NEWS: Jet Li’s first movie was Shaolin Temple, a

NEWS: Jet Li’s first movie was Shaolin Temple, a film shot in China but produced by the small Hong Kong company Chung Yuen Film Company, which had signed Li to a three-film contract. Shaolin Temple was shot on location at the famed Shaolin Monastery, which was in decline due to the Cultural Revolution.⁠
Although Shaolin Temple was a Chinese film, it had an experienced Hong Kong director in the form of Cheung Sing-yim. Cheung had co-directed the The Jade Bow in 1966, the Cantonese martial arts film which brought the talents of choreographers Lau Kar-leung and Tong Kai to public attention.⁠
As Chung Yuen Film Company was a small outfit, it could not afford well-known actors, so Cheung cast wushu experts from China as they would not need to be trained. Along with Li, these included Woo Gin-keung, the national wushu champion of 1981 and 1982, Yu Cheng-hui, a renowned master of the ancient “two-handed sword”, and Yu Hai, an expert in Mantis-style kung fu. #wushu #jetli #shaolin #shaolintemple #hongkong #yuhai #yuchenghui #jiayo

Samantha Win represented Canada at the 2006 and 2008 Pan-American Wushu Championships, the 2007 World Wushu Championships and the 2008 Beijing Wushu tournament.⁠
She is a former stuntwoman and Canadian actress who is currently making her mark in the Hollywood film industry. She is now acting in Zack Snyder’s latest zombie movie, “Army of the Dead”, where she plays the role of a trendy yet strong woman named Chambers.⁠
"The reason I became obsessed with it was because I saw Jet Li performing and I thought his movements was so beautiful and his work was so beautiful, and so I thought I want to be just like I him. I took it up and fell in love with the sport, people, and the community that it attracts. It was just the time of my life. But the training part of it was very challenging, it made me who I am today."⁠

Three years ago, when Niu Yilin was 8, she and some friends joined a free course of instruction in a traditional martial art in her home village in Anhui province.⁠
More than a century ago, Niu Yilin's ancestors developed hongquan, or Hong boxing, a renowned martial art form, mainly using their own styles.⁠
Niu Hehou, 77, a major inheritor of Niu-style boxing, said, "It was developed late in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), when local people thought they needed to protect themselves from gangsters."⁠
