The 63 year old veteran action actor Chi Kuan-Chun since making SEVEN SWORDS (CHUT GIM) has already "sealed his blade" for 7 years without making a Chinese film. Most recently he returned to Hong Kong to make the Dante Lam Chiu Yin directed Emperor Motion Picture THAT DEMON WITHIN (MOR GAING) as Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho)'s strict father. The emotional scenes were rather heavy as his acting bug was fully fed. He said that Director Lam's sincerity moved me. "He asked me how much I would charge for returning for a movie, I said whatever, as long as you provide the plane tickets, food and room and board it's fine." This time he put away his fist for only dramatic scenes, which inevitably made Teacher Chi feel like something was missing. He stated that he would continue to promote Hung Kuen. When he heard about a film company's plan to make a movie about it, he could not be more excited.

Speaking of recent Hong Kong kung fu film development, Teacher Chi lamented about the generation gap. He admired Donnie Yen Chi Tan's agility. Unfortunately he was not tall or big enough, which seemed to restricted his development. Actually his youngest son Donny Wu (Ng Chi Ngai) earlier already signed with Emperor and determined to follow his father's foot step on the road of kung fu, which pleased Teacher Chi very much.
