Some time ago, Hong Kong media revealed that Jackie Chan's only son Jaycee Chan had secretly married. The woman is Chinese entertainment singer Amy Yip, and there is an 11-year age difference between the two.

However, none of the parties involved have made any response to this.

This is one of the few pieces of news about Jaycee Chan since he was arrested for drug use 10 years ago. Compared with his previous colorful love life, it is quite low-key.

As the son of a "Kung Fu superstar", he is the envied "Dragon Prince". It goes without saying that he is worth a lot of money and has a profound background.

Moreover, his master is the "music godfather" Li Zongsheng, and his godmother is the "god-given singing craftsman" Ye Qianwen. After his debut, he has been constantly resourced, and his rumored girlfriends are all popular young actresses...

Unfortunately, his overly favorable background did not allow him to keep up the good work and create a brighter future. Instead, he collapsed again and again, becoming a negative example with a long list of bad deeds.

Is this the result of parents’ negligence in education, or the result of abnormal growth?

1. Superstar Parents

Jaycee Chan was born in the United States in 1982. His father is the "Kung Fu superstar" Jackie Chan, and his mother is the retired beauty Lin Fengjiao.

Jackie Chan was 28 years old at the time, but he had been in the industry for 11 years - he started learning martial arts at the age of 7 and entered the film industry as a martial artist at the age of 17.

Three years before Jaycee Chan was born, he had just transformed into an actor and became very popular as soon as he debuted, winning the love of the audience with his naughty and lively performance style.

Although Lin Fengjiao, who is one year older than Jackie Chan, comes from an ordinary family, she has been beautiful since childhood and quickly attracted attention in the industry after entering the industry.

She reached the peak of her acting career with her starring role in "Love Can Ask Heaven", and then won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress twice with "A Boat in the Ocean" and "A Small Town Story".

It can be said that if she had not met Jackie Chan, her achievements in her acting career might not be lower than those of Brigitte Lin.

But in 1981, the two met at a party organized by their mutual friend Qin Xianglin.

At that time, the man had just broken up with his girlfriend Teresa Teng. As a veteran in the love field, Jackie Chan has had many girlfriends since he experienced an unforgettable first love in a drama troupe at the age of 15.

Because of her personality, Teresa Teng couldn't stand Jackie Chan spending all day with his brothers from the martial arts industry, and a rift gradually developed between the two. Later, the woman left after saying "Your brothers are always more important than women."

Lin Fengjiao, who came from a poor family, had the heroic spirit of a gangster, which was unexpectedly in line with Jackie Chan's sentiments.

The man then began to pursue her vigorously: whenever she was filming, he would bring his Cheng family studen... t to visit her on set and escort her when he was free.

Lin Fengjiao quickly surrendered. Even though she knew that the man had countless women around him, she still felt that she would be "the only one."

Since the careers of both the man and the woman were on the rise at the time, they had to keep their relationship underground - and at this time, Lin Fengjiao became pregnant.

After that, she went to the United States alone to give birth, and her acting career was forced to come to a halt.

Jackie Chan was filming "Dragon Tiger Leap" and had no time to accompany her, so Lin Fengjiao spent the entire pregnancy period alone.

It was not until a few days before the birth that the man met his girlfriend at the reminder of his agent, but she did not complain at all and just said lightly:

"I don't want the father's column to be blank when the child is born."

Therefore, Jackie Chan chose to marry her.

The two held a simple wedding in a small cafe with a pastor as witness, without any wedding dresses or relatives or friends.

Not long after, Jaycee Chan was born.

After that, Lin Fengjiao retired completely and stayed in the United States all day to accompany her son's growth. However, for her son, the role of father was always absent.

However, in terms of material life, he lived a very comfortable life. Many years later, his father said in his autobiography that Jaycee Chan never worried about food, drink and tuition fees since he was a child, and everything in his life was well arranged.

Jackie Chan said frankly that he felt "regretful" about this because his son has believed since he was a child that "some people are born to have such a good life."

2. The romantic prince

Despite outside reports, Lin Fengjiao had strict family education.

Rumor has it that Jaycee Chan was expelled from school due to his bad living habits which led to his absence without reason.

But perhaps because he inherited his parents' artistic talent, his dream in his youth was "to become a musician."

Of course, his father would come home occasionally, but he was very rude and strict. It is said that when Jaycee Chan was a child, he would be scolded by Jackie Chan if he wanted to go to the toilet while eating.

There is also a joke circulating among the people that Jackie Chan, on a whim, went to the elementary school gate to pick up his son after school, but he didn't pick him up. Later he found out that his son had already entered junior high school.

Finally, when he was 15 years old, Jaycee Chan returned to Hong Kong, China and had more communication with his father, but his father still disliked him for forgetting to turn off the lights and wasting electricity. He even installed an electric meter in his room and made him pay for the electricity bill himself.

Just when Jaycee Chan was slowly learning to get along with his seemingly self-disciplined father, he became the target of public criticism because of his romantic affair.

In 1999, Hong Kong star Wu Qili announced that the baby in her belly was "Little Dragon Girl", which brought Jackie Chan to the attention of the whole world.

At the height of the controversy, he held a press conference and responded calmly: "I did something wrong, and many men around the world have done something wrong."

Jackie Chan flew to the United States again, wanting to see how his wife, who had never cared about worldly affairs, would choose.

Originally, I thought Lin Fengjiao would ask for a divorce, but she was easily forgiven. She even asked herself:

"Is there anything you need me to do? I can cooperate."

Perhaps from this moment on, Jackie Chan truly realized that the woman who understood him the most was his wife, and as a result, he gradually began to pay attention to his son Jaycee Chan.

After that, his life suddenly changed. At the age of 17, he owned a luxury house and a luxury car given by his father, and his monthly pocket money was as high as six figures.

At that time, Jaycee Chan was also thinking about having a relationship, but was stopped by his father, who believed that he should focus on his career.

So in 2001, with the help of Jackie Chan, 19-year-old Jaycee Chan studied under the "music godfather" Li Zongsheng to prepare for entering the industry.

Two years later, with the help of Jackie Chan and his good friend Albert Yeung, he started making movies.

His first work was as the male lead in "The King's Avatar", and his partner was the Twins who were at the peak of their careers. Donnie Yen, Daniel Wu, Tony Leung Ka Fai and others came to support him.

Even though this work was criticized to pieces later, no one can deny that Jaycee Chan reached the peak of his career as soon as he debuted, and was even nominated for the Best New Actor at the Academy Awards for this drama.

Not only that, because of the film, he also had a scandal with Gillian Chung, and after that, the two of them often made appointments to go out and take photos together.

While he was rumored to be in a relationship with Gillian, Jaycee Chan also had sparks with his musical collaborators Penny Dai and Fish Leong.

In addition, Ella Koon, who has just debuted for two years and is regarded by Sam Hui as a "rising star in the music industry", is also involved in this N-cornered love affair.

Not only did they often send SMS messages to each other, they also went to Jay Chou's concerts together.

But perhaps it was because his mother Lin Fengjiao issued an order at this stage that "no romance with people in the same circle", and the ambiguity between Jaycee Chan and the above-mentioned actresses disappeared.

In the same year, his career continued to flourish and he released his own self-titled album.

In 2005, at the age of 23, Jaycee Chan appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala and sang his own single "Be Strong".

In the same year, he welcomed a girlfriend who was regarded by the outside world as the "most reliable rumored girlfriend": Fiona Sit.

The two met because of their collaboration in the movie "Precocious". The woman also has a good family background. Her uncle was once a senior executive of Huaxing. With his help, she signed a contract with Warner Records when she debuted.

After filming with Jaycee Chan, the man fell deeply in love with her and began to pursue her vigorously. When the film was released, their relationship was exposed by paparazzi.

Sandra Ng also revealed on the show that she had asked Jackie Chan what he thought of Fiona Sit, and he replied "not bad", which also caused a sensation in the outside world.

But later the relationship became involved with the woman's confidant, Khalil Fong, and ended in failure.

3. Bad record

But Jaycee Chan’s “romantic encounter” did not end there.

After that, he was rumored to have affairs with Elva Hsiao, Nicholas Tse's sister Tiffany Xie, Stephy Tang, and Lin Peng, etc. It can be said that he has never had a single period.

During this period, although Jaycee Chan was not handsome and had no special talents, his acting career continued to flourish.

He starred in "True Man" and "Mulan" successively, and even joined Jiang Wen's crew to shoot "The Sun Also Rises"...

Apart from film resources, his singing career has not made much progress, but it has not prevented him from joining the ranks of singers of the Olympic song "Beijing Welcomes You".

A few years later, Jaycee Chan also joined his father Jackie Chan's 100th film "The Revolution of 1911".

But this film became a "joke" - it was rated as Jackie Chan's worst work to date, with a box office of only 120,000 US dollars and a score of 8% on the Rotten Tomatoes website.

However, this does not prevent Jaycee Chan's popularity from rising sharply, because when he is mentioned, there is always a guaranteed identity:

Jackie Chan's son.

Moreover, because of one scandal after another, his brilliant love history has also become one of the factors that have made him a hot topic. People outside even commented on him like this: his girlfriends come and go, but he is always the "Dragon Prince".

At the end of 2010, Jaycee Chan's female companion was replaced by "car model" Li Yingzhi, but she did not stay for long as she was snatched away by Li Yufen, who is known as "Little Vivian Hsu".

After that, his aesthetic taste visibly changed to "falling in love with young models":

He was then rumored to have ambiguous relationships with Lin Yingzhen, Su Zixian and others, and thus became a famous "philatelic male star".

Despite his unremarkable reputation and ability, Jaycee Chan still got the opportunity to work with Han Han in 2013.

The movie "A City" starring him was released in September of the same year. His partner was Xiao Yang, who had just become a popular male star for singing "Little Apple", but the movie was a flop.

It doesn’t matter, because Jaycee Chan later starred in "Unexpected Love Time" with Amber Kuo, still playing the role of the cute and silly otaku that he is familiar with.

This is his tenth year since his debut. Although his career cannot be described as brilliant, he has a strong sense of destiny.

If there had not been the drug abuse incident the following year, I believe Jaycee Chan’s career would have continued to be “brilliant”.

In September 2014, he and his good friend Ko Chen-tung were arrested for gathering in his mansion worth tens of millions of yuan. It was then revealed that he had an eight-year history of drug abuse, shocking the outside world.

At this time, his father Jackie Chan had been an anti-drug ambassador for 5 years.

In this regard, he publicly stated with deep sorrow:

"As a public figure, I am ashamed. As a father, I am heartbroken."

In the same month of the following year, Jaycee Chan was sentenced to six months in prison. Although his father publicly stated that he would not visit him, Jackie Chan still cut his son's hair short after his release, meaning "starting from scratch."

But can everything start from scratch?

In 2016, Jaycee Chan tried to make a comeback by dubbing "Kung Fu Panda 3". In the same year, he also starred in the movie "Railroad Tigers" starring Jackie Chan, but the response was lukewarm and he even encountered a boycott.

With no other options, he had to transform himself into a director and released the movie "Beijing 9 to 5" the following year, which also received mediocre reviews.

Until now, it is rumored that Jaycee Chan secretly married singer Amy Yip, who was born in 1994. The two were previously photographed together by paparazzi but never admitted to their relationship.

Looking at his life, which was born with a silver spoon in his mouth but ended up ruining it, will his life get back on track because of a marriage?

Let's wait and see.
