In 1979, Fan replaced Simon Yuen (who died during filming) in The Magnificent Butcher.

Fan Mei-sheng is the father of actor Louis Fan Siu-wong; they appeared together in the film Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. Fan retired from acting in 1994, since then he has continued as his son's manager, as well as teaching as a Professor at the Shanghai School of Performing Arts. [Wikipedia] Edit Biography
