What is the first reaction to mentioning Chinese foreigners abroad?
That, of course, is "Chinese Kung Fu.".
When people think of kung fu, they will think of jet Li, the "emperor of kung fu".
Jet Li ran away to Hong Kong in the 1980s and 1990s when Hong Kongers discriminated against mainlanders.
In the 21st century, when the mainland market was dominant, it changed its nationality.
Otherwise, in today's situation of those who are not ranked in the mainland in the 1980s and 1990s, all of whom have become artists, Jet Li will be the god of the gods.
In 1963. Jet Li was born into a poor family in Beijing to ordinary workers to parents.
His father died when Jet Li was two years old, and in order to reduce the burden on the family, Jet Li sometimes helped his mother do some physical work.
In 1971, Jet Li met the noble man of his life, Wu Bin.
Wu Bin took a fancy to Jet Li's surprised skeleton, so he proposed to Jet Li's mother the idea of accepting Jet Li as a disciple.
Jet Li's mother immediately agreed, one can reduce the burden on the family, and the other is to let Jet Li learn one more craft.
Jet Li met his ex-wife Huang Qiuyan in the process of studying under Wu Bin.
Huang Qiuyan is his sister, dare to love and hate, strong personality, family is also considered to be medium conditions, the disparity between the two sides of the family conditions, but also did not prevent them from coming together, in 1982 the two began to co-produce three movies "Shaolin Temple", "Shaolin Boy", "North and South Shaolin", overnight all over the country.
In 1987, Jet Li and Huang Qiuyan, who looked talented and female, finally got married, the two gathered less and more, the eldest daughter Li Si was born in 1988, in July 1988, Jet Li went to the United States to develop, and on July 16, 1989, Li Timmy was born.
In 1990, Jet Li announced that he was out of the house, and Huang Qiuyan also agreed to divorce, and after the divorce, the two daughters were handed over to Jet Li's mother Zhang Fenglan to take care of.
In 1992, Huang Qiuyan also filmed some small-scale films in Hong Kong, and in the same year, she returned to San Francisco with her two daughters to work and live, and they also became American citizens, but unfortunately suffered from depression due to the extreme pressure of life.
After the divorce, Huang Qiuyan and Jet Li's mother still have a very good relationship, and they still call their mothers affectionately when they see the old man.
On the other side, Jet Li has long been famous all over the world, and his family is full of wealth.
Jet Li and Li Zhi met in the 1989 film "The Dragon at the End of the World" directed by Xu Ke.
Li Zhi was called "a rare beauty in 50 years" by the great talent Ni Kuang, who once made many big figures salivate, and there have been rumors, such as the gambling king He Hongshen, the eldest brother Jackie Chan and so on.
Of course, Jet Li has also played with female stars such as Guan Zhilin and Xu Jinglei, and there have been rumors, no way, who let them have talented men and women?
Li Zhi quit the show business circle in 1992, fell in love with Jet Li for 10 years, and married in Los Angeles in 1999, became pregnant in the same year, was born with Li Zhi's eldest daughter Jane the following year, and was born with Li Zhi's younger daughter Jada in 2003.
Many years ago, Jet Li mentioned two relationships.
The relationship with Huang Qiuyan is more because of the ignorance of youth, and the gratitude and dependence are mistaken for love.
In fact, after two people are together, they find that it is not suitable, and they can still be friends after a peaceful breakup, which is the best.
At the end of 2004, Jet Li experienced the South Asian tsunami and witnessed his life disappear in an instant, which made him even more perfected after seeing through the red dust.
In 2013, 54-year-old Jet Li was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, and four daughters took care of her next to him.
When jet Li was seen again in 2021, a photo of him sitting in a dimly lit and damp cave meditating and praying for blessings went viral online.
Jet Li in the photo has no eyes, weak and haggard, and really lacks the majesty of the "Kung Fu Emperor" of that year.
It's very painful.
Jet Li's life is extremely controversial.
Career-wise, he was successful.
Emotionally, he didn't do it so perfectly.
In short, there is no perfect person in the world.
People should see his success at the same time, but also accept his failure.
