Her first appearance in an American movie was in Rush Hour 2 (2001), but as she didn’t speak English, Jackie Chan had to translate everything the director said to her. In that movie, her character’s name, “Hu Li” translated from Mandarin Chinese is “Fox”.

Even though she has been in many kung-fu movies, she is not actually a trained martial
artist, so in fact she uses many dance moves in her fight sequences.

Graduated in acting from Central Drama Academy, the top acting college in China.
