In the blink of an eye, it has been more than half a month since actress Zhou Haimei passed away. During this period, there were many speculations and false rumors on the Internet about the cause of Zhou Haimei's death, funeral ceremony and inheritance distribution.
For Zhou Haimei’s family who lost their loved ones, the noisy rumors are undoubtedly a huge harm to them.
In order to give an explanation to the fans and friends who have supported and loved Zhou Haimei for so many years, and to stop the rumors as soon as possible, on December 27, Zhou Haimei’s sister commissioned the media to issue a public statement.
01 About the cause of death
Before the news of Zhou Haimei's death was announced to the public, there were rumors that Zhou Haimei had passed away. It was even revealed that her unfortunate death was caused by lupus erythematosus, which she had been suffering from for many years.
On December 12, the death announcement released by Zhou Haimei's studio did not mention the precise cause of his death, which triggered wider speculation among netizens. Various rumors emerge in endlessly. In order to gain traffic, the gossip media does not hesitate to consume the dead. This is a serious disrespect for the deceased.
While everyone was still in grief and regret, the electronic medical records suspected of being rescued by Zhou Haimei in the hospital were exposed again. This electronic medical record, which records Zhou Haimei's time of medical treatment, symptoms during treatment and many other personal private information, went viral on the Internet just a few hours after the news of Zhou Haimei's death was announced. Netizens went crazy and fans were furious.
This is not just gossip, but to earn traffic. After media reports and the intervention of law enforcement agencies, the matter came to an end until the two persons involved were caught and handed over for processing.
However, rumors on the Internet are constantly changing. On December 27, Zhou Haimei’s sister, Ms. Zhou Haiying, made a statement on issues such as the cause of Ms. Zhou Haimei’s death, inheritance distribution, and arrangements for the whereabouts of pets.
In the statement, Ms. Zhou said that according to the surveillance video at home and the identification of the forensic department, Zhou Haimei died suddenly due to a sudden heart attack. She was calm and peaceful when she left, without pain.
Lupus erythematosus, the most widely rumored disease on the Internet, has never been acknowledged by Zhou Haimei. She once publicly explained that the reason for her repeated fainting was just low platelets and anemia.
Sister Zhou Haimei also hopes that everyone will stop discussing and speculating on the cause of her sister's death and give the deceased more respect.
They will also take Zhou Haimei’s ashes back to Hong Kong and bury them in a suitable cemetery.
02 Regarding inheritance
In addition to the cause of death, netizens are also very concerned about the distribution of Zhou Haimei's inheritance.
As we all know, Zhou Haimei has been alone for so many years since her divorce from actor Lu Liangwei, and there has never been any scandal. After Zhou Haimei, who liked quietness, quit the screen, she settled alone in Beijing.
passed away suddenly and had no spouse or descendants during her lifetime. There is no doubt that the inheritance will be inherited by her mother.
Zhou Haimei ranks second in the family. She has an elder sister and two younger brothers. Her mother is still alive. Zhou Haimei had a very harmonious relationship with her mother, siblings, and her siblings were responsible for handling her posthumous affairs after her death.
Zhou Haiying said that according to legal provisions, Zhou Haimei’s inheritance was inherited by her mother, and they followed the legal provisions.
Zhou Haimei’s mother will continue to carry out the public welfare matters that Zhou Haimei was enthusiastic about during her lifetime. However, they will not set up any Zhou Haimei charity association, nor will they entrust any organization or individual. They hope that netizens will not be deceived.
03 About pet arrangement
Zhou Haimei liked golden retrievers very much during her lifetime. She had many golden retrievers at home that kept her company for many years, and they had a deep relationship with her.
Zhou Haimei’s family knows that she is worried about pet cats and dogs, but her family has always settled in Hong Kong. It is unrealistic and not allowed to bring these animals to Hong Kong for care.
So, Zhou Haimei’s family found some of Zhou Haimei’s good friends in Beijing who liked pets and asked them to adopt and take care of them. These friends were also very happy to take them in, so it was considered the best arrangement for the pets.
The deepest impression Zhou Haimei has left on everyone is her bright smile. She only brings joy to everyone. Now that she has left this world, whether it is out of nostalgia or reluctance, she should no longer disturb her with any excuse. Family, this is the way to love Zhou Haimei.
People cannot be resurrected. I hope that Zhou Haimei’s family can express their condolences and accept the change. I also hope that the gossip media will stop spreading rumors and that Sister Haimei will be well on her way.
