（单词翻译）

 If you love Justin Biber, then you would know Never Say Never. If your favorite star is Will Smith, then you would know The Pursuit of Happiness. And if you know them all, you also would know Jaden Smith, son of Will Smith and the friend of Biber.

 
Jaden came to be known through costarring with his father in The Pursuit of Happiness. The crew was busy finding the right one to play as Will’s son just before acting1. Then one day, Jaden just said to his father” Let me have a try.” During the audition2, his father was surprised to find little Jaden had already remembered the line.
 
His audition convinced all with comments like “he inherits a lot from his father”. Well, it’s not that easy for him to win the role though he learned the line by heart during his parent’s conversation. Will said Jaden needed to do more for his team would never give him the privilege. Actually he did take 6 screen tests before settling down.
 
The son and father’s acting portrays3 a moving American Dream and encourages more to fight in plight4. Jaden got more after that movie. Especially The Karate5 Kid in 2010 in which he got the chance to costar with Jacky Chan, the famous Kung Fu star all over the world.
 
He practiced martial6 arts at the age of 3 and kept learning after that. In spite the early learning, he received intensive training before acting. “I love this for it helps build my muscles.” Jaden said so and even showed his eight- pack abdominals. Jacky Chan praised him for doing all the actions without stunts7 and predicated him to be the next action star in 5 years.
 
Besides acting, he also did dabble8 singing. He sang together with Biber for the theme song Never Say Never. But he declared he would track his parents’ route to grow into a big star. At the same time, his father has a way to guide him. He is always telling his son to be more diligent9 and never allows him to use stunts. Would he be a super star under father’s guidance? Let’s wait and see.
