Synopsis: Wong Fei-hung visits Foshan to preside over the lion-dance ceremony of the Sang Cheong medicine shop. Leung Foon, an admirer of Wong, gets into a brawl which is pacified by Wong. Leung asks to be Wong's disciple. The local bigwig Tai Nan-hung has his eye on Lau Suk-fen, wife of Chan Cheung, the boss of Sang Cheung Medicine Shop. He invites the couple to dinner but then kidnaps the wife while the drunk husband is beaten to senseless. Ah Fook, henchman of Sang Cheung pleads for help from Wong Fei-hung. Wong confronts Tai Nan-hung who refuses to hand over the wife. In the struggle, Wong saves the wife but is wounded. He darts away to hide inside a house, where his wound is tended by Ah Fun, and the friendship of them grows. On returning to Guangzhou, Wong is made chief coach of a martial arts association. As Wong is feted in a banquet, 'Wild Beast' Wong gate-crashes the event to publicly insult Wong Fei-hung and his late father. Angered but not humiliated, Wong leaves. Leung Foon searches out 'Wild Beast' Wong and administers a beating to his underlings. In retaliation, Leung Foon is lured to a brothel where he is captured and pinioned. Wong Fei-hung now comes to his disciple's rescue.

excelent, thank you! couple of notes:

- author: Jyu Yujai (disciple of Lam Saiwing, author of all those books)
- martital arts consultant: Leung Winghang (student of Lam Saiwing)
- narrator: Wong Honhei (son of Wong Feihung), Mok Gwailan (wife of Wong Feihung)
Yun Winggwai, Bun Gwaiyat, Chanhonjung - well, no need to introduce these gentlemen, alll well known Hung Kyun masters. not a bad crew, right?

in the clips we can see left handed pole (Kwan Takhing), baat gwa pole (whole set! just with few little omissions, 99% same as we do it, wow), parts of "tiger crane" (well, Chan Honjung was in shape, was he not?) and whip (not Hung Kyun)

thanx a lot bro again!
