The wayward General gun runner runs his operation from a nice beach in Burma somewhere. Except in reality it's just Starfish Bay (at low tide) in Ma On Shan. Any kung fu fans worth their salt will know this place from countless 70s era movies. I've only covered one other movie that was filmed here so far - Snake in the Eagle's Shadow - but I am sure many more will be included in the future.

Snake in the Eagle's Shadow - Jackie Chan (1978) - Starfish Bay, Ma On Shan
This is another frequently used location, although I only heard about it when looking into locations for some screenshots from some IFD/Filmmark cut and paste movies. This location is actually not very far from the old sandy track that can be seen in movies such as Drunken Master and The Young Master. It still basically looks exactly the same because most of the modern development has ocurred behind camera.
