Although 79-year-old Hong Kong veteran martial arts superstar Ti Lung has significantly reduced his workload in recent years and enjoys spending time with his wife, To Man Ming, and grandchildren, he still does not easily speak of retirement. Recently, he started work on a new film, Desire Parasite, and was spotted by the public shooting on the streets of Hong Kong.
According to on-site footage, the day of shooting was during Hong Kong's sweltering summer with extremely hot and stuffy weather. Ti Lung was dressed in a plaid short-sleeve shirt and shorts, with a towel draped around his neck, sitting by the street waiting for his scene. Under the outdoor high temperatures and blazing sun, the 79-year-old Ti Lung looked a bit weary, his expression somewhat dazed, and his complexion a little pale.
Many fans and netizens, upon seeing these scenes, expressed concern and were worried that the legendary swordsman might succumb to the heat and suffer from heatstroke. However, others noted that for someone nearing eighty, Ti Lung's overall condition was actually excellent. While waiting, even as he quietly sat, his back remained straight, and his mannerisms still faintly reflected the heroic presence he once displayed on the silver screen.
