One of the places that gets to see the sharp end of the satellite system's power (it's called "Dutch Boy" in the film - no doubt a reference to the dude trying to plug up the leaky dam wall with his various appendages) is Hong Kong when hot weather havoc is experienced as the satellites cause some underground piping to overheat and explode.
Daniel Wu plays the HK contact for the good guys and it appears that this footage was shot several years before the film's release. IMDB says the principal photography was started in October 2014 so I guess the screen caps we are about to look at date back a good 5 or 6 years.
Anyway, the establishing shot for Hong Kong is a nice nighttime aerial view of central, including the aforementioned 2 IFC tower.
