Member Django Posted February 26, 2022 Member Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Cheh was furious with Jimmy for leaving Shaw, and intended to make David Chiang even bigger of a star than Jimmy became with One Armed Swordsman and so on. But I can't really see what kind of movies he would use Jimmy in post the Wuxia / Basher-era. What do you think?

Or was there one? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if there was a personal conflict between the two. Just that Jimmy broke his contract. I'm guessing that he was offered more money elsewhere after the success of Chinese Boxer, and just left for Taiwan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine what would have become of the movies Furious Slaughter or Iron Man or Rage of the master or Showdown and many other ones had they been directed by Chang Cheh ?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
