When it comes to Zhou Haimei, the first thing that comes to people's minds is Zhou Zhiruo played by her in the 1994 version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer". It is reported that Jin Yong likes the role of "Zhou Zhiruo" very much, and even wanted to rewrite the ending for her and let her be with Zhang Wuji.
Chow Haimei was born on December 6, 1966 in Hong Kong, China. In 1985, she participated in the Miss Hong Kong contest, and although she did not enter the forefront in the end, this experience sparked her interest in the entertainment industry. Subsequently, she entered the TVB Artist Training Course in Hong Kong and became an artist of TVB.
In the early days of her debut, Zhou Haimei's career was very smooth. Not only have many TV series invited her to star, but the actors she has worked with are all well-known figures in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, such as Huang Rihua, Liming, etc. She once starred in the TV series "Intolerable", which created a ratings miracle, the star-studded movie "Truant Weilong 3", and also starred in the MV version of Jacky Cheung's famous song "Kiss Goodbye".
In the early 90s of the 20th century, Zhou Haimei was named "the most popular actress in Hong Kong" for three consecutive years. Her vibrant eyes and long thick black hair became the representative of the "dream girl" of that era.
In the 1994 Taiwan TV production of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Ma Jingtao played Zhang Wuji and Ye Tong played Zhao Min, but the impression of these two characters on the audience was far less profound than that of Zhou Zhiruo played by Zhou Haimei.
Zhou Zhiruo, one of the most complex female characters in Jin Yong's pen, shows from the gentle and gentle in the early stage, to the madness and cruelty in the later stage, and then to the extremely tragic ending. This is very demanding on external performance and psychological speculation.
In 1998, Zhou Haimei was diagnosed with lupus erythematosus, after which she gradually retired from the entertainment industry, and successively starred in some mainland and Hong Kong works. In 2014, Zhou Haimei starred in the hit mainland TV series "The Legend of Wu Meiniang", playing Yang Shufei in the play, showing her ability to accurately shape the role.
In 2018, the new "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" was remade again, and Zhou Haimei was invited again, but after 24 years, her role this time was not Zhou Zhiruo, but the extermination master. Many netizens joked on social media, "When I grow up, I will be your ......"
The rumors of Zhou Haimei's death have caused many people to worry and concern. Her fans hope that she can live a good and healthy life and continue to show her talent in TV and movies. As a classic figure in the entertainment industry, her starring works will always remain in our memory.
