Some actors get to play the heroes, others are typecast as the villain, and generally, this was his fate. But every film that has a hero has to have a villain, and so Tien had a good career over a number of years from the 1970s to the '90s and is considered one of the better bad guy martial artists. He retired from the Hong Kong film industry in 1996.
