- Li Ziqi’s videos about life in rural China have enchanted millions around the world, but the internet celebrity has never spoken to an English-language media outlet-until now.
In our exclusive interview with Li, she talks to us about her life, her craft, how she ended up making videos, and her early struggles as a one-woman band.
This is the final episode of our three-part collaboration with Li Ziqi.

柒柒啊啊啊啊我死了
It touched me when Liziqi said she makes videos for people with stress and anxiety. That's exactly why I watch her. Such a lovely, genuine human being.
Me too, its the best medicine 👍
I literally left a comment on one of her videos saying they relieve my stress. She is a breath of fresh air 💓
Literally she is very talented
same
Same, when I have an anxiety attack I always watch her videos and they're soothing. Helps me sleep most nights honestly
Most people today are so urbanised that they can't believe that anyone can do these things, but for many in the countryside of the world it isn't a choice or a trendy thing, it's just life.
People really are too urbanized. I'm grew up in a small town and left to go to school in the city. I was also shocked when I was looking for interenships that they had programs teaching city kids where their canned food came from. SMH
So true
Well said!
But with that said if even half of the urbanized population went back to the countryside it wouldn't be sustainable.
Linda T we’ve been robbed of this information by our society and it’s really sad
I dont care if she doesn't film the videos herself or no. The fact they are about her and her grandma's life together, how they share and care for one another is beautiful. The videos are enjoyable and instructional, colourful and you can't help but admire the motivation of Li and dedication to every detail.
SHE DOES NOT ALLOW people to film her WHILE SHE IS FILMING for youtube! that bitch is a fake communist propaganda machine
@@faye_isc Can you stfu already?
@@faye_isc Send us evidence please
@@faye_isc she’s just farming stfu
youtube is banned in china its just obvious propaganda
It's quite sarcastic to see Ziqi commenting here showing her open heart, as the interviewers did not seem to be interested in her at all. You guys were like you just wanted to get the job done, but the whole point of her doing the videos is for people to feel relaxed and away from their busy work. How sarcastic.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep it's quite ironic that most people still knew what I meant even though I was using the incorrect word. Thanks for the correction.
Yes, the woman who did the interview sounded arrogant. I mean come on, if Li would talked to me about bamboos, I don't mind listening. I can learn so much from her.
Yup. Bad interview for sure
Totally agreed. They totally played liziqi’s video in the last two parts of “interview” .... they just want more views on their channel! So lame
I think you mean ironic.
I don't think it was arrogant. The problem is that it started as a documentary, but it ended on a strange note as a commentary. Without the ending, the video is fine. The commentary at the end should have been a separate video like behind-the-scenes or whatever.
And this is why ZiQi keeps to herself; to avoid people who can't appreciate her craft. It's obvious that they did the interview for the clout and money.
The presenter can't do anything, so why she is very jealous 😂
They even stole one of her vids n re-uploaded it into their own channel, lie through their teeth telling that it was liziqi interview part 1 zzzz
I’m so glad she didn’t allow the interviewer to see her secret way of filming. The interviewer acted so nice in Camera but talk shit behind her back afterward. Lin is smart-much respect to her craft.

you can open this
A new interview about LiZiQi by another producer th-cam.com/video/YvggQUW0g7w/w-d-xo.html
EXACTLY ! Then she had the AUDACITY to recommend LI'S video by another producer. Ugh ! It's LI ZIQI or NOTHING.
A closer translation of ZiQi's opening statement is
"I would like that when people come home from a hard day of work, they can open my videos and feel a little more light hearted, feel like they are experiencing something beautiful to take away some of the anxiety and stress"
Which is really lovely of her to think of her audience that way
Love her work
I agree , this translation is so much better ✨
oh Katelyn, to be 18 again and buy everything I see on TH-cam... this is so fake and constructed you can smell the glue for pete's sakes, Chinese government fingerprints are all over this thing
@@Jigger2361 stfu since when showing rural life is propaganda??? I mean if so China will never be a superpower if everyone stays in the rural area and lives an outdated life like LiZiQi.

@@Jigger2361 Pretty much every video on YT has a narrative it's trying to paint just cause this video features Chinese and the government probably had a hand in it doesn't mean people can't enjoy it fool. There's plenty of propaganda out there anyways, pretty much every country outputs propaganda and does shady things, China just happens to do it more. People are here to enjoy Liziqi not your annoying griping.
She had a tough n miserable childhood, parents divorced, she stayed with her dad, dad remarried n she not well treated by her step mom more so after the passing of her dad, always tortured by her step mother.; Such as not giving food to eat, did all the chores n her step mom will pressed her head into the water till she can't breathe.
Finally,her grandparents took her under their care, her grandfather was a chef in their village, she was his kitchen helper n from there she learnt her cooking skills.
After the passing of her grandfather, she had to quit schooling at the age of 14 n started to work n take care grandma.
She worked in big cities doing sales, restaurant waitress,worked in the kitchen finally she decided to go back home to take care her grandma.
She did online selling but all not doing well n one day she uploaded a video of her cooking n went viral n the rest is history.
For making calligraphy pens n the ink, she took classes from a master for about half year.
When asked, she humbly replied she is not telanted just that she grown up in the environment n all these skills are the daily life in the village.
She apreciate China's 文房四宝（the scholar four Jewels ), she attended classes n also from online learning.
She indeed a girl with telent n multi skills.
Raisa Choudhury from what i understand li is more active on weibo (chinese microblogging site like twitter) so she might have talked about it there.
@@raisachoudhury4071 She really was abused.. :( You can learn more about her here: th-cam.com/video/xXp1-u0Psio/w-d-xo.html
Cinderella
the environment educated her alot. i experienced the hard life also during childhood. and i enjoy now the result of the previos hardworking
Thank you for breaking that down. I agree she is very talented and a beautiful person inside and out. She glows with love.
If you watch the video of her harvesting corn you know what she does is real and hard work.
yeahh
her newly uploaded video of growing to harvesting to cooking rice is spot on real
Watch the vid when she makes the ink and brushes to write with... She MAKES it! The ink takes 1 year to make.
And and and a mushroom she plants that she uses after A YEAR!!😵😍
Its better for me to listen liziqi talks about bamboo even for 1 hour rather than listen your disrespect words for 10 seconds,
Ikr! So rude
Yes yes yessss
IKR! disgusting really
Yes, too rude!!
zhou zhiquan I didn’t like the after talk of the interview. Were they laughing because they were bored of the bamboo varieties or can’t wait to get back in town to drink.
"Success is a heavy word, I'm just filming my life."
That's Mean lizi's life is success
@Flare works harder bro, maybe one day your propaganda will succeed
@Flare Damn bro, not everything China is about the Chinese government, just like how Americans aren’t just about their awful government. This video focuses on the life of Chinese people, not their government. If you want to complain about the Chinese government’s awful doings, do it somewhere else, maybe under a video specifically highlighting those issues. Here, we’re celebrating a Chinese individual’s life and what she brings to the world. Chinese people are more than their government.
@Flare the US has a larger incarcerated population than China's, despite the fact that China has 5 times more people. The US has bombed, invaded, destroyed at least a half dozen muslim countries in the last two decades alone, China has not invaded any countries for decades. The US killed about 1,000 times more people in Syria, Libya and Iraq than China killed in Tiananmen. Only naive Americans like you buy into neocon US propaganda. Unfortunately there are quite a few people like you...
@Flare u are talking everything so real as if u are living in china.unfortunately I know how full of shit u r since I'm the one living here
I disliked because of the rude and unprofessional interviewers, not because of Liziqi. That beautiful angel has made my anxiety melt away several times. She did not deserve this!!!
Liliana Berzoza Rude? In what way does the interviewer became rude? When did she? Or are you that “sensitive” and “paranoid” that you equate something to rudeness?! *^%#****!!!
@@juliaasintado3086 Bitch, calm the hell down. If anyone is sensitive, it's your easily offended ignorant self that felt the need to go off on me instead of going on with your day. Congrats on getting some of that attention you wanted for about a minute.
@@naminerain18 She didn't call you names. "Bitch"
@@kneesock9725 Ok, that's nice.
@Liliana Berzoza
Seems like the word 'rude' was taken too seriously for Julia Asintado. She didn't even give a shit about the 'unprofessional' part. Completely neglected one word and focused on the more argument-worthy word. Well fucking done Julia.
I completely agree with the interviwer being unprofessional(first) and RUDE(second). What is unprofessional, will likely introduce other negativities (OBVIOUSLY).
This reporter was honestly not up for the job. She doesn't even seem interested and just wanted Li Ziqi to tell her secrets before trying to be friendly. Barely any good questions were asked compared to another interview and Li Ziqi didn't even offer this reporter any fruits lmao. She's making these videos to make others happy, not to be be exploited for views.
Which is the other interview?
Yes so true
Sanaa Alk There is the other one interview about her , that is better than this. Copy ‘李子柒 新浪采访‘ in TH-cam, this is the Chinese interview and volunteers add the subtitle ~
You want be successful if you act like bitches. I hate the last part of the vid!
That ending was completely unnecessary and definitely ruined the interviewer's image in my mind. It seems she doesn't take her interviewees seriously.
This interview didn't do her justice. And the commentary at the end came off as distasteful 😔.
th-cam.com/video/YvggQUW0g7w/w-d-xo.html watch this one it's much better
@@user-yt7dq2kl2t thank you!
The interviewer is typical Hong Kongers arrogance who think of themselves superior to mainland Chinese and having "White Supremacy Complex" who look down on their own race.
Who would care if she had help or not? It doesn't make her any less amazing. She is blessed and is very sweet to honor her grandparents.
Exactly
People should be less jealous of others success
@@phuongbui1239 jealousy can sometimes be a good thing. I guess just not in this case lol
Unfortunately, I think it is naive to think it is not all staged. Probably not even her grandmother in videos. No human being can master all this including making furniture wtf and yet still looking like a model and perfectly clean clothes, table. Btw. I live in village so I know it is impossible to do all this yet making all fancy videos 🙂
@@David-dyfy lol she takes care of herself a lot
@@alecocothunder8277 not sure if I understand your response, lol means you dont agree or you agree? Obviously she takes care of herself and it goes along well with what I have said. If you really work that hard you dont have time to make it look so fancy. You would look dirty :)
Should've had Asian Boss do this interview, wouldve been amazing
Yuuupp!👍
Agreed 100% this interview's just ugh
THAT , should be next on HER agenda !
agreeed
Yep
The end of this vid was kinda disrespectful to Li Ziqi. The interviewers were pretty dismissive of her.
This is exactly what I'm thinking.
Ikr??? Very rude
I cant agree more with you.😒
y the private zoom too...ew
agreed, that turned me off
I was really surprised at the end, i didn't expected that lack of interest and that kind of attitude. So rude.
Yes agree with you
No wonder she rarely gives interviews if she experiences people like you!
UUUUHHHHH 👌🏻
she is so rude to liziqi
@@salikking3159 how is she rude? she’s just asking questions
@@katherineamelia98 They edited the video and removed all the parts where the interviewer was rude after facing backlash. That’s why you can’t see it.
@@sheshystar9380 Nope.
We did not need to hear how he tore his pants at all. The interview could have been better and the condescending tone of the interviewer was really cringy to me. Liziqy means so much to so many people around the world. She showcases chinese culture in such a loving way that it is impossible to not fall in love with it yourself. She does everything on camera herself, what more proof do you need. In Georgia, Saqartvelo we have a saying - people perceive others the same way they perceive themselves. Love you liziqi please keep doing what you love. liziqi+1, anxiety+0.
I’m from South America and truly admire her and her amazing skills and culture. The interviewer was extremely jealous of her beauty and brains
I have to say, that I don't give a damn about whether she's a one team woman or twenty team one. There's no doubt that the content is from her own head, she makes the food, she does the farming, she does the ACTUAL JOB, filing it is just a part of it. Just enjoy the video and haters need to stop yapping around so much.
Sneha Ganguly There is the other one interview about her , that is better than this. Copy ‘Li Ziqi interview Xinlang‘ in TH-cam, this is the Chinese interview , but the volunteers added the subtitle ~
ExActly I don't understand the obsessive questions about it. Who cares?
Wow, this is such a loss of a great opportunity to have an "exclusive" interview with her. This interview lacks information, depth, and respect for her work and person. Why bother traveling so far and waste her time to put out trash like this? You could've ask her so many questions about her life there, after getting popular, and her shocks and struggles switching to city vs rural life. Li ZiQi is not only a famous and loved internet celebrity, but also a Chinese culture influencer and ambassador. Many international audiences see her work and want to visit China or became interested in Chinese culture and food. She instigated interest in her country and heals people by letting them experience nature and traditional rural life behind the screen. Her 10 min priceless session about bamboos may seem boring and useless for you, but it's a wealth of information that we are interested in. Release that video please! Bamboo work and art is something only humans can do and wouldn't be replace by machines. Each bamboo grows different, have different density, and needs certain durations of heat and strength to bend.
I know, rightttt. I wanna listen to the bamboo explanation too 😭
Gosh, I wish I had the platform & opportunity to meet Ziqi. I will put it to work with my amateur journalism skill!
❤️
Felicia beautifully said.
You are so much SMARTER than this producer!!!!! I agree with everything you said.
The answer to your question is China government.
What I notice in her interviews though is that she only addresses the filming and editing process. No one ever mentions how she appears to be a master at dozens upon dozens of different things at such a young age. How can a young person literally master that diverse of many talents and crafts including computer photography editing all while taking care of garden and grandma and pets and chickens etc...it is hard to believe. But she never speaks about those things.
IT IS ALL CHINA PROPAGANDA, THEY R USING SOFT POWER, china doing genocide n slavery to chinese muslims. They dont value humanity. (U can still love chinese culture, but for love of humanity, pls hate ccp)
Bc she learns those things. If I remember correctly, she grew up in a rural area, which means she has exposed to this lifestyle while growing up, then she moved to the city, which also means she has exposed to technology and stuff like that. If you watch her, you know that she does take classes like sewing. She also watches YT to learn new skills like when she made the oven.
I personally don't think it's that hard to believe bc that's how a lot of people in my country live too. Before there are machines, we literally have to do everything ourselves. Like my mom, she used to have a small pig farm, and she is also capable of doing everything herself, from cooking (from scratch btw like killing a chicken and stuff like that), cleaning the house (using a piece of cloth since there was no mop or vacuum), washing our clothes (by hands btw), take care of the pigs, her 4 children, her parents and parent in law. My mom also knows how to sew, knit, make kites, has chickens, fishes, 2 dogs, a garden etc. My dad also, from cooking, farming, gardening, building houses, steelwork, crafting in general, etc. And this is not my parents only btw but the whole village lol. People used to live in a community and learn from each other's skills. Maybe if you never grow up in a rural area with a village like that, it will look strange, but as someone who has been there, it just looks very familiar.
@@vjbkbkllhgvjhbki5019 That is great, life at its best!
@@Mihae796 she didnt seem disrespectful, or annoyed or bored, she just seemed surprised that there is so much to talk about bamboo. but i get that it could be interpreted as bored. she might not be the best interviewer
@@Mihae796 the link you send is a shorter video than this one
I see why she doesn’t do a lot of interviews. It’s because of people like this interviewer. So disrespectful!
Agreed! THANK YOU!
What was disrespectful
Superfly _guy the end mostly
@@Covers-and-Commentary yea
Agreed!
Shes sitting on the furniture she made a few videos back!
Yes, she seem very genuine.
Just here to thumb up all the comments that do Li Ziqi justice.
I don’t care if she is having the whole village help her make these videos. She is one incredible woman.
She does many things an imaginary princess could never do. She's a legend.
She has experts on set. She makes furniture, clothes, makeup, alcohol, farms, cooks, even does woodblock printing for goodness sake. It would take decades to become so masterful in all the trades she performs on her channel. I mean no disrespect, the quality of her videos are fantastic. But there's a whole production team behind her channel. Do you think she also buys expensive camera equipment, films, edits, captions, and uploads the videos unto dozens of websites herself too? I'm Chinese living in Australia btw 👍
#M_Alc We dont go with that shit like what camera she used, how many crew she has, the thing she do in her video was fake or not we just watch the video which make us satisfy, feel satisfied, inspire us make us feel relief you know, btw if you live in a countryside you can do all that shit.
My father who used live in a small countryside can do all those shit like making guitar, hunting, wood crafting making basket farming, food, good at any instrument, painting, teaching and a technician, well I am not bragging about my father but, im telling you those countryside people are crazy as shit, dont take them as fools for not knowing the latest technologies they are much more smarter than most people in the city
Why be a princess if she could be the queen
She's amazing ...and Wondering and wonderful...She's Wonder woman....powerful and energetic ...i really love and respect her work...she's inspiration of everyone's....may God bless and protect her ever....Ameen
I wish and pray if I meet her in this life ...🥰⭐
She is doing something very wonderful for the world. Her heart is pure, her mind is so full of light. All her videos have the same good vibes that one can get from watching them. She is wise to let music and action flow through her videos. Soft music opens the heart, action speaks louder than word. In this way, the audiences’ mind remain silent. That is why the videos are so calming.
Those who think otherwise about her, have darkness in their minds, that is why all they see is darkness in everything. The problem lies in them, not in her. They are more receptive to darkness than to light. I practise meditation so I know such things.
I just bought herbal scented tea from her. I just hope success don't overwhelm her and leave her with some space to breathe and remain grounded to earth. I noticed she always seems to face sideways in almost all of her videos, even in this interview. It seems she don’t like to be filmed facing directly in front of the camera.
Beautiful words!!!
Ps: In this modern world, we are easily to get exposed to everything. Social media brings us together but also destroys us at the same time. I value privacy and I respect her privacy.
She actually is a very shy girl
@@kietymcleod2471 you are right. At her first fan meet recently, she showed her shyness by turning her body around on stage and saying she was nervous. She got stage fright then.
But in reality, i feel tat she is very brave..
She is lucky tat she had a grandpa who was very skillful in many ways.
The fact tat she learnt so much at a young age shows how smart she really is.
I am glad she also got some light tat led her to do good for not just her grandy but the world. She wanted to bring peace to ppl. Tat was her intention for doing the videos.
It goes to show how gracious she is as a human being.

So many of which I am one have lost their authenticity. Every day life can steal our true authenticity and we spend so much of our life trying to reclaim it. I’m soon to be 78 and have spent the past decade looking for mine. This is not a complaint but a true fact for my life experience and there is no reason to find fault. These are choices l have made to make a successful and comfortable life.
Good health and an authentic approach to this beautiful life are gifts from God that deserve our protection and respect. I’ve been blessed with good health and continue to search for the authenticity of my childhood.
Thank you Li for helping me find my way back. Many Blessings
Great responses from Li Ziqi. The interviewer at the end was so goddam rude. You’re literally mocking her for her knowledge and wisdom.
That's what I call the crazy interviewer, she just wants to be in front of the camera with a famous face like Li Ziqi.
Agreed!!
I would be happy if Li ziqi would make a video with her voice to explain what she's doing, to get the knowledge that she has and enjoy the knowledge behind the making of her videos.
@@octobrerella She already has. Months ago she posted a video on her channel explaining that yes, she is in China, and yes she does her own work. Check out her channel, it's there. th-cam.com/video/hL5HlwzuAUA/w-d-xo.html

Hey i want you embrodiary stiching to learn iam 50years old i seen only one design if please put more videos on stiching
Agreed! I wont be clicking that!
I do not appreciate how you made fun of her in the end, you seemed to not be interested in her at all. Thank you for this insight but shame on you for not taking this more serious.
I agree. They are a condescending bunch of people who shouldn't be doing interviews or shooting videos.
agree
Totally agree. This was super unprofessional...
It was a {fine line} between being nice - to being disrespectful. People need to realize that the young lady who does all the cooking takes this seriously in a humbling way, which being a humble person is hard to find in a busy city...
Aaaaah the ending was beyond annoying
This interviewers , i dont know man. You dont deserve liziqi.
👌👌👍👍
When she said “we can’t confirm it because we weren’t allowed to see her film” like?? Were they also suggesting that Li Ziqi was faking it?? Ugh :(

she's envy i guess

She makes preparing things look so easy but there’s a whole lot of love, time, and patience behind the production. From the food and handmade items, to the cinematography of her vlogs.

"If you want to see more videos like these"
Not from you I don't. This interviewer was horrible.
apawstate And ugly
They were disrespectful
And annoying
The way she ended the video was horrible . "She went on for 10 minutes about bamboo" what are toh trying to say!? You cant even do one task out of the hundreds that liziqi does
@@watashi_no_proxy and she said that "that was interesting" "that li ziqi is knowledgeable about bamboos" and "about country side and nature"
or ya'll didn't hear that part of the video? 😌
@@ashif_tiff yeah if u can't hear the sarcasm there and how she laugh mockingly when reminiscing about the situation, i can't help u
What was the point of adding that snippet at the end? This was the most disrespectful you could have been to your subject. What an utter disgrace to journalism. I wonder why she even agreed to sit in this interview, what lies you spun to her in the proposal. Shameful.
Actually, I'm very glad they added that. Now we got a better glimpse of their actual facades and got to know they're genuinely disrespectful dicks
There's a reason why Liziqi has over 6 million subs, but it seems as though the interviewer wasn't really interested in her content at all and came across quite rude, especially in regard to the ending, why did you bother interviewing her if you weren't prepared to listen.
Whether it's Li all alone by herself or a team of two or even five people, she's still amazing !!!
GOLDTHREAD, your disrespect is subtle but palpable. if you think it's not verifiable why didn't you do more research or interview, instead you went over there, did a superficial and insincere interview (the superficiality and insincerity bing inherent or specific in this case), and kept hinting on her claim being "unverifiable". it's sheer disrespect wrapped in pseudo journalism, lacking any shred of professionalism. not only is your interview not doing her justice, but even shaming yourself.
Ann Nil maybe they where allowed to make a 10 min interview, they just said it they weren't allowed to film a behind the scenes, and probably the agreement was to present her videos so she could reach other type of audience. And I truly believed she even saw the 3 part series before and gave it ok I mean she even commented a heart sooo. She stills needs to be mysterious
yes they need 2 get out of the city ...its making them detached n desensitized to wholesome organic content ..go work for a gossip mag
Ann Nil There is the other one interview about her , that is better than this. Copy ‘Li Ziqi interview Xinlang‘ in TH-cam, this is the Chinese interview , but the volunteers added the subtitle ~
👏 exactly my thoughts. You’d expect this type of nosy journalism from gossip news. And it’s funny how they try to make it seem like it’s a serious interview, but all I see is a bunch of immature journalists.
Ok, so, if I could repost this, I would.
That producer lady is quite rude at the end. Jealousy can be seen in her eyes.
People can be ugly on this inside but for her its also coming on her outside.
"I'm just filming the life that I have... Rather, the life that I want."
YAAAS.
in the video its says "or rather" which quite different from what you maybe thinking :P
That's the lins that makes me want o go there
Hola yo soy de chile y siempre veo tus videos
@@SkulosGav ikr
She’s probably being rude , as an interviewer, cause she was expecting a 5 course meal, and a fresh hand made bamboo chair to sit on....
Tbh I was wondering about that too. She sounded pretty sour about not being able to film her through their village. Most likely didn't consider that it's not just Li there and the rest might be uncomfortable with random people.
Watch the end of the video that they didn't include in this video: b23.tv/HAlTI3
The interviewer talks about her experience listening to Li and she was extremely unprofessional about it, making it seem like Li is an odd bamboo-obsessed countryside girl.
Poor mindset, she don't deserve being the interviewer of Ms. Li.
@@Mihae796 I think it's a bit oversensitive if that's what people are so angry about. The interviewer is basically saying that she believe's Li has the skills and knowledge that are shown in her videos: that if Li can talk spontaneously for 10 minutes about different bamboos and their characteristics, then people skeptical about her abilities in traditional crafts are wrong.
Maybe the Chinese translated subtitles make it seem more harsh? As for what was said in English, "Go on about" can feel a bit dismissive, but as English is the interviewer's second language I'd be more likely to believe this wasn't intentional.
If you read the write-up on the channel's website the interviewer says this the following, which I think is pretty balanced given the online questions about the channel's authenticity:
"The poise that Li displays in her well-polished videos belie a playfulness and spontaneity that only comes out when the camera is off.
While we were hanging out on a bridge, Li tried to pluck a lotus flower that was growing an arm’s length away.
When she couldn’t reach it, she got down on all fours before completely falling on her stomach, laughing and joking in Sichuanese as she desperately tried to touch the flower.
And while Li never utters more than a few words in her videos, off camera, she can be loquacious.
While we were waiting to set up for the shoot, she went on for a good five to 10 minutes on the subject of bamboo.
Once the cameras were ready, she composed herself again.
Viewers often ask whether her videos are real. Indeed, her final pieces are heavily edited-even our interview footage came retouched with heavy filters-but after spending time with her, I believe the question might be moot.
While Li’s videos allow her audience to indulge in a fantasy world, many of the techniques she portrays are grounded in real-world knowledge and come from a genuine desire for the pastoral ideal. The only thing she’s sculpted is her on-screen persona"
@@Mihae796 she probably is lol
Wow such a disrespectful ending! Looks like this channel just wanted a piece of her followers and likes.
I so agree
Exactly!
yep
Agreed, the interview wasn't good, rushed and uncared for, but the end was absolutely tasteless, tacky and pointless. But this is precisely what chasing clout looks like.
i believe the ending was the way it was because they didn't get to view her filming. if they had gotten the permission for that, there would be no doubt she is a self starter.
the doubt has always been whether she is the director or not. i don't think anyone doubts she knows rural life, you can see her doing it in the video pretty evidently.
at least that is my suspicion when i first stumbled upon the videos. because if not, it's another one of those "industry plant" kind of threats that attack her channel's authenticity. it does look heavily produced, as if there are _multiple_ cameras. she definitely does not have the time to do all those takes alone. she admits she has one videographer, but then what about editing? where does she have the time lol
She definitely inspires me. And I do feel relaxed when I view her. She has that right.
We didn't need the ending where you patronized Li Ziqi, that was rude.
Li no school, less english, stupid fucck interview in the end！
Did you mean in a way like sponsoring pewdipie?
I also think like you, liziqi is the most special girl youtube.
I don't care even if it is staged and a whole production company is behind this, i only care about the content and the content f**king SLAPS !!!!!
I agree with you!!
The way you said “How she just talked about bamboo” was kinda rude.
the way she calls it "pool of knowledge of the countryside and nature" is dismissive. she has an abyss of knowledge of the traditional culture (and is willing to learn more). She shows the possibility of living in today's urbanite culture.
Definitely not going to click.
There is the other one interview about her , that is better than this. Copy ‘Li Ziqi interview Xinlang‘ in TH-cam, this is the Chinese interview , but the volunteers added the subtitle ~
@@evelee266 Thanks.
This interviewer really unprofessional, sucks
This interview was so disrespectful. Liziqi deserves so much better.
they are all acting for Christ's sakes, the "rude" parts on the interviewer's comments are scripted to make us all feel empathy for Liz and make us love her even more. Jesus Christ this technique is a time-honoured one by the Chinese government in propaganda production
@@Jigger2361 If it was scripted for propaganda then why did they edit it out when faced with backlash?
@@sheshystar9380 I am not aware of any "editing out" what the content was nor why, if true, anything was edited... besides all that, you have to be a moron to think this is real, propaganda or not... or under 30
WHAT A SHAME for her first interview! Disappointing interview
Kaorhys Love This is not the first interview of ziqi, there are several in Chinese by other interviewers, especially by the weibo channel, that‘s a good interview and ziqi even song a beautiful song in it.
Kaorhys Love th-cam.com/video/YvggQUW0g7w/w-d-xo.html this is the other interview, but in Chinese, this one is so good 💕
So many people saying her videos are fake because its not possible to learn do so many things but don't realise that it's just how it is in rural areas. They learn carpentry, cooking, taking care of animals and nature etc from childhood and somehow balance that with school work (i speak from experience). You guys are just so used to having the easy city life where you can order everything to your doorstep that her videos look fake and unrealistic to you, but that is just life to them.
EXACTLY! so many people live privileged lives and dont realise it...
Ending was unnecessary, especially laughing because Liziqi was talking about bamboo. That was very unprofessional. If you have no interest maybe you shouldn't have done the interview.
I’m disliking this. What a disgrace with such disrespectful interviewers. Li Zi Qi is such a hardworking person and doesn’t deserve your nonsense. I wish you the best, Li Zi Qi.
I ONLY enjoyed the parts where Liziqi was talking and being passionate.
of course, the interview was fucking garbage, you can almost feel their jealousy and you hear them sayin shit about her ( she kept talkin about her bamboo..) like it wasnt important to listen to what she talk .... IS THAT FOR REAL... you clearly go waste HER TIME to tell US we dont care about bamboo.... SERIOUSLY
propaganda like this feels like sliding into a warm bath, soothing...sadly
mhm
That shade 😂
@@Jigger2361 Tf?
Her videos are so calming that whenever I’m super stressed I feel immediately calmed and wish that one day I can escape and live such a life in the nature.
Look, I really don’t want to be critical but I gotta say something. This interview just didn’t do justice to Li Ziqi’s image.
If the focus on Li Ziqi, why is the interviewer’s angle better than hers? You see the interviewers full face with a beautiful background, and yet we only see the 45 degree side of Li Ziqi’s.
And even though she’s maintaining eye contact, (which I might add looks lifeless somehow), it seems like she’s not even fully engaged and paying attention. The reactions seemed so forced and unnatural.
And yes you can have notes as a journalist and look at them occasionally, but you have your interviewee’s FULL attention. By lowering your head down that low, the other person is just talking to the top of your head instead of your face.
And that outro in the end, was it really necessary to zoom in on someone’s crotch? Just threw off the whole vibe of the video.
Journalism was week. They didn’t seem serious enough about giving extra care, attention, and respect to their subject.
totally! its just so aggravating!!
I agree
I get the idea the interviewer didn’t quite like or even know her. The body language is so aloof sitting opposite Ziqi. By the way, Li is her family name and it’s quite the norm to call her Ziqi rather than Li. No connection at all
@@jojo111623 on the point of her name, i disagree. its common practice to refer to people by their last names in journalism
Agree!
I still think the interview was just an excuse to steal Li Ziqi videos. Interview was lazily done.
I agree
They just wanna leech some viewers from liqizi
Yepp, that will do ,
But i am defenetely sure that Liziqi woudn't mind it, she had 50 M fans in China and 8 M overseas, more respect to Liziqi,
Lack of sense responsibility for this channel, she had made up on her last sentences,
Precisely...not exactly bowled over by her, just stealing her thunder... cheap shot as usual and these guys will keep repeating the formula. Should change channel name to Gold digger.
lazy is euphemism. it's sheer disrespectful. subtle but disrespectful.
Who cares if she started out by herself or not? It's undeniably clear that she's incredibly talented in so many things. That should be the focus.. Haters are just jealous cause they're stressed af in their big cities. After watching her for like 2 years now I can vouch for this woman with no regrets. She's simply amazing and I'm so grateful for her stunning videos. Calms me down everytime!
Me too, talented for a person with no education....and that can only come from God!!
Yep!!! She is very independent too.
Spot on! Who cares if she has a team behind her or not. Why is it not ok to have a team? Her channel has grown so much. She definitely deserve someone to help her out. All the works She showed, regardless of how talented she is, is just too much for a little girl to handle.
Those are not even things she needs to defend.
SHE DOES NOT ALLOW people to film her WHILE SHE IS FILMING for youtube! that bitch is a fake communist propaganda machine
@@faye_isc wow!!
Liziqi,i like your video. So do many others. Keep on moving. Don't let the negative comment hurts u. They are jealous about your success.....you are a legend in your own field!.... from malaysia with love.....
Chinese language sounds so beautiful, like musical notes blended with air
I’m glad there’s people like you who can appreciate the sound of Chinese languages, especially Mandarin. There’s too many people that are obsessed with one asian culture/language and can’t appreciate any other (webs, koreaboo, etc)
That’s a wonderful way to describe it. The non-romantic languages seem under appreciated for their own beauty. French, Italian, and Spanish get all the attention. I think each language is beautiful in their own way. Languages are fascinating to me. 😊
@@mythrin ... Sadly yes. They are so obsessed that they dont see themselves as toxic. They correct my korean. My moms korean. --.-- They only like some aspects but reject others.
Over Wonce Why can't they put it any way they want to? Who are your to say how another should freely communicate their honest thoughts? Smh
You sound very self-appointed & superior imo. Why?
she does not have the china slang, she speaks more toward the taiwanese intonation .... wait till you hear that mainland slang (especially the heavy ones) you will think twice.
but yes in general mandarin is alright for a language with intonation ... but thai still sounds the best for intonation language.
So you were honored to be let inside her private world only to mock her love for bamboos and be insincere about this whole interview? Way to go.
YES. What pathetic low life they are to do that!!
They mock her because they know they can never reach her level of success! 😂
i like the way you said this
I really wanna cry after seeing the end of this video. These "journalists" are such a disgrace.
Why should people complain about the videos? Just watch them and enjoy...relax Her garden alone brings serenity.
Because they're mocking her, make fun of her love to her bamboo and plants.. you can't find it now because it's been edited out after the backlash.
@@xmb6793 oh really? I didn't find the interview rude at all now, so I'm trying to understand. Makes sense it's been edited
@@amshaden yes, they edited out that part because of the backlash from people.
why are u complaining about that? we all have a right to our opinions lol
You don’t even deserve to be an interviewer let alone, content creator. How rude of you to comment something like that in the end. Ridiculous..
she took out a whole piece of honeycomb without any protection i
Yeah, you just need to rub your hands first by onion oil ( mixed of fry oil and sliced onion) or non alcohol florist fragnance liquid, better take a shower before that I supposed 😝😝
She is professional.
My father used to be bee keeper, he can also do so
Even the bees love her
I never comment for any video before, but I can't help myself not to do so for this video. U got a million viewers because of Li. U should apologize for your impolite interview and comments. U hurt my feeling for not respecting her.
How in the world is one - a Chef, a Gardener, a Seamstress, a Designer, an Editor, a Caretaker, a Carpenter?!! She is absolutely BEYOND BRILLIANT. I am in AWE by her and realize the way she lives is Exactly how we are ALL Suppose to.
Exactly 👍... And also she can play guitar and sing so well... not forgetting she was once DJ as well. This lazy is just amazing.
The ending was so disappointing, the comments about the bamboo and laughing about it too while you are on camera and then having the brains to upload it as well. That blew my mind. How can you guys not even understand that there are millions of people that live everyday life like how li ziqi shows us through her videos. It's one thing to think that ziqi does not live like this in her videos but to actually laugh at the 10 different types of bamboo and the uses for them is just disrespectful to an entire culture and history that dates back to 100s of years. Li ziqi understands the knowledge and history of bamboo that many people on this planet dont. This also includes the both of you. You both are low key trying to say that li ziqi only does these videos for views and $$, at the same time this entire channel only gets views by interviewing people like li ziqi. It's their fans and supporters that make up the views you guys get.
I wish I could see the ending before got edited out
THiS
Agreed i cud see the interviewer fr GOldthread was unprofessional right away. Many will remember that name and not think highly of it. Lets remember togive them a thumbs down. THere are acutally more than 500 species of bamboo in the world. The interviewer prob never set foot outside the city.
Dont understand why Li Ziqi agreed to this cheap interview....
i think she is quite innocent and naive with these foreign asian-face interview teams
Li Ziqi didn't want to be interview with this crazy interviewer but the interviewer just want to share a video with a famous face like Li Ziqi.
Hong Lor Chhong - Why would Li heart an interview she had not wanted to do?
The interviewer is sponsored by South China morning post, which is the most famous paper in Hongkong. It's mainly focus on English speaking audiences. I guess ziqi's team think it's a good channel to broadcast to English audiences. But obviously the reporter didn't treat this interview seriously.
Chinese interview is much much better than this,li talks many about culture, the frist prospect and her life thoughts.THE most important thing is that she sings in that video.
I'm not quite sure what claims the interviewer was trying to verify, the fact that someone helps Li ZiQi with the videos? Does it matter who takes the videos or how it was taken?
@Don Mega I think her only "fault" seems to be that she's a capable, beautiful woman. If she was a man, especially a white one, the reactions would've been overwhelming praise rather than extreme jealousy.
I've known people who live her kind of lifestyle and they manage it very well because they've been taught it since young, as she has, so her achievements are not unbelievable to me. I don't wonder irrelevant questions like why something can be done when people in countries that don't affect me haven't done so. She's not responsible for North Koreans or what they think and do. She's only wanting to share with others how they can have a self-sufficient, independent lifestyle too that's at one with the land and animals. The reporter herself tries to show, at the end, that self-sufficiency is possible since others have done it too. It just didn't seem genuine because her approach throughout the interview has been very weird.
I've only seen a bit of LZD's vids, but from what I gather from this vid itself the interviewer finally got a rare chance to enter into LZD's privacy and get some insight into her process. To have used this invitation to cast doubt on her work, doubts that had no basis on sense and logic whatsoever, showed no respect and zero professionalism. If I got invited into a rare backstage interview with Pixar studios for one of their films I don't go pushing irrelevant questions about whether they outsource their work or not in a way to try to downplay their part in the production. At the end of the day, Pixar oversees quality control just as LZD is the boss and decides how things are done. If she feels she can't handle doing the work and physically holding onto the camera, why would that diminish what she's demonstrating? Was the interviewer trying to show that LZD's claims are possibly false? Instead, she only managed to show how petty she herself is. You shouldn't talk poison about a host who's offering you tea and pretend that you're not.
At any rate, if people were really unsure of whether her claims work just go ahead and try any one of her suggestions. Or is everyone waiting for North Korea to try it first?
And what everyone else says about soft hands is nonsense. Has anyone personally shaken her hands? Technology has not gotten to the point where one can tell the texture of things conclusively via the screen. This rubbish talk just reeks of jealousy.
Pity, I don't live there. Otherwise I would've begged for a workshop. If I could learn at least one of her skills I would be happy. She's an absolute inspiration and treasure. I hope more girls will grow up to be like her.
@@justcruisina1ong I think many people including the interviewer just don't like the fact, she is selling an unattainable dream. The persona she created on the internet makes it look, like you can actually run around forest collecting mushrooms, spend hours making dresses and stuff, smell flowers and cook delicious feasts for half a day and live like that care free and it is simply disingenuous. Your anecdotes aside, no matter where you live you can't just have a self-sustainable farm and live off of it, especially as diverse as she has. You have to work to pay taxes/lease/social, and doing that just by farming alone is a full time, difficult labor. It is especially tough in China. Farmers don't own the land there, they lease it from collectives. She can pull it off now, because she worked hard in the city before, got popular on youtube and now the internet sustains her. The amount of people in the comment section talking about how this is the life they want proves the illusion. That type of life is a fiction. You need another source of income, to be this jolly on a farm. The whole premise just doesn't feel honest.
@pumaGCB What anecdotes?
I haven't seen her try to sell any merchandise or suggest that her methods would further a commercial farming empire. She's just showing vids of her life, the same as lots of other people on TH-cam. People can take it however they want, it doesn't change the fact that her life is like that. If they don't like it, unsubscribe or try some of her stuff to try and debunk her. "Don't knock it till you've tried it."
If the interviewer didn't believe in her work she shouldn't have interviewed her. Knowing that LZD is a private person and then going into her private space like that with less than good intentions itself is disingenuous. It is also highly unprofessional.
As I said, it's not impossible to live self sustainably like her. Even Jason Scott Lee is off the grid and lives like that to a large extent. At no point did I gather that this was an easy carefree life. There was a lot of manual labour in what LZD had to accomplish. Even with JSL's life there was a lot of manual labour involved in how he maintains his estates but many people around the world have proven that you don't need a lot of money to be able to live a good life that's close to the land and good for the soul.
As for unattainable, I don't believe it is. I just believe the cityfied generations have lost the knowledge. If we were to live like her we'd need a lot of training. She was lucky she learnt off her grandparents. It is possible but it'd involve a lot of hard work and commitment for us which is why it would be great if she ran workshops for city slickers (moot point in these covid-19 times of no travel). But yeah, for us to make that leap would be uber hard work but the first step is to believe and then be open to it.
@@pumaGCB Many of us wont even enter China let alone living that life. When was the last time you use your fone? Seriously, her videos are stress reduce effective, that why I watch them.
@@pumaGCB are you familiar with the concept of fantasy? Her videos promote a fantasy, just like those european people living in luxurious castles...no one truly believes one can actually live of self sustained farming, but she makes a fantasy out of the hardwork and poverty to show people that YES all the food you ingest comes from the fields and YES those people working on the field are just as valid as you. I guess you don't have any hardships in your life so come here and call fake a person that wants to put a little beauty to the world.
This is how we should be. Dont try to chase the first place, dont try to chase to get awards or you want people to call you the TOP, the BEST.. BUT use what you've learnt, what you've gained in your life. Liziqi is a girl that we have to put her in our role model list. She's legend.
@뿡빵뽕방구쟁이 No she'
s not
“She knows about bamboo” “talks about ten minutes nonstop”. That’s super rude, gurl
So rude!!

Didn’t you hear what she said on the latter part?! (MyGod) To quote “this is like super interesting”!!! Go over the video again before you discredit someone!!!
I don't like that girl and even she laughing at the end, it make me feel not respect at all. She didn't understand Liziqi
Y’all are reaching and taking what she was saying out of context, literally the next sentence she says she believes li ziqi is very knowledgeable
@@tacostotherescue126 yup
You guys can find the full version of this video on Facebook. The interviewer was super salty and rude at the end. It’s just disgusting
I am sorry but ehatever you might have felt about the 'bamboo part' atlast should have been kept to yourself. You clearly have no whatsoever appreciation at all. She shoulf havr done the interview with some other channel or maybe just did a Q&A in her own channel.
The bamboo part hurts me😅 i love Li and her work i even watch one of her video over and over again that she clearify about someone stole her contents, just to hear her voice, im glad to see the interview but the last part actually let me down.🙂
She could touch my dreams, infact all of our dreams. In our subconscious mind we want to live a life like her. Whatever she is , I love her unconditionally 💕

Asian Boss ftw
Yeah, I truly wish Asian boss will one day interview her
do what? i didn't see anything wrong..
You guys just trashed her at the end. For what???? Like then “we couldn’t verify” who caressssss
Venus Wu, you look down on other woman's "pool of knowledge" by that sarcastic and condescending tone and that too-obvious-look-it-could-be-a-meme. The script about not being able to verify the claims right after Ziqi saying she considers those online attacks as validation to her works is really well chosen by you to subtly indicate that she's a fake because she didn't let you film her work process. And then you undermine her efforts to less than the bare minimum by lazily commenting, she picked up her camera and boom she became successful. Your production is filled with underlying sarcasm. You pinning her ❤ comment means nothing because Li Ziqi probably prefers spreading love. People can and have seen through your sarcasm. If you have more sense than your lacklustre originality, apologise officially.
i from indonesian i love liziqi.
Who is she, she is a multi task skills, she can turn impossible things into possible.

The crazy interviewer just want to be in front of the camera with a famous face like Li.
People around the world often view China and the Chinese people negatively especially around these times of covid. I came across Ly's videos when browsing TH-cam. My work in England is hard and a dirty job, I'm in my 50s also it's very tiring on my body. When I saw the amount of work Ly does around the home manually by herself I was in deep admiration of her. Such beauty and charm and zest, sincerity to her family, lifestyle and nature I began to think she is amazing person. I physically felt my heart opening and calming my body, I began to feel tears in my eyes. I had to stop, it is difficult to watch videos of her doing the most wonderful things in the garden and with crafts. She is so talented in her creativity, and shows so much love in her work for many to see but for herself as a person. i see her soul was troubled in her spirit but i see she is filling her life and LIVING now. It is rare that people find a feeling that they are alive. I have had so far only 3 and a half years in 50. Watching Ly's videos i recognise humanity again. She is a beautiful human being and is an ambassador of China and is one of the greatest people I've ever seen on the planet so far. I would spend all the money I had to visit her for one day. It would be one of the greatest honours.
I hope one day she would invite me to visit and make a video and spend a day or to with her family..
There is no way on earth this was written by a 50 year old manual worker from the UK lol
This was so rude and unnecessary. You’re not good people.
The end of this video when they sat together and talked about the interview is a total shame.
I can't find one comment that says anything otherwise than this.
reaLy true
It seemed like the interviewer was uninterested and just wanted it to be over. I think they just wanted to ride Li Zi Qi's fame.
She is great ... 💕
I'm not here often to reply and talk with you, add me on Google Hangout, Jonathanrobson497@gamil.com
I'll keep in touch over there.
Who could hate this girl? I've been subbed a long time to her and shes amazing and wholesome. I cant read or understand the language but I'm still very drawn to and intrigued by her and watch all her content.
꤂ꤌꤙꤕꤔꤔꤌ
YES! I love her videos- all I can do is watch, she is so interesting , makes many beautiful things & foods. She is outstanding.
Li Ziqi please don't let the negative comments bother you. Those people wish they could do what you do. As one of your American subscribers, don't stop. I bartend and when I go home your videos are the first I watch, they really do help with stress relief. And there is the added benefit of learning my grandfather's culture. Xchi xchi
True, whenever I come from office to home, then I just watch one of Lizqi's video as well. Those videos are magic.
The reporter at the end was so damn rude
Just watched every video of her. She's a living legend. 🌶🥢❤️
1. You couldn't observe because she only shoots 3 times a month and it takes a long time for her to plan and prepare, why should she shoot something she didnt plan just for you ? Entitled much? LOL If you did some research , you'd know that she is extremely detail oriented, meticulous and does not rush things. 2. " Couldn't verify" LOL that kind of mentality is exactly why she does not let in reporters. She is an artist , she does not have to prove anything to anyone. So disgraceful and insensitive. It would have been better if you had included her bamboo speech because that would have been enlightening, instead we get ripped pants and more nonsense. I hope your words don't reach her , she probably wont ever give an interview again if it does. Thanks for the “exclusive interview” bah!
I couldn't have said it better
Thank you for putting my thoughts to words
TyrranicalT-Rad Whoa, calm down mate. Calling someone a “fraud” without any evidence is just slander. Firstly, I am from a village as well, although now I live in a city. When we were growing up we had to do all sorts of chores , it was just our way of life. Lizi grew up in a village, its actually not a big deal to have the skills she has and she has mentioned that as well. Yes , she probably stages some things for filming but what’s so wrong in that? Other youtubers also stage things for views and get their money. People enjoy the videos she makes for various reasons, some people find it peaceful and refreshing, for me , it reminds me of my own roots. It’s something good, probably lessens anxiety for a lot of people . Nothing harmful in her content and some people even get inspired to learn and do things.She wasn’t a millionaire before ,but probably is now , It’s her money and how she spends it is entirely her choice. Who are you or anyone to tell her how she “should” live? Oh btw I have lived in china as well, and I come from a poor village with bleak economic prospects, I know the hardships of living in villages but its all about perspective, villages have their own charm and simplicity. Sometimes I find it more peaceful than living in one of the most developed and affluent cities in the world. Anyway, in this new techno age, everyone should be glad for content such as hers, whether you think its staged or not 🤷🏻♀️ simply looking at her harvestingfood and seeing how it gets processed would make people think twice before wasting food.
@@deelaimayum4730 yes I totally agree with you. My parents grew up on a village and when I was young they always told me how tough life was. To this day I never waste food at all.
"instead we get ripped pants and more nonsense." Yup.
Some terrible reporters. The same attitude with the jealous lazy skeptics who will never understand or accomplish anything in life on Liziqi's level. They lack passion and dedication, these things only come from the heart and actual hard work, not lazy wishful thinking and entitlement.
Exactly
Agree
I almost feel like this whole thing was "click bite". Li Ziqi is an artist. The interview seemed to be conduced by the very kids Li Ziqi was describing who don't know where food even comes from. Perhaps these interviewers don't know where art comes from and don't care. If Li Ziqi ever gives another interview I hope it is with a more intelligent, group of professionals. I love what Li Ziqi is doing. Too bad they had a beautiful jewel of humanity in front of them and could or would not see it...
