     Hello, I'm Mario Machado of AsianConnections. I welcome you to this chat with world renowned martial arts artist and film star Jet Li. This is an historic interview. This is the first time that three websites will be simulcasting the interview on both sides of the Pacific Ocean to be heard by millions of people in English and Chinese.

     Joining me on my far left is Michael Kai, who has some very interesting questions asked by fans of Jet Li.

     The topic is historic. Jet Li is a star in the midst of the huge success of his first English speaking starring role in an American motion picture, a Warner Brothers feature, "Romeo Must Die." It's a break-through movie for him here in America. He's a national treasure in his homeland of China, an award-winning Wushu martial arts master who has starred in 25, he corrected me, he says 26, this is his 27th movie. With 25 movies in Asia, primarily playing "good guy" roles. He made a sensational co-starring debut playing the "bad guy" for the first time, because he usually plays "good guys," in "Lethal Weapon 4" with Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, and now this is his first starring English speaking role in an American film.

AC (MARIO): By all measures, his latest movie "Romeo Must Die" is a box office hit. It's premiering in Asia and around the globe as we speak. How are you taking this all in? Exciting?

JET: For me? (smiling)

AC (MARIO): Yes, sir.

JET: (smiling) Of course, you know, the first English movie in the states, the audience gives me a lot of support. They like the movie. They're so happy. But I have a very strong philosophy in my life. (laughter) While everybody's happy, I'm just very calm down, to think about it, the future. If everybody's upset, I'm very excited. (laugh) And, I tell myself, "Do it again, and again."
