His well-known roles include Loong Kim-fei (龍劍飛), Leung Fuen (梁寛) and Detective Inspector Wah (華探長). A native of Taishan, Guangdong, Cho began his actor career at the age of 15, and eventually starred in more than 700 movies. He was a compulsive gambler. Legend has it that he lost the Wah Tat Studio, which produced most of his movies at the time, at the gambling table. However, it is not certain whether the studio was owned by him. He emigrated to London, England, with his son in 1990, but returned to Hong Kong to join TVB in 1993. He went back to England in 1997 as his wife was then suffering kidney disease. When she died in 2000, he returned alone to Hong Kong. In August 2006, he was hospitalised for a month after falling down stairs at his home. He returned to England in November of that same year, and died of haemorrhage of stomach two months later in a hospital. He is survived by a son in England, and a daughter in the United States. One of his goddaughters is Connie Chan Po-chu.
