The father of his fiancé puts $ 10,000 reward for the capture of the offender and Frank wants to earn this money. So he sets out in this strange city to find the murderer of his friend, where he unknowingly brings Mei Li in danger.

In the 60s and 70s, several such German action films were shot in Hong Kong. They were not liked by the critics, but arrived very well in the cinema audience. They were a mixture of exoticism, action, violence and sex. The main actors sometimes came from English-speaking countries, sometimes from German-speaking countries. The hero of "The Girl of Hong Kong", Joachim Fuchsberger, was one of the most popular actors in Germany. With his good looks and his casual manner, he was the idol for such films. The film is now released in Germany as a DVD on the market, but came to the cinema also an eglische version, whether the DVD is available, I do not know.
