But in Hollywood, nobody expected the young karateka, who had not mastered the French language, with open arms, at the beginning he had a dime for the details and, while attending a language course. When the need does not come and in the end, Jean-Claude decided to marry a second time - the daughter of the owner of construction company in which he broke. With him, it has not slowed down since the shot has started in its first stage, and when its financial problems left behind.
