakers’ dreams, and blood, tears and pain record the filmmakers’ growth. On the road to dreams, there is no shortcut, and courage and ability are the sharp tools to break through obstacles.
