Biography
He was one of a few actors, who have been entertaining Kung-fu fans, since one of his first starring role in the '70's hit The Black Dragon. He was, originally, the star of this film, but, they were trying to push Ron Van Clief as a major star (since Jim Kelly had just made a name for himself in Enter The Dragon). Ample with fists, feet, and weapons, he falls the same category as fellow actor Kuan Feng, as he can give as good as he gets. He started out in films around the same time as friend (and sometimes screen foe) Chen Kuan-Tai, as they've appeared of countless movies together, with The Killer Constable, being one of their better outings.
In The Karate Killer, he was as fast and deadly, as he's been in most of his films, as it was very rare for him, to give a bad performance. In Hell's Wind Staff, he showed that he had a flair for Comedy, appearing with silly man (and terrific acrobat) Meng Yuen-Men. Then, along with Yang Sze, he co-produced the film Bolo, The Brute, which displayed their talents for handling a film from all aspects. Films like Shaw Brother’s, Iron-Chain Assassin and The Supreme Swordsman, show that this multi-talented actor/fighter, could hang with the best of them.

Battle For Shaolin and The Magnificent Kick, tested his range as an actor (and a fighter), giving him the types of roles, that made him a dependable hero or villain. Young Vagabond, had him fighting against super-villain Wang Lung-Wei, while Portrait In Crystal, gave him another of his off-beat roles (as he's played in a number of Occult-based films). Yet, Men From The Gutter, helped prepare him for the "Modern Action" films, that would (eventually) dominant Hong Kong Cinema.
