The death of "Chivalrous Lady" Zheng Peipei was announced on July 19. Her family said that Zheng Peipei wanted to keep a low profile during her lifetime, so she never disclosed her illness. Zheng Peipei died on July 17 in the San Francisco Bay Area in the United States. The cause of death was a rare disease.
The American magazine "variety" reported that Zheng Peipei was diagnosed with neurodegenerative atypical Parkinson's syndrome in 2019, informally known as corticobasal degeneration (CBD), which is a rare disease similar to Parkinson's. There is almost no cure. Patients will gradually lose their ability to move and speak. It usually takes 8 years from onset to death.
It is reported that Zheng Peipei was indifferent to fame and fortune and signed multiple organ donation agreements during her lifetime. In 2017, she signed a relevant agreement with the University of Hong Kong. After her death in the United States, she decided to donate her brain in order to overcome medical difficulties.
’s daughter said that Zheng Peipei was approachable, kind and generous, and eager to help others. She called on everyone not to give flowers, but to donate the money spent on flowers to charities.
According to her wishes, Zheng Peipei's brain will be donated to the Mayo Clinic in the United States. She also calls on everyone to donate to BSN (a non-profit charitable organization) to help achieve breakthroughs in "medical problems" in the future.
Zheng Peipei’s children mentioned two institutions in the article, one is BSN and the other is Mayo Clinic (mayo clinic).
bsn is a non-profit charitable organization that focuses on combating atypical Parkinson's disease and providing help to patients.
The Mayo Clinic is the number one hospital in the world (in the United States), also known as Miaoyou Medical International. It is also the world's largest medical institution, with annual revenue of US$15.7 billion, and is the most expensive hospital in the United States.
It is reported that Zheng Peipei dated Yue Hua in her early years, but was later robbed of her love by her best friend. After seeing through the warmth and coldness of human relationships, she married Taiwanese businessman Yuan Wentong in 1970, and then moved to the United States. At that time, she wrote to Yue Hua to confide in her marriage life. The bitterness of the story was published in the newspaper by her best friend, which caused a rift in her marriage with Yuan Wentong, and they eventually divorced in 1987.
Zheng Peipei wanted to be strong in her life. She chose to leave home and raise three daughters and one son by herself. After her divorce, she returned to China to work. She became popular as the guest star "Mrs. Hua" in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".
Zheng Peipei is also very famous internationally. Dozens of media, including the BBC, Daily Mail, People, and the New York Times, reported her death and praised her as a martial arts pioneer and a true hero.
Cheng Peipei's most famous work abroad is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Ang Lee. The film earned US$100 million at the box office in the United States and was the first foreign language film in the United States to exceed 100 million US dollars.
In addition, Zheng Peipei guest-starred as the "Matchmaker" in the Disney movie "Mulan", which also left a deep impression on foreign audiences.
Currently, the details of Zheng Peipei’s funeral have not been announced. Liu Tao and she were friends for many years. Her IP address shows that she is in the United States. She should have flown to the United States a few days ago to say goodbye. I wish Teacher Zheng Peipei a good life.
