Among them, Andy Lau, Xiang Huaqiang, Long Fang and other leading actors, as well as director and screenwriter Wang Jing, are all the main creators of "God of Gamblers".
As the boss of Yongsheng Film and the producer of "The Supremes", Xiang Huaqiang's background and origin have always attracted the most attention on the Internet. In fact, as early as the 1970s, Xiang Huaqiang made his debut in the film and television industry as an actor, starring in more than ten movies, but unfortunately he was not popular.
As an actor, Xiang Huaqiang's most classic screen classic role is Long Wu in the "God of Gamblers" series. He is the most reliable friend of the God of Gamblers, the Gambler and the Gambler. Not only can he fight, but he can also provide gambling funds. He is as powerful as Xiang Huaqiang outside the movie.

The two male protagonists Andy Lau and Alan Tam in "The Supremes" respectively played Asia's number one magic hand A Crab and Asia's number one gambling king SAM , a pair of professional casino partners. Not long after the start of
, the two masters came to the United States. Because a group of professional gamblers came to the casino where Brother Long was, they won more than 60 million US dollars, and they could not find any evidence that the other party was cheating, so they had to ask them for help.[Attentive viewers can notice that the helicopter the two took to the American casino is the same helicopter used in the opening scene of "God of Gamblers". 】
They successfully cracked the gang of conmen, which helped Brother Long a lot, but also offended the Japanese gambler group.

In order to avenge his brother, Sam asked Brother Long for help and made a bet with the Japanese gang. In order to repay the favor, Brother Long used the power of the casino behind him.
What is shown at this time is that, a 2-minute clip edited from multiple shots.
In "The Supremes", Brother Long is answering the phone in an extended RV. This look should be the closest to what Xiang Huaqiang looks like in reality, full of domineering.
After the phone call was made, the camera shifted to Tokyo, where two foreign killers swept away Japanese casinos with guns; then, a Japanese gang leader was assassinated in a massage parlor;
The camera then moved to Hong Kong. In the bustling downtown, Two Japanese men in suits were killed in the middle of the road;
The camera then moved to West Germany, where several killers shot at Japanese cars with submachine guns , and a desperate man rushed to the front of the car with an grenade and detonated it, killing both of them;
Finally, When we arrived at a hall, the Japanese gang gathered together and sat down to wait for Brother Long's boss to hold a meeting to discuss a solution.
Brother Long’s boss was the last to arrive. First, Brother Long introduced SAM, and then his subordinates took off their windbreakers. Then they sat down in the main seat in a smart manner, and then said domineeringly: You can start!
The boss of the Japanese gang asked to resolve the conflict at the gambling table. Ah SAM accepted the other party's conditions. In the final gambling game, Brother Long's boss also supported him all the time.
Ah SAM won the final bet and avenged his brothers, relying on careful planning; but being able to set up this overall situation, all depended on the powerful power of the casino behind Brother Long.
Without the support of such forces, the Asian gambling king will not be able to take revenge.
The Japanese gang was robbed of their territory and killed people, but they only dared to deal with SAM at the gambling table, but did not dare to touch the boss of the American casino. One can imagine how powerful they are!
In fact, the God of Gamblers does not dare to mess with the casino easily.

Finally, on a gambling boat on the high seas, the God of Gamblers dared to secretly sail the boat back to Hong Kong because the boat owner, Uncle Xing, was his friend.
In "The Gambler", the third uncle ( Ng Mang-tat ) took the gambler ( Stephen Chow ) to an underground casino for the first time, and he was beaten when he won money.
mainly because he did not want to kill the goose to take the eggs and bring down the banker; so bought Xiaolei Neifang and at the same time bought Thirteen Points. You win alone, and all the players who follow the trend and buy small money lose; the banker has no loss, but offends the players who follow the trend.
Later, in the heroic film "Casino Tycoon" starring Andy Lau, he played the role of Macau gambling king He Xin (the prototype is Stanley Ho), a real casino emperor who takes both black and white.
How great his wealth is, how powerful he is.
Jianghu is a place where strength is important, and so is the Jianghu in the gambling world.
