Chiang Sheng was a Taiwanese actor born in Taiwan. His family was too large, and his parents could not take care of all the children; therefore, he was sent to the Fu Sheng Opera School in Taipei, Taiwan. Chiang Sheng met his lifelong friends like Lu Feng, Kuo Chui and Robert Tai in the school. He was a boy of vivid and somewhat mischievous nature and eventually was expelled from school for smoking in the principal's office. But he had learned enough to start working as a stuntman. In the mid-70s, the renowned Shaw Brothers Studio's director, Chang Cheh, went to Taiwan looking for new talents. He met Chiang Sheng, Kuo Chui and Lu Feng there. In 1976, those three, together with Lo Mang, took part in their pre-starting movie "Shaolin Temple" (not to be confused with the movie with the same title released in 1982 starring Jet Li). Two years later, in 1978, Chang Cheh presented the film "Five Venoms", starring Chiang Sheng, Kuo Chui, Lu Feng, Lo Mang, Sun Chien and Wei Pai. All of them were still newcomers to the HK movie industry. Chang Cheh didn't include any great stars of the time in the cast, introducing new faces to the audience and the new formula of martial arts movies - in this and subsequent movies, not only one hero fights well, but any person of the main cast has his own style and great ability to fight. The movie had great success in Hong Kong and also in the West. Since then, the first five actors are known as "Venoms". (Wei Pai played The Snake, but he is referred to as "Sixth Venom" because he took part only in a few subsequent "Venom" movies, while Chiang Sheng became an integral part of the troupe. He played a disciple learning all five styles and referred to as the "hybrid venom"). The team continued with the formula. Chiang Sheng, Kuo Chui and Lu Feng, all with Chinese opera backgrounds, became action directors for Chang Cheh's movies. Soon, Chiang Sheng also started working as an assistant director.
