AKA Wang Lung-Wei.
The most prolific of the Shaw Brothers’ villains, and therefore a familiar and weirdly loveable presence.
Crippled Avengers (1978):
Plays Wan, the bodyguard and major domo of Du Tian-Dao (Chen Kuan-Tai), who helps him on his campaign to cripple everyone who disrespects the family. He’s the guy with the very impressive ball-and-chain weapon.
Life Gamble (1979):
Plays the crooked gambler Mao Kai-Yuan, the Golden Lion, whose casino (Lion Rock) hosts the title game. Outsmarts everyone and nearly gets away with the precious jade before being himself outsmarted by Qiu Zi-Yu (Philip Kwok).
Clan of the White Lotus (1980):
Plays Governor Kao Ting-Chun, nephew of Pai Mei (Wilson Tong), who seeks revenge against the Shaolin in general, and Hung Wei-Ting (Gordon Liu) and Wu Ah Biao (Lee King-Chu) in particular, for his uncle’s death. Also the nephew of the White Lotus (Lo Lieh), whose help he calls for, setting the plot in motion.
