Overview - The Ultimate Addiction

The Commercial Crime Bureau (CCB) has been closely monitoring Bosco Wong, a financial magnate who steps on the line to make profits. He is so addicted to this game of money and power that he neglects everyone around him. Despite the deaths of his wife and mentor, he still feels no guilt; instead, his ambitions grow even larger.

Ben Wong, a CCB investigator and Bosco's brother-in-law, is determined to bring Bosco to justice. He works with his superior Sharon Chan and subordinate Kate Tsui to gather evidence against Bosco. Ben has high expectations for Kate and even views her as his apprentice. However, she suddenly quits the CCB to join Bosco's company. Kate first gains the trust of Bosco's second wife (Nancy Wu) and then helps Bosco defeat influential financier Elena Kong. Soon, Kate amasses enough power to take control, while Bosco's ambitions appear to have been swallowed. In this war-like financial industry, who determines the ultimate winner?

TVB Trends: Nostalgia

Miriam Yeung - "集體回憶" (Collective Memories)

TVB has been tapping into our collective memories a lot lately. Do you feel a sense of nostalgia when watching these series?

Never Dance Alone - The series features seven actresses from the 1990s, all of whom form a part of our childhood memories. The series will also take viewers back to their high school days.

Swipe Tap Love - The series incorporates many classic Cantopop songs that matches with the mood of the story.

Coffee Cat Mama - The series paid homage to Leslie Cheung by using his songs as background for Vincent Wong and Nancy Wu's story.

Always and Ever - The golden couple of Bobby Au-Yeung and Esther Kwan are reunited. There's even a scene of them in a shooting range to bring back memories of Armed Reaction.

Triumph in the Skies II - Watching the sequel after ten years will surely make you think back to the original series.

Brother's Keeper - Tracing the journey of Hong Kong and Macau through the last 30 years, older viewers will be reminded of the historical events that shaped their lives.

Remakes - TVB will be continuing the trend of nostalgia in their dramas by remaking some of its classic series, including Double Fantasies and The Misadventure of Zoo.
