In 2017, the Chinese action movie Wolf Warrior 2 won a big success. It has received much attention and positive reviews after it was shown in China and oversea markets including Australia and the US. The film had earned about 5.68 billion yuan in China.
The major actor Wu Jing is also the director of the film, who played the role of Leng Feng, a soldier serving for China's Special Forces.
At the age of six, Wu Jing was sent to the Beijing Sports Institute at Shichahai. Both his father and grandfather were also martial artists. Like Jet Li before him, he competed as a member of the Beijing Wushu Team. Two years later, in 1982 he won the National Wushu Championship. He won first place in several national level Wushu competitions at the junior level and continued to compete as an adult.
Why has Wolf Warrior 2 gained so much popularity? Besides great scenes and wonderful performances, many Chinese were inspired by the patriotism of the Chinese soldier Leng Feng during the mission(任务). He couldn't finish the mission successfully without the love for our country.
At the end of the film, Leng Feng led some people to go back to China and then a short message was showed: Citizens of the People's Republic of China. When you encounter danger in a foreign land, do not give up! Please remember, at your back stands a strong motherland.
