Many years ago, while shooting with Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao in Europe, I remember a guy who taught us many things. His stories were very fresh and inspiring for us youngsters. He told us that he already knew how to enjoy life when he was very young because from his point of view, enjoying life is the true way to cherish life. He always took us out for a good time; taught us wine tasting and collecting valuable items; and also taught us many ideas about filmmaking. That’s why I have full respect for him as my “half-master”. His name is Chua Lam (I usually call him Chua-san). I was on the set when I heard the news my “half-master” had passed away. The first thing that surfaced in my mind were the times we filmed together overseas. Back then, he taught me many meaningful lessons, and it wasn’t until later in life that I started to slowly understand. I recall him saying how our time on earth is about learning how to live, how to die, and how to survive. And the most important thing in life depends on whether you’re happy or not. I know that he lived a free-spirited and joyful life, which is most important. Chua-san once said, “People eventually leave in life. You can miss them, but don’t miss them too much.” I would like to say to him, rest in peace. Just like many other people around the world, I will always miss you.

From my humble beginnings as an unknown martial artist on the set, working my way to where I am today; from wanting to work for just a meal, to being recognized by so many people around the world watching my movies. I always keep telling myself one simple thing, that is to make sure each shot captured is a good take. I couldn’t achieve these valuable moments on film alone, these memories were made possible with the help of my brothers (the JC Stunt Team). We used our lives to capture those unforgettable scenes. I’d like to thank the Locarno Film Festival for presenting me the prestigious career achievement award, Pardo alla Carriera. Also a big thank you to all my fans all over the world!

Even before today, many friends have been reminding me: “Jackie, it’s going to be your 70th birthday!” Every time I hear this number, my heart would stop for a second - l’m 70 years old already? After recovering from the shock, the second thing that would come to my mind is a saying that my big brother, Sammo Hung once said: “being able to grow old is a fortunate thing.” Especially for us stunt people, we don’t know how lucky we are to be able to grow old. Not so long ago, a lot of friends saw some recent photos of me on the internet, and they were all concerned about my health. I want to take this opportunity to let everyone know, don’t worry! It’s just a character appearance for my latest movie. The character requires me to have white hair, white beard and look old. Over the years, I’ve always been willing to try new things for a movie, no matter if it’s a challenging stunt or a breakthrough appearance for a character. I’ve been in the entertainment business for 62 years and I cherish every moment because I’m lucky I’m still filming today. Recently my staff have been going through my photo archives and found so many memorable photos. I’ve selected a few to post with this message. Looking at these photos brings back so many fond memories. All I can say is: I love making movies and I love you all. A big thank you to everyone for all your birthday wishes. Hope everyone stays happy and healthy!
