Jackie Chan's ancestral home is clearly Wuhu, Anhui. Why did he claim to be from Shandong?

Because Jackie Chan didn't recognize his father in those days, and his father didn't tell him that his ancestral home was Wuhu, Anhui Province, but only knew that his ancestral name was "Fang", so he claimed to be from Shandong. Later, Jackie Chan said that he was a descendant of Fang Xuanling, the famous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and at that time he took his family to Shandong to look for his ancestors. There was no result. Fortunately, after all the truth came out, Jackie Chan knew that his ancestors were from Wuhu, Anhui.

It is said that Jackie Chan made a joke when he claimed that he was from Shandong. Jackie Chan became famous very early. At that time, there was a variety show, and the host asked Jackie Chan where his ancestral home was. In fact, he didn't know it at that time. After all, his father hid the past from him, and he even replied to the host that he was from Shandong. The supporters then asked him where it was from Shandong. Jackie Chan's answer was ridiculous, saying that he liked Weihai, Shandong, so he was from Weihai. This answer is humorous enough, but it is understandable that Jackie Chan later learned that he was from Wuhu, Anhui Province, and his surname "Fang" was not false, but he was not from Fang Xuanling.

Jackie Chan's father, Charles and Lee-Lee Chan, whose ancestral home is Wuhu, Anhui Province, left home to make a living in the early years. After arriving in Hong Kong, he changed his name to Chen Zhiping with his wife's surname, and later gave birth to Jackie Chan. Actually, Jackie Chan's real name was Chen Gangsheng, but he was renamed Jackie Chan by a director because he entered the entertainment industry. Before that, because his father didn't tell him his ancestral home, he could only declare that he was from Shandong for the sake of public image, and the truth was not revealed until his father personally said that his ancestors were from Wuhu, Anhui.

As for Jackie Chan's life experience, whether his ancestral home is in Shandong or Wuhu, Anhui Province has always been controversial, but in the final analysis, it is still necessary to speak according to the actual situation. Jackie Chan's father personally admitted that he was originally from Wuhu, Anhui Province, so Jackie Chan is naturally the same.
