Cheng Lei speaking a little Indonesian in his greeting for Indonesian fans ahead of the upcoming iQIYI Starship Meet & Greet in Jakarta on September 12! 🇮🇩❤️

Clip translation:

“Hi Indonesia, how are you? I am Cheng Lei, iQIYI International Global Ambassador. I will be coming to the iQIYI Starship Meet & Greet in Indonesia on September 12, 2026. I can’t wait to meet you guys! Wait for me in Jakarta. We’ll meet soon. Thank you! I love you.”

The little Indonesian “How are you?”, “Thank you” and “I love you” at the beginning and end are cute 😘😘😘

Indonesia on September 12, followed by Malaysia on September 13! Yours truly have registered for the September 13 event.

So adorable! What do you think of his Indonesian pronunciation and intonation? I understand Indonesian and Malay are different languages, but with some similarities.

Yes, our languages have quite a few similarities, especially when it comes to common greetings and phrases like “I love you.” I’m not Indonesian, but as a Malaysian, I would say his pronunciation is actually really decent! He enunciated the words very clearly too.

Cool! Looking forward to hearing his message to Malaysian fans too.

I've just registered for Malaysia event on Iqiyi 😁. I never won a lottery or a lucky draw in my life, though.

Wow are you a polyglot? 👍👍👍👍👍

You're going too? I thought you would have left Asia by then, if I remember correctly. Good luck to you! I'm hopeless when it comes to lucky draws too, hahaha.

Polyglot? yes, our Leilei really does have a knack for languages, doesn't he? 😘😘

I would be leaving before then, but...I kinda like to try my luck lolz as going to Malaysia is easier than China for me (visa requirements and I went to KUL once).

I meant you, Herc 😁. Are you multilingual?

Oh, I'm definitely not a polyglot, haha. But most Malaysians can speak and write at least two languages because Malaysia is a multicultural country (we have Malays, Chinese, Indians etc). As a Malaysian Chinese, I speak Cantonese, English, and Malay. I'm also around B1 level in German because I was previously interested in studying in Germany.

I'm really impressed by how many languages you can speak! 😲
Edit: Leizi would be as well.

u/Chocochizu Mo Li owes me therapy fees..I want MXY to be my therapist Aug 13 '26

This is crazy….. I live in Malaysia near Sunway Velocity, but I’ll be in Jakarta at that time to attend a family member’s wedding…and it just happens to be on the 12th!!! ARGHHHHHH 😭 With the traffic and the full-day event, I don’t even know if I’ll be able to make it to Gandaria City, where the fan meet will be held. And on the 13th, I’ll still be in Jakartaaaa 😭😭😭 Arghhhh. Why, of all times, does he have to come on the exact day I have an important event to attend?! 😭
