Jackie Chan also said China is a relatively young country, where in the first half of its history it was "bullied by so many people", and that it only achieved "real success" in the past decade.

In actual fact, of course, Chinese history goes back somewhere close to 3000 years, making it by far the oldest country on Earth.
