Hong Kong actor Chow Yun-fat’s generous will inspires Chinese mother and daughter to leave assets to the public

The mother surnamed Lv and the daughter surnamed Ye went to the Second Service Centre of the China Will Registration Centre in Shanghai to make their wills earlier this month, the Shanghai Morning Post reported.

Lv said that she had felt for a long time that it was a pity that no one would inherit the house after her daughter died, as the latter had no partner or children.

She said she does not follow the example of many other Chinese parents who force their children to marry.

It was the daughter who persuaded Lv to donate the property to the government, the report said.
