The bad guys are running their operations from an industrial site in Kowloon Bay. The landmark that helped place this particular site is the building in the background of the first image. It's the former Amoycan Industrial Centre. It was redeveloped into an apartment complex starting circa 2020 following a devastating fire that killed two firemen in 2016. The relative location of our filming site puts it somewhere along the old Kowloon Bay waterfront in an area that is now completely occupied by Telford Gardens and the MTR Kowloon Bay depot. In fact, I am fairly certain this was part of the former PAcific Islands Shipbuilding Company shipyard. If you read my recent post for Die sieben Masken des Judoka (aka Casse-tête chinois pour le judoka) then you will recognise the small hut with the Chinese roof in the background. This was one of my pandemic finds when I had a whole bunch of time on my hands - another one that I forgot to post about until I was writing this post.
Anyway, as you can see in the lower image, the same small hut with the Chinese roof can be seen in the image below as can be seen in the stills from that film, shot the same year.
