Lin made her acting debut in a TV commercial in Taiwan. After playing supporting roles in various TV dramas for 2 years, Lin became an Asian superstar overnight with her breakout role as Xia Ziwei in the mega-hit series My Fair Princess (1998-1999). Since then she has starred in other hit series like The Duke of Mount Deer (2000), Romance in the Rain (2001), Flying Daggers (2003), Boy & Girl (2003), and Affair of Half a Lifetime (2004). Her singing career began with the five-track Heartbeat in 1999. While focusing her career on television, she also acted in films, winning a Huading Award for Sophie's Revenge (2009).

After a period of career stagnation, in 2009 Lin left her management company Huayi Brothers to establish Ruby Lin Studio,[1] and in 2010 enjoyed a resurgence of popularity with ancient dramas Beauty's Rival in Palace and Three Kingdoms. Lin's production debut The Glamorous Imperial Concubine (2011), starring herself, not only topped Chinese TV ratings but also set a record on streaming website Youku with 300 million views in 17 days.[2] Following this success, Lin has continued to produce many dramas and television films that she also starred in. According to Apple Daily, Lin was the third highest-earning Taiwanese drama actress in 2011,[3] and the top-earning in 2012[4] and 2013.[5]

Early life

Lin was born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan, the eldest of three children, having one brother a year younger and the other, six years younger.[6] Her father was a businessman, and her mother a housewife. Her English name is from her mother's love of the jewel.[7] After her parents' divorce, when Lin was seven years old, she lived with her mother, who took her to visit relatives in Japan every year.[8] She graduated from Ri Xin Primary School and Zhong Dian High School.[9] Lin originally planned on going to the United Kingdom to study after high school graduation, never considering the prospect of an acting career. However, she began her acting career at age seventeen as a part-time model. Her first TV commercial was for Jasmine Tea.[10]

Lin's parents did not like the idea of their daughter being involved in the entertainment industry,[8] but she decided to pursue an acting career. After appearing in many commercials, her parents finally agreed to allow her to sign a contract with an entertainment-management company. Following high school graduation, Lin joined Jessie and Jones Entertainment Ltd[11] on her 20th birthday. Over the years, she has also helped her parents to reconcile.[12]

Career

Early work (1995–1996)

When Lin received her first experience in front of the camera in 1995, for a minor role, she started to develop a passion for acting. After filming her first TV commercial Lin caught the attention of TV and film directors, and many companies began seeking her for roles.[13] After shooting some commercials, Lin received her first role in a film (School Days, with Jimmy Lin and Takeshi Kaneshiro). That same year, she was also cast in supporting roles in Taiwanese TV dramas. From 1995 to 1997, Lin had roles in several Taiwanese TV series, and began to attract notice. In 1996, Lin went to China for the first time to film; she considered this a period of valuable experience and a time that she began to learn about acting.

“ "I was in my second year of high school when I first got involved in film & TV industry. I thought there would be other opportunities for me to study abroad, but one does not bump into the opportunity to be in a film every day. So, I just went and had a try. I told myself that if my filming career didn't work out, then I could still go back to school. But things are not always as they may have appeared to be."[14] ”

Breakthrough (1997–2001)

After playing minor roles in various series and films, Lin was selected by Taiwanese writer Chiung Yao to audition for a main role in the new TV drama My Fair Princess. In 1997, Lin achieved popularity as the beloved Princess Ziwei in the series My Fair Princess, appealing to large audiences in mainland China, Hong Kong, South Korea, and Southeast Asia. Chiung Yao had originally arranged for Lin to play the role of Sai Ya, but since the actress scheduled to play the main role was unavailable, the production team re-shuffled the female cast. After some deliberation, the company thought that Lin was most suitable as Zi Wei.[8] When My Fair Princess was broadcast it received the highest ratings in China, and Lin rose to prominence.[15]

“ "After it was decided that I played the role of Zi wei, I got the script only three days before I had to leave for filming. And that was also the first time I was leaving my native place for such a long time for filming and I had to overcome the challenges of being in an unfamiliar environment. (Taiwan Cover story Interview in 2001)"[8] ”

After My Fair Princess, Lin starred in a number of successful television series. In 2000 she worked in Hong Kong TVB's production of The Duke of Mount Deer with Dicky Cheung, Shu Qi and other well-known artists. In this series, Lin played Princess Jian Ning – a sassy, funny girl. This role demonstrated her acting range, since it differed from the nice, sweet image she had developed from her role in My Fair Princess. After starring in another Chinese series (Romance in the Rain, written by Chiung Yao), Lin was included in the Top Ten Most Famous Asian Superstars for two consecutive years (2000 and 2001).[16] The same year, she was selected in fourth place in "Malaysia 2001 Heavenly Kings & Queens".[17]

As Lin felt she had achieved all she could in television, she also appeared in three Hong Kong films in 2000. In 2001, Lin appeared in the action movie China Strike Force with Aaron Kwok and Taiwanese actor-singer Leehom Wang. Although Lin had only a supporting role, she considered it a learning experience. With these Hong Kong films, she made inroads into the Hong Kong market.[15]

Mainstream success (2002–2005)

Since 2002, Lin focused on her career in mainland China. In 2002, she starred in three series - Half Life Fate (Pinyin: Ban Sheng Yuan) (adapted from Zhang Ailing’s novel Eighteen Springs), Boy & Girl and Flying Daggers. Lin was chosen for the female lead in the TV version of Half Life Fate; the film version was directed by Ann Hui, a well-known Asian director. For Lin, it was a challenging role and she was under pressure.

“ "From all the characters that I have played in, there's a series that gave me the biggest pressure -- "Ban Sheng Yuan"" (Interview on June 25, 2003) ”

Lin's work yielded good results; her performance enhanced her fame, earning accolades for capturing her screen character Man Zhen’s 14 years of arduous life. The series was broadcast in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea.[18] In 2002, Lin also appeared in the romantic TV series Boy & Girl; it was broadcast throughout China by CCTV, receiving the highest rating of all series aired in 2003.[19] With this series, Lin was selected one of the Top 10 actresses of the year; of those 10 actresses, she was the only one from Taiwan.[16] That year she also appeared in the ancient martial arts TV series Flying Daggers (based on Gu Long's novel). Lin not only acted in a martial-arts series for the first time but also played against type – portraying a cold assassin, rather than her usual gentle damsel. These three series were released in 2003 throughout Asia, adding to Lin's success. Though Lin focused on TV series, she continued to appear in films such as the adventure drama Life Express (with Richie Ren) and the romantic comedy Love Trilogy (with Francis Ng and Anita Yuen), which was relatively successful in China.

In 2004 productions such as Amor de Tarapaca (co-starring Korean actor Han Jae Suk), she began a trend towards China-Korea collaborations. Lin was involved in another original Korean screenplay, Magic Touch of Fate, co-starring Taiwanese actor Alec Su and Korean idol KangTa. This series is the highest-budgeted miniseries in Asian television history (as of 2011). By this time, Lin had been in show business for almost a decade, with nearly non-stop filming.
