The Chinese place heavy emphasis on academic study and family traditions. What's more, they perhaps find it more difficult to express love and caring for one another as liberally and as freely as people do in the west, especially the old-fashioned types. Don't get me wrong, it's definitely there, but centuries of massive pressure on kids to do well at school and lead a life of hard work and toil has led the general idea of tough love being the norm these days. I think Jackie is just expressing tough love as well. Coupled with the fact that Jaycee didn't do too great academically means that Jackie has more of a reason to push Jaycee. Like Dana said, it also keeps him humble and grounded, which again are strong Chinese traditions. It’s not all that surprising, to be honest.

I think he's rich and famous enough , with his position at this time and day can he just enjoy life and occasionally make a movie that he likes to make, he definitely doesn't have to kowtow to the West or the North . btw : does Sanney remember Wolverine's news of the weeks way back then ? I keep getting confuse :) Regarding Jackie Chan’s comments I wonder is it because of the $$$ and fame (?)
