Concord Production Inc. (Chinese: 協和電影公司) was a production company founded in 1971 in Hong Kong by Bruce Lee and Raymond Chow[1] (50%[2]). Lee was in charge of the creative decisions and Chow was in charge of the administration.[3] The Lee Estate owns 51% of Concord Films, the other 49% belonging to Raymond Chow. Concord has the following in its library: 1–Way of the Dragon, 2–50% of Enter the Dragon, 3–Game of Death footage. Raymond and the Estate agree to settle up for a flat fee buy out. Raymond buys the 51% of Concord.[4] After Lee's death, Linda Lee Cadwell, his wife, sold his portion to Chow in 1976.[5] Concord went defunct in 1976. Raymond Chow went on to found Warriors Films Company, or Cinema City Enterprises in 1970.
