Trivia[]
Unlike most Chinese characters in the game, Chu Fuk Choi rarely ever speaks in Chinese. The only instances he does are when he's assaulted or running away from danger.
His family name is Chu, while Choi is his first name.
In traditional Chinese culture, Chu Fuk Choi would more correctly be spelled Chow Tai Fook, which translates to "good fortune", which could imply that he's well-off with his bank job.
His hotel room is the same one that Harold MacDougal occupies during the mission "The Prodigal Son Returns (To Yale)". However, upon closer inspection, one can see that Choi has removed the bible from the briefcase on the bed, likely due to religious reasons.
