Been to Hong Kong and into Shenzhen several times and never realized how much open countryside there was!   
Quite a few nice shots there! From coming up from the beach, to the river overhead pass, and high up with the city in the background!  Too bad it was foggy/misty, but I recall it being that way most of the time.

Where you using any filters on the camera?

Very nice...Looks like there's some cloudiness/gelling on the lower left of some frames.

Very cool. Minor critique would be to lower the color saturation a bit.

Thanks for the comments.

@Mr2MkII, no, I was not using any filters and yes, half of the year is foggy here.

@Tviscomi, original footage had a very high dynamic range due to the fog so I exposed to keep details in the sky and the foreground became too dark. I recovered the shadows in post and some parts just look ugly. The low bitrate of the Mavic does not handle well these scenarios.

@dancopter Thanks for the advise. I actually increased the saturation after uploading it to Youtube using its video editor so it has an easy solution. I've dialed it back to the original values. I hope now it looks better.
