In July , The Karate Kid began looking for cast members. The filming dictated that a teenage martial artist be selected. The vice-director of the filming team and Jackie Chan's assistant started the auditions within China's martial arts schools.
At the Beijing Film Academy, approximately ten thousand selected contestants participated in the audition. The selection was extremely strict: English and Mandarin Chinese fluency, wushu skills, physical appearance, acting facial expressions, and even control over eye expressions were tested. After 3 months of auditions, Zhenwei overcame all difficulties and successfully became the actor who would portray Cheng in The Karate Kid.
When filming The Karate Kid , Zhenwei suffered a head injury requiring four stitches. He received it while chasing Jaden Smith who played Dre Parker after being splashed by the dirty water; Zhenwei hit his head on an oil pail.
In addition, he received other minor injuries but fortunately, they were minor and everything healed up, so there was no major delay.
The director stood by his side when he got injured and gave him days off to rest so he could heal his wounds. His brilliant on-screen performance and his fluency in Mandarin Chinese and English proves that he has amazing talents, both on-screen and off screen. Sign In. Edit Zhenwei Wang. Showing all 11 items. Zhenwei wang's family are from Handan, Qiuxian, Hebei, China, but his father brought him to Beijing for a better education. At the age of four and a half, his father sent him to Beijing Shenshahai Amateur Sports School as hell was weak and sickly.
Zhenwei always attends practice classes and was always focused during training lessons. At his young age, hey did not complain of being tired even after hours of training. Han and Dre to cut ties with Li.
In the beginning of the film, when Cheng first appears, he is seen to be quite rude, obnoxious, disrespectful, uncomplimentary, and vituperative, as he abruptly marches in without warning. He is shown to have a short fuse, especially when Dre keeps goading and provoking Cheng by constantly interfering in an argument between Cheng and Mei Ying by constantly retrieving and giving the music sheet, only for a frustrated Ceng to throw it away.
As Cheng grows increasingly agitated, he pushed Dre over. Dre musters up some courage and challenges Cheng to a fight but in the fight at the park, Cheng overpowers Dre and viciously attacks him. Dre loses the fight and gets beaten up and bruised. Throughout the film, Cheng is seen to be arrogant, opprobrious, uncompromising, manipulative, and merciless to Dre, but is happy and friendly with his friends from the dojo. He behaves very violently, uncivilized, uncaring, cruel, and ruthless to Dre and is also very standoffish, hateful, mean, unfriendly, and sadistic.
He consistently picks on Dre and loves to torment him, beating and bashing Dre and turning his life into a living hell, even when Dre minds his own business. He is also very contumacious and rebellious, resisting civilized authority. When Dre's principal stops Cheng from attacking Dre and reprimanding Cheng, he stops but this only makes him more frustrated and angry.
However, when Cheng tries to be extremely loyal, fearless, and trustworthy to his love interest Mei Ying, she grows uninterested in him after Cheng beats up Dre and instead, she and Dre fall in love and become extremely close.
Surprisingly, Cheng and his friends are not purely malicious, unpleasant, cunning, evil, and pitiless at heart. As Mr. Han tells Dre, there are no bad students, only bad teachers.
Instead, they are taught to be spiteful, nasty, unkind, loathsome, and unsympathetic towards their enemies by Master Li, their Kung Fu master. He even intimidates them and forces them to be mean, and be bloodthirsty savages.
Their dojo, the Fighting Dragons run by Master Li, is crooked, dishonest, and fraudulent with the unforgiving and monstrous Li teaching his students a new form of child abuse: kids fighting and beating each other up.
