background
After foreign films initially dominated the Chinese market, the producer Ren Jingfeng hired Liu Zhonglun as a cameraman. He bought a manual film camera from a German dealer and staged the popular opera in the open air. Since synchronous sound could not be recorded at that time, Ren concentrated on action-heavy scenes like "Asking for Fight", "Fighting with a Sword" and "Face to Face Fight".
