Jackie Chan is an indispensable and key figure in the history of Chinese cinema, and many of the classic films he shot have not been surpassed to this day.

However, a movie cannot be made up of only actors; the director is also an indispensable part.

Therefore, Tang Jili, who had been his partner for more than 20 years, became the benefactor in his life.

The life of this legendary director Tang Jili was also extremely eventful and full of various legends.

Give up study and enter the entertainment industry

Tang Jili was born in Hong Kong, China. Because of his love for martial arts films, he has been training in this area since he was a child.

But in fact, in his plan, martial arts was not his original choice.

Influenced by movies, he wanted to be a doctor since he was a child.

So after graduating from junior high school, he went to Vancouver to study. After several years of basic education, he wanted to study medicine when he graduated from high school.

However, he was told that the medical school in Vancouver did not accept foreign students, so he was admitted to the civil engineering program.

Tang Jili had no interest in civil engineering at all and had no intention of learning about it.

At that time, Tang Jili's sister happened to be an actress in the circle, and his brother-in-law was a director.

He has loved watching movies since he was a child, and his parents were worried about his future.

After learning about his brother-in-law's job, he also became interested in this industry.

So, being very independent-minded, he gave up going to school, returned to Hong Kong and entered the entertainment industry.

Because he had many years of experience in martial arts, he started working as a martial arts stuntman in the crew.

Possessing superb martial arts skills, he has served as a stunt double for many famous stars.

Although he is not the protagonist, he has never lacked film offers.

But everyone wants to be in the spotlight, and he doesn't want to be a stand-in forever.

He has always been a very determined person and is willing to take action for his dreams.

In the third year of being a stand-in, he decided that he didn't want to be someone else's stand-in anymore and wanted to make a career for himself.

Since I can't be the protagonist, I'd better be a director like my brother-in-law.

Becoming a director is not an easy thing. He needs to improve his practical and theoretical knowledge.

In addition to his busy work, he is also learning various theoretical knowledge.

The learning process is hard, but the results are sweet.

Thinking that he already had certain abilities, he started shooting his first movie.

But at that time, she was just an unknown stunt actress, and no one would invest in her movie.

In order to fulfill his dream, he took out all his savings and borrowed several million from his friends to start filming his first movie "Dragon in the Demon Realm".

This was his debut work, and in order to build a good reputation for it, he tried his best to make it a good one, and working more than ten hours a day was already the norm.

Hard work pays off, and the movie was finally released successfully.

His films achieved good box office results due to their novel subject matter and the action sequences he designed himself.

A big boss took a fancy to him and chose him to direct "Police Story 3".

As it turned out, his choice was the right one. During the filming, Tang Jili often came up with various wonderful scenes with the lead actor Jackie Chan.

After the movie was released, it achieved good results and the two of them worked very well together.

Since then, they have been working together for twenty years.

Jackie Chan's new movie "Legend" released this year was directed by Stanley Tong.

After talking about his career, it’s time to dig into the love history of this big shot. Although he is now in his sixties, he was still extremely romantic when he was young.

Rumored with many beauties

When he was filming "New Crime Squad", a Japanese actress in the crew caught his attention.

That actress was the then very popular Norika Fujiwara.

At that time, Tang Jili did not really act like he was pursuing her, but he occasionally showed that he had special feelings for her.

He would often invite her to dinner or send her flowers, and occasionally joke about asking her to marry him.

But since this matter was not made clear, no one knew his true thoughts.

The actress was not affected by this incident and soon fell in love with Aaron Kwok, who was in the same crew, and his pursuit came to nothing.

However, because he loved beauty and power, he soon had an affair with the next beauty.

While filming "Thunder Cops", he met actress Ruby Lin.

In fact, judging from the appearance of her previous boyfriend, we can see that she actually has high requirements for her partner's appearance.

But although Tang Jili is not as handsome as others, he is a very talented director.

Obviously, the great director won the heart of the beauty with his talent.

Lin Xinru, who has experienced many twists and turns in her love life, did not hide this relationship and even publicly stated that the two had met their parents.

The man’s brother also publicly stated that the two might get married soon.

At that time, they could be said to be a perfect match, and the media were very optimistic about this couple.

But a few years passed and there was still no news of their marriage.

In the eighth year of their acquaintance, Ruby Lin publicly announced that she had broken up with him.

The reason was that her boyfriend failed to control himself and actually got together with her best friend Lan Yan.

After this statement was made, Tang Jili's image plummeted and his reputation was no longer as good as before.

At the same time, Lan Yan also jumped out to say that she had actually known the other party for a long time and they had actually been together for a long time.

At that time, Tang Jili was caught up in a cheating scandal and was so frustrated that he had to give up his career. When he saw someone slandering him like this, he of course came out to clarify immediately.

Later, Lan Yan's apology was obviously incredible. Not only did she vaguely say that what she said was true, she also said that she had lived in the mainland for many years and did not know much about the Hong Kong circle. Her words were full of tea art.

This incident caused a lot of uproar in the city at that time, but it eventually faded away with the passage of time.

Later, he had different rumors with many women, but there was no follow-up.

But in 2017, everyone found out that Tang Jili and model Liu Qianyu applied for marriage.

After learning more about her, we found out that Liu Qianyu is a model and has won many awards in competitions.

Moreover, she is 25 years younger than Tang Jili, and they are an old man and young wife.

However, no matter what, Tang Jili, who had experienced many twists and turns in his life, finally found his own happiness.

Conclusion

Now in his sixties, Tang Jili is still active in the film industry, directing films.

Although he is old, his heart is young and he still strictly controls every detail in the film.

Although he started to gain weight after marriage, he would occasionally teach the actors himself.

His life also tells us that as long as we don’t give up and study hard, we will eventually find our own path.
