Having just celebrated her 57th birthday on December 6th, Zhou Haimei shocked fans with the news of her death due to an incurable disease. For many years, Zhou Haimei kept her illness a secret. However, close friends of the actress confirmed that she suffered from lupus erythematosus.
As a former Hong Kong film star, Zhou Haimei has had a significant influence on generations of Asian audiences, including those in Vietnam. In 2019, the actress visited Vietnam for the first time. She had a short trip to interact with fans and enjoy the cuisine and culture in Ho Chi Minh City.
The once-famous TVB beauty left a good impression on both Vietnamese audiences and media at the time because of her enthusiasm and friendliness.

The actress shared her experiences in beauty care. She said it's important for women to love themselves and find meaning in life. Even in her 50s, she doesn't feel lonely living with her six pets.
After attending the event, Chau Hai My spent time visiting several places in Ho Chi Minh City. She took photos at a Hoi An-style cafe, Buu Long Pagoda in Thu Duc, Tan Dinh Church, etc. At that time, the actress had difficulty walking and needed the help of an assistant. Many people believe that her health was affected by lupus erythematosus.
Many people still remember Zhou Haimei for her role as Zhou Zhiruo in the 1994 version of *The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber*, and she's even been dubbed "the most beautiful Zhou Zhiruo." But it turns out she initially refused to play the character because she didn't like Zhou Zhiruo's personality. The director even approached her to persuade her and explain the role.

In 2019, she once again appeared in a new version of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, but this time playing the role of Abbess Miejue. Just like before, director Jiang Jiajun had to repeatedly persuade Zhou Haimei before she agreed to participate. The actress feared she would ruin the classic work.
She shared: "Each age group faces different challenges. This year I'm over 50. Playing the role of the Exterminating Nun is fitting."
Chow Hoi-mei was born in Hong Kong, China on December 6, 1966. She is the second of four siblings. To give his daughter experience, her father registered her for the Miss Hong Kong (China) pageant, but she did not advance far, only making it to the top 30. This also served as a stepping stone for Chow Hoi-mei to successfully sign a contract with TVB and enter the entertainment industry.

After several failed relationships, Zhou Haimei now lives a free and independent life as a single woman. She said, "I feel my life is so fulfilling. My current life is very free."
On the evening of December 12th, Lu Liangwei, Zhou Haimei's ex-husband, expressed his condolences after hearing the news: "It's so sudden, Haimei. I couldn't stay calm for a long time after hearing the news. Thank you for bringing so much goodness to this world . May you continue to smile in the afterlife. I hope your loved ones will suppress their grief and take care of their health."
