Jackie receives a minor wound in his right arm while shooting The Myth in Shanghai

 Jackie Chan had only been working on Stanley Tong Kwai Lai's The Myth for a week. On the 7th he began working on an action scene with a martial arts master when he was stabbed by a bayonet in his right arm, causing it to bleed. The frightened staff immediately took a look at the wound. But Jackie treated the injury like it was commonplace, and stopped the bleeding with a wadded paper towel, then affably continued the shoot despite the injury. Yesterday leading lady Kim Hee Sun arrived in Shanghai to film and inquired about Jackie's wounded condition.

It was reported yesterday that Jackie Chan began filming as usual on the set of a castle built in Shanghai. In the middle of the chaotic fight scene with a martial arts master, he was stabbed in the right arm. It bled, and the entire staff was anxious. But Jackie turned and called for everyone to be calm. He smiled and said he clearly knew his situation. After looking over his wound's condition, he said it was not serious and applied some medicine to disinfect the wound. Full of energy, Jackie went back to the cameras and persisted in filming without impeding the shoot. He smiled about the injury saying it was merely child's play.

Wearing a green coat and jeans, Kim Hee Sun initially tried to avoid being recognized upon her arrival in Shanghai yesterday to make preparations for filming. But China reporters spotted her and asked her to give her regards to her fans. She said in Mandarin, "hello" [something about having to get ready]. This is the first time she's making a film outside of South Korea, so the studio is giving her the big star treatment.

Oriental Daily added--
Jaycee Chan admittedly suggested that pressures since coming into the industry, came through his father, he joked and said "Fact is, my name is long, I'm known as JACKIE CHAN'S SON, JAYCEE CHAN, so I am quite envious of Nicholas Tse.  I hope one day when everybody sees my dad, they'll call him JAYCEE CHAN'S FATHER.  Dad said if there really was such a day, he wouldn't be sure if he'd be annoyed or find it funny." As for Jackie injuring his arm, Jaycee said "I didn't know about it, I hope it's a small matter, last time he was filming, there was an explosion, he refused to have stitches, he only used his hand to cover up the bleeding"
