Win's Movie and Television Production (Hong Kong) Co Ltd (Chinese: 永盛影視製作 (香港) 有限公司) originally known as Win's Movie Production & I/E Co. Ltd. and Win's Entertainment (Hong Kong) Co. Ltd., was a Hong Kong film production company that was formed by producer Charles Heung and his brother Jimmy Heung. Following its establishment in 1990, Win's Entertainment went on to become one of the powerful film producers in Hong Kong. The company helped to establish the careers of actors Jet Li, Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, Stephen Chow and Lau Ching-Wan. The company was defunct in 2009.
Win's Movie Production (Hong Kong) Co. Ltd. was formed in 1990 by Charles Heung and his younger brother Jimmy Heung. While the triad's influence on the Hong Kong film industry was growing notorious during the 1980s, Charles decided to form his own production company that would provide a safe refuge. He was quoted for saying that "every film is a battle," when asked why he named the company Win's. Following its formation, the company went on to become one of Hong Kong's most successful film studios alongside Golden Harvest. Virtually every actor and actress, apart from Jackie Chan, had made a film for the Heungs.
Win's Entertainment's filmography spans over 10 years, and some of the films it has produced include the God of Gamblers franchise Tricky Brains, the Lee Rock trilogy and the Fight Back to School trilogy. A majority of its films featured some of Hong Kong's most well-known actors including Jet Li, Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, Stephen Chow and Ng Man Tat.
