I was wondering how come that on this page, it is written that Zhou Xuan died of cephalitis, when on the page about [Shanghai], it says that she committed suicide.

[edit] She most definitely died of illness.

This is well known and established in virtually all sources. A misconstrued figure of speech might have been the cause for the misconception that Zhou died of other causes. It is commonly said that Zhou died of "a broken heart" - she died shortly after a nervous breakdown - a nervous breakdown can hardly be deemed a direct cause of death.

As many famous actresses who enjoyed great success and popularity, Zhou was nevertheless made very unhappy by the men in her several relationships. Thus it is also commonly said that she was "driven to death/madness" by the cruel men in her life. That, however does not imply murder or suicide.

no we can not imply anything but just one question, isn't it strange that her death certificate still remains classified at the mental institute that she was forced into?
