I don't know how a human can be THAT busy. I've been working nonstop! I took a direct flight to America and as soon as I arrived in California, I went straight to work, work, work! I had a rehearsal with Yao Ming in Pasadena, then at noon I went back to another meeting for the rehearsal. The next morning, I woke up at 9 a.m. to meet with my friends. By the time I went back to the hotel at 1 p.m., I had two hours to rest before we drove to Pasadena for the Rose Bowl Parade. All the roads were all blocked. There were more than 100 million people watching! The Rose Bowl Parade is an American tradition that dates back to 1890. I was so honored to be there to represent China as the ambassador of the upcoming Shanghai Expo.

The next morning, I had a meeting with Will Smith and dubbed for The Karate Kid. In China, the film will be called Kung Fu Kid. DreamWorks has registered Kung Fu Panda, so they are allowed to use "kung fu" in front of all of their movies! So we will use the original title, The Karate Kid. Afterwards, I had a meeting with many different directors. I also appeared on the Ellen show and the Conan O'brien show to talk about my new movie, The Spy Next Door.

On the 14th, I took a direct flight back to Hong Kong. As soon as I landed at 7 a.m., I went to a costume fitting for a movie. At 10 a.m., I went to the studio to dub Shinjuku Incident in English for two days. Professionals from America flew in to work on the dubbing and even though they thought we needed a 10 hour day for two days, I finished the whole thing in less than 10 hours! Speaking English was so difficult for me because my mother language is Cantonese! I also had endless meetings every single day.
I have a new assistant; her name is Victoria. The first time I met her, she was 12 years old. Now she is 22. I was looking for an assistant who could speak Cantonese, Mandarin and good English. I called my dialogue coach Diana and asked her to help me find somebody. She finally called back and said, "What about my sister?" Then I realized, yes! That is a good choice. The only thing is, she can't read Chinese! But that's okay because I can read Chinese so I can help her. The only thing I need help with is all the English speaking! For the next few years, I will be working on films in China and I will be speaking Chinese all the time. I'm scared that when I go back to the States, I will forget all of my English. I need somebody by my side to read the American news to me. I need to know what's happening in Hollywood, who's doing what, especially all the film people. I want to know what James Cameron's and Steven Spielberg's next films are so I can prepare! I don't want to hear about gossip though, only positive news.
I am always doing different things in China, especially during Chinese New Year. There are so many things going on. There are so many annual festivals! Each department, from the police to the street patrols have their own annual Chinese New Year Ball. I have to be there to sing "Country." Actually the song is so beautiful. I produced the song with all of my people. The lyrics are very simple
"Home is my home, country is my country, I love my home, I love my country."
I hope everyone can sing that song. After I produced it, it was very popular. Do you know how many people downloaded the song since October 1, 2009? Over 500 million! Unbelievable! I even know the sign language to the song. Not only will I be singing at these Chinese New Year Festivals, I will be doing the sign language as well. I think it is popular because the lyrics are meaningful and the melody is catchy. We even have many versions of the song, including singles, duets and even a children's version! I think this kind of song is suitable for any country because every human being, regardless of religion race can relate. I believe that no matter who you are, you should love your country, your home and your Earth.
Since I've been back in China, all I can say is that I've been busy, busy, busy! Yesterday morning, I flew to Guangzhou on a private jet. I did a press conference to promote Little Big Soldier for the distributors and reporters, and I had to go to a park to see all the fans. The distributors all said that they had full confidence in the success of the movie. They say great things, but I think they're just being polite. In the end, I trust the audience. I trust the internet and all of my fans. Please write to me and tell me if you like it or not!

Twitter. I don't know what that is, but my new assistant Victoria told me that I have to Twitter. Everybody has a Twitter account, including Brett Ratner, Ellen DeGeneres and Taraji Henson. If all of my friends have it, then it must be a good thing. Victoria is teaching me how to use it. I cannot believe how fast it is! If you have a Twitter account, you can follow me at www.twitter.com/


In the last couple of days, I've been watching the news about Haiti, especially during my training. We just experienced the Sichuan earthquake, now we have the Haiti earthquake. I know it is very painful for a lot of people. I've been thinking of a way to help them. Right now, I feel like nobody can help except for the army and government. When natural disasters happen, I wish I could be Superman. Thank you to all the people in the world who are helping Haiti. One thing I really dislike is when people are not helping each other, but stealing from each other instead. These people should be punished! Right now, the country should be helping each other. Other countries and armies are coming in to help you, you should help yourselves! We recovered in China very quickly because we helped each other.
During Chinese New Year every year, the Chinese press always ask me what I wish for. I always say that I wish for a healthy and peaceful world. There are so many things happening everyday. There are so many natural disasters every year, like tornados, tsunamis and earthquakes. Also, remember that many human beings create their own disaster. Humans fight each other, kill each other. Why can't we work together instead of hating each other? You can choose a friend, but you cannot choose a neighbor. Your neighboring country has been there for thousands of years. Why is there so much hate at the border? Why is 3 or 4 inches of land so important for people to be murdered? The whole world should help each other. When I am not that busy, I am going to figure out how to really help Haiti. Right now, we should let the army help Haiti. My thoughts are with all the people in Haiti and all the armies who are helping them too.
January 26 (星期二)
在美国忙得不可开交
真是不明白,一个人怎可能这么忙,我最近是不停地做工作! 我乘坐飞机直接飞去美国,到达加州之后,就立即开始做我一连串的工作! 首先到帕萨迪纳与姚明一起彩排,然后下午回来,为彩排活动开会。第二天早上九点起床后,就跟一班朋友会面。当我回到酒店的时候,已经是下午一点钟。我在酒店休息了两个小时,然后开车前往帕萨迪纳,参加玫瑰花车大游行活动。所有路线都被封了,超过一亿人民观看着这个活动! 这个玫瑰花车大游行是美国庆祝新年的标志性活动,始于1890年,已有100多年的历史。我感到非常荣幸,能够以中国2010年上海世博会大使的身份,代表中国参加活动。
第二天一早,我跟威尔·史密斯开会,并且为《功夫小子》配音。 在中国地区里,这部电影会叫做《功夫小子》。因为梦工厂已经注册了《功夫熊猫》这个名字,所以在梦工厂所有的电影名前,他们有权使用“功夫”这两个字。因此,我们的电影会用原本的戏名The Karate Kid。之后,我跟很多不同的导演开会。然后,我上了The Ellen Show和The Conan O'brien Show这两个电视节目,跟他们讲解一下我的新电影,《邻家特务》。
1月14日,我踏飞机直接回去香港。早上七点到港之后,就马上赶去为新戏试服装和造型。十点钟,试完服装之后就赶去录音室为《新宿事件》配音。我们预了两天时间完成英语配音。来自美国的专家也到来帮助我们的配音工作。虽然他们也认为这次录音工作需要两天的时间,每天十小时,但是我一天之内不足十小就录完了! 其实对我来说,讲英语真是很难,因为我的母语是广东话! 除此之外,我每天也开了无数的会议。
我的新助手
我新请了一位助手,她的名字叫Victoria。我第一次认识她的时候,她只得十二岁。现在,她已经二十二岁了。其实,我当时想找一位懂得讲粤语,国语和一口流利英语的助手。因此,我就打电话给我对白老师Diana,请她帮我找适合人选。之后,她终于打电话给我,还跟我说“我妹妹如何?”当时立刻茅塞顿开,对啊! 她的确是个好人选。只是,她不懂得看中文字! 但是这都没问题,因为我识看中文字所以我可以教她。我唯一需要帮助的是讲英语! 接下来的几年里,我的影视事业会集中在中国,而大部分的时间也会用中文沟通。我真害怕,日后回到美国的时候,自己的英语会退步或完全忘记了。所以,我身边需要一个人,可以跟我说说美国的新闻和最新消息。我要知道好莱坞的近况,谁在做什么,尤其关于娱乐圈的人物。我想知道占士·金马伦和斯蒂芬·斯皮尔伯格的下一部电影是什么,好样我做好准备! 可是,我不想听到什么八卦新闻,只想听到一些正面报导。
在中国工作的时候,我经常做很多不同的事情,尤其是农历新年这段期间,真是有很多喜庆节目和活动! 从警方人员到警察巡视队,每一个部门都有自己的农历新年晚宴。他们邀请我出席,并演唱《国家》。其实这首歌非常动听。我跟自己班底的朋友们一起制作这首歌。歌词也很简单:
“国是我的国 家是我的家 我爱我的国 我爱我的家”
我希望大家都会识得唱这首歌。当这首歌制作完毕之后,观众反应非常热烈。大家知不知道,从2009年十月一日至今,有多少人下载了这首歌? 超过五亿次了! 真是难以相信! 而且,我也懂得用手语唱这首歌。所以,在农历新年的庆节活动里,我不但会演唱歌曲,我也会边唱边做手语。我觉得这首歌很受欢迎因为歌词很有意思,而歌曲旋律也很好听。其实,这首歌也有很多版本,包括单独唱版,合唱版,儿童版都有! 我认为任何国家都适合唱这首歌,因为不论种族或宗教信念,人人都能够感同身受。我相信,无论你是谁,大家都应该爱护自己的国,爱护自己的家,还有爱护我们的地球。
在中国忙碌
自从回到中国工作之后,我只能说,我一直忙个不停! 昨天早上,乘坐私人飞机前往广州,跟发行商和记者朋友们出席发布会,为新戏《大兵小将》做宣传。之后,我去了一个公园,与影迷会面。所有发行商也跟我说,他们对这部电影非常有信心,觉得会很成功。虽然他们真懂得说好话,但是我觉得他们只是客气而已。最终,我是相信你们观众。我相信网上和影迷的反应。请留言给我,说我听你们喜不喜欢!
发布会结束后,我们马不停蹄赶去机场,踏机回去北京。正如克里斯·塔克所言,“现在我们有了G4,这个世界就缩细了!”一日之内,想去那里就可以到那里。到达北京已经是晚上十一点,落机后就赶去开会,开到凌晨一点多。今天早上十点起床,然后开始健身。我真是很忙! 基本上,每天就是做这些。很多人都认为,我拍戏时很忙碌,但其实我不拍戏时,更加忙碌! 我宁愿天天拍戏吧! 下一部戏几时开拍?!?!
Twitter (推特)。其实,我不知道这是什么东西,但是我新助手Victoria跟我说,Twitter一定要用。听她说,人人都有个Twitter用户,包括Brett Ratner,Ellen DeGeneres和Taraji Henson等等。我在想,如果所有的朋友都用它,它一定是个好东西。现在Victoria教我怎样用。真是难以相信,这个东西这么快! 如果你们有Twitter用户,不妨在这里跟我吧www.twitter.com/EyeOfJackieChan。我会经常Twitter给大家了。坦白说,只要是好事和有教育意义,那就没问题。看看结果会怎样吧。
最近这几天,尤其当我健身的时候,在电视看到很多关于海地的新闻报导。我们刚刚经历过四川大地震,现在又来个海地大地震。我知道很多灾人在受苦,而我也正在想办法去帮助他们。当务之急,我觉得除了当地政府和军队的支援之外,其他人也帮不了什么忙。其实,当这些天灾发生的时候,我真是希望可以化身为超人,去帮他们。谢谢所有世界各地的朋友,支援帮助海地灾区。但是,有一件事我真的最不喜欢看到,虽然大家不是互相帮助,但是看到大家互相盗窃。这些人应受惩罚! 现在,国家应该帮助大家。其他国家也派支援帮助你,你们应该也帮助自己! 我们中国可以这么快恢复,都是因为我们同心合力,互相帮助。
每年度过农历新年的时候,记者朋友都会问我,今年愿望是什么,而我年年都会回答,希望自己身体健康,世界和平。每天发生的事情已经够多,每年还有这么多天灾,如龙卷风,海啸,地震等等灾难。还有,大家不要忘记,人也制造很多人为灾害。人类还在互相斗争,互相残杀。为什么大家不可以同心协力,不再憎恨对方呢? 朋友可以拣,但是邻居是不可以选择。围住的邻国已经存在数千年了,为什么边界地区有这么多仇恨? 三,四寸土地真是这么重要吗? 可以因此而杀人? 我们这个世界应该做的是互相帮助,和平共处。一有空的时候,我会想办法去帮助海地。但现在,我们要样当地的军队援助海地。海地人民和前线军队人员,我的心永远想著你们。
