The gray walls and green trees are hidden, and there is no lack of seclusion in the brightness. It is the best place for the killer to retire after evolving into a "house girl".
As the leader of the most mysterious killer group in "Sword Rain", "Wheel King" always wears a mask every time he appears, and his private identity is unknown. John Woo once praised Wang Xueqi, who played "Wheel King". "In the movie, he is not an ordinary villain. He has to do bad things for some special reasons. He is very helpless in his heart, and he has a very good grasp of this complex emotion." This complexity seems to be seen from the "Wheel King"’s home, which looks like a living room. The room is simple and tidy without any excess decoration, and it is bookish. What attracts attention is that there are only two chairs and two cups of tea next to the square table. Who can approach the Wheel King in such a private place? What kind of secrets are hidden behind the curtain?
