And he publicly disowned his son for smoking weed.

This is slightly inaccurate.

In the original print of his biography “my life in action”, he says his mother was a drug mule. His father was a border guard/inspector.

He caught his mother with basically a duffel bag of drugs, but was so attracted to her that he let her pass, but kept her information.

They ended up having this follow them and resulted in them moving around quite a bit, and eventually became a reason why they paid for jackie to be adopted by a chinese opera school. They didnt want to raise a kid with skeletons in their closet.

Ironically, Jackie was thrown into a position of drugs again in the 2010’s when his son was arrested in mainland China for possession of a bit of weed. He was basically forced to become a spokesperson against drugs, become somewhat of a propaganda mouthpiece, and edit and re-release his biography with the drug bits from this reddit post edited out in asia - all in exchange for his son’s safe release.

The ccp basically got jackie by the balls, ironically, for a minor drug offense, when a drug offense let slide was how his very life began.

Edit: another example of how jackie’s son’s arrest manifested. Prior to JC’s arrest, jackie never made outwardly violent or political films. After JC’s arrest, jackie starts appearing in films where he shoots people, outright kills people, and historical mainland films aimed at glorifying the communist party’s version of history.
