On a drizzly day earlier this year, Ci Sha, an actor from Southwest China's Sichuan province, sat in a car to cross the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. The windshield wipers repeatedly swept away the raindrops, and through the misty haze, he caught glimpses of the azure sea beneath the bridge, the longest of its kind in the world.

"It's a great project. I could imagine the challenges and hardships faced during the construction," Ci told China Daily during a recent interview.

Interestingly, during Ci's trip to Macao — his first visit to the special administrative region — the actor, born in 1997, was scheduled to portray an engineer involved in the design and construction of the bridge.

He conducted intensive research, including watching a documentary about the bridge and Lin Ming, the chief tunnel engineer of the project. Ci felt a deep sense of respect upon discovering how a total of 33 immersive tubes, which form the main body of the island and the tunnel section of the bridge, were installed amid complex circumstances.
