Trivia[]
While gambling, he can occasionally be heard complaining in Cantonese about the greasy playing cards and the filthy poker table. (Upon closer inspection, the cards and poker table in the Blackwater Saloon are dirtier than those found anywhere else in the game).
When not at the card table, he can frequently be seen standing around outside the Blackwater Law Offices building just down the street from the saloon, indicating that he may work there.
He appears to live in the collection of houses on the south end of town, since he can sometimes be seen standing around or sitting on one of the porches.
His outfit is identical to the one worn by Stanley Palmer, minus the top hat.
Like most Chinese characters in the game, Wong Bing speaks in the Cantonese dialect of Chinese, hinting at his place of origin in Guangdong province.
Wong Bing can also be translated as "王炳", the word "王" (Wong) is a fairly common family name in China, while the word "炳" (Bing) means light or brightness.
Wong Bing, like other Chinese characters in the game such as Sam Wah and Jung Fook-Sing, wears the traditional 'Queue' hairstyle that is native to China.
