Synopsis: At 20 episodes long, “”Treasure Raiders 2002″” or better known as “”Siu Sup Yat Long””, is Felix’s latest TVB series. This story is based on Gu Long’s original novel. Felix Wong stars as the hero Siu Sap Yat Long. Maggie Siu, plays the role of Fung Sie Leung, Siu Sap Yat Long’s friend. Annie Heung plays the wife of young hero Lin Sing Bik, Sum Bik Kwan who also loves Siu Sap Yat Long. Hugo Ng makes his return to TVB and takes on the role of the evil Siu Yiu Hau. Tsang Wai Kin plays the role of a true gentleman, Yeung Hoi Tai, who is also one of the renowned “”6 Young Gentlemen Heroes””. Finally Kwok Yiu Ming plays the young hero Lin Sing Bik and husband of Sum Bik Kwan. There was an 80’s version of “”Treasure Raiders”” produced by TVB starring Patrick Tse Ying as Siu Sap Yat Long. But once again I don’t recall to have seen it so I won’t make any comments on that series. It is a story about a feared and hated swordsman who is the guardian of Chor Lau Heung’s treasure. At a young age Siu Sap Yat Long was instructed with the task of keeping Chor Lau Heung’s treasure secret for 60 years when he can pass the information onto the relatives of Chor Lau Heung. Siu Sap Yat Long is a lonely wanderer with an infamous name. He loves to drink and is the top swordsman in the world. Like most of GU Long’s stories this one also has its many twists and turns. There is plenty of plotting and mysteries to solve. Combined with a difficult love triangle. Siu Sap Yat Long actually falls in love with a married woman and his friend Fung Sie Leung is madly in love with him. So which one will win out in the end?
