Fan Casting Mi Wai in Portrait of a Lady

The assistant manager of Hong Kong's Imperial Hotel, polished and attentive, who takes a particular interest in a certain British guest. Her true allegiance is to Beijing, her true profession is intelligence, and her true tragedy is that she is good enough at both to make Bond trust her. She is not a villain or a lover—she is a professional, doing her duty in a world that asks too much and gives too little in return. Her death is sudden, violent, and meaningless, a missile obliterating a car and a woman the audience has only begun to know.
