Life:

First, the birth background

Born in Guangdong, he moved to Hong Kong at the age of 2, and 1 1 immigrated to Boston, USA. Mother Bow Sim Mark is a world-famous martial arts master and Tai Chi master. She founded the internationally renowned China Martial Arts Institute and has been teaching Donnie Yen to practice martial arts since he was able to walk, laying a good foundation for his traditional martial arts. My father, Zhen Yunlong, is the Boston editor of Sing Tao Daily, an international Chinese newspaper. He can play the violin and erhu, which is a China stringed instrument with similar timbre to the violin. Donnie Yen also studied classical piano and liked Chopin. Music became another source of inspiration in his life. Donnie Yen grew up in his mother's martial arts atmosphere, and he was eager to acquire martial arts knowledge. He watched almost all the martial arts films he could see. At this time, he met his idol Bruce Lee, and gradually learned various styles of martial arts, including various fighting techniques. However, the rebellious Donnie Yen worried his parents so much that he was sent to the Wushu Team of the famous Shichahai Sports School in Beijing for two years. Donnie Yen became the first non-mainland student, and won the national Wushu Shaolin boxing championship in China with 1973 (the latter champion was Jet Li) [source request]. 1982 After returning to the United States, he won the championship in the martial arts competition in the United States, which made Donnie Yen famous in foreign martial arts circles.

Second, the road to performing arts

After two years of training in Beijing Wushu Team, on his way back to the United States, he passed by Hong Kong and was introduced to the film director Yuan Heping. Yuan Heping is looking for a new kung fu star. After meeting Donnie Yen, I greatly appreciated Donnie Yen's physical quality and skills. Before starring in the first film "Little Taiji", I was Yuan Heping's brother and actor body double in Kaohsiung Daoshu No.2 Middle School. 19 years old, starring Donnie Yen, making his first appearance in Little Taiji. Subsequently, Donnie Yen starred in other works of Yuan Heping, and determined the way of performing arts.

In the 1990s, with the decline of traditional Kung Fu movies, Donnie Yen turned to Hong Kong TV circle for development, and performed many police roles with good skills, but the most noteworthy works should be Hong Xiguan, a Shaolin military commander, and Jingwumen. Because the former played Hong Xiguan, a famous martial arts master in Qing Dynasty, and because Donnie Yen had never studied Hongquan, he tried to figure it out with his own martial arts knowledge, and his performance was remarkable and amazing. The latter is the TV version of the movie of the same name. Because the role played by Zhen Chen has been played by Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li and so on, and many classic pictures in movies have been specially remake in the play, so that people who have seen this TV series can directly call Donnie Yen Zhen Chen on the street.

Third, behind-the-scenes learning

Although Donnie Yen was able to cooperate with the famous director Yuan Heping when she made her debut, she still studied from time to time, especially in directing and action design. Except for the works that I participated in as an action designer at first, such as The Battle of Clubs 1992 in Huang Feihong II: A Man Should Stand on His Own, they are all creative ideas from Donnie Yen. Since then, Donnie Yen has become more and more involved in behind-the-scenes activities.

1996 directly became the director, directing and starring in The Legend of War Wolf. Because it was the first time directed, the cost of this film did not exceed $500,000, but it was widely praised when it was released, and the copyright was sold to all countries in the world, becoming a new idol of the Japanese. From 65438 to 0998, Donnie Yen directed and performed Killing and Dancing for the second time. Yukie Nishimura, a famous Japanese composer, watched The Legend of War Wolf and volunteered to compose the music for the film. However, the film was suddenly hit by the Asian financial turmoil in the process of shooting, and the shooting cost was less than 500 thousand dollars. The box office was not good when it was released, but it was recognized by film critics. Not only has he been nominated for the best director many times, but also internationally.

Donnie Yen's first two films were well received at low cost, and were nominated for best director and best film. Especially in recent years, his works have won the Best Action Design Award every year, which fully shows that Donnie Yen's performance behind the scenes is also brilliant.

Fourth, enter the international arena.

Although Donnie Yen has long been exposed on international occasions by the legend of war wolves, killing and dancing, he has officially become an international artist. He was one of the directors who participated in the TV series "Code: Puma" in Berlin, Germany in 1999. Because of the good ratings, Donnie Yen got the opportunity of Hollywood movies in the United States, and acted as an action director in addition to acting.

Although he didn't really participate in Hollywood film performances, Donnie Yen is fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin, and has both eastern and western cultural backgrounds. Donnie Yen's name is familiar not only to the Chinese world, but also to westerners. In recent years, although Donnie Yen has been deeply involved in the film market in China, in fact, Seven Swords, Fuse, Jiangshan Beauty and so on. It is still shown directly in foreign theaters.

Five, martial arts principles

No matter what style you are, please make your foundation perfect. Only in this way can you have a chance to become a pioneer in martial arts faster. Whether it is martial arts or boxing, only constant basic training is the secret to achieving Excellence.

Cultivate your physical competitive quality. This may be the problem of most modern martial arts pioneers. No matter what style of martial arts, good physical fitness is an important factor to support you to complete long-term hard training.

Emphasize "strength" in your movements. Top boxers use strength as well as eastern martial artists. We can learn this important way of energy utilization from China traditional Wushu.

It takes several years to diversify and adapt to different rules, and it also takes you several years to form a neutral style different from other martial arts styles.

We should learn both practical and decorative movements. Contrary to what most people think, a serious martial artist can achieve excellent fighting ability while looking strange. Remember, a good boxer looks as good as a martial artist.
