Default Chinese crime based TV Shows

Having watched 'The Bad Kids' which was excellent, I'm now nearing the end of 'The Long Night' which is also really engaging and watchable. Two very well produced and written shows.

The Bad Kids:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1247794..._=nv_sr_srsg_0

The Long Night:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1129832...tt_sims_tt_i_1

I've been told 'Burning Ice' is also along the same lines.

These are not your regular CDramas with emotional love stories or marshal arts plots. They are gritty crime dramas with cleverly written twists. The two I've seen are among the best TV dramas of the last decade.

Anybody else into them? Any others to recommend? There is a site called https://www.iq.com/intl-common/browser-replace.html which they are on and as far as I can tell is completely legit. 720p. Sadly no Blu Rays that I can see.

Are there any on Netflix or other major streaming services in the US? I watch plenty of non-American TV too, though I can't say I have watched any TV series from China that I recall, crime-based or otherwise.

OCTB and Day and Night on Netflix were pretty good. Netflix also has its own original series The Victims' Game which has a 2nd season coming out next year. There's also a lot of Chinese crime shows I haven't seen like Tientsin Mystic.
