The story takes place in 2003, when Duong Mich was only 17 years old and not yet famous. At that time, the actress participated in filming a motorbike advertisement with Jackie Chan, who was already an internationally famous action star.
The advertising team then had difficulty finding a suitable female co-star for Jackie Chan. Many candidates were commented on as lacking confidence or being too stressed when standing next to the famous actor. Meanwhile, Duong Mich, although young, impressed with her dynamism and quick response.
Chinese media recounted that, in their first meeting, Jackie Chan actively chatted happily with Yang Mi to test her reaction. The naturalness and intelligent behavior of the young actress made the male actor excited and decided to choose her to participate in the advertisement.
During the filming process, Duong Mich was commented on for working seriously, not complaining and always coordinating well with the crew. After completing the work, Jackie Chan was said to have been surprised to learn that Duong Mich's salary was only about 600 yuan. The actor then proactively asked the partner to deduct more money from his salary to support his young junior.
After many years of artistic activities, Duong Mich is currently one of the most famous celebrities in China. She is widely known to audiences through films such as Fairy Sword and Dragon Saber 3, Palace 3: Condor Heroes or Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms.
Not only successful in acting, Duong Mich also built her own management company and is considered one of the most influential artists in the Chinese entertainment industry. The image of the actress from a young face receiving meager cat-xe to the current star position has attracted many audiences' attention when the story of yesteryear is recalled.
In many public appearances, Duong Mich still showed respect for Jackie Chan. This made the old story even more discussed on entertainment forums.
