When I heard the news of the death of dancer Zhou Jie, I was shocked.
By all accounts, she is only 59 years old this year.
However, this morning (October 3, 2021), we learned from Hu Xuehua, a director who has directed films such as "Lanling King", that Zhou Jie, a famous dancer and known as the "Beauty God of the East", died of illness, and since then, it is difficult for us to appreciate her light and beautiful dance.
Zhou Jie is an actor I admire very much, from the first sight of her in the movie "Hanging Curtains and Listening to Politics", it is difficult for me to forget her beautiful face and moving performance.

In 1991, Zhou Jie was 30 years old. At this time, she has added feminine charm to her body, more like a gorgeous red rose.
In 1992, almost everyone who met Zhou Jie was attracted by the unique charm she exuded.
Pictured above is Zhou Jie in 1992.
In 1992, Zhou Jie starred in the TV series "Tang Ming Huang" directed by Chen Jialin. In the same year, he also starred in the role of Yang Guifei in the movie "Yang Guifei" directed by Chen Jialin. And it is this role that makes Zhou Jie become popular again and become a first-line star. Many viewers, after watching the movie "Yang Guifei", think that she is the "most beautiful Yang Guifei".
The picture above shows Zhou Jie's appearance when she starred in "Yang Guifei".
Clear and bright eyes, curved willow eyebrows, fair skin permeated with red pink, red lips like rose petals delicate and dripping. This is the real beauty.
The picture above is Yang Guifei, played by Zhou Jie, who is beautiful and vulgar.
The shape in the picture above is too classic.
I think that the main reason why Zhou Jie can interpret Yang Yuhuan so vividly and vividly is that she has a bright appearance, and second, she has excellent dance skills, in order to dance the "Neon Dress Feather Dance" in the film.

In 2004, Zhou Jie starred in several TV series in succession, such as "The World is Too Peaceful", "Baolian Lantern", "My Lord's Ups and Downs" and so on. Almost all of them are ancient characters. In fact, her costume style is indeed less than that of others.
In 2012, 51-year-old Zhou Jie launched the Haipai dance drama "Zhou Xuan", which was liked by the majority of audiences. The picture above shows Zhou Jie in this period. At that time, she still looked very healthy and bright.
We were expecting her to appear in film and television dramas again, or to launch new dance drama works. However, who would have thought that today, a few years later, we would get the news of her sudden death.
It is understood that when Zhou Jie was 24 years old, she fell into a vigorous love, and then the two married. But the marriage didn't last long and ended in divorce. Since then, Zhou Jie has remained single.
Zhou Jie, all her life is born for dance. Even the roles played in film and television dramas are almost all related to dance. How did such an artist who loves dance leave this world so early? It is understood that in fact, as early as 4 years ago, she was already plagued by diseases and her physical condition was very bad. But at the time, everyone thought that with her current medical conditions, she would be able to recover her health and return to the stage. Unexpectedly, this is just one of our wishes.
Speaking of Zhou Jie, one of the few beauties in the world, the deepest impression she left in everyone's mind may be the Concubine Li in "Burning the Yuanmingyuan", perhaps the Yang Guifei in "Yang Guifei", or the millennium fox immortal in "Baolian Lantern". But no matter which one it is, it is almost the embodiment of beauty. And now, this oriental beauty god has gone to the west of the crane, how can it not be lamented? Here, let us sincerely wish her: all the way to the best.
