　 　 After 20 years of filming Tsui Hark’s version of "Wong Fei Hung", it is no small ambition to challenge the kung fu classics again. In this regard, Mr. Jiang Zhiqiang said that this move is actually to make some efforts for the kung fu genre. "I have sold a lot of films abroad, and I deeply feel that only kung fu films can travel all over the world in Chinese movies. But after so many years, in the Chinese film world, there are fewer and fewer creators who can really make kung fu films. If you don’t make a classic, I am afraid that it will become a swan song. And’Wong Fei Hung ‘is the pinnacle of kung fu movies. We don’t want to challenge the classics, we only want to be able to copy the classics and leave the world a good
"No one has brought Wong Fei Hung to the big screen for more than 20 years," the director, Chow Hsien Yang, emphasized. "This is the longest’Wong Fei Hung vacuum ‘in Chinese film history since the 1950s. So this year is the best time to reshape the’new Wong Fei Hung series’. After a long preparation, I am full of confidence in it."

Huang Feihong was very anxious when he saw it. He and his friends cleverly set a trap, saved the poor, created a new world with their hands, and began Huang Feihong’s legendary life…

　 　 "Wong Fei Hung is an example of an Oriental superhero. This time’Wong Fei Hung ‘wants to talk about dreams, the spirit of’knowing that you can’t do it and doing it’. In times of despair, with personal will, self-improvement belief, and strong physique, you can achieve the impossible. I firmly believe that perseverance is the final victory. Start with your own beliefs and expand them to infect others and unite everyone. This is: Wong Fei Hung." Zhou Xianyang introduced that the film will retain the essence of many "Wong Fei Hung" movies. "The biggest feature is that all our actors must really fight real punches and have real kung fu. Therefore, every actor who enters the group to act will basically come to practice in advance. So far, everyone’s progress has been rapid, which makes me very confident in the movie."
It is reported that in order to show the real boxing and real kung fu, the film also specially invited the international action director Yuan Kui as the action director to train the actors in martial arts moves. At the same time, the famous Nanquan master was also invited to teach boxing for several main creators.
