reported on November 1 According to Taiwanese media sources, director Zhang Yi died of illness on November 1 today, at the age of 69.
Zhang Yi won the Golden Horse Award and Best Director at the Asia Pacific Film Festival in 1985 with "I Lived Like This". In 1987, he co-founded Liuli Gongfang with his wife, Yang Huishan, the Queen of the Golden Horse.
Unfortunately for the past two years, he has been plagued by many innate immune function and kidney problems. According to Yang Huishan, he was lying on a hospital bed with tubes and injections all over his body. “There is no place for injections in his arms. High fever, coughing up blood, various symptoms that cannot be counted..." Even if Zhang Yi's hand is swollen and can no longer hold a pen, he still cares about the company. Yang Huishan wrote with a heartache: "My heart is cut like a knife. I pray that the Bodhisattva can give me a little bit of pain..." She also kept saying in the ears of her beloved, "You are all my world, even if you are in a wheelchair or lying down. On the bed, as long as you don’t think that is the so-called bad quality of life, as long as you are willing to live, I will take care of you happily. By your side, I will happily spend the rest of the day with you..." Zhang Yi was infected by a blood transfusion after a heart operation, and the rescue was ineffective for many days in the intensive care unit. Now he tells others in a cool manner, which makes all walks of life very regretful.
Liuli Gongfang issued a statement today, confirming that Zhang Yi passed away this morning. His wife Yang Huishan and daughter Zhang Yuan were accompanied. Follow-up related matters are being arranged.
