Directed by Ng Ka Wai, starring Huang Zongze, Zhang Jicong, Chan Ka Lok, Cheng Haonan and Tao Dayu, etc. The film continues to tell the story of the unity and resistance of the gangsters in the face of new enemies and old hatreds.
The story of the movie begins with the boss Aze (played by Huang Zongze) being kidnapped by a mysterious person. His subordinates Ah Cong (played by Zhang Jicong) and Ah Le (played by Chan Ka Lok) quickly start a rescue operation, only to find themselves trapped in a trap set by Aze's old rival Anan (played by Zheng Haonan) and the foreign gang boss Ah Yu (played by Tao Dayu). Their goal is to seize Aze's territory and attempt to completely eliminate Aze's power. Ah Cong and Ah Le narrowly escaped in a fierce shootout, but lost Aze's whereabouts.
Determined to rescue Aze, Ah Cong and Ah Le contact Aze's old friends Ah Feng (played by Zeng Guoxiang) and Ah Kang (played by Wu Haokang), hoping to get their help. However, Ah Feng and Ah Kang are reluctant to set foot in the underworld for personal reasons, and can only provide some information. During the investigation, Ah Cong and Ah Le discover a larger conspiracy: Ah Ze's ex-girlfriend Ah Xia (Wen Bixia) has always been resentful and wants to take revenge on Ah Ze, and she is the real mastermind of this gang war.
With its tense plot, vivid character portrayals and intense action scenes, "Za Zhi 3" successfully brings the audience into a gangster world full of revenge and betrayal.

In a fight to the death, Aze breaks free and fights alongside Ah Cong and Ah Le. Although Anan and Ayu's men were defeated, and Ah Cong and Ah Le also managed to rescue Aze, Ah Xia's appearance gave the story a tragic twist. Ah Xia's revenge is so keen that she holds a gun at Aze, and both Ah Cong and Ah Le are shot by her when they try to protect Aze. In the end, Aze and Axia walked together to the end of their fate in a confrontation full of love and hatred.
