Bosco Wong reveals his character this time is a British special agent, but he doesn’t reveal whether the character is evil or good. He hopes there will be a bigger budget this time. Bosco Wong reveals, “Filming with the original cast is definitely happy. The best is to film a series every year, continue filming it each year. I hope the ratings will surpass the first series. If the web ratings can surpass 5 billion views, we’ll get Third Brother (Michael Miu’s nickname) to take his shirt off.”

Michael Miu says, “Taking clothes off is too childish. But filming with the original cast, I definitely hope the ratings will be even better. The audience likes to watch and will continue to support. We hope to keep improving, even better than the first series.” As for Oscar Leung, who received good praise for his character “Kenny” in the first series, he hopes his character will be even more successful this time.
As for Kenneth Ma, who works for the Criminal Intelligence Bureau in the series, says, “I’m very happy. I’ve known the cast for many years. Hope the ratings will be higher than the last time. The cast lineup got bigger and even added a Hollywood actor the series. It’ll definitely be good. On the contrary, I haven’t worked with a lot of the female actors. Christine Kuo (苟芸慧) plays my wife. I have high hopes since this is our first time working together.”

Kelly Cheung will be paired up with Bosco Wong and also play a British special agent. She will also be Lee Pace’s subordinate and will be going to Britain to film scenes.
