daughter's depression, wife Li Zhishenyin, 60-year-old Jet Li's fantasy life

In November 2023, after the Nth news of his death, Jet Li appeared in Taiwan Province and said that he was "not dead yet".

This time is to promote the new book "Beyond Life and Death", Jet Li will be 60 years old in 2023, and he will compile most of his life experience into a book, although most of the content revolves around Buddhism, but the book reveals a rather surprising detail that his youngest daughter has had a precursor of depression since she was 7 years old, and she has tried suicide at the age of 13.

For many years, Jet Li's health problems have been a topic of public discussion, in addition to the "news of death" every once in a while, as well as his real experience of brushing shoulders with death many times, and his attitude towards death.

This time, combined with the release of the new book, Jet Li also said that he had already explained the aftermath to his wife, and he would not erect a monument or hold a funeral after his death. Now he has personally spoken about his daughter's depression, which also confuses people, what has this martial arts star, who seems to have both fame and fortune, a beautiful wife and wealth, and a proud career and family, has experienced in his life over the years, looking like a catastrophe?

Jet Li and his wife Li Zhi have always been a mysterious couple in the circle, they often live abroad and rarely show up, especially Li Zhi, since marrying a wife in the nineties, it seems to have become a "lost actress" in the circle, and Jet Li is currently in a semi-retired state, living in a simple house.

But the two of them do carry the most colorful and complicated time in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the eighties and nineties, and there are many stories.

Today, let's explore some of the content in Jet Li's new book, and by the way, talk about the story of him and Li Zhi, and see how the former "Kung Fu Emperor" has gone through his 60 years of life.

From Beijing Sports School to Hong Kong Film Industry

Jet Li, born in Beijing in 1963, came from a poor family, his father died when he was 2 years old, and his mother raised them siblings.

Jet Li recalled the poor life when he was a child, "My father died in the line of duty when I was two years old, and the government subsidized each child in our family with 10 yuan a month, 50 yuan for five children, plus my mother's monthly salary of 40 yuan, a total of 90 yuan, to support my grandparents and a group of our children, the family can be said to be very poor." ”

My mother worked hard to save money for a year, saved 30 yuan, and was ready to buy some meat for the children to eat during the New Year, but it was all stolen by thieves, and my mother cried very sadly.

▲Jet Li and his mother.

In 1970, 7-year-old Jet Li was selected to enter Beijing Shichahai Amateur Sports School, the motive at that time was very simple, the children in the sports school ate well, and there was no shortage of meat, eggs and milk, because at that time, the country's sports resources were inclined to the Olympic Games.

Jet Li is talented and extremely intelligent, coach Wu Bin recalled: "Jet Li was selected at least from more than 1,000 people", and then, after a long and arduous training, he stood out and won the national championship is commonplace.

"Wulin" magazine commented: "Jet Li's skills are solid and comprehensive, and the swords, guns, sticks, swords, and fists and feet are quite kung fu, especially the knives and fists are the most refined, reaching the point of being superb." ”

He went abroad to compete at a young age, and the most notable thing was to visit the United States with the Chinese delegation in 1974 and perform for the president in front of the White House. At the end of the performance, Nixon took a photo with him: "Little friend, your kung fu is impressive, will you be my bodyguard when you grow up?" Jet Li replied loudly: "No, I want to protect hundreds of millions of people in China!"

Here are two interesting things, one is that Beijing Shichahai Amateur Sports School is the cradle of stars, the first generation of superstars is Jet Li, and in 1978, a 15-year-old boy came to Beijing Shichahai Sports School from Hong Kong to learn martial arts and became Jet Li's younger brother, he is Donnie Yen.

According to Donnie Yen, Jet Li was very famous in the sports school that year, and he won the national martial arts all-around championship for 5 consecutive years, which is a legend. Donnie Yen was a Hong Kong teenager at the time, his Mandarin was very bad, he had difficulty communicating with his classmates, he had no friends, he was a marginal figure in the sports school, Donnie Yen had only met Li twice, and the two had never spoken.

▲Although Jet Li and Donnie Yen are the same age, they really belong to two generations in terms of the generations that became popular, Jet Li became popular in the 80s, and Donnie Yen did not become well-known until the 90s when he played Jet Li's inability to play Huang Feihong.

Later, Donnie Yen slowly became a big star, but he had a shadow that he was never able to break through Jet Li's status, and there were several times the media ridiculed "Donnie Yen was beaten all over the ground by Jet Li" and the like.

The third star of Beijing Shichahai Amateur Sports School is Wu Jing, who completely copied Jet Li's road to fame, entered the Beijing Wushu team in 1989, and won the national martial arts competition elite competition in 1994.

In 1995, director Zhang Xinyan, who was popular Jet Li, selected him among many martial arts athletes to star in his first movie "Kung Fu Boy Breaking Love", and Wu Jing entered the showbiz.

Therefore, Ma Yun's "Gong Shou Dao" in 2017 can be said to be the team building program of Shichahai Sports School.

▲ In this Ma Yun's self-funded micro-movie, he slashed at Gongzi, beat Wu Jing with a stick, Xiao Shengzidan, and fought Jet Li for 300 rounds.

The second thing about the insertion is that in the past ten years in the sports school, Jet Li completed his first marriage, the other party's name is Huang Qiuyan, she is his senior sister, she usually takes good care of him, especially Jet Li's mother.

Newspaper reports of the year:

In the martial arts school, Jet Li always has low self-esteem and does not communicate with others because of his poor family conditions. Huang Qiuyan noticed this little junior brother, and out of sympathy and pity, she often chatted with Jet Li, and slowly opened his heart of inferiority.

She brought him home, asked his mother to cook food for him, and took time to go to his house to help his mother with the work. When the mother asked her daughter why she did this, she said seriously, "His family is in difficulty, shouldn't we help him?"

▲Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan are at home in Beijing.

Jet Li said that his ten years in the sports school were ten years of sexual repression, especially when he was a teenager, living in a group dormitory, "there are people everywhere", there was no privacy space, and he slept in the same bed with his mother and brother when he got home.

Huang Qiuyan is a virtuous woman, she is good to Jet Li, and Jet Li is also in love, "I thought it was love", "I think it is", and the two immediately fell in love.

▲Jet Li talked about his ex-wife Huang Qiuyan in "A Date with Luyu", and the micro-expressions of him and Lu Yu are intriguing.

It is worth mentioning that this relationship lasted for a long time, but Jet Li never turned it into marriage until 1987, when Jet Li faced the first low point in his life, he and Huang Qiuyan both went to the United States to open a boxing gym, and there was no career to develop, so he took the energy to marry Huang.

Back to Jet Li.

In 1982, Jet Li encountered the first major turning point in his life, Liao Chengzhi, then director of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council, had a soft spot for Chinese kung fu, and after watching the movie "Jingwumen", he was full of praise, so he suggested to Hong Kong filmmakers that he should shoot themes about Shaolin Temple and Taijiquan to promote national self-confidence, so the movie "Shaolin Temple" began to brew.

Director Zhang Xinyan's Great Wall Film Company joined the project of "Shaolin Temple", and he proposed to select actors from martial arts athletes, and it happened that Jet Li participated in the "Pan-Asian, African and Latin American Table Tennis Championships" in 1973, and Zhang Xinyan happened to be present to shoot the sports-themed documentary "Thousands of Purples and Thousands of Reds".

10-year-old Jet Li gave a martial arts performance at the opening ceremony of the championship, and at that time, Zhang Xinyan was deeply impressed by Jet Li and has always remembered him.

▲Jet Li and Zhang Xinyan.

When the filming of "Shaolin Temple" started in 1982, Jet Li was just 19 years old, and he was top-notch in terms of body shape, appearance, and strength, so he became the actor "Jueyuan" in this classic movie.

At that time, the box office of this movie reached an astonishing 161 million, and you must know that the ticket price of the movie was only 1 cent, and if it is converted to the current price, it will be at least 10 billion yuan.

In the 80s, there were limited movies available in the mainland, this film has the blessing of Hong Kong directors, and the real kung fu of hard bridges and hard horses, coupled with the handsome Jet Li, it was really an empty alley back then, Jet Li became an instant hit and became a proper big star.

▲ Restored version of the stills, the source watermark. "Shaolin Temple" brings together 24 martial arts athletes from all over the country, thanks to these real kung fu skills, the audience appreciated the martial arts such as eagle boxing, mantis boxing, three-section stick, nine-section whip, etc., the wonderful martial arts scene has become a classic, Jet Li is more brilliant in it, handsome and cute appearance is more lovely, so he and the movie theme song "Shepherdess", become one of the elements that support the spiritual world of that era, "The sunrise Songshan Pass, the morning bell frightens the birds, the forest stream gurgles, the green grass on the slope... ...”

▲ This film not only set off a martial arts craze in the mainland at that time, but also had a huge influence in the whole of East Asia, the picture shows the re-screening of the 4K restored version of "Shaolin Temple" in Japan.

▲ Wang Baoqiang also recalled that he dropped out of school to learn martial arts in Shaolin Temple because of this movie, and finally became a group performer.

▲Jet Li has become a new star of a generation and an idol of thousands of people.

▲Jet Li has always regarded Zhang Xinyan as a benefactor.

When filming "Shaolin Temple", Jet Li was already in love with Huang Qiuyan, but in the movie, Ding Lan's "White Flawless" is more famous, and they are considered by the audience to be a pair of CPs made in heaven, and there have been many scandals.

▲Ding Lan was born in Zhengzhou, Henan Province in 1964, and was admitted to the dance training class of the Henan Provincial Song and Dance Troupe at the age of 11, and was admitted to the actor class of the Henan Provincial Opera School at the age of 12. At that time, Zhang Xinyan had a headache about the choice of the heroine "Bai Flawless", not only to be beautiful, but also to be able to perform martial arts, and to be able to perform, the head of the Henan Nanjing Theater who taught martial arts recommended Ding Lan to Zhang Xinyan. Many years later, Zhang Xinyan revealed to the media that the head of the sect may have a little selfish intention in recommending Ding Lan, because at that time his son was trying to pursue Ding Lan. Ding Lan later became popular all over the country, and in 1988, she also played Jia Xichun in the movie version of "Dream of Red Mansions" (Tao Huimin played Lin Daiyu, Liu Xiaoqing played Wang Xifeng's version). He became a Singaporean citizen in 1991 and returned to Beijing in 2001 to pursue a career in business.

▲Ding Lan said in an interview that he and Jet Li do have a good personal relationship, but since Jet Li went to Hong Kong, he has lost contact.

After "Shaolin Temple" became popular, Jet Li struck while the iron was hot, and starred in "Shaolin Kid" and "North and South Shaolin" in 1983 and 1984 were quite successful, among which "Shaolin Kid" was recommended by Jet Li, and the heroine was his girlfriend Huang Qiuyan at the time.

Jet Li's salary at that time had reached several million yuan, and he often went to Hong Kong, which was very popular and had great commercial value, but the mainland at that time was very closed and rigid, and he worked hard to make films, but because his organizational relationship was still in Beijing Sports School, he still got a few yuan of dead salary in his hand, and he still needed to come back to compete from time to time, delaying the filming, as a superstar, but life was still very poor, this huge gap between fame and money made him quite depressed.

▲Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan when they first arrived in Hong Kong.

Jet Li came up with a way to retire due to injury, and the book wrote:

"Due to the organising norms, I couldn't have been called out and the only way was to retire due to injury. So, I started to cling day and night, hoping that I would get hurt. Later, during the practice, there was a serious injury, and the doctor helped me apply for a certificate of third-degree disability and declared that I could not continue my sports career in the future. ”

Although he got his wish and no longer had to be an athlete, the injury was so serious that he was temporarily unable to shoot kung fu movies.

The bamboo basket was empty, Jet Li was disappointed and frustrated, and his frustration was serious, so he took Huang Qiuyan to the United States in 1986 and opened a boxing gym to make a living.

▲ The opening of a boxing gym in the United States was later filmed in a movie.

During this period, he and Huang Qiuyan married and had a daughter.

The reason for getting married is very absurd, it is actually for Chongxi: "During my recuperation, a fortune teller told me that bad luck is at the head, and I need to find a good partner to marry Chongxi." And the sister who is kind-hearted and good to herself is the best choice. Although Huang Yanqiu's parents strongly opposed it, she married Jet Li without hesitation. ”

The two got married in 1987, Jet Li was only 24 years old, the eldest daughter Li Si was born in 1988, and the second daughter Li Taimi was born in 1989.

The ridiculed "earth girl" Lizhi

When Jet Li opened a boxing gym in the United States, mainland girl Li Zhi began to bravely enter the Hong Kong entertainment industry.

Li Zhi's experience is also quite legendary, her father Li Yongxi is a stage actor of Guangdong South China Repertory Theatre, Li Mu is a Shanghainese, the two lived in Shanghai after marriage, gave birth to Li Zhi in 1961, and then divorced due to personality incompatibility, Li Father moved to Xi'an with his daughter.

In his early years, Li Zhi studied at Qingfeng Middle School on Yuyuan Road in Shanghai and Xi'an Architecture Children's School, which is now Xi'an No. 86 Middle School. There is also a celebrity in this school, who is Zhang Jiayi.

Perhaps because his parents' marriage had been turbulent, Li Zhi wandered around with his father, and was very rebellious when he was a child, and when he was seven or eight years old, he ran away from home along the train line alone, from Xi'an to Guangzhou, from Guangzhou to Jiangsu, and from Jiangsu to Qingdao.

Li Zhi moved to Hong Kong with his father in 1981 and worked as a salesperson in a furniture store. In 1983, he went to the United States to study economics at the University of San Francisco. In 1986, the 25-year-old Li Zhi returned to Hong Kong to participate in ATV's Miss Asia contest.

To tell the truth, Li Zhi didn't have much advantage when she ran for Sister Ya, first, she was older, 25 years old is indeed not young, and besides, she spoke Cantonese very lamely, and Sister Ya's competition required quite a lot of answering questions, Li Zhi's accent was very strange, which made her laughed at quite miserably.

▲ Among the many beauties, Li Zhi is definitely one in a million from appearance to figure.

▲ Cantonese is not very good at her, and when answering questions on stage, she often has to convert into Cantonese while thinking about the answers, which is actually extremely stressful.

▲ Beautiful and white-skinned, with an upper circumference of 36F, and this beautiful collarbone, no wonder Ni Kuang called her "a beauty that is rare in half a century". Her first cameo film was "Yuan Zhenxia and Wesley", which was based on Ni Kuang's novel "Blood Curse".

Until she married Jet Li, the label on her body, in addition to being sexy, was "accented" and "earthy", at a certain awards party, Anita Mui once imitated Li Zhi's rustic posture, which caused the audience to laugh, Li Zhi's expression was very unnatural, and after going on stage, he said "It's all over".

▲ At that time, the Hong Kong media's description of her was also poisonous enough.

Although she has a rustic temperament and often smiles and generous in Cantonese, she was praised by Ni Kuang as "a rare beauty in fifty years" during the election, the reason is very simple, just look at this devil's figure, it is really exciting, so she became the champion and Miss Beauty of the year.

Let's take a look at the headline of Ming Pao Weekly that year, and we can see what the biggest feature of Lizhi is attractive.

After winning the championship, Li Zhi naturally became a popular actress in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.

▲ source watermark.

Li Zhi is actually very unhappy in the Hong Kong film industry, because she has played a lot of sexy roles, and she herself has been ridiculed as a "mainland girl", so in those years, she was ostracized by her peers, humiliated by the audience and other incidents often happened.

For example, I often play some coquettish but brainless roles:

The line reads, "I know you hate me."

According to media reports, Chow Yun-fat and Zeng Zhiwei partnered to "humiliate" Li Zhi.

▲ Lizhi's sexy dance.

▲ Also dancing in the same scene is Zhong Chuhong.

is also because of the accent problem, she is often arranged to the conversation session, responsible for saying long speeches, a lot of awkward terms, and the audience is waiting for her to be embarrassed.

In April 1990, Wang Jing's "100 Points of Beauty" was released, and several beauties fought together, including Li Jiaxin, Chen Farong and others, among which Li Zhi's red swimsuit was the most prominent.

▲Let's take a look at Li Jiaxin's baby fat period.

In those days, it happened to be Carina Lau's robbery, and the media headlines were overwhelming Carina Lau, Wang Jing also said that it was Li Zhi who saved Carina Lau, and everyone was originally discussing Carina Lau's "nude photos", but now as soon as Li Zhi's swimsuit came out, the media wind changed.

▲In April 1990, Zeng Zhiwei and others asked Carina Lau to play mahjong at his house, and Carina Lau found that someone was following her and accelerated her car and crashed into the barrier. Her stalkers got out of the car and kidnapped her. Zeng Zhiwei and others found out that Carina Lau had not arrived for a long time, and immediately called the police. Three hours later, Carina Lau appeared at Zeng Zhiwei's house, neatly dressed, without mentioning what happened, and Carina Lau went to the police station to close the case the next day. Some indecent photos leaked out of this matter, suspected of Carina Lau.

▲ Li Zhi and Carina Lau are contemporaneous actresses.

▲ Li Zhi, Carina Lau, and Guan Zhilin once acted together in the movie "Dancing of the Warblers" in 1988, and the actor was Zheng Shaoqiu. At that time, Qiu Guan was 41 years old, come to appreciate the ageless beauty.

▲ The drama of getting wet or something, of course, must be arranged for Lizhi. The Hong Kong movies of those years were indeed from a male perspective and objectified women, which was too serious.

Although Li Zhi has a sexy label, she is a very traditional and conservative woman in her bones, she was asked when she appeared on Huang Zhan's "No Defense Tonight", why she has not shown her small waist? Li Zhi said "I want to leave it to my husband to be the first to see";

A magazine was willing to spend 20 million Hong Kong dollars to ask Li Zhi to take a photo, but Li Zhi also refused, because he was "afraid that it would be difficult to find a husband in the future".

Li Zhi is most talked about is the scandal legend between her and Stanley Ho, in fact, there is not much intersection between the two, Li Zhi came to the stage at an awards party, and Stanley Ho sat in the audience to watch:

The only time the two have had public contact is the photo everyone has seen, Li Zhi and Stanley Ho dancing:

In fact, it was in 1990, Li Zhi took the lead in forming the charity organization "Renmei Qingxu" to start, Li Zhi, as the first chairman, danced with the big donor Stanley Ho, and at that time Stanley Ho also danced with other Asian sisters.

Here again, we will mention this "Renmei Qingxu", we once wrote about "Huiyan Yaji", which is a charitable organization composed of previous Hong Kong sisters, and its influence has surged;

And the "Renmei Qingxu" for "Sister Ya" is also an organization of the same nature, Li Zhi is the president of the first session, but Li Zhi later disappeared, married a woman to wash her hands and make soup, Sister Ya lacked a representative to take over, and this charitable organization disappeared.

▲ Li Zhi, the first chairman of "Renmei Qingxu". Image source watermark.

In recent years, "Renmei Qingxu" has been reorganized, and every few years, the president shouted to the media that he wanted to invite the senior sister Li Zhi to come out of the mountain again, but Li Zhi has always been mysterious and has never agreed.

The legend of Li Zhi and Stanley Ho is still quite mysterious, and it was rumored that the fourth wife Liang Anqi couldn't rub sand in her eyes, thinking that Li Zhi was "a fox and bewitching the lord", and used means to expel Li Zhi from Hong Kong. Now that so many years have passed, people have found out that her youngest daughter He Chaoxin looks more and more like Li Zhi. But this is a far-fetched legend after all, so let's take a look.

Li Zhi ran for Sister Asia in 1986 to announced her retirement in 1992, in just six years, she lived very unhappy in Hong Kong, in addition to the hard work of making movies, there were overwhelming ridicule, humiliation and malice, which made her physically and mentally exhausted, and often cried in the face of the media.

Perhaps because of this, when she met Jet Li in 1988, they quickly fell in love with each other with the same background (both grew up in the mainland) and the same predicament (both at a low point).

In 1988, Jet Li returned to Hong Kong from the United States to shoot the movie "Dragon in the World" and met the heroine Li Zhi.

▲ "Dragon in the World" is the first and only collaboration between Jet Li and Stephen Chow.

This time of cooperation, sparks flew and the earth was shocking, Jet Li quickly fell in love with Li Zhi, and felt that "I can die for her." At that time, his wife Huang Qiuyan was pregnant with her second daughter in the United States, and he couldn't take care of his wife, so he devoted himself to the gentle township of Lizhi.

Interestingly, Li Zhi confessed to Jet Li that there are many suitors and rich people, while Jet Li said, I have nothing but all I have.

Jet Li decided to divorce Huang Qiuyan, and the solution was to leave the house and give Huang Qiuyan a large sum of money, and the other two daughters were raised by Jet Li, who handed over the daughters to his mother in Beijing to raise, and later sponsored them to go to universities in the United States.

Although Jet Li has repeatedly emphasized in various interviews that he did not treat his ex-wife and daughter badly, and the schools he attended for his daughter were top-notch, the name of "abandoning his wife and daughter" always followed him. Huang Qiuyan quit the film industry after she became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter, and it is said that she later remarried and started the beauty industry, compared to her superstar ex-husband Jet Li, she lived an ordinary life.

In 2015, the main creator of "Shaolin Kid" reunited in Beijing, as the hero and heroine in the play, Jet Li and his ex-wife Huang Qiuyan both attended, and the two also took a group photo in the same frame.

According to media reports, when Huang Qiuyan remarried, Jet Li also wrapped a big red envelope, and it seems that he has laughed at his enmity. At this point, Jet Li, like many old-fashioned big men, even though he is suspected of abandoning his bad wife, but if he gives money, public opinion will be much more tolerant, after all, there are still too many people who don't even give money.

There are many similar examples in the entertainment industry, and the scripts are the same, such as Zhao Benshan, whom we once wrote.

▲Jet Li and Zhang Xinyan.

And Jet Li and Li Zhi are much more affectionate. Since they met in 1988 due to filming, they have been together, and their relationship has gradually shifted from underground to aboveground. The two have a "ten-year covenant", which means to test whether the true love between them is true and whether they can withstand the test of time, and in 1999, they officially got married.

▲ The two bought a mansion in Los Angeles, which was really brilliant and magnificent.

▲ The wedding scene, the watermark of the source.

In 1990, after falling in love with Li Zhi, Jet Li's career took off again.

He met Tsui Hark in the United States, and Tsui Hark invited him to shoot new martial arts classics such as "Once Upon a Time", "Once Upon a Time II: Men Should Be Self-Reliant", and "Smiling Proud Jianghu II Undefeated in the East", establishing his status as a Chinese kung fu superstar. This is the peak of Jet Li's career, and his roles as Huang Feihong and Fang Shiyu are the best in the minds of many audiences, and the name of "Kung Fu Emperor" has also spread since then.

▲ The classic character Huang Feihong, this pose was popular all over the country back then.

▲ "Thirteen Aunts" is also a classic role in Guan Zhilin's film career.

▲ According to media reports that year, Jet Li cooperated with popular actresses such as Zhang Min, Li Zi, Guan Zhilin, Lin Qingxia, Li Jiaxin, Qiu Shuzhen, etc., the source watermark.

▲ In "Smiling Proud Jianghu", Jet Li plays Ling Hu Chong.

▲Jet Li and Tsui Hark participated in the event together.

▲Jet Li only thanked two directors in the new book, one is Zhang Xinyan, the director of "Shaolin Temple", and the other is Tsui Hark.

▲ In 1993, "Fang Shiyu" directed by Yuan Kui was also extremely popular after it was broadcast in the mainland, and the source watermark.

▲Jet Li and Lin Qingxia on the set, the source watermark.

Since Jet Li's career has risen, Li Zhi has gradually faded out of the public's sight, on the one hand, because she has no nostalgia for the entertainment industry, and may have suffered a lot of grievances before; on the other hand, it is also Jet Li's clear request, "I don't want both of them to be in the entertainment industry, you will make it difficult for me in the future":

At the same time, Li Zhi began to buy and speculate on real estate, helping her husband take care of his property, and Jet Li had 151 villas for sale during the peak period, which was also quite amazing.

On April 19, 2000, Jet Li and Li Zhi's eldest daughter Jane was born, and in 2003, the second daughter Jetta was born. Counting his ex-wife's two daughters, Jet Li has four daughters successively.

Bizarre life and death experiences

Jet Li's later belief in Buddhism may be related to his bizarre life and death experience, the most bizarre of which is that in the early morning of April 16, 1992, Jet Li's agent Cai Ziming was sniped by 2 gunmen and died on the spot with 6 bullets at the age of 38.

And on the day Cai Ziming was attacked, it happened to be the day of the release of Huang Feihong's second "Men Should Be Self-Improvement". According to many people, Cai Ziming is discussing with Jet Li to shoot the next movie "New Dragon Gate Inn", and the heroes and heroines are Jet Li and Michelle Yeoh.

▲ source watermark

Not long ago, Jet Li fell out with his old club Golden Harvest because of the salary problem, and the matter was widely spread in the community, and people thought that it was Golden Harvest's deliberate revenge, and they were unwilling to let Cai Ziming get this "cash cow".

▲Golden Harvest Company did not pay Jet Li's salary as scheduled, and when Jet Li asked for the remaining 3 million salary, he was suppressed by Golden Harvest Company, causing Jet Li's strong dissatisfaction. In order to resist the suppression of Golden Harvest Company, Jet Li resolutely stopped filming "Men Should Be Self-Improvement" halfway through the filming, which will cause huge losses to Golden Harvest Company, which caused an uproar, and later Cai Ziming came forward and became Jet Li's agent.

After Cai Ziming's death, his project "New Dragon Gate Inn" was also yellow, and later Wu Siyuan took over, the director was still Tsui Hark, and the starring roles were all replaced, which is the one we see now:

It is worth mentioning that Cai Ziming and Cecilia Cheung's father "Hu Xu Yong" are business partners, and the "Fuyi Film Company" co-founded by the two often brings stars to the Netherlands to act.

▲Cai Ziming's original surname was Ou, he grew up in Guangzhou, and was the leader of the Guangzhou Children's Party when he was a child. Cai applied to come to Hong Kong alone through his relatives in Hong Kong, because he was cheerful and ruthless, and soon he was able to take charge of himself in Hong Kong and contract large renovation projects. Later he went to the Netherlands to develop. In the 80s of the last century, there were many triad societies in Hong Kong, and "14K" gained the initiative in Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, and Mong Kok, which was unstoppable. "14K" boss Beard Yong met Cai Ziming, who was quite successful in business, on a vacation in the Netherlands in 1986, and introduced the Hong Kong film industry to Cai Ziming, and the two hit it off.

After returning to Hong Kong, Cai Ziming founded the "Rich Film Company" in 1988, and Hu Xu Yong held a 10% stake. Cai Ziming's investment in the filming of "Booming Dragon and Tiger Club" brought Andy Lau, Carina Lau, Wan Ziliang and other actors to the Netherlands to make movies, we mentioned earlier that Carina Lau was kidnapped, and afterwards she said that the underworld tied her to the Netherlands and made a movie for free, this is it.

"Booming Dragon and Tiger" also became the only film in history that was recognized as coerced by the underworld, although the hero and heroine died after the opening five minutes......

▲Cecilia Cheung also has a father named Hu Xuyong, but he is not alone

▲ Hu Xuyong's birthday, the police have to mobilize "half a hundred anti-black agents"......

▲In 2022, Cecilia Cheung posted a photo with her father.

Regarding this matter, everyone in the circle seems to know who the murderer is, but there is no evidence and the case has not been solved.

After this incident, Jet Li is a little unable to get along in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, because no one dares to be his agent anymore, after all, whoever is in danger of his life, at this time, Jet Li went to find a bigger pier is to Xiang Huaqiang and his wife, signed a contract, Jet Li filmed diligently, and paid Huaqiang his salary (there are also media reports that Li Zhi's property speculation failed in those years, and Jet Li repaid the money for filming).

Later, Jet Li and Xiang Huaqiang became good friends, Jet Li rarely interacted with celebrities in the circle, but he and Xiang Tai's family moved around frequently, and Xiang Tai's big and small affairs could invite Jet Li to cheer, probably this is the meaning of sending charcoal in the snow.

▲ Li Zhi and Xiang Huaqiang when they were young.

Jet Li also accepted Xiang Zuo as his apprentice, and because of this, Xiang Zuo can participate in Ma Yun's "Gong Shou Dao".

In recent years, Jet Li's death has been frequently reported, and Xiang Tai has also become Jet Li's exclusive channel to refute rumors:

Jet Li's second life and death experience is that in 2004 when he was on vacation in the Maldives, he and Xiang Tai's family went on vacation together, Jet Li accompanied his two daughters on the beach, the tsunami came suddenly, almost drowning over his head, and the youngest daughter was also washed away, fortunately, there were staff rescued, it was indeed very thrilling.

It can be said that Jet Li has experienced too many twists and turns in the past 20 years, and his experience is too legendary, from a poor child in Beijing, to become a kung fu emperor in just a few years, with huge wealth, married two beautiful wives, and experienced the bloody storm in the entertainment industry, gangster coercion, involved in murders, and traveled to the United States many times, experiencing life and death.

So after the millennium, Jet Li slowed down his career and began to devote himself to Buddha.

The current situation of Jet Li and his daughters

Jet Li wrote a lot about practicing Buddhism in the book, although his physical condition was already very bad, he often had to go to Tibet and other places to visit Buddhism, and he suffered severe altitude sickness and even shock many times.

▲Jet Li retreats and cultivates.

His health is indeed worrying, on the one hand, he was overdrawn too much when he was young, and his body was full of injuries, either broken arms or broken legs, and he had to take a lot of painkillers every time he made a movie.

In recent years, he has suffered from hyperthyroidism and bulging eyes, and in the book he details the treatment process and his own tangled mentality, and he is deeply worried that his change in appearance means that he will no longer be able to make movies.

In fact, Jet Li has basically been semi-retired since he studied Buddhism, and the filming speed is about one a year (the last one is to play the emperor in the movie "Mulan" starring Liu Yifei), but fortunately, Li Zhi should have a lot of experience in investment and financial management, Jet Li revealed that he still doesn't know how many bank accounts he has at home, and he will hand it over to his wife to maintain and manage his value anyway.

His whole body and mind are devoted to cultivating Buddhism, and the practice of Buddhism runs through all aspects of his life, such as going to the hospital to promote Buddhism to doctors, such as inviting monks to practice in the hospital when Li Zhi gave birth to his daughter, and the doctors and nurses in the United States were stunned.

When a family member is sick, the first thing that comes to mind is to visit the famous place to pray for blessings.

▲ My sister is sick, Jet Li decided to "pay tribute to the four famous mountains".

▲Jet Li's mother also believes in Buddhism, and he recorded that his young mother vowed not to eat four-legged animals in order to treat her relatives.

Jet Li also hopes that his daughter will be a Buddhist since she was a child.

▲Jet Li's two daughters.

The eldest daughter is 19 years old this year and is said to be a top student, "Bachelor of Arts and Science from Harvard University".

Jet Li is extremely fond of her, and has taken her to meet various celebrities since she was a child, and until now, Jet Li always likes to take her on any major occasions.

When he was very young, he was a dancer at Andy Lau's concert:

has dealings with many celebrities:

▲Jet Li and his eldest daughter went to see Xiang Zuo's daughter together.

Everyday love of play, love of partying:

The body shape is very standard:

In 2019, she participated in the Paris Ladies Ball (Bal Des Debutantes), and Jet Li also accompanied her throughout the whole process, taking pictures of her daughter, full of fatherly love.

There was also Qiu Shuzhen's daughter Shen Yue at that Paris celebrity ball:

And Qiu Shuzhen and Jet Li once collaborated on "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and they also have a relationship.

The youngest daughter has a bit of twists and turns, Jet Li said that she had depression at the age of 7 and suicidal tendencies at the age of 13, but the daughter did not communicate with her parents, but just searched for treatment on the Internet by herself.

One day, the youngest daughter took the initiative to study Buddhism with her father to treat her emotions, so Jet Li always took her with him when he went to practice. Now the youngest daughter is probably still studying.

▲ Little woman.

As for Li Zhi, he has always been very mysterious and low-key, never showing his head, and occasionally appears on Jet Li or his daughter's social accounts.

It can be seen from Jet Li's various interviews that Li Zhi's main life is to educate her daughter, she is a tiger mother style, she treats her daughter very harshly, and in addition, she helps Jet Li manage her finances. Jet Li said that when he meditated, "his wife went to watch TV for a while, and asked if he was hungry for a while", and he also complained that it affected his cultivation.

Jet Li said that she doesn't have any friends, never socializes, and stays at home every day. And Jet Li's compensation is to "give her the greatest sense of security", that is, give her all the money. In the book, Jet Li wrote that they were "husband and wife fellow practitioners", and probably Li Zhi was also a senior Buddhist.

And the two daughters born to his ex-wife are even more submerged in the vast sea of people, and Jet Li has never posted a photo of his daughter. Some images are circulating on the Internet, but there is no way to verify the authenticity, and the source is also very vague, and their sisters are most likely ordinary people.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Jet Li and his wife are simply happy, but through the book he wrote, we see the so-called "troubles of the lucky ones".

Jet Li is taking a golden road, in him we see the greatest possible class jump after the 60s, Jet Li still came from a poor family that was so poor that he would cry even if he lost 30 yuan, in just a few years, he became a kung fu star in China and even in Asia, from Beijing to Hong Kong, from sports schools to the entertainment industry, the span is not small;

At the same time, he also has to actively adapt to different cultural atmospheres, different social styles, in the face of relatively grouped Hong Kong people, as a mainland actor, he can take the lead in opening up a piece of the sky in Hong Kong, of course, it is also powerful, which is largely due to the fact that he does have real kung fu, and it happens to coincide with the golden age of martial arts movies.

However, in this huge disparity in life switching, after getting huge money, fame and a happy family, Jet Li seems to have fallen into a more confused spiritual world.

At first, he wanted to get rid of the stereotype that "martial arts athletes have simple minds and well-developed limbs", and later he thought that money and fame cannot make people happy, so what makes people happy? He believes that Buddhism is the only way.

I think that during his years in Hong Kong or the United States, he never seemed to have a real sense of group recognition, even though he was already very rich.

He seems to have always had the mark of an "outsider", he has gained great fame and fortune, but at the same time he also has to face huge pressure, whether it is physical or life, all of this requires strong physical and mental strength to face, beyond the realm of ordinary people's control, many years of high-pressure life may be the cause of hyperthyroidism, although Jet Li tries to be light and light.

Wang Weizhong pointed to the key point in the talk show with Jet Li: "This disease (hyperthyroidism) is stressful", while Jet Li denied: "I'm not under much pressure." And if you are mentally confused, you may only be able to rely on the power of the Dharma.

As for the mysterious wife Li Zhi behind him, he seems to have an inexhaustible heart for many years, how to take care of his husband's more and more money, how to support her husband's crisis-ridden spiritual world, and how her two daughters enter the top fame and fortune circle.

We also seem to see some kind of Kota's troubles in her.

Li Zhi was too beautiful when she was young, and there were not too many people who coveted her, which caused her to be very alert to the outside world, and in those years of bravely entering the Hong Kong entertainment industry, all the focus was on her figure, and these film and television works did not bring her too many good memories.

However, not having contact with society for a long time, let alone having no friends, and serving your husband and children wholeheartedly will lead to many problems, such as the closure of your own world, the cessation of self-growth, and the limitation of your own vitality.

Many women who are gifted, intelligent and beautiful actually have no less energy than their husbands, but after returning to the family, their world has suddenly become smaller, and if they have no friends, no interpersonal support system, and no interests and hobbies of their own, their self-isolation will become more and more serious.

At this time, there are two possibilities in psychology, one is the atrophy of self-energy, they dissolve themselves and become one with their husbands, forming a symbiotic relationship, and the other is to escalate to control freaks, focusing all their attention on their husbands and children, so that their families are overwhelmed.

▲ A few years ago, in the photos posted by her sister Jada, 57-year-old Li Zhi did not use powder, maintained a slender figure, and took care of everything for his family.

This is the so-called "troubles of the lucky ones", who have everything, wealth, fame, ideal partners, excellent children, but are still in constant frustration and sorrow.

What is the reason for this?

In a psychological sense, happiness is more of a habit of thinking and value, "because human beings do not learn to be satisfied in possession, human beings learn to be satisfied in loss, and learn to cherish in disappointment." ”

A lot of people who seem to be unhappy are very content and happy, but people who get too much always feel that the world is not what I want it to be, and Buddhism calls greed, hatred, and naivety, which is the source of all afflictions.

Life is long, there are many difficulties, most people run for too little, and many people are troubled by too much, this is the meaning of the world's suffering, no matter which way you go, you have your own tests and practices, it is good to be able to transcend life and death, but it is more difficult to surpass yourself.
