A Billion People, and You Still Can’t Make a Decent Action Movie?

In this world, overseas audiences get Mission: Impossible, with Tom Cruise climbing the Burj Khalifa and hanging off a plane; Fast & Furious, with Dwayne Johnson and Dom Toretto trading bone-crunching blows in a fierce showdown; and Taken, with its exhilarating revenge fights...

But at home, there isn't a single good action movie or a single action superstar.

A young heartthrob is invited to Hollywood to shoot The Expendables, and his fans go wild.

Yet less than three days into filming, the heartthrob is fired by the crew!

He can't handle hardship, lacks professionalism, and his action scenes have no force...

Mockery floods in from every direction.

“With a population of over a billion, can't you produce even one real tough guy? Can't you train even one action star?”

Xia Long says, “I will!”

The Chinese Connection, Way of the Dragon... He makes his first mark!

Fist of Legend, SPL, Flash Point, Ip Man... He becomes famous around the world!

His astonishing leap in Rumble in the Bronx shocks the globe!
