We visited Cisco a while back (they're good friends of the One Foundation) and got to witness their videoconferencing technology and equipment. Pretty amazing stuff. That's hi-def!

Great team, great actors, great story, hope you guys get to see it soon. It will come out sometime early next year.

Some photos to share with you from the last day. We were shooting at a popular Qingdao spot, the Qingdao Polar Ocean World. You all should definitely go there if you go to Qingdao, great shows, great tanks, great animals. Thanks to them for donating so much of their time and efforts.

100¥ and A Sick Bag: A China Eastern Airlines Story
( 繁 | 简 | 日 )

Wednesday, Sep 23, 2009 12:07PM / Standard Entry / The One Foundation

Due to the constant traveling to all sorts of places on account of work, flying has become an inseparable and necessary part of my life. And because of the density of my schedule, it's the time ...I spend in airplanes that I use to catch up on rest and sleep.

On the evening of September 12 I boarded flight MU5447 flying from Qingdao to Chengdu to appear at the FRD Chengdu Charity Race the next day. As you know, I've been busy here in Qingdao filming my film "Ocean Heaven" (海洋天堂) and I've been so worn out that I slept the entire way.

At 8:40pm, as the plane was on its descent towards Chengdu, one of the air stewards came to where I was sitting with one of those air sick paperbags and handed it to me. As I wasn't completely awake yet, I wasn't sure what he was doing. Then he said, "Mr. Li, I've witnessed the work that the One Foundation has done for the disaster area and community. I myself have also wanted very much to give back, and today I have the luck to be able to bump into you. For lack of a better envelope, I've put 100¥ into this sick bag to give to the One Foundation to continue to help the children in Sichuan."

I was stunned and quickly thanked him. I looked at the envelope, on it it said: "Mr. Li, I hope to be able to give the kids this ¥100 through you, to allow me the opportunity to do my part in helping even if it's just a tiny bit. Sincerely, A Steward on China Eastern."

I hurriedly asked him for his name and address, so that our staff could properly send him a receipt for his donation. He refused. “You don't need to send me a receipt. I believe that you believe in the One Foundation."

So let me take this moment to say, thank you to the Steward on China Eastern and all those out there who believe in the One Foundation. This spirit of giving just a little bit of your heart makes us keep wanting to do what we do.

On the way back to Qingdao, another air steward attempted to donate to the One Foundation again. This time, however, I really couldn't take the money. I said, "Instead of donating through me, you can just do it through all the different kinds of platforms we have set up for giving."

Born in Beijing, Jet Li began studying wushu (the Chinese term for martial arts) at the age of 8. After three years of extensive training, Li won his first national championship for the Beijing Wushu Team. Jet Li was selected by the government to represent the country in over 45 countries by performing martial arts at various state functions. The most famous, in terms of history, was his 1974 performance at the Rose Garden of the White House for President Richard Nixon, after he had just reopened American diplomatic relations with China. For the next five years (1974-1979), he remained the All-Around National Wushu Champion of China.

Shortly after retiring from the sport at the age of 17, his film career kicked off with director Chang Hsin Yen and Shaolin Temple. Today his film credits include Lethal Weapon 4 opposite Mel Gibson, Romeo Must Die, The One, Kiss of the Dragon, Hero and The Warlords. He most recently wrapped photography on The Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.

Li is a Red Cross ambassador and founded the One Foundation, a Chinese-based organization whose goal is to develop China's nascent philanthropy industry. One of the main program areas is to help young people cope with mental well-being and find a balance in life.
