After graduating from secondary school, Lee joined [Television Broadcasts Limited](/source/Television_Broadcasts_Limited) (TVB) in 1969 as a set decorator. He became a director in 1975 and was promoted to a producer a few years later. Lee was also known for making [cameo appearances](/source/Cameo_appearances) in several television productions, including a guest appearance in an episode of the variety program *[Enjoy Yourself Tonight](/source/Enjoy_Yourself_Tonight)* as "Street-sweeper Mau", a role for which he later became known.

In the early 1980s and late 1990s, Lee achieved great success in the genres of [wuxia](/source/Wuxia) and action thrillers. Many of Lee's television productions also contributed to the popularity of rising actors of their time, such as [Chow Yun-fat](/source/Chow_Yun-fat), [Carol Cheng](/source/Carol_Cheng), [Felix Wong](/source/Felix_Wong), [Andy Lau](/source/Andy_Lau), [Tony Leung](/source/Tony_Leung_Chiu-Wai) and, recently,[*[when?](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Chronological_items)*] [Wayne Lai](/source/Wayne_Lai).
