Divine Retribution (世紀之戰) is a TV drama series broadcast by ATV in Hong Kong on 11 September 2000.[1] The series is supposed to be a sequel to TVB's 1992 series The Greed of Man, and was initially called (大時代2000), literally "Greed of Man 2000".[2][3] Part of the reason for the name change (Chinese + English) was said to be due to legal rights disputes.[4] Douban reviews have suggested that the sequel to a TVB series being adopted by a rival channel ATV was actually not a major controversy.[1]
