Trivia
Was offered a role in X2 (2003) but turned it down because "If I start
making films like that, they won't be proud. I'd feel like I was
cheating. And I don't want half the world, we have 1.3 billion people
in China, to know I'm cheating. That matters to me. I have more pride
than that."
Quotes
No matter where I'm going, I feel like I'm leaving something behind. Every time I get on a plane, I cry. The flight attendants on Cathay Pacific must think I'm mad.
