My athletic background as a stunt actor is firmly rooted in the sport of Chinese Wushu (Old School, as it's now called). I used to be a member of the German National Wushu Team for many years and I won quite a few national & international titles back in the day. I first came to China in 1989, and then again in 1992, to train with the professional Wushu teams of Zhejiang and Hebei. This is when I got my Chinese moniker De Long (德龙). "De" because I am German ("De Guo" is Germany in Mandarin) and "Long" (Dragon) because I was born in the Year of the Dragon. Admittedly, not very original, but it has grown on me.

In Germany, I had worked with actor, fight choreographer & Wushu champion Li Yanlong (李彦龙) and his stunt & martial arts group for almost a decade, until I traveled to Shanghai in 2002 to play a small role in the Chinese TV production "Yuan Hai Qing Tian"(缘海情天), starring one of my all-time favorite Chinese actresses, "The Face" Wu Chien-lien (吴倩莲). After that, I decided to stick around for a little while...

Over the past 8 years I have appeared in countless productions, anything from small-time to big budget, from soap to arthouse. I've hit the cutting-room floor more than once, but I've had the chance to work with (and to learn from) many top actors & directors during this time. I have somehow managed to establish myself as a fairly well-known foreign actor & stunt performer in Shanghai, but I'm particularly fond of the action movie projects I did in Hong Kong... no milestones of film history by any means, but a childhood dream come true in any case.
