Without Bruce Lee, there would be no me. Bruce Lee is my role model.
Bruce Lee is my idol. The first movie I saw in the theater when I was a child was starred by him. After seeing several movies starring him in succession, I decided to be a martial artist or an actor. Now all I strive for is because of him. He is a special case in the history of Hong Kong film. He is one of the ten thousand people. He has the talent of martial arts, and he has the advantage of time, place and people. To me, he is not only a martial artist, but also a creative person. His idea of martial arts is different from any previous school. He is always different from others. Many places are historic. There is also his vision. Think about it. Before him, Kung Fu didn't know about other places except the local market. But because of Bruce Lee, Chinese Kung Fu and Kung Fu are very successful
