Liu was born in Lai'an County, Anhui province. He joined the People's Liberation Army in 1970, and began work as a clerk. He rose through the ranks serving in mostly political roles, such as political liaison, political instructor, and did not have any known combat experience. In December 2003, Liu became the head of the political department of the 27th Group Army. In December 2006, he was promoted to Political Commissar of the Beijing Garrison. In 2008, he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general. In December 2009, he was named Political Commissar of the Beijing Military Region. In July 2013 he was promoted to general, the highest non-wartime rank in the PLA.[1] In 2016, he was made the inaugural Political Commissar of People's Liberation Army Strategic Support Force. In 2017, he left his post as political commissar.[citation needed]

Liu was a delegate to the 17th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, and was a member of the 18th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.[1]

In 2019, Fulian was demoted for bribery.[citation needed]
