Recent Interviews

When filming Legend of Chusen, the scenes she thought were most unforgettable were the ones filmed in caves. And I quote, “æ¯ä¸ªå±±æ´žéƒ½ä¸ä¸€æ ·â€.

If she could be allowed one power, what would it be? “For you all (referring to the interviewers) to disappear.†LOL. And she says this answer with a smile on her face– I can’t.

Three phrases to describe her ideal partner are “Obedient, tall, handsomeâ€.

Three phrases to describe Bi Yao’s ideal partner are “Zhang Xiao Fan, Zhang Xiao Fan, Zhang Xiao Fanâ€.

Which is harder, crying scenes or kissing scenes? “They’re both not difficult.†xD

Do you think you like taking selfies? “No.†She doesn’t take any selfies in a typical day.

Eyes or face, which one do you think is rounder on you? “My eyes.â€

When asked what she’s good at, she says “Doing nothing†(å‘呆)

Between eating or shopping, which would she choose? “Eat and shop at the same timeâ€. 

She had a pet once called Fluffy Ball, and she admits that her pet is slightly cuter than her.

If she was any animal, it would probably be a cat, who looks cute but is really quite smart.

She likes to be praised as handsome, or 帅.

 

https://discardedmusings.wordpress.com/2016/08/07/zhao-li-ying-赵丽颖-youku-interview

 

Asked if she worries about Chusen novel fans not being friendly with the drama script changes, she responds that every novel adaptation will undergo the same scrutiny and debate.

When asked whether she likes bangs or no bangs, she says she likes bangs (reason: resembles manga character more!) 

If she can pick again, she would still pick to play the character Bi Yao (cause her name sounds nice. Lol.)

Li Ying describes Yang Zi as a lovable person and hopes that fans can love and support the drama. Love her but also be tolerant.

“When will you film modern dramas?†She’s selective, looking for creative scripts to express a different side to the audience.

nah she said she wasn't, she was on a trip with friends (there were other people in the pictures) and the press blew it up

In her recent interviews for Legend of Chusen, she firmly denied it.

so pretty <33

 

she keeps using that rabbit 

 

There is a rumor she could be in the remake of Legend of the White Snake, but I hope this is just gossip. I really dont want her to do another wuxia and remakes are usually a miss rather than a hit. 

 

 

Also everyone try to fill this request for Rookie Agent Rouge, probably the only chance to see it if Viki gets license since it doesnt have much hype

I just saw the synopsis!!!!!!!          

 

 

 

EEEEEKKKKK!! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!! I’m so excited! I know I said I will write a summary for you guys and I will! I’m on vacation this week and I hope to get back into the novel to write a proper summary soon. But first! Let’s take a look at my most anticipated drama for 2017! Yes, beside Huang Xuan’s Tribes and Empires: Storm of Prophecy!Princess Agents (特工皇妃楚乔传), formerly known as The Legend of Chu Qiao, is based on the novel 11 Chu Te Gong Huang Fei (11处特工皇妃) written by Xiao Xiang Dong Er. The production has just released stills of our four main characters in Zhao Li Ying, Shawn Dou, Lin Geng Xin, and Li Qin.

 

Stills:

Zhao Li Ying, our slave girl turned female general. The still below… kinda breaks my heart a little because of the situation her character and her people are thrown in because they are labeled as slaves. Treated like trash and targets for royal bastards.

Yes, girl. Plan and execute those crazy plans of yours. I’m waiting!

Shawn Dou, the man she loves first, our male lead. Did I say I love his HAIR? AND NOW HIS COSTUMES? HEEEEHEEE. So handsome. I can see him speaking those cheeky lines to our deadpan heroine already. XD

Lin Geng Xin, the man she loves last, our other male lead.

Li Qin, a bubbly princess turned sinister after tragedy strikes. She loves Shawn’s character.

Synopsis from the Drama Synopsis (it is quite different from the novel, and I will get on to those differences later): The story takes place during the chaotic times of Western Wei, where innocent citizens are often kidnapped and turned into slaves. Slave girl, Chu Qiao (Zhao Li Ying) is thrown into a forest along with other slaves and becomes the next hunting target for the rich lords. She’s saved by the Prince of Northern Wei, Yan Xun(Shawn Dou). Afterwards, she’s sold into the house of Zhuge and witnesses the deaths of her siblings. Not accepting her fate, Chu Qiao escapes the dungeon with her younger sister and catches the attention of Zhuge Yue (Lin Geng Xin), who was also in charge of taking the lives of some of her family members (dang…). He takes care of her and trains her in various things while she develops a deep friendship with Yan Xun over the course of 10 years. During the battle with Western Wei, Yan Xun loses his whole family and Chu Qiao is willing to die to save him and sends him back to his court. However, after that incident, Yan Xun grows ambitious and cruel to avenge for the things and the people he lost. He doubts Chu Qiao and takes advantages of her loyalty and love many times before she finally explodes. Disappointed with the man she once loved, Chu Qiao works with Zhuge Yue to bring Yan Xun down and end slavery, becoming a successful military strategist/female general in the people’s hearts.

Produced by Ci Jia Entertainment (Agent X), Princess Agents plans to have 52 episodes.

right it sounds so good     and I have seen so many bts pics of her doing fight scenes, she looks super badass.

 

 

She is doing her own stunts so she has been getting injured, but I think it will make it feel more realistic when it comes out. The cast seems close, having a good working environment is important to make the story better.

I am hoping she is saying goodbye to wuxias for a while. Next is Rookie Agent Rouge coming out 9/27. And hopefully her next project will be a modern drama *_*

Zhao Liying looks so pretty, but she lost a lot of wt for this role. She had to lose 8 pounds before they started filming and I think she lost some more after.
