This is an extract from a book (sān lián wén cóng:xiù cháng hòu tái) by Weng Jing about Jackie and charity:
Jackie Chan, the general chatter like a preacher preaching to his philanthropic theory, he does not deny some people will think that he was putting on a show.
, Called "Angel Wings" campaign is to improve student life in poor areas of Yunnan. There is a school can get 21 per person per month potatoes, there is no alternative other vegetables, the first grade students to cook their own food; the other students in the region only cabbage soup goes well with rice, no oil salt. Jackie Chan's original plan with the Huayi Brothers from the new movie "Baby Project" in box-office come up with one million yuan as a donation, but before the event to have found provides a 2 million yuan China Merchants Bank sponsorship. Jackie Chan in the interview have always stressed the need not ask him about his new film, originally scheduled to attend the other two main characters are Louis Koo and high round for fear of overwhelming and did not come.
Jackie Chan, the general chatter like a preacher preaching to his philanthropic theory, he does not deny some people will think that he was putting on a show. After all-star charity has long been regarded as a means of propaganda, in fact, some stars did. One of the Northwest region last year, looking for water-related activities, invited a large number of stars, many of whom have collected appearance fees. In fact, free-Star appearance would have been willing to due diligence, the Hong Kong every year organization "Star Yao Bao-liang," fund-raising, appearances will be followed by two young singers back in hand basket, went before the audience, who are not embarrassed pays for.
Reporter: When did you start to do charity? Jackie Chan Charity Cup is said that you do the Tour because of Moxi shoot, when to stay at home is too boring?
Jackie Chan: In the past the government wanted me to do, saying that a child wants to see you. At that time I was idol when I say 30 years ago, I said: "No, I have nothing to see it?" Filming to make money the most important. But I forgot hours the Red Cross gave me a big raise. Called many times, and finally I went once, that the moved. They arranged that those children had taken me hold me, say one for each host I am very ashamed, he said: "Jackie Chan's uncle is very happy to see you!" I am not delighted? "Jackie Chan's uncle in order to see that you bought a lot of gifts." That's a gift someone else to buy 呀! Have been cheated, I have been so ashamed. "If you want do not want to know what Jackie Chan's uncle bought a gift to you?" "If you want!" Ah! I do not know what is inside. I opened a sub to them, they thank my queue. At that time, I put to utter shame, the original whole event I have a lie, a sham. To the back repeatedly said, "Jackie Chan's uncle next year you will see us?" I said: "Yes, the whole event is false, this can not be false." That year I went back there, which I really over. Ball-like snowballing, and I said fans should not donate anything to me, like donate money, and then set up a fund developed to Hawaii, the United States, Japan, Jackie Chan fund. I would also like to honor the Americans give money only to local Chinese, and I hope that the fund is no race, no boundaries, regardless of color, it's that slowly grew and grew.
Reporter: In addition to donations what else way?
Jackie Chan: a hospital. I have two hospitals in Canada, San Francisco has a center for the elderly, many Chinese immigrants to go over there, sons and daughters of big run away, the elderly nobody. Australia to my mom named Science Center, a gym, too much.
Reporter: Yang Lan said, the charity can not be the basis of personal passion, must be the introduction of commercial mechanisms, how do you think?
Jackie Chan: Be sure to have. How much of my personal power? Not much only use my friends, relations, and now buy my films, distribution of my films, first promised to do charity. My agent brands of clothes, how much money each year to bring it to do charity, because you sell clothes, I know how much you can lie to me, but you do not deceive yourself. I moved so many people had never lied to me. Last year, my "Dragon trip" project, built more than a dozen schools, returned to Hong Kong have dinner, I took a picture to the big business bosses friends, seeing, see their tears on the spot has donated more than 200 million HK dollars .
Reporter: What to do charitable activities, difficulties in the public do not know? Such as fund-raising is difficult?
Jackie Chan: Fund-raising is definitely more difficult. People to spend money on is always difficult, and I come and go and raising money are always a few great friends, I can not always ask them to donate, but the endless charity work, how can the community do it? I have to do a Shanghai 8 million people in concert, Lohan easy to please please Guanyin, Guanyin please Lohan hard to find, out of 18 individuals each one is 18. Walking in the street, people tell you that you donate 100 to the Jackie Chan funds, people would certainly say: if it is true? Jackie Chan also need to donate money Mody? If the concert, 100 tickets, some people will buy a 10. Become a habit for so many years past, they do not believe me, now I say what they believed. Because I went to mountains, money and efforts, they see it.
Reporter: Why do not they believe you?
Jackie Chan: They do not believe that a very young person to do such a thing might be doing propaganda bar. I have no past performance to you see, your heart first thought was he was doing publicity. Today, so you do not think that there is no such "Baby," I will do in next month I went to Harbin, Nanjing, charity concerts, mid-to Shaanxi for them to build a primary school, the Jackie Chan Charitable works have I positive industry. There is also a desire, I have too many fans around the world last month, has received contributions from 19 countries, 15 languages, more than 30 kinds of coins, I think it's to build a peace park, whether in Yunnan, or the big cities, which Apart from loving the world, the greatest need is peace.
Reporter: Now, some people will use other people's love for profit, and even the beggars have a professional, you have not received any cheat?
Jackie Chan: too much. I give people to take advantage to do charity work, too, keep track of. A kind of rice will raise a hundred people, such persons will not be easy, I hope he will change the future. Everyone has good-hearted, a momentary greed would go a crooked path in hopes that through different channels to correct them.
Reporter: But relying on a person's strength can affect the world people?
Jackie Chan: I think so, not influence it does not matter, I have influenced my own, I am better, I am taking each step forward and every word I will be very loud speakers all over the world including Hong Kong Chief Executive, Chief Executive of Macao call me soon as Jackie Chan's older brother, I can stand the name. This is what I go now, everyone believed that I speak, I am happy, I fall asleep to sleep before you have done bad things, all I can not sleep. I photographed bad movies, cheating the audience, every film released, I saw the movie's name is very afraid of. I have to learn from our mistakes corrected, I hope that through this visit, the impact of those deceptive people.
Reporter: I had an eye for girls funded activities to see you cry like this kind of thing much?
Jackie Chan: That was a small cry, I cry Xilihuala last year in Yanbian, too many things that moved me. Look at your little girl eyes and dare not, and my mother said, for fear her mother worried that such a small girl would have thought that Hong Kong will be with her mother to a child what kind of phone. I went to Yanbian, so many deaf children use sign language to sing "A Hero Never Dies" and I watched them that there are no tears from tears, I have been crying, this is moving.
Reporter: You will use this moment in the movie good?
Jackie Chan: casually will be used in the movie.
Reporter: a kind of argument is that the foreign charity can be tax-free, but China's contributions to tax-free has not really implemented, how do you see?
Jackie Chan: Taiwan does not have duty-free Mody? I am a person who does not count, I have never thought about tax-free, how to avoid law I do not know.
Reporter: I heard you are a very saving people.
Jackie Chan: What's been saving, I am saving and I like to clean the degree can be annoying. Shampoo signs of shape I have to straighten out, I would like to make people around me so that they are afraid of me. If my brothers line up five individuals to urinate can not urinate finished according to each one, to five people finished with the press. 5 times on a dozen gallons of water, they do not imagine that it was water to do.
Reporter: Do you have the way to teach his son do?
Jackie Chan: I have asked Fang Zuming (Jaycee Chan) urine using a grid paper, stool with two grid paper. He came back from the United States to buy a new computer, I object, he was not happy. South Asia floods, Performing Arts's union sent him to, he came back to donate 30 million and says that he bought, I asked why, he said: "I find that they need clean water is more important than I need a computer." Big city child think that there is an open tap water, reaching there phones, it is not, we are suffering them there. We would like to eat a vegetable tofu to master playing, sleeping on the floor Exalted urine, cat urine all, is what I came for. A new generation of young people is not without rules, but for me, they do not have rules. Their culture is so, for me, is that no culture, we respect your teacher, they are all "Yeah!" (So Jay-style gestures)
Reporter: I heard that you are in Hong Kong Environmental Protection Bureau deputy director, with the intention to do in the future in politics?
Jackie Chan: Yes, the vice president of the National Environmental Protection Association, I am old and I make a mistake. Not come before politics, now must pick up and can not delegate what I do. I will do the environment that I will crack down on triad.
Reporter: Do you want to be the chief executive do?
Jackie Chan: No, I do not, I am not the kind of talent. I want to manage traffic, garbage, triad.
Reporter: That is a Chief Superintendent of the.
Jackie Chan: Yes, the police do more film, my film is that I want to do. Police, FBI, fire can be.

成龙像个传道士一般喋喋不休宣讲他的慈善理论,他也不讳言会有人认为他在作秀。
这个名为“天使之翼”的活动是为改善云南贫困地区学生生活。有一个学校每人每月可以领21个土豆,除此之外没有别的菜,小学一年级的学生要自己做饭;另一个地区的学生只有白菜汤下饭,没有油盐。成龙原计划与华谊兄弟从新片《宝贝计划》的票房中拿出100万元作为捐款,但在活动前又找到招行提供了200万元赞助。成龙在采访之间一直强调不要问他的新片,原定出席的另外两个主角古天乐和高圆圆也因怕喧宾夺主没有来。
成龙像个传道士一般喋喋不休宣讲他的慈善理论,他也不讳言会有人认为他在作秀。毕竟明星做慈善一向被视为宣传手段之一,事实上有一部分明星的确如此。去年有个为西北地区找水的活动,请来了大批明星,其中很多人都收了出场费。其实明星肯免费出镜就已经尽职,香港每年都会组织“星光耀保良”的筹款,出场歌手后面会跟着两个少年,手执提篮,走到观众前,谁也不好意思不掏钱。
记者:你从什么时候开始做慈善?据说你做成龙杯慈善车赛是因为没戏拍的时候,待在家里太闷?
成龙:以前是政府要我去做,说小孩子想见你。那时候我是偶像派,我讲是30年前,我说:“不去了,我有什么好见的?”拍戏赚钱最重要。但我忘记了小时是红十字会给我养大的。叫了很多次,终于我去了一次,那次就感动了。他们安排好的,那些小孩子抓我抱我,主持人每讲一句我都很惭愧,他说:“成龙叔叔见到你们很开心!”我没有开心呀?“成龙叔叔为了见你们买了很多礼物。”那礼物是别人买的呀!一直在骗,我一直很惭愧。“想不想知道成龙叔叔买了什么礼物给你们?” “想!”啊!我都不知道那里面是什么。我打开一个个分给他们,他们排队谢谢我。那时候我无地自容,原来整个活动我都在骗人,是假的。到后面再讲,“成龙叔叔明年你会来看我们么?”我说:“会,整个活动是假的,这个不能假”。那年我又去了那里,这是我真正地过来。滚球似的越滚越大,我说影迷不要捐东西给我,捐钱就好了,然后成立一个基金,发展到夏威夷、美国、日本的成龙基金。美国人给钱我还要兑现,只能给当地华人,我希望基金是没有种族、没有界限、不分颜色的,就这么慢慢越做越大。
记者:除了捐款还有什么别的方式吗?
成龙:盖医院。我在加拿大有两个医院,三藩市有个老人中心,很多华人移民到那边去,儿女大了跑掉,老人没人管。澳大利亚有以我妈妈命名的科学中心、体育馆,太多了。
记者:杨澜说过,慈善不能凭个人热情,必须要引入商业机制,你怎么看?
成龙:一定要有。我的个人力量有多大?没多大,只能利用我的朋友、关系,现在要买我的电影、发行我的电影,首先要答应做慈善。我代理牌子的衣服,每年要拿多少钱做慈善,因为你卖出多少衣服我是知道的,你可以骗我,但你千万不要骗你自己。这么多人给我的感动是从来没有骗我。去年我的“龙之行”工程,盖了十几座学校,回到香港有个饭局,我拍了照片给大企业的老板朋友看,看得他们流眼泪,当场捐了200多万元港币。
记者:做慈善活动时有哪些困难是公众所不知道的?比如筹款很难?
成龙:筹款一定比较困难。让人拿钱永远是困难的,我筹钱来来去去都是那几位大朋友,我又不能老是叫他们去捐,但慈善工作做不完,怎么可以利用社会大众去做?我去做一个上海8万人演唱会,罗汉请观音容易请,观音请罗汉难请,18个人每人出1块就是18块。走在街上有人跟你说,请你捐100块给成龙基金,人家肯定会说:真的假的?成龙还需要捐钱么?如果是演唱会,100块的门票,有人就会买10张。这么多年变成习惯性,以前他们不相信我,现在我讲什么他们都信。因为我自己走到山区,出钱出力,他们看到了。
记者:他们为什么不相信你?
成龙:他们不相信一个年纪轻轻的人做这种事情,可能是做宣传吧。我没有以前的业绩给你看,你心里第一个念头是他在做宣传。今天你不会这么觉得,没有这个《宝贝计划》我还是会做,下个月中我到哈尔滨、南京做慈善演唱会,月中到陕西,为他们盖一个小学,成龙慈善工程已经是我的正业。还有一个愿望,我全世界有太多影迷,上月收到的捐款有19个国家、 15种语言、30多种钱币,我想不如盖个和平园,不管在云南,还是大城市,这世界我们除了有爱心之外,最需要的就是和平。
记者:现在社会上有人会利用别人的爱心牟利,就连乞丐也有职业的,你有没有受过骗?
成龙:太多了。我给人家利用做慈善工作,太多,防不胜防。一种米养百种人,这种人不会好过,我希望他以后会改。每个人都有善心,一时的贪念会走了歪路,希望通过不同的渠道把他们纠正过来。
记者:但是靠一个人的力量能影响天下人吗?
成龙:我这么想,影响不了没关系,我影响我自己,我自己好过,我每走一步路每讲一句话我都会很大声,世界各地包括香港特首、澳门特首都叫我一声成龙大哥,我受得起这个名。这就是我走得正,每个人都相信我讲话,很开心,我睡觉睡得着,以前你做过坏事,都睡不着。我拍过烂电影,骗观众,每部电影放出来,我看到影片名字都很害怕。我从错误中纠正过来学好,我希望通过这个访问,影响那些骗人的人。
记者:我曾经在一个资助眼病女童的活动上看到你哭了,类似这种事情很多吗?
成龙:那是小哭,去年在延边我哭得稀里哗啦,太多事情让我感动。你看那小女孩眼睛有毛病,不敢和妈妈说,怕妈妈担心,这么小的女孩会这么想,香港小孩子就会跟妈妈要什么样的手机。我到延边,那么多聋哑小孩用手语唱《真心英雄》,我看着他们从没有眼泪到有眼泪,我一直在哭,这种才是感动。
记者:你会把这种瞬间用在电影里吗?
成龙:不经意地一定会用在电影里。
记者:有种说法是,国外慈善可以免税,但中国的捐助免税一直没有真正实行,你怎么看?
成龙:国内没有免税么?我是个不会算数的人,我从来没想过免税,怎么免法我也不知道。
记者:我听说你是个很节约的人。
成龙:一直节约,我节约和我喜欢干净的程度可以令人讨厌。洗头水招牌歪了我都要摆正,我要令我身边人都这样,他们都怕我。如果我的弟兄们5个人排队小便,不能每人小便完要按一次,要5人完了一起按。5次就十几加仑水,他们不会想象到有人缺水到那样。
记者:你也这样教儿子的吗?
成龙:我要求小房子(房祖名)小便用一格纸,大便用两格纸。他从美国回来要买新电脑,我反对,他不高兴。南亚大水灾,演艺人工会派他去,他回来捐了30万港元,说不买了,我问为什么,他说:“我发觉他们需要干净水比我需要电脑更重要。”大城市的小孩子以为一开水龙头就有水,伸手就有电话,不是的,我们是苦过来的。我们青菜豆腐想多吃一口给师傅打,睡的地板上人尿、猫尿都有,我是这么过来的。新一代年轻人不是没有规矩,只是对我来讲,他们没有规矩。他们文化就是这样,对我来讲就是没有文化,我们是尊师重道,他们都是“耶!”(做周杰伦式的手势)
记者:我听说你是香港环保局的副局长,有今后从政的打算吗?
成龙:是全国环保总会的副会长,我老讲错。以前不会从政,现在要挑,不能委派我做什么。我会做环保,我会打击黑社会。
记者:你想当特首吗?
成龙:不行,我做不了,我不是那种人才。我希望管理交通、垃圾、黑社会。
记者:那就是总警司了。
成龙:对,警察片子做多了,我的片子就是我想做的。警察、FBI、消防局都可以。
