Among the names you listed, the ones I think are the most famous are Mao Ze Dong (in Portuguese, it's written "Mao-tse-tung") and Jack Chan. The former, for his role in history; the later, for his movies.
I remember the name "Deng Xiao Ping" from high school history lessons, but I must confess I can't really say anything else about him.
Is Bruce Lee Chinese?
About Confucius, yes, he's very famous around here. Some people even guide their lives according to his ideals. _________________ Stormy Weather. |

Bruce Lee is Chinese. He invented kickboxing, I vote for him. _________________ If I say "I love you" to someone, then I also have to say "I also love everyone else inside you, I love the whole world because of you, I also love myself inside you." -- Erich Fromm, the Art of Love |

It seems that movie stars are far more popular than politicians  |

An observation:
Bruce Lee died at 33. So did other famous/accomplished people like Alexander, Jesus Christ, Adi Shankaracharya and maybe more. |
