From a Hong Kong and comparative perspective, Yeung argues that we should consider the structural similarities between the shared production conditions of taiyupian and Cantonese films, and adopt a broader view on the film circulation from wartime Shanghai, to post-war Hong Kong and Taiwan, in Mandarin, Cantonese and Taiyu. The porosity of these competitive film industries will be illustrated in this chapter with the particular example of the female spy series that spanned between 1946 to 1966, between Shanghai, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Yeung will show that taiyupian and Cantonese films share the same sources of materials from Chinese culture and the West. Moreover, Taiwan cinema (Taiyu and Mandarin) and Hong Kong cinema (Amoy, Cantonese and Mandarin) also influenced each other mutually. This chapter studies two pairs of taiyupian and Cantonese films, The Best Secret Agent 天字第一号 (1964) and Lady Spy No. 1 女间谍第一号 (1965) and The Tormented Beauty 烽火佳人 (1958) and the third film in The Best Secret Agent series, Golden Pheasant Heart 金鸡心 (1965) to shed light on the connections between Taiyu cinema and Hong Kong Cantonese cinema during the Cold War.
