"Dragon and Horse Spirit" premiered in Beijing, Jackie Chan: I played the story behind all the dragon and tiger martial artists.
    On March 31st, directed by Yang Zi and starring Jackie Chan, Guo Qilin and Liu Haocun, the film "The Spirit of the Dragon Horse" held its premiere in Beijing. Jackie Chan, the leading actor, said that his role as Wu Xing Lao Luo in the film was a tribute to the Hong Kong Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Masters. "I played the story behind all the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Masters."

    The film tells the story of the down-and-out martial artist Lao Luo (Jackie Chan) who has a horse-loving "Red Rabbit". He always wants to cultivate it into an action star on the set, but unexpectedly he is caught in a lawsuit and can only ask for help from his daughter Xiaobao (Liu Haocun) and her lawyer boyfriend Naihua (Guo Qilin). Xiaobao helped Lao Luo to go to court, while persuading him not to make dangerous moves with his life, but Lao Luo ignored his daughter’s opposition and continued to secretly train the red rabbit, and at the same time, he aimed at his son-in-law Naihua and launched various tests.
    "The film was inspired by the documentary" Dragon Tiger Warrior ". Director Yang Zi said that it is his long-cherished wish to cooperate with Jackie Chan in a film. "I found the prototype of the characters in this documentary, and I am lucky to get the support of my eldest brother."
    Jackie Chan said that when the director first asked someone to find himself, he didn’t take it too seriously. "I didn’t expect him to come to me again a few days later. In fact, I wanted to make a movie related to the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts for a long time. This time, I felt that the time was right, so I agreed."
    Recalling the experience of being a dragon and tiger martial artist, Jackie Chan was filled with emotion. "At that time, there was only 5 yuan a day, and it was half a day to play a dead body lying in cold water. He was also accused of being scolded by his nose and had no dignity at all. Once I jumped from a tall building and was accused by a group of voice actors that I couldn’t act, but I refused to admit defeat and had to prove myself. Later, it was also these people who complimented me that I could act even with my fingers. "
    When you are a dragon and tiger warrior, it is common to break your hands and feet. Jackie Chan recalled that when he was young, he broke his leg in the morning and went on filming in the afternoon. At that time, he couldn’t even apply ice. "Once filming in Canada, after breaking his leg, they said they had to rest for at least three months. I said that this was not possible. They were very surprised: Don’t you have a trade union? I said yes, I am the president of the trade union, but we must finish it. "
    "The biggest interviewee during filming is around." Yang Zi said that in addition to Jackie Chan, Jason Wu and Yu Rongguang are the most dazzling action stars in the film. "I listened to everyone talking every day during the creation process, and my eldest brother also felt it. I recalled the bits and pieces when I was filming that year. These details were added to the character Lao Luo."
    However, with the development of the times and technology, Jackie Chan also admitted that the era of fighting for life had gradually gone away. Someone in the movie said to Lao Luo, "Your time is over." In this regard, Jackie Chan admitted, "Now the requirements for actors are more beautiful. To be honest, that desperate era has passed. For example, if Guo Qilin is injured while doing the action, the whole crew will stop. It was not before, and the action drama needs the actors themselves. "
    In Yang Zi’s view, although the way the Dragon and Tiger Martial Masters did things in those years has retreated behind the scenes, "but their spirit has remained, and perhaps these people will be more or less frustrated, sad and embarrassed, so in this film, we just want to express their voices, which is also an appeal of our creation."

    Liu Haocun, who plays Lao Luo’s daughter "Xiaobao" in the film, mentioned the experience of shooting and once burst into tears. "This time, I was very distressed to see how the Dragon and Tiger Martial Master fell and did thrilling moves at close range. I also feel that participating in this work will encourage me. I hope I can find my own love and work hard like a dragon and tiger martial artist, like a big brother and like all teachers. "
    The film is scheduled to be released on April 7. (Reporter Wang Jinyue An Xudong)
