Biography[edit]

Hai was born in 1978 in Gulou District, Nanjing.[citation needed] She began acting in television shows at the age of seven, before joining the Jiangsu Provincial Theater School at age twelve.[citation needed] In 1997, she was accepted to the Beijing Film Academy[citation needed] and shortly afterwards appeared in her first feature film, Jade Goddess of Mercy. Hai returned to the small screen a few years later, appearing in a number of supporting roles, before joining the cast of A Beautiful Daughter-in-law Era. As the character Guo Hai-ping, Hai went on to receive three award nominations: two at the Golden Eagle Awards and one at the Flying Apsaras Awards.[6]

In 2015, while attending a United Nations HeForShe banquet, Hai was appointed the first UN Women goodwill ambassador for China by Assistant Secretary-General Lakshmi Puri.[5] In this role, she became involved in the UN's "Step It Up for Gender Equality" campaign to end violence against women and help empower women in China.
