The new series "Extraordinary Prosecutorial View", with a theme on strange cases and produced by Lam Chi Wah, will start filming soon. This time, Ricco Ng is levelling up to first male lead; he and the other male lead, Joe Ma, are both challenging highly difficult roles!

Ricco, who has always played well-behaved boys, is fulfilling his wish of playing the role of an undercover agent and law enforcement officer this time. When interviewed, he happily expressed, "I am very excited and looking forward to it. I don't care too much about whether the screentime is heavy or light, but this opportunity is very hard to come by. Since I was young, I had already been influenced by cop shows, such as 'New Police Story' and 'E.U'. Since joining the industry, I have always wanted to try this kind of role. Have finally let me encounter it this time!" He previously filmed the series "Communion", attaining Producer Lam Chi Wah's recognition, pointing out that he will greatly cherish the rare opportunity that he has provided this time: "Because he has so much confidenence in me, I am not as nervous as last time. I know that, as long as I follow their direction, the outcome shouldn't be bad. I looked at a few episodes of the script, and it's extremely interesting. The addition of Joe's character has made the entire series even more fresh". Asked if he had to get muscular, he said, "May need to be more mature this time. Also don't need to be super muscular. I have always worked out...am already mentally ready". Ricco is leading for the first time. His father, Bill Ng, has also had a popularity surge from "Midlife, Sing & Shine!", even becoming the hot favourite. Many netizens previously suggested that the father and son collaborate in a series. Asking Producer Lam Chi Wah whether he would fulfill the netizens' wish, he frankly said, "Can also look for him to have some fun, but Bill's schedule is not that easy to arrange! If there's a chance, can look for him to make a cameo!"

Hera Chan Encounters a Scumbag Again

As for the other lead in the series, Joe is playing a prosecutor full of a sense of justice, determined to find out the truth for the victims so that they feel a sense of relief. This character has a rare 'mirror-touch synesthesia', fully experiencing other people's feelings and even pain. Since only one or two percent of people in the world have this symptom, Joe admitted that doing research and preparation was very difficult; the portrayal is definitely a big challenge: "This character's illness is very special. There is not much information on the Internet. Also have to communicate very clearly with the director. See how they want me to portray it...how light and heavy it should be. There is a certain diffulty. Apart from experiencing other people's feelings and touch, can also simultaneously feel pain. Have to see how the cases in the series are expressing it. When viewers watch it, there will definitely be a sense of novelty".

Female lead Alice Chan is playing a lawyer who is determined to get revenge on Joe; the role is quite ruthless. She expressed in an interview, "Playing a lawyer who is really good at fighting legal battles. I am not playing a lawyer for the first time, but have to really look at the script becore thinking about how to portray it. I have worked with Joe and Ricco before...have a tacit understanding. Only want to start working as fast as possible now".

Hera is also taking part in this series. This time, the producer has even found her good partner, Matthew Ho, to cameo as a scumbag character, playing off of each other again. Hera previously encountered scumbag Karl Ting in "The Beauty of War". This time, she is getting hurt by a scumbag again. She said, "I still don't know what the actual content will be, but also greatly looking forward to the role this time. Although it is already the fourth time working with Matthew, it is the first time getting bullied by him. Hope that the feeling that comes out will be a pleasant surprise". Matthew frankly said that it is a new attempt this time: "Because I have never been a case character before. Thanks to Producer Lam Chi Wah for giving me another opportunity to work with Hera after 'Silver Lining'. Hope that viewers will not get tired of it! Since it is the fourth collaboration, certainly have to make some breakthroughs. In fact, the difficulty of the role is quite big this time. Have been warm guys a lot, but it's really the first time as a scumbag, and it's extremely awful this time. I was also dumbfounded when I heard the story. Never thought that the scriptwriter could go so extreme with this character. Hope that fans don't become scared of me after seeing it!"
