Martial arts superstar Jet Li, whose net worth is rumored to be as high as NT$8.9 billion (about RM1.15 billion), has recently drawn public attention due to discussions about his health recovery and rejuvenation. His good friend Mrs. Charles Heung (Chen Lan) also shared in a recent video that Jet Li had handed over all of his assets to his second wife, Nina Li, as an expression of his sincerity. This was originally seen as a model marriage, but it soon sparked debate after some netizens claimed that when Jet Li was hospitalized for thyroid tumor surgery, Nina Li would only visit him for 15 minutes a day. She was criticized for turning her back on him after getting the money, causing a stir; however, this matter has not been confirmed by those involved.
After Jet Li remarried Nina Li in 1999, it is rumored that all his income has since been handed over to his wife, a matter Mrs. Heung also confirmed in her recent video. Mrs. Heung stated that when Jet Li was pursuing Nina Li, there were many wealthy suitors, while Jet Li was just a poor young man; in order to win her over, Jet Li promised that he would hand over all his future earnings to Nina Li for her to manage, which ultimately touched her. Interestingly, when Jet Li received his first check worth tens of millions, he hesitated about handing it over and even asked Nina Li if they could split it in half. Nina Li immediately responded, "Get lost, let's break up right now!" In order to keep her, Jet Li eventually handed over the check, and from then on, every penny he earned was managed by Nina Li.
After Mrs. Heung’s video was exposed, netizens immediately accused Nina Li of being materialistic and loving only money, with some even claiming that when Jet Li was in the hospital, Nina Li only visited him for 15 minutes each day. However, there is no evidence for any of these allegations. Still, the key phrase "Jet Li hospitalized, Nina Li reportedly visits just 15 minutes per day" shot to number 12 on the Weibo trending searches, sparking heated discussion among fans.
