In the fight scenes designed by Hollywood, there are generally "Easter eggs" of Chinese martial arts

In the "Mission: Impossible" series, Tom Cruise has never been beaten by the villain without being able to fight back.

Yang Liang said in an interview, "I am a martial arts expert. I designed this fight scene, and it will definitely reflect Chinese martial arts. For example, when Brother Tom hit me, I blocked the few blows. , are all Chinese martial arts movements. My action design concept is to add the spirit of Chinese Kung Fu, but not too obvious, otherwise the audience will be confused if too obvious Chinese Kung Fu appears in a foreign movie wearing a suit. "
