Concord Production Inc. (Chinese: 協和電影公司) (simply known as Concord Films) was a British-Hongkongese production company founded in 1972 in Hong Kong by Bruce Lee and Raymond Chow (50%). Lee was in charge of the creative decisions and Chow was in charge of the administration. Golden Harvest was in charge of distribution. The Lee Estate owns 51% of Concord Films, the other 49% belonging to Chow. Concord has the following in its library: 1–Way of the Dragon, 2–50% of Enter the Dragon, 3–Game of Death footage. Raymond and the Estate agree to settle up for a flat fee buy out. Raymond buys the 51% of Concord. After Lee's death, Linda Lee Cadwell, his wife, sold his portion to Chow in 1976. Concord went defunct in 1976, absorbed by Golden Harvest. Raymond Chow went on to continue running Golden Harvest.
