Nowadays, many people are keen on Chinese KongFu. British prince, Charles, began to learn Chinese Qigong; In Australia, there are tens of millions of people are learning Chinese KongFu. They also have some idols of Chinese KongFu. My idol is Jet Li. He is the king of Chinese KongFu. Meanwhile, he is also a very famous action movie star. Hollywood movie star, James Frank said that he wants to ask Jet Li to be his coach and learn Chinese KongFu.
Jet Li's rise to fame
Jet Li began training at the BeiJing Wushu academy at the age of eight. When he was 11, he got his first gold medal in the Chinese championship. In total, he got the Chinese championship for 5 times. He even became a national coach when he was in teens. His first movie, Shaolin Temple(1979) began the 1980s KongFu boom in the mainland of China. He was quite famous since then. It also is the milestone for him to become the world famous superstar.

Jet Li's charity
Jet Li started his "One Foundation" in 2004. It aims to help those people who need help in the world. He will holds many fund-raising charity activities each year and use the funds to help thousands of hundreds of people in the world. The spirit is worth praising. A lot of celebrities and rich people joined this foundation and donated a large sum of money.
Compares to Jet Li, we may know more about Jackie Chan. Whose KongFu is better? Actually I have no idea about that. But we do not have to know. I like Jet, not only because he is a master of Chinese KongFu or an action superstar, but also because he has a kind heart and spirit. He knows to return what he get to the society and help those who need help. If I have a chance to learn Chinese KongFu, I hope that I can learn the spirit of it. To beat another person with Chinese KongFu is not the purpose. I can use my laser pointer I bought from a store: http://www.dinodirect.com/laser-pointers/ to beat anybody, even my idol, Jet Li, but we should be a good person, protecting others and helping others at the same time.
