I'm a huge fan of Jackie Chan.

Firstly, he is dedicated to what he does. Due to the difficulty level of Chan’s stunts, no one else is willing to attempt them, so he does all of them himself. Although he has broken most of his bones while attempting the harder and more dangerous stunts, ultimately, he never lets that stop him from doing them. In fact, he always tries his best to outdo himself and take on more challenging stunts than the ones he has done previously – all in the name of providing exhilarating entertainment.

Secondly, he gives back to society. When Chan isn’t acting, he gives his money and time to the less fortunate – because he remembers his humble beginnings. He believes that he wouldn’t have made it to where he is today if not for the people he met along the way. So doing his part for the less fortunate is his way of showing gratitude to the people who have helped him.

首先，他致力于他所做的事情。由于成龙的特技难度很大，没有人愿意尝试做他替身，所以他都亲力亲为。虽然他在尝试难度更大、更危险的特技时折断了大部分的骨头，但这从来没有阻止他。事实上，他总是尽力超越自己，接受比他以前所做的更具挑战性的特技——所有这些都为了给观众提供更令人兴奋的娱乐。

第二，他回馈社会。当成龙不演戏时，他把自己的钱和时间给了那些不幸的人，因为他记得自己低微的出身。他相信，如果没有他在这一路上遇到的帮助他的人，他就不会到达今天的地位。因此，为不幸的人尽自己的一份力量是他对帮助过他的人表示感谢的方式。
