Hong Kong Entertainment 1979: A Beating Up the Manager at the Start

"Good luck!"

A Japanese voice came through the phone, and then the call ended.

At this moment, Yuan Hua remained very rational, without venting any emotions. However, his movements were much quicker, and the camera shook slightly.

All the industry professionals present were immediately impressed by this shaky camera lens.

They guessed that the style was similar to that of the promotional video for "A Better Tomorrow".

Everyone is even more excited for what's to come!

Only a small number of ordinary viewers gasped in surprise.

"Why does this protagonist seem more like a villain? He speaks calmly, yet exudes an air of dominance."

"Isn't that normal? He used to be an instructor for the Flying Tigers!"

"What's wrong with the drill instructors? Aren't drill instructors human? Aren't you worried about your families?"

"That's why the protagonist was trembling all over!"

......

Here, Li Jiangbo is playing with a contrast effect: when ordinary families receive a call from kidnappers, they are all worried and fearful, looking pitiful.

Yuan Hua's calm and serious demeanor further highlights his previous identity.

Li Jiangbo also added a mischievous disclaimer on the far right: "Do not imitate movie scenes. Any resemblance is purely coincidental."

The point is to tell everyone that movies are movies, and you are not Yuen Wah. There's no need to confront the kidnappers head-on. If you need to, call the police.

It wasn't until Yuan Hua rushed to his ex-wife's house and, with the help of his friends, that he obtained information about the kidnappers.

His friend told Yuan Hua that he only had 96 hours.

If this time is exceeded, he will never find his daughter again!

Then, his ex-wife covered her face, tears streaming down her face, and kept begging Yuan Hua to find their daughter!

On one side is the calm and decisive Yuan Hua, and on the other is his ex-wife who is in complete disarray.

The comparison between the two reveals a deeper level of characterization of Yuan Hua.

Under the arrangement of her daughter's stepfather, Yuen Wah boarded a private plane bound for Japan.

On the plane, he kept playing his daughter's cries for help and the voice of the criminal, trying to memorize the criminal's voice so that he could know if the criminal was the criminal just by hearing those words.

Here, Li Jiangbo sets up Yuan Hua's ability to understand Japanese, laying the groundwork for his later solo infiltration of the Japanese mafia.

Otherwise, how can you, a Chinese person, who doesn't speak Japanese, act conveniently?

After Yuan Hua got off the plane, he rushed to the hotel where the two had disappeared.

Then, using the hotel wall as a springboard, he climbed up to his daughter's room with his bare hands.

The audience watching this scene was terrified. In Hong Kong at that time, who would film a movie like this?

The audience was relieved only after Yuan Hua entered the room.

After some deduction, Yuen Wah learned how Rosamund Kwan and Chu Lin had been kidnapped.

They found a roll of camera film in the two men's backpacks, and after developing it, they discovered Wu Qihua's figure.

This process demonstrated Yuan Hua's composure, skill, and reasoning ability.

Furthermore, Li Jiangbo was filming with a handheld camera, and the shaky footage allowed viewers to deeply understand Yuan Hua's psychological changes.

On the other side, Wu Qihua, wearing a yellow jacket, was still waiting for his next target at the airport when he saw a beautiful young woman walking out of the airport alone.

At the behest of his accomplices, Wu Qihua prepared to carry out the plan.

Because Ng Kai-wah has a very handsome, boyish appearance, he quickly struck up a conversation with his target.

Just as Wu Qihua was about to succeed, Yuan Hua pushed him into a taxi.

He was then beaten and kicked, but with the help of his accomplices, he managed to escape.

Yuan Hua struck two or three fatal blows and knocked his accomplice to the ground.

Then, Yuen Wah drove a car and had a thrilling chase scene with Ng Kai-wah on the highway.

After jumping off the high bridge, Ng Kai-wah was hit and killed by a Lucky Car. Ng Kai-wah's son-in-law was thus killed.

This climax brought the audience a series of surprises.

Whether it's the chase scene on the overpass where they're going against traffic, or Yuen Wah's brutal beating of Ng Kai-wah and his accomplices, it's all incredibly thrilling.

Subsequently, with the help of a former colleague, Yuen Wah obtained clues on how to find the gang.

In an attempt to locate the gang, Yuen Wah tried to disrupt the streetwalkers' business, but ended up being driven away by the gang members.

But he had already planted a listening device on the man, and then carefully listened to the gangsters' conversation in the rented car.

After making some inquiries, Yuan Hua learned the location of the construction site and then rushed there without stopping.

The camera suddenly shifts to a construction site where work continues even at night.

Then a group of workers in overalls, covered in dirt, lined up with money.

Yuan Hua was among them, following the group of workers inside.

The camera follows Yuan Hua into a house built of wooden planks. It is dark inside, and occasional coughs can be heard.

The audience below the stage seemed to understand what was going on, and they all became nervous.

As Yuan Hua lifted the tents one by one, the audience could see women covered with tattered blankets, their hands covered with countless needle marks.

Yuan Hua lifted a tent, and the audience below gasped in surprise, silently praying, "Don't find Zhu Lin, don't find Zhu Lin here!"

Finally, Yuan Hua found his daughter's coat in a tent.

Without saying a word, he knocked the man down and straightened the girl's face.

The audience finally breathed a sigh of relief, because they realized that the girl was not Yuan Hua's daughter, Zhu Lin.

Because Yuan Hua hit a customer, the gangsters came looking for him.

Then, amidst a series of camera shakes, Yuen Wah knocked down the gangsters in suits one by one.

His movements were clean and swift, without any hesitation, and every move was aimed at vital areas.

The audience below the stage felt no pain at all; on the contrary, they found it even more exhilarating.

The gang members arrived quickly, all carrying weapons.

Yuan Hua grabbed the gun from the second person and then began the Mozambican shooting method.

They unleashed a barrage of shots at the gang members.

With his incredibly accurate marksmanship, Yuen Wah could definitely take down a gang member after three shots.

People who are shot often receive two bullets to the chest and one to the forehead.

The scene was chaotic, and the gangsters even accidentally killed the woman who made money for them.

The audience members held their breath, their eyes glued to the screen, afraid of missing a single detail.

After Yuan Hua killed everyone, he helped the girl out of the shed.

Just as the audience below the stage was about to catch their breath, Yuen Wah put on another car chase scene.

After Yuan Hua drove his car and knocked those people over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to discuss the matter.

"Put it on, those Japanese devils deserve to die!"

"Every time Brother Hua kills a Japanese soldier, I feel a surge of joy; it's fucking awesome!"

"All those Japanese deserve to die! Those inhuman bastards!"

The movie actually depicts a common situation for Hong Kong audiences. There are gangs and devils like Snake Boy in Hong Kong.

However, this world belongs to capital, and they cannot resist it!
