I can not add the cast and roles because I don't know them. Maybe other Editor can do it :?:

Added all the crew excepting:

Chan Pooi Wah: Are you sure that he is "associate producer" and not "production manager"?
"associate producer" does no exist in the HKMDb.
Maybe the translation of the credits in english is not correct... :?

Frankie Chan: Are you sure that he did (or collaborated on) the music of that film? :shock:

I did not say that "associate producer" does not exist in hk,
I said that "associate producer" does not exist in HKMDb!!!!

WorldLingo, which as always, is not very useful, says that 製片 means "movie-making" :?: :?:

I don't recognize well the chinese credits when they are "written with brush", but I think you are right and "Producion Manager" and "Associate Producer" is the same thing (at least in Hong Kong).

That means that I owe you an apologize. Sorry.

You will find an easy answer to all of your questions in http://www.imdb.com/Glossary/A

I hope this sad episode did not break our friendship :wink:

Presenter
AKA: Presents
A presenter is person (often famous or well respected) who introduces a movie or show on screen or via voice-over. Some films include a credit "Presented by", or "presents", which indicates the person is an executive producer as opposed to someone who appears in the film.

Production Manager
AKA: PM
Reporting to the film's producer, this person supervises the budget, hires the crew, approves purchase orders & time cards, and generally makes sure all departments are doing their respective jobs within the parameters of the budget.

Line Producer
A producer who is responsible for managing every person and issue during the making of a film. Line producers only work on one film at a time.

Executive Producer
AKA: Executive in Charge of Production
A producer who is not involved in any technical aspects of the filmmaking process, but who is still responsible for the overall production. Typically an executive producer handles business and legal issues.

Co-Producer
A producer who performs a substantial portion of a creative producing function, or who is primarily responsible for one or more managerial producing functions. A co-producer has less responsibility than a producer for the completion of a project. Note that if a project has more than one producer, it doesn't mean that these individuals are "co-producers" in the technical sense of that term.

too bad planning is not here but ty again for the links

Well, now I can see all clearer than before. :idea:

The credits in english of your poster were not correct.

DELETED :!: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

So John Shum and Wu Ma are not "Associate producers" but "planners", and like this I added them in the credits of that film.

Added all of them except the "composer"... :wink:

Sorry, Mr. Chinchanchung, I re-read my answer and I think I mess all again. :?

Forget my last explanations, please.

Planner = 策劃 :!:

Associate Producer = Production Manager = 製片

The english translation of the poster was not correct.

If anyone thinks I am wrong, I am open to debate---

Maybe is a piece of nonsense, but I put Warner Music as composer of that film too because it's a famous company.

If anyone objects, i'll delete it and there hasn't happened anything at all.

BTW, in chinese, Warner is "Hua Na" :D

Box office is way off

Should be HK$ 21,972,419 not HK $2,199,419.00

I was doing some quick research on early Sammo Hung film totals.
