Fairy sister Liu Yifei's dramas have never been missed, "Menghualu" and "Going to a Windy Place" have won a good reputation, and the TV series "Rose Story" has attracted much attention before it has even started. This time, Liu Yifei is going to have a new drama again, playing the first female pirate in Chinese history, a real legend.
Anthony, born in New Zealand. "Shi Yang, the Queen of the Sea" directed by McCarten and supervised by Tsui Hark, tells the story of the ups and downs of Shi Yang, the queen of the South China Sea during the Qing Dynasty.
She came from a poor background, was a prostitute in a brothel on the ship, met the famous pirate leader Zheng Yi, became Zheng Yi's sister-in-law, and went to sea with him, and saw the ups and downs of all kinds of people on the sea.
After Zheng Yi's unexpected death in 1807, Shi Yang took full control of the dreaded Red Banner Fleet, commanding more than 1,800 pirate ships and about 80,000 pirates. During this period under Shi Yang's leadership, he also encountered many obstacles and dissatisfaction, but Shi Yang's insight and courage conquered everyone.
Shi Yang initiated a sweeping reform of piracy, ordering the death penalty for ** or marital infidelity, and insisting on equality between men and women. Because of his own personal experience and understanding, in that era of male superiority and inferiority, it was not easy to put forward and adhere to the idea of equality between men and women, and he was worthy of a generation of female pirates.
The British writer Richard Glaspol was captured by her, and the two later formed a deep relationship, which allowed Shi Yang to be known by the West.
Later, he started a second marriage with his adopted son, and was appeased by the Qing court, and in 1844, the "Opium War" broke out. He died in 1849 at the age of 69.
This female legend in history is finally going to be made into a film and television work, and it is rumored on the Internet that Michelle Yeoh and **Liu Yifei are working hard for the role of Shi Yang, a rather burning female character. Are you looking forward to Liu Yifei playing this role?
