‘Hardware Malfunction’ Leads to Surgery: Has Jet Li Already Made Arrangements for His Affairs?

The 'Kung Fu Emperor' Jet Li shared a photo from his hospital bed on Douyin on the 17th, sparking concern. That evening, he posted on Weibo, stating, "The hardware has encountered a little problem and needs some maintenance in the factory. Thank you all for your concern; don't worry too much about me~~ Just taking a break, taking a break."

Now 62 years old, Jet Li was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in 2013. In the past, there have been repeated false rumors about his death. When he came to Taiwan to promote his new book in November two years ago, he even joked, "I'm not dead yet," personally debunking the rumors. In recent years, he has stepped back from the big screen, choosing instead to interact with fans through short videos, sharing his daily life. Recently, he also revealed that all four of his beloved daughters have graduated from university, and that he personally flew abroad to attend their graduation ceremonies, offering fans a rare glimpse of the action star's personal side.

However, on the 17th, he posted a photo of himself lying in a hospital bed on Douyin, with the caption, "Recently, I went through another trial of impermanence." The revelation of his frail appearance made fans anxious, and they all prayed for his speedy recovery. An antique collector who had previously worked with Jet Li stated on Douyin that he contacted Jet Li through WeChat, "Everything is going very smoothly, he can eat and drink. Brother Jie asked me to reassure everyone and let you all know he's safe."

In recent years, Jet Li has significantly reduced his work output due to health issues and has devoted himself to Buddhist practice. He once shared in an interview that he was an autism patient, and has come to terms with life and death. There is even talk that Jet Li told his wife, Lizhi, that he has already decided how his affairs should be handled after his passing—it is said that he hopes to keep things simple, with no tombstone or ceremony, and that he is open to either a tree burial or sea burial.
