What's left behind the scenes
- In the new scenes, Lo Wai filmed a Chan double.
- Right in the middle of filming, Jackie Chan left the project. Lo Wai tried to make him return using the triads, but to no avail.
- The film was shot in 1980, but released in 1983, despite Jackie Chan's protests.
- When producer Willie Chan decided to move from Lo Wei Motion Picture Company to Golden Harvest, he advised Jackie Chan to consider whether he wanted to continue working with Lo Wei Motion Picture Company. Chan began filming this movie, but then abruptly changed his mind, tore up his contract, and left for Golden Harvest. Following this, the management of Lo Wei Motion Picture Company began blackmailing the actor and threatening him with triads, while blaming Willie Chan for the loss of their movie star. The conflict was resolved thanks to the intervention of actor and director Jimmy Wang Yu, and Chan remained with Golden Harvest. To complete filming, Lo Wei Motion Picture Company hired a stunt double. According to Chan, the resulting film was so terrible that he even went to court to prevent its release, but he lost the case, and Lo Wei Motion Picture Company released the film.
