The clever man Ge Liang (played by Ko Chun B) is a master of disguise and adept at imitating various characters. He is a unique figure in the martial world, known for his sense of justice, often helping the oppressed and enjoying life. Young escort Shen Yong (played by Li Xiu Xian) and his brother Shen Gan (played by Wang Zhong) encounter bandits during a shipment, losing thirty thousand silver dollars. Subsequently, Shen Yong is captured by the security team and coerced into confessing to robbery and murder. Unable to bear his brother's unjust plight, Shen Gan seeks help from Ge Liang. In various disguises, Ge Liang investigates and discovers that the case is related to the security team leader Luo Jin Ying (played by Chan Kwan Tai), the bandit Gao Ye (played by Shi Zhong Tian), and the local tyrant Huang Xiong Sheng (played by Tong Lin), who conspired to frame Shen Yong as a scapegoat to pocket the thirty thousand silver dollars. Ge Liang devises a plan to bring Luo, Gao, and Huang to justice, restoring the Shen brothers' innocence. The Seven Faced Man is a chivalric adventure film, with its highlight being Ko Chun B playing multiple roles, showcasing his ever-changing appearances. The film is directed by Baoxue Li, who was born in Nanjing in 1936 and moved to Taiwan in 1949. He worked half-time as a student and half-time at a film studio, graduated and worked in the Taiwanese film industry for six years as an assistant cameraman. In 1967, he left for Hong Kong to officially work as a cinematographer for Shaw Brothers for three years, primarily shooting films by Yue Feng and Chang Cheh. He became a director in 1970, with his debut being The Shadow of the Moon, followed by several co-directed films with Chang Cheh. In 1977, he left Shaw Brothers, returned to Taiwan to make martial arts films for various companies, and co-founded Yu Feng Company with his wife Jin Shu Mei, mostly producing works directed by him and written by her, including notable titles like One Thousand Arrows Through the Heart, Taxi Driver, and Private First Class.
