American actor Daniel Wu has opened his luxurious home in Los Angeles to Architectural Digest (AD) China for a tour.

美国演员吴彦祖邀请《建筑文摘》中文版参观其位于洛杉矶的豪华住宅。

In a video posted to the design outlet's YouTube channel on March 3, the 50-year-old showed off his home by starting from his pool in the courtyard.

3月3日，这位50岁的演员在该设计杂志的YouTube频道上发布了一段视频，从庭院中的游泳池开始，向观众展示了自己的家。

Before coming to fame with a film career in Hong Kong more than 20 years ago, Wu had majored in architecture at the University of Oregon. He said he bought the house because the courtyard reminded him of Chinese architecture, specifically the siheyuan in Beijing. Siheyuan are traditional Chinese residence compounds with a prominent courtyard design.

20多年前，吴彦祖以香港电影事业成名之前，曾在俄勒冈大学主修建筑学。 他说，自己买下这栋房子是因为庭院让他想起了中国建筑，特别是北京的四合院。 四合院是中国传统的合院式住宅。

Speaking mostly in English, the star of films such as New Police Story (2004) said he extended the courtyard to put in a swimming pool because he wanted the five elements – water, earth, fire, metal and wood – to be present in his house.

吴彦祖主演过《新警察故事》（2004年）等多部电影，在视频中他主要用英文介绍。他说，他把庭院扩建成了游泳池，是因为希望家中能包含五行元素——水、土、火、金、木。

He then moved to his living room, where many artworks and knick-knacks were displayed. One of the paintings on display is by his 11-year-old daughter Raven, his only child with his wife, American model Lisa S.

随后，他来到客厅，这里摆放着许多艺术品和小摆设。 其中一幅画作是他11岁的女儿雷文创作的，雷文是他与美籍模特妻子Lisa S的唯一孩子。

Calling Raven a "really amazing artist", Wu said the abstract and colourful painting was done by her when she was nine.

吴彦祖称雷文为“非常了不起的艺术家”，并表示这幅抽象而色彩丰富的画作是她9岁时创作的。

Another "artwork" of note is a mobile phone with an arrow through it. Wu said it was the result of a failed archery practice session. The actor, who practised archery in high school, said he went back to the sport during the Covid-19 pandemic, when many were cooped up in their homes.

另一件值得一提的“艺术品”是一部被箭穿过的手机。 吴彦祖说，这是他在一次射箭练习中失误造成的。 这位高中时练习过射箭的演员说，他在新冠疫情期间重拾了这项运动，当时很多人都被困在家里。

He said: "I was trying to film myself shooting at a target, so I put the phone on top of the hay bale and meant to shoot the hay bale, but the arrow went high and went right through the phone."

他说：“我当时想拍一段自己射靶子的视频，所以把手机放在了干草捆上，本意是想射干草捆， 结果箭飞得太高，直接穿过了手机。”

Wu, who said the phone is still working even after the incident, kept it with the arrow intact as a keepsake.

吴彦祖说，尽管发生了这件事，但手机仍然可以使用，他把箭和手机一起保存下来作为纪念品。

He also showed other parts of his house, such as the master bedroom and kitchen, in the video. He said the kitchen, in shades of red and white with many symmetrical elements, was inspired by the late American director Stanley Kubrick's classic science-fiction film 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).

在视频中，他还展示了房子的其他部分，如主卧和厨房。 他说，厨房以红色和白色为主色调，包含许多对称元素， 灵感来自已故美国导演斯坦利·库布里克的经典科幻电影《2001太空漫游》（1968年）。
