• If only HK can part from China, it will. Ooof...Was looking forward to watching the movie, as the first post seems like propaganda and I was going to let it slide...but her last post that you wrote about makes me finally understand that Liu Yi Fri truly does not unDerstand Hong Kong and probably most from Mainland China will not be able to...I might ban the Movie after all...What a shame. She should renounce her US citizenship and return to China as a Citizen.

  • I am with you on this.

  • her last post wasn referring to her split with her long term assitant/make up artist

• Goodbye Mulan!

• What a silly girl!!! Sensitive topics such as these are best kept confined within your very close circle of friends and not in Public!

  These comments should have been "No Comment" moment. A win win situation for both parties involved. Sigh...

• I will watch mulan and support HK police!
  Hongkong riot is just part of US china trade war barganing chip. jezz people just go and read deeper without bias.

  • If biases are to be removed then a country where you are not allowed to express your honest opinions is not worth emulating. Why does Liu Yiffei has to speak anything at all? She could keep her mouth shut but she must have been asked to be vocal at the time when her movie is about to release in USA.
    I know how Chinese diplomacy works. They smile and then strike. I have also seen how they sucessfully 'homogenised' their population and Sinicized non-Han population.
    Chinese government has been accused of spying on foreign countries as well as on their own citizens.

  • How much were you paid to say this? You think people in HK would risk everything just Bc they were “paid actors”? China a communist country who wants to control every aspect of their citizen’s life! Like hell any sane person who lived under a democracy would ever believe HK riots were created by the US trade wars. Tsk tsk only loyal BJ dogs like you would say this! You’re so ignorant! ::pukes::

• The Chinese government should realize that hong Kong people are different from mainland Chinese, due to different upbringing and values, though they look the same outside.what works in China doesn't work in hong Kong. The government should compromise a bit. Look for ward to watch Mulan.

• Sometimes Silence Is Golden.

• I’ve been looking forward to Mulan ever since it was announced. Now I don’t want to watch it. Disney should sue her.

• I'm disappointed. Crystal Liu; who although was born in China but she has been living in the US for many years and even chose American citizenship over the Chinese one, should know more than anyone how important democracy and freedom of speech is. If she is loving her country so much why did she give up her citizenship? Beside, her last post, if it is directed to this issue, is so provoking and immature. I was going to give Mulan a chance despite all the changes with no Mushu and no music but with this incident I definitely won't support her nor the movie.

  • She lived in the States for only four years as a teenager, before returning to China for good.

    • Thanks for your correction! However, Crystal herself chose American citizenship over a Chinese one for a reason. If she loves her country that much why did she make this decision?
      Probably because there's more freedom in the US. So what makes her think she deserves to have freedom of speech and not the HK citizens?

  • Your first paragraph is contradictin, U say they are fighting to be heard and expressed. So if the actress expresses herself in a way that is not to your liking, she should say nothing. Isn't that the oppression that they are fighting for. Shouldn't she be given the liberty to say her peace be it 'bad' or 'good'. I'm honestly not talking sides and truth be told am ignorant to what is going on in HK and C. But with that said we r all human and we may not always think alike but we have to take a higher road. Her opinion be it bought or her own may not fit in my/your brand of thinking but instead of bashing why not ask her the Que. WHY?. She posted it social media use it as a discussion point instead of a pointing fingers game.

• Ironically, this film is produced by Disney which is an American company wanting to earn money in China.

  Also, why don’t HK people compromise and understand the history of China and where it’s going? Most HK people think they are above China people because they used to be a colony of the British. Communication goes both ways, not one.

  • Why doesn’t China respect the agreement they signed 20 years ago?
    Before Britain gave Hong Kong back to China, did the Chinese government agree one country-2 regimes for 50 years
    It has not even half way yet and China is so quick to suppress the freedom to speak, to vote and other things?
    I’m asking you, if you have lived and used to democracy and enjoy your freedom, and all of sudden, your right and your freedom is slowly taken away without your mentally prep, how would you react?
    It not happened one day or two days , did Chinese government also tried to meddle in Hongkong voting system 5 years ago?

    • So much emphasis on this Sino-British declaration but we are already halfway through and China calling it void. From what I’m aware HK judicial system is still the same as it was in 1997. Is it not? What will happen after the 50 years are up?
      The people of HK will never see eye to eye with the people from mainland China because their education and upbringing is different to them so, I hear from friends the ones that can leave will do so.

  • And what China did to Tibet and Uyghurs?

  • I don’t understand what you mean by communication goes both way? This protest has been going on because the hk government fails to answer any questions. The press conferences are meaningless when Carrie Lam says nothing. The most recent demonstration with 1.7 million protesters came out because the government refused to admit any wrong doing. The hk people wants gov to answer police brutality and collusion with the triads. I don’t think hk ppl feel they are above, they simply want and expect what’s promised to them by a treaty that was signed in 1997. I think the hk ppl know the history.
