• Yifei Liu Feels “Honor...
/ eredcarpetandawardshows
Her voice is so unique and I can’t find the right word for it, smooth, soft, nice 👍🏻
her body also soft and nice
Calm and peaceful voice 😌
You don't need word just look Shes not just an Acctris Shes a Queen off Artist and material art . But that my Way and Choice 🤗🌿🌺 Mari Mari 🙌🧡💙💚🙌🇨🇱💯
Very therapeutic
Yifei , everytime I see a Mulan poster i find myself getting lost in her beautiful eyes. She honestly is so beautiful
Yes she's so beautiful
She's a real-life Chinese angel.
I don’t think the interviewer knows how big she is in China...
I guess non chinese speakers don't really care about things in China, especially in the movie industry. But Yifei did get a big reputation at a young age.
She is a famous character in the Chinese shows\ movies
I’m really interested to learn about her. Is there any recommendation of good movies casting her?
@@tiffanychen5139 You can search for 神雕侠侣, her most famous tv show. She was only 18 at that time, but has already been very beautiful.
She is more known for her TV shows in China. Those are the ones that made her name known in China, which were streamed on television like fifteen years ago. I wouldn’t have know about this if I didn’t search her up because I was too young. Her movies in China was alright. None of her movies were outstanding or particularly good, which makes me very curious of her performance in Mulan. This might be her best performance on big screen in her career.
i spent my highschool years watching her in chinese dramas and has a major crush on her still. yifei is so beautiful. the minute i knew disney was developing a mulan live action, i immediately thought of yifei. and whenthey announced her as the title character, i was like, "i knew it!"
same :D I really like her.
Same feeling though...although i only saw her at her movie with kris tiu and jackie chan...it was like, she is the only girl for that role...
Return of the condor heroes. Her amazing drama
and when she supported HK police
Shinobi Magia people have freedom to support whoever they want...that’s called freedom of expression. Freedom of expression does not equal to ‘agree with me’ only.
You don't want to mess with a woman saying, "when she is in the moment, she can surprise herself with some moves she doesn't even know."
Her voice is so smooth
I agree. Her voice was like ASMR. She could be a little more relaxed and humorous though. The director was also so nice.
Yeah she has a soft and sweet voice
I think it's more like she doesn't speak loudly
@@rosamundtang5942 yeah so if I have a conversation with her I wouldn't understand her so much for her soft voice
AshelypouikAshelypoui8w?1😁😁😍😍😎🤗😊😃😇😚🤴👰💍💋💗💘🎂🍷🙌☺☺💌😁😁😚😚😃😃😁😁😚😘😉😃😊🙂😶😶🙂
Liu Yifei voice is soooo soothing..
She showed more emotion in the 3 min interview than the entire movie.
Usually Its the film director wanted it this that way.
Im in love with Julius Cesar in her auditions she was showing more expressions. I think she is then told to be more serious .
@@tysoon363636 That shows you how much this movie sucked. They spent $200 mil, i think so far even with the home buy on disney+ it's making $43 mil... I personally didn't like the movie, but i have yet to see one good review so far.
tysoon363636 yeah pretty much
tysoon363636 I loved the movie anyway but it is missing some elements from the 1998 version
Who needs asmr if u can listen to Liu Yifei’s voice
Our Mulan can do stunts with amazing grace! Proud of her word “character-driven martial arts”! 😍😍
What are you talking about , she is on wires and CGI idiot
We can not wait for the cinemas to be re-open again in China and watch our story on the big screen!!!
Liu yi fei haha last comment "I even surprised myself with some move" 😊
U both are amazing and m so thankful for bring this courage to real life
I've been seeing her in every Chinese movies and dramas since childhood... And she's my first Asian fav .. But I never watch her outside her drama/movie scene.. And now it's my first time watching her in the interview and BTS,, Wowww she's so calm and soft just like her Goddess beauty... I'm amazed..
Can we just talk about how elegant and graceful the moview director is?
I'm very proud of Yifei as she's definitely come so far...from her role as Xiaolongnv till now as Disney's Mulan. Its incredible achievement. And she's brave too like Mulan who is not afraid to protect what she believes in.
Well said Aya, not an easy feat.
She could use a bit of humor & energy.
Exceptional film and actors i think it deserves more credit than it’s getting at this moment .
You must be blind if you think the movie was good. Terrible directing and acting on both their part. Worst emotional reaction when the witch took the arrow and action scenes were laughable.
Yifei looks young for age 33
She's 33? I don't believe it she looks like she's in her twenties still
33 is young :)
@@dumisatonyjohnson8145 yep.. She was born on August 25,1987.. She looks younger than her real age :)
I meant almost 33.. Will be 33 this August 25 :)
One of the perks being Asian
Love Yifei so much.
I got Disney+ just to watch this movie again, and I don't regret it because I liked it even more the second time. Liu Yifei is amazing, to me she's the best Chinese actress
...aw man...who's gonna tell? Alrightttt I'll do it, the actress is a horrible person and the acting being bad only makes the move moreeeeee unwatchableee
I believe lots of fans will fall in love with Yifei after watching this movie.
She supports the ccp so I bet everyone in Hong Kong hates her
romiedahomie Show me the evidence about her saying. Otherwise, don’t say a word against her.
Alex Chang she supported the police who were beating protestors in Hong Kong. www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-asia-china-49373276
@@romiedahomie7364 That's only a small portion of hk people and there are 1.4 billion of Chinese support her for supporting HK police, so she is favored by the majority
Kyle Lucien so just because a lot of people support an anti democracy country with concentration camps, it makes it ok? How are you even sure that the 1.4 billion people in China even support the hk police especially considering that in China, you get murdered for speaking against the country. China sensors everything from Winnie the Pooh to the tiananman square massacre. The people in hk just want the freedom and democracy we have in the United States, but there government strips that away from them. I support law enforcement in my country, even though half of the country wants them dead, but the cops in the US have souls unlike the tyrant officers hk that beat people using there human rights
Well done to the director ad actress this movie was sooooooooooo awesome.I watched twice at the theater.
her voice is so soft and soothing.. i need recommendation of liu yifei movies
The Four
the third way of love,never gone, once upon a time, etc...
Watched 5x already at Disney plus ❤️😍🥰😘
the journalist could have done some homework lol...Liu Yifei is one of the most famous actress in China, she's not a new face or no name at all.
She probably meant in other places/countries...with the exception of China
agreed!!
@Cimrak 20ad Can you for god's sake not have everything involved in politics ?
@@kok-mongong2145 here we go with these antis
Liu Yifei is so gorgeous she's one of the most beautiful chineses of all😍😍😍
Can not to wait watch it.
Her speaking voice , 😍😍 I'm inlove 😍😍
I've watched so many actresses over the years from China through dramas and movies but Liu Yifei still remains like one of the rare actresses who I think really knows the art of Acting. She is Amazing.
Unfortunately, the film encountered so many dissent and severe personal attacks. I looked at the historical data of several major actors and found that they are a philanthropist and have helped many poor people, orphans and students. Disney can postpone the launch date, in reality, viewers will accept it because the virus crisis has not yet been resolved.
Many orphans and children need their help.
@HenryDavidT It may be the spirit of martial arts. Many traditional martial arts associations have the idea of promoting charity to save people.
@HenryDavidT Good press about China? Pinch me, I must be dreaming.
@@SCIFIGAMESFANS Chow Fat Yun isn't a Martial artist. He is just a nice guy with an awesome heart.
Chinese culture is giving back to the Chinese society. That's why here in Malaysia Chinese schools have much better equipments although we received no initially promised funding from the government.
Apparently, most people don’t even mention her first support role in story of the noble family (金粉世家）or Demi god and semi devils (天龍八部）before she was 小龍女. Honestly, I think she’s still the best 小龍女 of the millennium. Of course best 小龍女of all time is Idy Chan (1983). Story of the noble family, back then, she was 14.
Vivien Lee Wow. Quite an accomplishment for a young age. Do you know any more recent ones?
I love to hear actors really prepate hard before acting. This is especially important in an action movie. Some say other actresses are more suitable than Yifei. I really doubt that. It is not easy to find a so pretty and famous actress with experience in action movies.
She was perfect for Mulan, she is beautiful, and good actress, Disney had a great casting, it’s sad that the result of this movie didn’t make justice to Mulan
I like the director. Beautiful and smiling.
Yo what are you talking about
I can't wait for this movie, it might just be the best Disney princess live action yet
they took out Mushu the dragon , the songs , and one of the main characters .
I know. But it looks a lot more realistic and accurate and I'm so here for it. The Beauty and the Beast remake was exactly like the original and it made the faults very glaring in my opinion. I'd rather it be really different and more respectful to the original legend than be a cheap copy of the original, if that makes any sense. Personally I'll still watch the original if I want the songs and everything...
just watched it. it honestly is the best Disney princess live action to-date. you won't be disappointed.
@@andyk1304 I honestly can't wait to watch it
Just watch on soap2day, dont buy the movie
Hopefully everything will turned out well
Watch it once watch it twice it's going to be the best movie of the year.
I'm just watching yifei talk with no sound because I love her you know
Looking forward to Mulan
Who just saw this video to hear Liu Yifie
I still see Crystal as an 18 year old! My goodness she is not ageing!🙀🙀🙀
shes so sweet and elegant
Disney picked the right actress for Mulan. A very well-filmed movie. The best work for Yifei. Her fighting scenes beautiful as dancing!
i never knew she is fluent in english😆😍i grew up watching her movie and drama but its all her chinese movie and drama😁been her die-hard fan since 2006😍
I quite like the live action movie, finished watching it today... She did a good a great job, didn't seem like she was trying so hard to be a badass... Seemed gentle but tough
She is underrated
Her voice is so heartwarming
I love you yifei liu
Liu Yifei I love you...i love you really
Love Yifei😘
And she loves u too.
Not sure if it was thousands of choices , she is pretty well know actor in China/Asia
Cimrak 20ad OMG shut up. Yifei is one person and you people should stop directing your anger at her. Take it with the Chinese government if you are so angry and special. Leave her alone.
@@Yooncelebtarot that person full of anger..
Jannmr 31 it’s just annoying seeing these types of comments on every single video.
from the return of condor heroes when you say kung fu/action movies, best suits for female lead roles would definitely be liu yifei.😊 i just love her so much❤
For people .that watch alot of Chinese film probably know that disney gonna find yifei to shoot mulan because shes rly that big 🤣🤣🤣🤣and her beauty is unimaginable
Wow such beauty she is what a woman
Yifei so beauty
Im so inlove with yifei . I hope i can see u in the future
I am literally obsessed 😌👀💓
Can't wait to watch Mulan
Yifeiiii i love you !!
she really brave woman.
I like yifei's voice
graduated from BFA, so she got the chance to be dragon lady n started her career
I love the Mulan character she is like inspiration to all fighting being as a warrior that’s to good fighter
Sweet spirit. ♥️
She looks very cute
I pay for it on disney plus today 9/5/2020 and it's a great movie
I like Liu YiFei ❤️.
And of course she likes u too.
damm she's so pretty
No
Beautiful mulaan..😍😍
Liu yifei is the most beautiful woman in China she like a princess❤❤❤
Oh gosh I am 19 but I look older than her how could she look so young and beautiful
I love her accent tbh 😍🤩
Now thats the Girl Power we're talking about..
I hope Disney decides to postpone or delay the showing. I wonder if this movie will have a hit amidst the corona virus.
please don't say this movie represents "what it looks like" when females lead movie, women can do way better than Nikki Cairo
I still don't like the director though i love yifei's acting
awww l really agreee with you
I was just about to say that if this movie is what a female oriented films are like, than maybe we're all better off watching frickin Play School! I really hope she's wrong.
she's just like a real girl
I really like her despite Twitter hating her :(
I feel like the interviewers didn't really do her homework for this interview. They were not hard to research.
That reaction when beating out thousands women lol
What do u mean
@@oliverrumagit4101 0:02
She's my first choice when I heard there will be a remake for MULAN. I mean, i thought she's perfect for the role.
Me too
ok ccp bot.
@@sylvie3097 whats with her n CCP ? Lol shes not even a puppet of CCP? U just hate her and the movie....
she is so cute
Well just like the trailer and she said " I am Hua Mulan, I will bring honor to us all.." And Like Wonder Woman, a director and a lead actress who are both women, I think this movie is gonna be awesome..
Yifeiiiiiii
Mulan 2 ASAP please..
Hope they do Pocahontas next!
I've seen her with kris wu movie never gone din't knw she could speak english fluently better than kris wu wow
She's in the industry (chinese) for a long time now.. like more than 10yrs.. she lived in the US before tho not that long.. so
@@meowa1 wow it's great to knw tat thank u🤗
God bless my wife Crystal 🔮 liu forever
After watched mulan everyone who is corona everyone gonna forget about that
I need this girl to read me a bedtime story..
Her stories will probably be about how Xi Jinping created the universe.
She is so humble
The interviewer did not just cut the answer from yifei when askimg about how any percent u did the actions
liuyifei❤️
Love yifei
I personally think Zhang Ziyi would've been outstanding as Mulan.
That would be a great fit
I wanted to see the movie so bad but it's only on Disney plus premium
Liu Yifei could play any of the four beauties of ancient china. Let alone Mulan.
Return of the condor heroes gugu 😭
Eh Liu Didn’t even really answer the questions...but she got away with it smoothly
I think she doesn't fully understand the question being asked, which is interesting because she speaks English rlly well.
@@kroganoperator while she lived 5 years in united states, but she lived most of her teenage years in China, its hard to switch to english when you been speaking chinese all your life. the way sentences build up is different, you can see she needs to think hard for awhile before speaking.
She was grown up in USA baby
@@sugichanel9800 she just spent 5 years in USA then back again to china , r u stupid?
Did i hear the question right? O heard the answer wrong?
Liu Yifei the white fox😘
