] Working with director Yuen Woo-ping and producer Ng See-Yuen, Chan made had his first real successes in the industry, with "Snake in the Eagle's Shadow" and "Drunken Master".

Chan made a couple of further films for Lo Wei, but together they were unable to replicate the success of Chan's Seasonal Films releases. When film producer and friend to Jackie, Willie Chan left the company in 1979, Jackie followed, breaking his contract with Lo Wei to join Golden Harvest.cite web
