Dante LAM Chiu-Yin, BBS (English: Dante LAM Chiu-Yin, July 1, 1964 -), is a Hong Kong film producer and film director who has worked as a film actor, action director and assistant director. "Beast Detective", a collaboration between Lin Chaoxian and Chen Jiashang, won the Best Film and Best Director at the 18th Hong Kong Film Awards. However, "The Supreme Scoundrel", a collaboration between Lin Chaoxian and Chen Jiashang, was shortlisted for the Worst Director Award in the 2007 Golden Flower Film Awards. Its leading actor is Liao Qizhi. Among Lin's team, the famous screenwriter Wu Weilun is one of them. They have been working together since 2001's "The End of the Road" and are known for their hot plots and solid writing. Lin Chaoxian's movies are very particular about the details of police operations and the use of firearms. In addition, starting from "The Witness", Lin's works began to pursue detailed descriptions of the psychological changes and struggles of each character, opening up a new path for literary drama in action films. From 2008 to 2012, Lam Chiu-yin collaborated with artists such as Nick Cheung Ka-fai and Nicholas Tse Ting-fung to film "The Witness", which not only made Nicky Cheung the best actor in the film industry, but also brought Liu Qizhi to the spotlight again. "The Informer" transformed into an offensive and intense chase scene, and the "Little Ghost" played by Nicholas Tse won the Best Actor award at the Hong Kong Film Awards.
