Robert Chan Law-bat + Chik Yiu-cheong + Mao Lo

I finally managed to pull myself away from some of my bigger Korean projects to finally upload a few of my small updates all conveniently centred around the films Bruce Lee Siu-lung.

It's curious how this one was missing from his filmography as it's arguably his biggest on screen role :P It's also funny that he's connected to another film I've got a small update for coming soon, Legend Of The Mountain, small world. I've added his credit and given him the name “Black Bear student”; and some pics and tagged him on Gaijin's pic too.

Looks like I put this one on hold for too long and someone beat me to the punch :P I had figured it out thanks to the behind the scenes photos, especially the black and white one where he is credited as Ricky Chik and I put 2+2 together, I assume that's what the fellow editor did too? But I've added the 5 pics I took anyway as it's his only acting credit and there was only the one portrait of him tagged, although it wasn't set as a portrait for some reason, I guess they just forgot :P

This is an interesting one as it seems I wasn't the only one who wondered about this guy's name. It seems The Great Bey was puzzled by it so much that he actually asked Jackie Chan in person :) JC told him that the guy was in fact a real Japanese (unlike most of them :P ) but worked locally in film and TV using the Chinese name Mao Lo (at least that's what I believe he says anyway). I can only recall seeing him in Fist Of Fury and Hapkido but I'm sure he's popped up elsewhere. Is it possible he's the same person as Mao Lu (2)? I did look at that person's acting credits but only one film had pics and didn't see him. As for the info, I got it from Bey's HKL commentary on Fist Of Fury, but I think it's probably from the platinum version as I certainly don't remember it from my original version, which unfortunately doesn't play any more :( So a mate sent me an mp4 of Bey's commentary but it was different, so I assume it's from the platinum. I wonder if anyone else can add to this? For now I've created a new page under the name Mao Lo and added his credit to Hapkido and FOF and named him as “Japanese womaniser” and “Susuki's receptionist” respectively and added some pics and tagged Gaijin's pic too.

Another thing – shouldn't it be “Suzuki” rather than “Susuki”? Shall I correct the associated names?


That's it for now, I do have some more bits and pieces, but they'll have to wait for another time.

Cheers
