Yuan

Yuan is a central antagonist of Shenmue II on the Sega Dreamcast and Microsoft Xbox. He is a cross-dressed man who has a romantic relationship with the Yellow Head leader Dou Niu. This is speculated why he is a top executive of the gang.

Yuan is seen by the people around him as very strange. He enjoys collecting knives and has a pet parrot.

When Ryo and Ren are in the Yellow Head Building, Yuan tries to kill them both with a Texas chainsaw. Ultimately, this fails with Ryo kicking Yuan into an elevator. Yuan hates filthy things, so Ren orders him to tell them where Yuanda Zhu is, otherwise a can of trash will be kicked on him. Yuan tells them, but Ren kicks the trash on him anyway. Yuan then screams hysterically with the trash all over him.

In the original Japanese version of Shenmue II Yuan was a cross-dressed man; however in the European and American versions of the game, he was changed to a female.
