Yang Che's credit in the Chinese version is actually "executive assistant director" (????). Not sure what that even entails, really. There is no other AD listed so maybe the plain credit would be more suitable?

Sigh. Another case where I want English and Chinese credits to be decoupled as they are listed differently. It's on my list of things to do.
In lieu of that, the preference is to use the Chinese credit when it is available...although I do not currently have ???? among the jobs. I will look at adding it.

To be fair, these are Filmark's English credits, so I don't think we should give much importance to them. The original credits have no English translations apart from the title.
As a side note, I will remove Tomas Tang's producer credit from the entry, since it only appears in the Filmark version. It does not seem like they had anything to do with the original movie.

Again it's another case of "that's how it is credited in the film". But in this case I agree with your judgement. The credits are really too sketchy, misspelled, or invented...

The movie is also called THE KNIGHT,
maybe this is the original title, but I have no
proof of that for the moment. As I recall it,
Ocean Shores called it like this on its print
with no credits at all.

Tomas Tang is the producer of the re-edition of the movie.
We should be careful with this thing, because if we remove the producer of the re-edition of a movie because he does not work in the original movie... we should remove all the credits of the Filmark and IFD movies...

@Oliver, the Chinese credits say
Assault of Final Rival too.

I don't think the situation is the same. It seems like Filmark only dubbed and distributed this movie. If we add credits based on that, we could also add many American producers/presenters and whatnot. It is not a "cut-and-paste" movie.

Sorry, confused it.
I have uploaded a screenshot of the original credit title.
Wasn't there, I think. The kind of title sounded like a re-titling
by IFD. This time not.
