Crystal Liu Yifei strips for The Assassins

On September 26, Zhao Linshan’s latest film The Assassins (铜雀台), previously known as Bronze Sparrow Terrace or Bronze Sparrow Platform, starring mega star Chow Yun-fat and actress Crystal Liu Yifei, premiered in Beijing.

Crystal Liu takes on the dual role of Diao Chan and Diao Chan’s daughter (Lingju) in the historical romance film that focuses on Han Dynasty warlord Cao Cao (played by Chow Yun-fat)’s life in his later years.

The film revolves around a story that Mu Shun (played by Japanese actor Hiroshi Tamaki) and Lingju, a pair of young lovers who have undergone five years of training in a prisoner-of-war camp to become assassins against Cao Cao, prepare to accomplish a secret mission.
