Zhou Haimei passed away, who has never regretted it?
On December 11, 2023, Zhou Haimei, who was named the "Film and Television Matchmaker", passed away in a villa in Beijing at the age of 57.
Every time I think of Zhou Haimei, who was known as the "Jade Girl of Xiangjiang" in the past, people will always be full of emotion. Her life is like a big drama of tossing and turning, joys and sorrows, always revolving around two core topics: career and relationship.
In terms of career, Zhou Haimei's road to stardom can be called smooth sailing. In 1984, at the age of 18, she participated in the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant, although she finally ranked fifth, but she was selected by the T VB TV City in its prime, and became a wireless actress.
Later, Zhou Haimei handed over beautiful answers in many classic TV series, especially the 1983 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and the 1994 version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", which respectively brilliantly interpreted "Huang Rong" and "Zhou Zhiruo", two well-known martial arts beauties.
It can be said that it is with these two dramas that Zhou Haimei completely fixed the beautiful image of "Xiangjiang Jade Girl" and became a lingering memory in the hearts of an entire generation.
The emotional bottom is at the bottom, and the heart is traumatized again
However, in terms of feelings, Zhou Haimei's life trajectory is far from being so smooth. The ups and downs and helplessness of the love scene seem to have become a lingering nightmare in her life.
In 1990, Zhou Haimei married the popular student Lu Liangwei. The two are a "model couple" in the rolling red dust. It's a pity that this marriage, which was envied by countless fans, only lasted for 3 years, and then parted ways in 1993.
After that, Zhou Haimei had a relationship with a Beijing architect for many years, and the two were engaged for a time. But this relationship ended in the end, and each other has been away from home ever since.
In the new century, fate has dealt an increasingly severe blow to Zhou Haimei. In 1999, doctors examined her and found that she had a rare disease called "idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura" and advised her that it was best not to have children.
This bad news undoubtedly made Zhou Haimei's life worse. At this stage, she had a wealthy businessman boyfriend, and the two had been in love for many years, but after learning that Zhou Haimei might not be able to have children, the boyfriend still ruthlessly left her.
After that, Zhou Haimei bought a mansion worth hundreds of millions of dollars in Beijing and began to live a relatively independent and lonely life. She is committed to raising dogs, planting flowers and plants, and devoting all her energy to these things, trying to find solace in life.
It is often said that being alone is the most painful. But in retrospect, perhaps for Zhou Haimei, the biggest pain is not loneliness, but that she can't get what she wants most in her life - a happy family.
No one took care of him before he died, and no one said goodbye to him when he died
In this way, Zhou Haimei spent the last 20 years of her life alone in Beijing. Until December 11, 2023, this day that was supposed to be a festive time for family reunion has ruthlessly become the last moment of her life.
When the news came out, many people were shocked to learn that this once well-known film and television star had passed away for a long time. What's even more embarrassing is that Zhou Haimei, who lived alone in Beijing at the time, had no one to take care of her, and even spent her last days alone before her death.
After hearing the news, many friends and fans in the circle expressed regret. Some people lamented that "it's a pity that white-haired people send black-haired people". Some people also grieved that "she has suffered too much for so many years, and in the end she has not waited for happiness".
Hearing the news of her daughter's death, the one who was hit hard was of course Zhou Haimei's mother, Mrs. Zhao. The 83-year-old was overwhelmed with grief and could not accept the sad news.
"Ah, Haimei is dead, no way! She's only 57 years old, how could she suddenly be—" Mrs. Zhao couldn't believe her ears.
It turns out that although the mother and daughter have rarely seen each other in recent years, Mrs. Zhao has always been concerned about the pampered palm Ming Zhuhaimei. No one thought that she would die silently like this.
"We are the descendants of the Manchu noble family, why did we end up in this field..."Mrs. Zhao choked up and cried, and her words were incoherent. Although the "noble family" in her mouth no longer exists, the family honor of being loyal and good still seems to support her self-esteem.
With her daughter gone, Mrs. Zhao seemed to be ten years old in an instant. She sadly recalled that her daughter had been talented and outstanding in appearance since she was a child, and she was discovered into the film and television industry in the ardent expectations of her parents, and became an instant hit... didn't expect her daughter's life to be so bumpy.
"When she first debuted, my father told me that our family's Zhenzhen finally got ahead... It's a pity that under Daddy's Nine Springs, I can't see Zhenzhen's last miserable end. Mrs. Zhao spoke earnestly and sadly.
It is not difficult to hear from Mrs. Zhao's words that although the mother and daughter have long been separated, she has always loved her daughter. And now that her daughter has died, in addition to endless sadness, she also has a deep sense of self-blame and helplessness.
As Mrs. Zhao said, Zhou Haimei's life as a "pearl in the palm of your hand" is too bumpy and helpless. She stands out in her career, but her love life and personal circumstances have been repeatedly frustrated, and she has to spend the rest of her life alone.
Who owns the property of more than 100 million yuan? The issue of inheritance has become a mystery
In addition to the grief of her loved ones, what attracted the most attention from the outside world after Zhou Haimei's death was who would inherit her huge inheritance of nearly HK$1 billion. It is reported that Zhou Haimei, who has no children and no daughters, scattered most of her property to charity before her death, but still left a considerable amount of savings and real estate. As is customary, it is highly likely that these inheritances will be inherited by her only surviving mother, Mrs. Zhao, and her younger brother, 83.
However, a person familiar with the matter revealed that Zhou Haimei never seemed to have made a clear statement on the issue of testamentary inheritance before her death, so the ownership of her huge estate has always been a mystery.
According to common sense, the money should naturally go to her mother. But considering Mrs. Zhao's advanced age, will she choose to pass on part of the inheritance to her son?" An industry insider analyzed. In addition, there are also suspicions that Zhou Haimei may have made other arrangements to donate part of her legacy to charity before her death.
"She has always been low-key in charity, maybe she has already made arrangements in private?" Some people speculate so. However, no matter who the inheritance ends up owning, I believe that for Zhou Haimei, she only hopes that this money can bring some warmth to her cherished relatives and friends. After all, she had been lonely all her life, and if she could bring some comfort to others after she died, her Heavenly Spirit Said would also be gratified.
How many ups and downs there are in life, in the end it is still a wisp of green
Time flies, time flies. Counting those film and television stars who have performed on the same stage with Zhou Haimei, many people have now passed away. Some faded in fame and obscurity; Some have long since retired from the entertainment industry and lived a peaceful life; Others, like Zhou Haimei, died young, forever silent in this troubled world.
Looking back, Zhou Haimei's life seems to be a microcosm of this flashy entertainment industry, but under the bright star halo, there are countless ups and downs and hardships.
Now, Zhou Haimei has passed away, leaving only the question of who will inherit the inheritance of more than 100 million yuan left by her, which has become a new mystery. It stands to reason that this money should naturally go all to his mother, Mrs. Zhao. But given her advanced age, will she pass on some of her inheritance to her son, or will she choose to donate it to charity?
