Taiwanese actor Lung Tien-Chiang's impressive career trajectory was largely defined by his proficiency in the martial arts and action genres, with a majority of his film appearances in Taiwanese productions, including the notable "Buffalo Hsiung".
Prior to his breakthrough, Lung's path to stardom was initially hindered by mandatory conscription in 1974, when Pan Lei's recommendation to Chang Cheh was ultimately thwarted. However, fate intervened again in 1979, when Chang Cheh returned to Taiwan to scout for fresh talent, and discovered Lung, subsequently bringing him back to Hong Kong.
Upon his return to Hong Kong, Chang Cheh afforded Lung the opportunity to take on pivotal roles in some of his most renowned works, including "The Sword Stained With Royal Blood" and "The Brave Archer and His Mate". Additionally, Lung collaborated with other esteemed directors, such as Taylor Wong, on the film "Buddha's Palm".
Lung's association with Shaw Brothers eventually came to an end in 1985, at which point he returned to his native Taiwan, marking a significant chapter in his illustrious acting career.
