Tsui Hark
Ching worked with producer Tsui Hark on 1987's "A Chinese Ghost Story", which became an international sensation, although it was usually Tsui Hark who took most of the plaudits. He continued to work with Tsui Hark, directing sequels to that film in 1990 and 1991, and co-directing all three parts of the "Swordsman" series, starting in 1990. Other directorial highlights included the highly successful "Royal Tramp" films (both 1992) which starred Stephen Chow and Brigitte Lin.
