Wu Jing - The brave martial arts star with crippled legs

Wu Jing is the most famous martial arts star in China today. In showbiz, he is called a "god card" when every investment in a movie is to eat that movie. After the success of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Travel on Earth", martial arts star Wu earned hundreds of millions of dollars.

The indomitable spirit of the Vo Trang Nguyen clan.

Born in 1974, Ngo Kinh belongs to the "Truong Hoang Ky" lineage, one of the "Shang Tam Ky" of the Manchu royal family. As the only son in the family, since childhood, Ngo Kinh suffered from debilitating illness. His parents were worried about their son's health, so they signed him up to join the martial arts team of Beijing Sports School to practice.

As a child, Ngo Kinh did not understand why his father insisted that he learn martial arts. It wasn't until later that he learned: "My grandmother said that my ancestors were the end of the Dorgon tribe, used to be Vo Trang Nguyen many times. My grandfather studied Ngo Thi Tai Chi. My father is a combination of Wu Thi and Tai Chi. Duong Lang Quyen and Cuu Tiet Tien. But he is attached to work in the aviation industry. And my family must have someone to learn martial arts."

At the age of 6, Ngo Kinh studied martial arts at the Beijing Martial Arts Institute in Shisha Hai. At the age of 13, he was selected to the Beijing Wushu team. Here he got acquainted with the hard training days under the guidance of master Ngo Bin, who trained for Ly Lien Kiet, Donnie Yen and Trieu Van Trac.

But because he wanted to achieve high results in the belt transfer exam, Ngo Kinh went over the limit and suffered a spinal injury. During the treatment, doctors discovered that Ngo Kinh's spine had degenerated, leading to the loss of sensation in both legs. Every day, he has to inject pain medication and do very painful physical therapy.

After being discharged from the hospital, although his legs were still not completely healed, Ngo Kinh was still determined to return to the classroom. Master Wu Bin helps his disciple by offering a special training program to restore his legs.

Ngo Kinh has to jump 400m every day, swim 10 laps in a 100m pool, carry a 2kg dumbbell for each leg, not to mention acupuncture. With a thorny personality and determination to overcome the disease, Ngo Kinh returned to the arena. In just 2 years of fighting, he defeated many opponents as well as won many awards in martial arts such as stick, boxing, knife, spear.

In 1992, an injury while competing seriously injured Ngo Kinh's right leg, leading to the risk of disability. This made the young man frustrated and depressed.

Wanting to forget the pain, Ngo Kinh chose to move out and stay away from everyone. In a market to buy food, Ngo Kinh encountered a girl being raped. Even though he was disabled, he still couldn't ignore it. With his martial arts ability for many years of practice, Ngo Kinh was able to chase the bad guys.

It was during that unequal fight that he discovered his feet could feel. Ngo Kinh's dignified action was later praised in the media, helping him regain his faith in fighting the disease.

In 1994, the wound healed, he returned to the sports school. A year later, like Jackie Chan and Donnie Yen, the teenager Ngo Kinh entered the path of a martial arts actor under the guidance of Vien Hoa Binh.

Fateful turn with a film career

In 1995, the Hong Kong film Tai Chi film crew went to Beijing Sports School to find an actor with martial arts background for the film, and Yuan Heping chose Wu Jing. It was very difficult for this director to convince the school to lend Ngo Kinh for 4 months, because at that time he was also preparing to go to the national competition.

The first role in his life made Ngo Kinh inevitably nervous when he cooperated with famous directors - Truong Toan Viem and Vien Hoa Binh, and co-starred with "sex bomb" Chung Le De. Not only could he not portray the character's emotions, but every time he acted out a fight scene, Ngo Kinh fought really hard and was very strong with his co-star because he didn't know how to fight properly. In return, his innocent and pure face convinced the director and the audience.

Tai Chi was successfully launched, Ngo Kinh was invited by Truong Toan Viem to continue in the love affair boy Gong that year. Fortunately, the film was also enthusiastically received by the audience. The initial success with cinema has contributed to leading Ngo Kinh to leave school and enter a professional acting path.

At that time, Ngo Kinh mainly acted in TV series in China, but there was no role that helped him make a breakthrough. Looking at the senior martial arts stars, the young man felt that he was inferior.

In 2003, after filming the movie "Tai Ho", his intuition told him that he needed to go to Hong Kong - the promised land of martial arts stars.

"Hong Kong is very realistic. You are famous, you will have countless invitations. You are anonymous, no one will pay attention to you", Ngo Kinh predicted bad things could happen.

Arriving in Hong Kong, the young man signed to become the first artist who was not a singer of Hoang Bach Cao - who single-handedly led Tran Tue Lam, Trinh Tu Van, Hua Chi An, and Duong Thien Hoa.

Later, Hoang Bach Cao talked about the first day he met Ngo Kinh: "He told me his heartache, it is really hard for mainlanders to enter the Hong Kong film and television world. It takes a lot of sacrifices. communication must be very cautious and modest".

In 2005, Ngo Kinh appeared in two movies, Nhat Tien Song Dieu and Sat Pha Lang. In particular, the role in the movie Sat Pha Lang marked an important step in his film career.

In this film, Ngo Kinh plays a villain for the first time. He plays Jack, a cold, brutal assassin who only obeys his superiors. The film is the gathering of three generations of martial arts actors: Hong Kim Bao, Donnie Yen and Ngo Kinh. The young star has a duel with Donnie Yen near the end of the film, and it is also the most impressive fight of the film.

The success of Sat Pha Lang made Ngo Kinh the attention of many filmmakers. From 2006 to 2008, he had 8 movie works, including a number of hit films: Black Box, Male Identity, Twin Agent, Blood Battle and a Hollywood film, Egyptian Mummy III.

Become the king of Chinese with Chien Lang 2

Chien Lang 2 is the sequel to the movie Chien Lang released by Ngo Kinh in 2015. The film is directed by the actor, scripted and starred.

In the film, he plays Leng Phong, a Chinese soldier who is imprisoned after taking down the boss responsible for destroying his city. After being released from prison, Leng Phong goes to Africa to start a simple life, but he meets a group of ruthless mercenaries and gets caught up in a dangerous war on the black continent.

The 42-year-old actor had a lot of trouble when he started making War Wolf 2. Not only had to be the main male role to reduce production costs, he also struggled to find new faces in other roles because of the actors. The original choices all turned him down when he knew the pay was low.

Ngo Kinh also faced many difficulties in finding distribution partners. Quang Tuyen film company rejected Chien Lang 2 to choose Tam Sinh, Tam Thi, Thirteen.

Up to this point, the film has brought in 3.6 billion yuan (VND 12,600 billion). Ngo Kinh's name is also ranked by the media and experts above Donnie Yen.

Becoming the most mentioned name today, Ngo Kinh is still very calm: "I just want to do three things well: eat well, sleep well, clean on time. My personality has always been like that."

The successor of Ly Lien Kiet

Ngo Kinh and Ly Lien Kiet have many similarities. They grew up together in the western part of Beijing, attended the same elementary and high school, and were excellent members of the Beijing martial arts team. Their master, Ngo Bin, both came to cinema from the work of director Truong Viem Toan, then forged under the hands of Vien Hoa Binh and became famous for the movie Tu Khac.

For Ngo Kinh, Ly Lien Kiet is not only a respected brother but also an idol since childhood. Once, when Ly Lien Kiet returned to visit the team, Ngo Kinh ran to hug his idol's legs tightly and said: "I'll try to fly for you, fly away!". It turned out that the naive teenager that year still thought that his brother could fly like the characters in the movie.

Later, when the press called him "The successor" of Ly Lien Kiet, the Ngo family felt very proud, but not so complacent: "In another 20 years, I won't be able to do what you want. I don't intend to follow Jet Li to Hollywood, but just want to be a Chinese martial arts actor loved by the Chinese audience."

"Not sharing heaven" with Donnie Yen

Donnie Yen and Ngo Kinh had a serious conflict when they appeared together in Sat Pha Lang. An inside source revealed that the actor surnamed Chan gave a real blow in a scene that caused his junior to break a bone.

After this movie, Ngo Kinh vowed never to co-star in a movie with Donnie Yen again. The actor said that the senior met director Hong Kim Bao and asked to cut the scene, even limiting his lines.

Ngo Kinh and Donnie Yen's relationship got worse when the senior continuously made offensive statements. In a press conference, surname Chan criticized: "Ngo Kinh is a good martial arts actor with many beautiful movements. But even though he's good, his speed and power still can't keep up with me. The champion of martial arts. Art is full of roads, but not everyone becomes a kung fu star."

The words of this actor implied that Ngo Kinh had not yet reached the level of a cinematic martial arts superstar.

Why is the male voice clinging to his wife's skirt?

Ngo Kinh's private life was rarely covered by the press for a long time. He and his wife live in a mid-range apartment complex in Beijing. The actor also does not have as much real estate as other stars. Before War Wolf 2 was released, Ngo Kinh made movies for his passion, all expenses in the house were covered by his wife.

"I still remember what she said right after the wedding ceremony. That year, Ta Nam looked at me with a traumatized body and said, 'At best, I'll take care of you later'. Thanks to my wife, I always confidently try." , Ngo Kinh shared on CCTV.

Thus, within only 3 years, Ngo Kinh earned about 300 million USD, a huge number, even compared to the most powerful Hollywood stars. Besides money, he is also considered a talented actor who brings fame to Chinese cinema.

Ngo Kinh's position in Chinese showbiz currently surpasses all the big seniors like Ly Lien Kiet, Jackie Chan and even "old enemy" Donnie Yen.
