Li Lili
Li Lili (Qian Zhenzhen) , also known as Pei Yanling , is a famous Chinese actor and singer. His father, Qian Zhuangfei, was a famous CCP spy. Due to his busy work, Qian Zhuangfei encouraged Li Lili to study singing and dancing at the Chinese Song and Dance Troupe in 1927. She had Li Jinhui as her godfather and changed her name to Li Lili. Soon she became popular because of her beauty and dancing skills. During the Anti-Japanese War, she successively shot a series of anti-Japanese films for China Film Studio and Hong Kong Dadi Film Company. In 1946, she went to study at Columbia University and other schools in the United States, returning to China the following year. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li worked as an actor at the Beijing Film Studio. In 1955, Li entered the Beijing Film Academy's performance specialization class, and stayed on to teach after graduation.
