In 1970, Bruce Lee was invited by Zou Wenhuai of Hong Kong's Golden Harvest Film Company to return to Hong Kong to star in the kung fu-themed action movie "The Brotherhood of Tangshan," which was critically acclaimed, and Bruce Lee quickly launched his popularity. He went on to star in Jingwumen, Dragon Warrior, Dragon Warrior, Tiger Tiger and Game of Death, four semi-action films that rocked the movie industry and quickly gained international notoriety.

The sudden death of the 32-year-old Bruce Lee on July 20, 1973, at the home of Ting Pei in Kowloon Tong, Kowloon West, Hong Kong, during a performance of The Game of Death, was a shocking event, and the cause of his death remains controversial to this day.
