At the time of the shooting, the staff had already thickened the equipment for Hiroshi Ikechi in advance, but he had stopped fighting for 15 minutes before he and Donnie Yen. He said that in the play, he would use judo to fight Wing Chun, and in many actions he had to hit close and short and fight with his hands and feet. In addition, Donnie Yen was too strong as an opponent. After he blocked a few punches from Donnie Yen, almost his entire elbow was already sore. Because Donnie Yen's hands are as hard as iron as soon as he puts on force, the staff can only continue shooting after applying medicine to relieve his pain. Donnie Yen said that he spent almost 9 months practicing Wing Chun. The worst part is that he hurt his old problems before half of the scene was filmed. He couldn't lift his right hand at all, and he had to arrange for a masseur to come to the studio. On standby. Afterwards, he discussed with the action director Sammo Hung, suggesting that all actions should be changed to be played with the left hand. Sammo Hung agreed to this suggestion. Fortunately, he has a background in martial arts, so he can successfully complete the shooting.
