Jet Li’s name must be familiar to everyone. Known as the emperor of Kung Fu, he has portrayed many classic characters, such as Fang Shiyu, Huang Feihong, Zhang Sanfeng, etc., a man who became self-improvement was also popular across the country, and many people are also because of this. I know this energetic Kung Fu superstar, but Jet Li has a "Jing Wu Hero" now known as the textbook of the world Kung Fu movie, but the box office was dismal.
"Jingwu Hero" was released in Hong Kong at the time, along with "God of Gamblers 2", "Domestic Lingling Paint" and "Nine Pin Sesame Officials". At that time, Wang Jing's gambling style was popular with Xingye's nonsensical comedy. This classic action movie has not caught the eye of the audience. The box office was only 17 of that year, only 15 million.
For this reason, Chen Jia, the director of "Jing Wu Hero", also apologized to Jet Li, saying that he had failed Jet Li’s hard work, but Jet Li said, it’s okay. This is the best movie I have ever made. He cannot be measured by the box office. He is the best.
The facts are just like Jet Li said. Today, "Jing Wu Hero" has a very good reputation. It is recognized as a world kung fu film textbook and is regarded as a classic by countless people. Quentin Tarantino, who is known as a talented director in Hollywood, also wrote it. It was full of praise, saying that "Kill Bill" was affected by it, and some netizens said that the box office of the film was bleak, just because it was too far ahead, and it was definitely a big hit when it was pushed back ten years.
is worth mentioning is the Japanese heroine Nakayama Shinobu in the film. Her innocent image attracted many fans. At the time of filming, she had an affair with Jet Li. Now she is still not married in her 40s. There are rumors that she was waiting for Jet Li.
Today's Jet Li is already suffering from injuries and can no longer make movies, but fans will never forget such a kung fu emperor.
