On December 14, Chinese media reported that actress He Tinh - who participated in films adapted from "The Four Great Works" of Chinese literature (Tam Quoc Dien Nghia, Thuy Hu, Tay Du Ky, Hong Lau Mong) - passed away from a serious illness, at the age of 61.
According to the indictment, Ha Tinh passed away on December 13 in Beijing (China). Her memorial service will be held on the morning of December 15 at the Xuong Binh Funeral Home, Beijing.
Ha Tinh was born in 1964 in Jiangson, Guizhou City, Zhejiang Province (China). At the age of 5, after watching the plays "Bach Bao Nu" and "Hong Nuong Tu Quan", she was inspired and proactively imitated the dance, even within just 2 weeks, her toes were eroded.
In high school, Ha Tinh was the core of artistic activities in class, almost every performance had her participation. The solo performance " Diep Duong Hoa" performed by her was also accepted by the school as a disc - an unprecedented thing at that time.
Later, Ha Tinh passed the same exam at the Beijing Drama Academy, Zhejiang Arts School and the Zhejiang Kon Chuc Drama Group. However, because she was 3 cm short of height, she was almost rejected by the Con Tra troupe.
Fortunately, thanks to the two songs " Diep Duong Hoa" and "Tong Quan Com", Ha Tinh conquered the judges and was specially selected as a reserve actor, becoming a classmate of Luc Tieu Linh Dong.
Ha Tinh officially entered the entertainment industry in 1983 when participating in the movie "The young provincial courtesans of the students".
Later, she was the only Chinese actress to participate in all four of the " Four Great Cities", so she was hailed as the "first historical beauty".
In 1984, Ha Tinh was chosen by director Duong Khiet to play Lien Lien - transforming into Linh Cat Bo Tat - in "Tay Du Ky" ( premiered in 1986). With her flexible and lovely acting style, she is known as the "sweetest Bo Tat" in the hearts of the audience.
In 1988, in the movie version of "Hong Lau Mong" (released in 1989), Ha Tinh plays the role of Qin Ka Qing, depicting the charming, traditional beauty, most emotionally expressing the tragic fate of the 12 typical female characters in the novel "Hong Lau Mong".
In 1993, Ha Tinh reached the peak of her career. In CCTV's "Tam Quoc Dien Nghia", the gentle, beautiful Tieu Kieu role she plays has become a classic role, appearing with Duong Quoc Cuong (as Gia Cat Luong) and Bao Quoc An (as Tao Thao).
In 1996, He Tinh continued to challenge himself with the role of Li Su Si in Thuy Hu.
Although her career was brilliant, her life went through many ups and downs. In 1989, while filming "The Village girl", He Tinh developed feelings for actor Liu Uy. The two lived together for 5 years, but eventually broke up because of frequent distances.
In 1995, when participating in "Feng He Uan", He Tinh was involved in a relationship with a married actor, Hua A Quan. To get to know her, Hua A Quan divorced his second wife Truong Hy. This "female pearl gold" couple once caused a stir in public opinion.
In 2001, son Hua Ha was born, bringing a warm family atmosphere. But Xu Aun's traditional concept - hoping that she would give up her career to return to take care of her family - violated Ha Tinh's desire for independence.
In 2003, the 8-year marriage ended in divorce. After that, Hua A Quan continued to get married many times, while Ha Tinh remained single and raised children alone.
In 2015, Ha Tinh was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Despite undergoing surgery to open her skull, she still could not continue acting. After falling ill, she gradually withdrew from the entertainment industry.
Her last appearance was in 2023, when she met friends.
