THE INVESTIGATOR
The series is adapted from the novel "The Secret Investigator" (秘密调查师) by Vĩnh Thành. Hạ Đông (played by Chu Á Văn) is a corporate investigator at a global firm specializing in risk management and fraud prevention. He holds his professional ethics in high regard, seeing them as his very lifeline. In order to fulfill a mission assigned by his company and uncover the truth behind an incident in which he was framed while studying abroad, Hạ Đông transfers from the company’s U.S. headquarters to its Shanghai branch. Unexpectedly, he crosses paths with Giản Ngôn (played by Vạn Thiến), a junior investigator in the same field at the new company. As fate would have it, Hạ Đông and Giản Ngôn, though initially at odds, are assigned to work together.
