 He talks about the match in his autobiography.He was disappointed to be replaced in the middle of the match.

 The filming of the movie was slow at first because of the bad weather, and proceeded at a high speed in June as the weather improved. Perhaps because of this, Jackie continued to sleep poorly.

 On March 26, a soccer match was held between popular Hong Kong actors and popular Japanese comedians.

​ The person beside Jackie, named Takeshi Kitano, has been one of Japan's most popular comedians ever since. He is also a world-famous film director.

 There are eight pages with letters from his fans.

 These pages also have lots of photos of Jackie playing soccer games  and appearing on music shows in Japan.

​ 

There are three pages of interviews with him.But one of those pages is just a photo.

Q You look busy as usual, but you look fine.

A We plan to release this movie in Japan this summer.I have a tight schedule because I don't have time.But I and other performers and staff are in good shape.

Q  You are the director of this movie.

A It's been two years since I last directed "Project A 2".That's why I think I have to work hard, and the voice of the instructions is more powerful.

(Really, Jackie on the shoot was energetic.The advice to the actors was detailed, and the instructions to the staff were passionate.)

Q Have you had any difficulties when shooting?

A It's not easy in any small scene.There was a scene where me and Mei were attacked by a villain, but it took two hours even though it was just one cut.

Q What was the scene like?

​A It was when she tried to pour a bucket of water into the villain to help me.She was supposed to water me by mistake, but it didn't water me well.After  failed, the staff dried my clothes hard with the lights and iron. It was shooting during the night, so I was cold and shivering.

     The rest is omitted.

 There is also a page-by-page interview with the actors and producers who appear in this movie.

 She said about Jackie:I'm very happy to be with him.He tells us funny stories and makes us laugh and relax.

 But he is very tough during the shoot.

 He never compromises and shoots as many times as he wants until he gets what he wants.I have great respect for him as a filmmaker.And I also want to emulate that he is very kind to his fans.

 The producer of this movie is the directer of the"Shaolin Wooden Men" and " Snake & Crane Arts Of Shaolin"

 In his autobiography, Jackie appreciates him very much.

​ He says about Jackie:He has grown very much compared to that Shaolin Wooden Men. At that time he was still in the hands of Director Low Way.But now, each of his acting is convincing.

​ He plays and martial arts while considering the harmony and overall balance with other actors.

I wish you good health.
