Vanessa Wu

Vanessa is Wu Feng's daughter, and Sammo's goddaughter.

She loves Sammo's cooking, and he was also her teacher in martial arts. Vanessa uses her skills to defend her father's Chinese restaurant, The Silver Pond, from Nathan Babbott's henchmen.

When the excitement causes Wu to suffer a heart attack, Sammo and the staff of The Silver Pond encourage Vanessa to be in charge of the restaurant in his absence. However, she is unwilling at first, wanting to live her own life. Eventually, she is abducted from her home by Babbott's henchman, in his final effort to get her father to sell the restaurant.

Vanessa is an artist, and has been known to paint nude models.

Vanessa is an excellent fighter, she easily beats up 3 or 4 people in one hand-to-hand combat. A superb martial art expert, she proves her great skills in two big fights clobbering seriously her enemies and damaging badly more guys than Sammo does in parallel fights. It confirms that her fighting ability and fast moves are more than equal to that of Sammo.
