  In 1994, Zou Zhaolong played the role of Chang Wei in the film. At that time, in the play, a woman who had a close relationship with Zou Zhaolong and was pregnant with her flesh and blood was imprisoned for him. Zou Zhaolong hid the information that he knew martial arts to avoid suspicion and rebelled that he was born with divine power. This is the first film that the audience came into contact with Zou Zhaolong. There are few scenes in the film where he can display his fists and fists. In those days, he actually had decades of martial arts skills. What is even more incredible is that at that time, he was already the imperial body double of Andy Lau, Tony Leung Chiu Wai and even Maggie Cheung, Carina Lau and Rosamund Kwan. Then, Zou Zhaolong fought with many kung fu masters such as Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Donnie Yen in Chinese film circles.

  Now, Zou Zhaolong brings us the hottest martial arts scenes and the most shocking variation effect, as well as the gentle feelings of "the most extreme villain in history". His superb acting skills impressed the audience and the media, and the unknown bitterness also made the interview media present cry several times because of Zou Zhaolong’s sadness.

Jet Li’s best rival gave Jackie Chan a sense of oppression.

  In 2008, Zou Zhaolong returned from Hollywood and played against Jackie Chan and Jet Li in forbidden kingdom. Jet Li said that it was very comfortable to play opposite Zou Zhaolong, and diamond cut diamond played very enjoyable. Zou Zhaolong also said with a smile that he is Jet Li’s most tacit "enemy". "Why am I so far away from Hollywood that the directors and producers invited me to shoot this play, because I can give them (Jackie Chan and Jet Li) pressure. Give them a sense of oppression, and the audience will feel that it is finished. How can these two forbidden kingdom destroy such a person? "

  Only in this way can we see the power of real kung fu movies. No matter the momentum or skill, there will be a fire of confrontation and the play will be really good-looking. No matter how good forbidden kingdom is, it can’t be wonderful without a good opponent, while Zou Zhaolong’s vicious and fierce fists fill the gap in the challenge in time and become the "big green leaf" of the supreme level in the villain role.

Suffering from the flesh and blood to set off the positive role

  Zou Zhaolong plays the villain in the play, which is inseparable from his professionalism and professional attitude. In order to set off the strength of the positive role, he often gets beaten in the play. Most of the actors are not from martial arts, and their punches are definitely not so accurate. Zou Zhaolong always cooperates generously. It is inevitable to get hurt in slapping. "If I am injured, I will lie there. I am most afraid of so many people coming around. I will say not to come around and let me have air to suck." In an interview, Zou Zhaolong had obvious scars on his arms and knees. He said it was because he was filming a new play, but at present he could not reveal too much about the plot, and he hoped that his injury would not attract too much attention. "It’s far from the heart at all, it doesn’t matter." Every time he was accidentally injured in filming, Zou Zhaolong always downplayed it.

I shed tears for the first time in my life without going to an orphanage

  There are thirteen brothers and sisters in Zou Zhaolong. The father’s untimely death has put all the family burdens on his mother. Such great pressure made my mother almost collapse. Zou Zhaolong was once persuaded by her mother to go to an orphanage, because her family really didn’t have the money to support so many children. He cried and hugged his mother and said, "I’m not an orphan. Why should I go to an orphanage?"

  "In order to let us go to school, we sent our brothers to an orphanage. I want to stay with my mother, and I don’t want to add to her burden, so I will be an apprentice. " For Zou Zhaolong Jr., the only way out is to stand on his own feet and stop worrying about his mother. At the age of five, he began to learn sculpture from his master. He looked at his mother’s distant back and shed the first tear since he became sensible.

  "At that time, I just wanted to learn a skill and grow up to survive. At that time, I didn’t have enough to eat. There was a bakery next door. I told my mother to make bread so that I could fill my stomach. When I was nine and a half years old, I went to work in a bakery. " At the age of twelve, Zou Zhaolong had already started practicing nunchakus by the oven. Later, he worked as a temporary body double and martial artist in Taiwan Province until he was eighteen. "Sometimes three groups of plays want me, so I buy a folding bed and sleep in the costume room on the set." Zou Zhaolong said that although he didn’t have the same childhood as others, in his memory, that time was the happiest and most beautiful.

Don’t rely on your family, stay with your family.

  Zou Zhaolong has twin sons and a two-and-a-half-year-old daughter. But his children still don’t know that their father is a martial arts actor with great fist and fist skills, who is full of weight in the Chinese film industry. Zou Zhaolong tried to play the role of Huo Yuanjia’s father when he filmed Huo Yuanjia. I don’t know if the image of this father made him feel the awe of appreciate each other. Huo Yuanjia’s father, Huo Endi, never lets his son learn boxing, and even doesn’t allow him to teach his students boxing. He hoped that his son would study hard, practice calligraphy well and be a knowledgeable and useful person to society. Because he knew that every time he went to gallants, he had to live and die. He was not afraid of death, but he didn’t want his children to go the same way as him. He wanted them to live in peace all their lives. Is that what Zou Zhaolong thinks?

  Zou Zhaolong said frankly, "Sometimes the place where I shoot is near where my family lives, but I won’t go home or tell them where I am, because I want them to get used to life without me. I don’t know when I will be gone … …” Although he can’t be with his family all the time, he will make them feel that no matter where they are, there is always a pair of eyes watching them, which will give them a kind of sureness to be with them all the time. Whenever he is with his family, Zou Zhaolong always deliberately alienates himself from his children, so that the children can learn to get used to the days without their father, because he never knows which action movie will cause him an accident. So he said that if tomorrow is the end of the world, he wants to be with his family, and no matter where his family is, he will get to them as soon as possible. Zou Zhaolong couldn’t restrain his feelings for a moment, bowed his head and said nothing, and tears slowly slid down his eyes.
