Jet Li rejected the film because of low pay, but now it has become a classic in film history.

everyone is familiar with Jet Li. Many people in the 80s and 90s grew up watching his films. Although he is now old, he has a very important position in the hearts of countless people.

His movie box office is also very high, and his salary has reached tens of millions of dollars, but few people know that he has refused an offer for a movie, just because he originally offered 1300 Ten thousand dollars in remuneration, but the other party is unable to meet this condition, and this movie is the Matrix.

​​He found Jet Li and hoped that he could shoot the second part, but Jet Li said 13 million US dollars, because he couldn't satisfy him, so there was no Jet Li in the second part. At that time, Jet Li's "Dragon Kiss" also had a good box office, but it is understood that the Matrix is ​​more popular. Now hacker movies have become classics. The gossip Jet Li participated in the program "A Date with Luyu". During the program, he talked about his upcoming performance in "Mulan" starring Liu Yifei. In addition, he also revealed for the first time why he refused to play The Matrix. .

"The Matrix" is a movie directed by the Wachowski Brothers and starring Keanu Reeves. A total of 3 movies have been made. After its release, it has caused a great upsurge all over the world, and it has achieved quite a lot in both box office and word of mouth. Not bad results, but also won a number of awards, for the later development of the film also had a very profound impact. In fact, this movie originally invited Li Lianjie to act in the film, but Jet Li refused. It is said that the reason why he refused at the time was because the film party's pay did not meet his expectations.

Actually, both his fans and netizens feel very strange about Jet Li, because Jet Li's development in Hollywood at the beginning naturally needs a work that can give him a foothold, and "The Matrix" is undoubtedly the best opportunity for Jet Li to become famous. , But Jet Li rejected such a good opportunity because of the salary issue. Naturally, some of the gains were not worth the loss. However, Jet Li stated in "Luyu You Have a Treaty" that he did not reject it for this reason, but that Hollywood did too much. Up.

In fact, Jet Li only took 3 months to shoot "The Matrix," but what I didn’t expect was that Hollywood companies asked Jet Li to stay for 6 more months on the basis of these 3 months, but Jet Li did not Not participating in the filming of "The Matrix", he was required to record all his martial arts movements with a computer, and the copyright of the movements belonged to the production company. If Jet Li did so, then Chinese Kung Fu would become the copyright of Hollywood. This is really too much.

Fortunately, Jet Li rejected the shameless request of the Hollywood company. How can it be given to foreigners that not only Chinese Kung Fu is the ancestor? I don't know if Jet Li will feel sorry.
