Having created this year’s hit American drama, who doesn’t envy Lucy Liu’s slash life?

There is definitely envy, but if you don’t go through ups and downs, how can you see rainbows? She deserves the achievements she has experienced.

Most people’s initial impression of Lucy Liu may be the title of “Hollywood’s most popular Asian actor”.

From one of the three major female stars in "Charlie's Angels", to the Oriental female killer in "Kill Bill", to the female version of Watson that was changed in "Basic Acts", to this summer's hot The wonderful performance in "The Deadly Woman".

We can take it for granted that she is one of those lucky people who have a smooth life, but in the eyes of Westerners, she has won the opportunity to play some special roles with the image of an "oriental beauty".

In fact, in the eyes of Westerners, she is not particularly beautiful and is even ridiculed as unattractive.

Speaking of birth, Lucy Liu was born in a Taiwanese family that immigrated to the United States. His father, Tom Liu, is a civil engineer in Beijing, and his mother, Cecilia, is a biochemist in Shanghai, completely out of touch with Hollywood.

Life as an immigrant is not easy. When they first arrived in the United States, Liu and his wife had to work several jobs to support their family. As a second-generation immigrant, Lucy Liu also knew how to repair the family when she was a child. She even went to work as a child laborer with her brother in a garment factory with poor working conditions.

In Hollywood, Chinese Americans have almost no opportunities. Lucy Liu knows it, but she won't miss every opportunity, and she won't perfunctory any role, even a running dragon.

She failed her audition for "The Law," but her performance moved the writers so much that they created a Chinese-American character for her.

She even earned Emmy and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations for her guest appearances. I remember when I watched "Charlie's Angels", the two white heroines, Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore, spent tens of millions of dollars, but Lucy Liu only got 1.2 million, a difference of nearly ten times!

Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore have long since faded from the public eye, nearly 20 years after its release. Occasionally, they will go looking for it, but it is just a small episode like getting married and having children. However, Lucy Liu bucked the trend one classic after another and one C position after another.

After all, Lucy Liu's lie is that she is not defined by labels such as "female", "Chinese", and "not beautiful", and she is free to fight for the life she wants.
