As a child, he was considered highly intelligent. His academic awards were arranged in his house in an unusual pattern. However, his parents mistreated him, for instance, getting angry at him for only scoring second on a test. In order to escape, he began sneaking away from school and watching movies. He eventually became a movie director, producing B movies such as Dragon Hell at first before moving onto other things. Some of his movies were even remade by other directors. He became very wealthy and famous.
