Yes, please, someone please TLDR the plan...

  To change. To do different roles and things beyond acting looking that careers of Clint Eastwood, Al Pacino etc for inspiration noting that if Clint kept on repeating "Go ahead make my day" in every film his career would have been over pretty fast thereafter. The plan is constant reinvention. The underlying irony is to western audiences, including those who love his work very dearly, he's type-cast and plays essentially the same character in every film. His new grittier film likened to Liam Neeson in Taken, may change that.

  No plan, he admits defeat. "I know I'm not young anymore. I cannot continue to make Rush Hour 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. How can I continue [to] do this kind of funny face". Later he states that if he stays in the industry he will no longer act. "If I'm [to] continue on in the film industry," Jackie says, "I have to change. Otherwise, you gone. You see—in Japan. Korea. America. China. Hong Kong. How many action star all gone? Only few can stay. Stallone's different. He's a legend. Other action stars already gone. "So that's why I'm looking for different script, different character, different Jackie Chan. I want the audience look at Jackie Chan as an actor. Not the action star. Actor who can fight. Look at Clint Eastwood. If he continue to 'Make my day'? Gone. So he change to directing. He change some other things. Look at Al Pacino. Robert De Niro. I wanna be an Asian Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Al Pacino."

My interpretation is how he will keep kicking forever was from this... He hasn't been idle this decade. Idle is not one of the speeds in Jackie Chan's gearbox. "Sometimes I look at some other actors, famous actors," he says incredulously. "They're so comfortable! After filming, just holiday! With a girlfriend or the family." After filming, Jackie tends to an ever-expanding portfolio of business interests, and then he makes more films. He's just going to be doing a lot more things besides acting. I also view him and his school as something that allows him to be 'kicking forever' even if he retires. All the stunt men/women are a product of his handwork.
