Preface
In the classic TV series "Journey to the West", the unforgettable role like the bright moonlight is none other than Zhu Lin, the king of the daughter country who affectionately calls for "Royal Brother ~".
This tender and sweet call not only made Xu Shaohua, who played Tang Seng, look shy and blush, but also made countless viewers waiting in front of the TV fascinated and fascinated.
As an actor, Zhu Lin not only has an amazing appearance, but her acting skills are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
When filming the story of the daughter country in "Journey to the West", she frankly said that she and Xu Shaohua, who played Tang Seng, were not pure "acting" in the performance process, but true feelings, and it was this real emotional investment that made their rivalry reach an unprecedented artistic height.
Although Zhu Lin only appeared in one episode in the play, the image of the king of the daughter country she created with a thousand manners and affectionate focus was deeply imprinted in the hearts of the national audience and became an eternal classic.
Zhu Lin herself has a dignified character, noble temperament, subtle and introverted personality, and her unique intellectual charm makes her the best choice to interpret the role of "intellectual woman" in her acting career.
Looking back on her career, from the beginning of her dancer, to the completion of medical studies, to the transformation into a professional actor with a "non-professional background", and officially entered the film and television industry after the professional training of the Beijing Film Academy, how did Zhu Lin sharpen herself step by step, improve her acting skills, and finally emerge in the industry?
Today, let's travel through time and space, enter the inner world of Zhu Lin, the "King of the Daughter Country", explore her growth trajectory and current situation, and appreciate the life style of this legendary actress.
【1】
From medical workers to film and television stars, the literary and artistic dream under the white coat illuminates the road to transformation
Zhu Lin, a Beijing woman born in 1952, has been bathed in a strong bookish atmosphere since she was a child.
Her father was a professor at the Beijing Institute of Technology, and her mother worked as a doctor at the Research Institute of the Ministry of Health.
Zhu Lin, who has loved literature and art since childhood, began to learn dance early, interpreting her yearning and dedication to art with her dancing posture.
At the age of 17, with her outstanding talent and unremitting efforts, she was successfully admitted to the Beijing Communication Corps Art Troupe and became a professional dancer.
After five years in the art troupe, Zhu Lin gradually became tired of the daily repetitive jumps and spins, and she longed for a more quiet and restrained job like her parents.
In 1975, Zhu Lin made the decision to change her career, and she joined the Institute for Drug Control of the Ministry of Health and began a new study and working career.
After three years of hard work, Zhu Lin successfully graduated from the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and became a practitioner with professional knowledge.
Despite being in a rigorous scientific research environment, Zhu Lin's beauty and temperament cannot be concealed by white overalls.
She is fair-skinned and beautiful, with outstanding temperament, even if she is wearing a white coat, she is like a white lotus blooming in the laboratory, which is eye-catching and irresistible.
The turning point occurred in 1980, when the director of the movie "Traitor" caught a glimpse of Zhu Lin at work by chance.
The elegance and dignity under the white coat deeply moved the director, and he immediately decided to invite Zhu Lin to play the role of a kind-hearted medical assistant in the film.
Coincidentally, this role is highly compatible with Zhu Lin's own work, and she naturally combines her professionalism with her acting talent to interpret the role to the fullest, and her performance is not inferior even to those actors in the crew.
This free first experience on the screen was like a lightning bolt that illuminated Zhu Lin's temporarily forgotten "literary dream" in her heart, awakening her deep attachment to the stage and screen.
The following year, Zhu Lin resolutely bid farewell to the stable iron rice bowl, resolutely signed up for the amateur acting training class of Beijing Film Academy, and embarked on a new journey of pursuing an acting career with Zhao Baogang, Zhang Guangbei, Li Qinqin and other classmates who later also became famous in the entertainment industry.
This bold decision marks Zhu Lin's official return to her original intention and re-embracing her deep love and pursuit of art.

Zhu Lin and her classmates build dreams together, Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Gu Changwei, and his youthful years
In that era full of passion and dreams, when the news of the acting class opened by Beiying was released, it attracted young people with artistic ideals from all over the country like a magnet.
In a short period of time, the number of applicants exceeded 3,000, which shows its popularity.
After the strict screening of the preliminary examination and the second examination, only 30 lucky students in two classes were able to stand out and officially embark on the road of performance learning.
Among the 30 people is a woman named Zhu Lin, who will spend four years of study with a group of equally talented classmates to write their own youth stories.
Zhu Lin's list of classmates is star-studded, including Zhao Baogang, Li Qiang, Zhang Guangbei, Li Chengru, Li Qinqin and others who will shine in the film and television industry in the future.
At that time, they had not yet foreseen their respective brilliant achievements in the future, but they were just studying campus, learning from each other, and growing together.
Perhaps, Zhu Lin never thought that a few years later she would play the classic role of the king of the daughter country in "Journey to the West", and this is inextricably linked with her classmate Li Chengru.
At the same time, other students of the 78th performance department of Beiying also wrote their own wonderful life trajectories.
Xie Yuan, this mischievous and clean guy, always thinks of ways to trick Zhang Tielin, who also loves cleanliness, but he is always wary of not being taught a lesson by the strong Zhang Fengyi.
Chen Guoxing and Fang Shu, who is known as the "class flower", have feelings for each other, although they may not have foreseen that they would get married in the future at that time, but that youthful emotion has quietly sprouted in their hearts.
Wang Yue may not have expected that he would become popular all over the country with the corner of "Tang Seng".
And Shen Danping, as the youngest girl in the class, is innocent and carefree.
In the director department, there are also a group of future film masters who are working silently.
Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Gu Changwei, Tian Zhuangzhuang and others are all working hard to study business knowledge and lay a solid foundation for the future of art.
At that time, Chen Kaige was only 29 years old, and he probably never dreamed that his future wife Chen Hong was only 13 years old at the time, and Zhang Yimou, who was two years older than him, may be even more unimaginable, that the newborn baby Chen Ting will become the mother of his three children in the future.
In contrast, although the 24-year-old Gu Changwei is younger than the previous two, the age gap is not small compared with his future wife Jiang Wenli, after all, Jiang Wenli was already 15 years old at that time.
These talented actors and directors later became the backbone of the Chinese film and television industry and made great contributions to the development of Chinese films.
As the crash course was about to end, it coincided with the graduation of the 78 undergraduates, and the two classes worked together to complete the graduation project.
Zhu Lin's graduation work "Small Courtyard" can be called a luxurious lineup, co-directed by two directors, Tian Zhuangzhuang and Xie Xiaojing, and well-known photographers such as Zhang Yimou, Hou Yong, and Lu Le participated in the shooting.
Although Zhang Yimou is only one of the eight photographers in this film, his lens gives the film a unique charm of light and shadow, although he is only responsible for two or three minutes of footage, it is enough to make people impressed.

Zhu Lin and Xu Shaohua's feelings are undercurrent, and suspicion is aroused in and out of the play
"As long as you open your eyes and look at me, I don't believe you will be indifferent. This line, which was frequently praised by director Yang Jie in "Journey to the West", has become one of the classic episodes of the play.
Among the ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties experienced by Tang monks and apprentices, only the daughter country is a test, which is not only a test of the wisdom and courage of subduing demons and eliminating demons, but also a deep excavation of emotional entanglements in human nature.
In order to more vividly show Tang Seng's inner world as a mortal, director Yang Jie took great pains to shoot the plot of the daughter country, and she clearly stated that Tang Seng must be allowed to experience a "love" in the daughter country, so as to highlight the arduousness and complexity of the relationship.
"If he hasn't touched even a little bit of mortal heart, how can he be considered a living man?" It is based on this creative concept that the audience deeply resonates with the regrettable tragic ending in the chapter of the daughter country.
After determining the emotional main line, director Yang Jie's first task was to find a daughter king who could touch Tang Seng's heartstrings.
The ideal candidate in her mind not only needs to have a beautiful appearance and a dignified temperament, but also has the ability to portray Tang Seng's infatuated and dedicated emotions, which makes it difficult for people to divert their attention at a glance.
At the same time, the character must not be overwhelmed by overly glamorous outfits, lest they fall into clichés.
In order to find the most suitable candidate, director Yang Jie screened extensively across the country, attracting many actresses to be eager to try, and even Yang Chunxia, who played the white bone spirit in the play, also took the initiative to ask for help.
Yang Chunxia's excellent portrayal of the ruthless and vicious image of the white bone spirit impressed the audience, but made her miss the role of the king of her daughter's country.
In the massive photos and materials, Director Yang Jie's eyes were attracted by Zhu Lin's appearance, and coincidentally, Zhu Lin happened to be an old classmate of Li Chengru, the field manager of the crew.
When the two met for the first time on the set, although they were silent with each other, there was a subtle and tacit atmosphere that made director Yang Jie believe that he had found the right person.
During the actual filming, director Yang Jie asked Zhu Lin and Tang Seng played by Xu Shaohua to convey strong feelings, and let the audience feel the subtle emotional flow between them through eye contact and physical interaction.
Due to the large neckline of the costume worn by Zhu Lin, Xu Shaohua was inevitably a little restrained when performing, and he did not dare to look directly at Zhu Lin.
Coupled with the scorching summer heat, as well as the sultry dialogues in the script, Xu Shaohua's face was flushed with laughter and shyness many times during the filming process, which made these key scenes repeatedly filmed eight or nine times before finally passing.
The wonderful performance of Zhu Lin and Xu Shaohua in the play convinced many viewers that the emotional outpouring between them is not simply a pile of acting skills, but a real collision of hearts.
Unfortunately, after Zhu Lin completed the filming task, she and Xu Shaohua have never been in contact with each other, and the two have never responded positively to various speculations and rumors about their relationship between them, which is interpreted as a tacit acquiescence and acquiescence to the rumors in the eyes of some people.

"King of the Daughter Country" Zhu Lin and "Tang Seng" Xu Shaohua: A misrepresented infatuation and a happy remarriage in reality
There is an "emotional anecdote" widely circulated on the Internet about Zhu Lin, the actor of the king of the daughter country in "Journey to the West", and Xu Shaohua, the actor of Tang Sanzang in the play.
This story is described very well, saying that during the filming, Zhu Lin had a deep affection for Xu Shaohua.
It is said that once, the two watched ginkgo together between filming, during which Zhu Lin accidentally sprained her foot, and Xu Shaohua carried her back to the crew without hesitation.
This intimate contact made the two feel emotional, but the practical obstacle was that Xu Shaohua already had a family at the time, and this unsuccessful relationship made Zhu Lin disheartened, so that she has not entered the palace of marriage since then.
This story was mentioned again in the "Accidental Confession" section of the "Art Life" program, which made the public believe this rumor.
In the show, Zhu Lin faced the camera, her eyes were full of attachment to the characters in the play, and she said emotionally: "In my world, my eyes are always locked on that 'royal brother'.
There are many temptations in a person's life, and the king of the daughter country, who knows the righteousness and distinguishes between right and wrong, can regard love as a kind of enjoyment, a kind of happiness, a kind of longing, and unswervingly stick to it to the end, which is a supreme state.
"She did it, and I'm sure I can do it too. Subsequently, she added affectionately: "It has been a full 20 years since my daughter said goodbye to the country, I wonder if everything is okay with my brother and sister?" These words were interpreted by the outside world as Zhu Lin's true emotions for Xu Shaohua, making the relationship between the two once again the focus of heated discussions.
This widely circulated story has actually been denied by the person concerned, Zhu Lin himself.
She has laughed about this topic on many public occasions, saying: "Every time I participate in the show, it seems that I have to clarify this issue." In reality, Zhu Lin is not as rumored, and has never been married.
She had an unhappy marriage, but she did not lose her yearning for love.
Finally, in 2005, Zhu Lin ushered in the second spring of her life, and entered the marriage hall hand in hand with her current partner.

Zhu Lin and Xu Shaohua's 'unrequited love' rumors have not stopped for 35 years, and they have been married twice in a low-key and mysterious manner, insisting that 'Dink' has no children in his life"
During the filming of "Journey to the West", Zhu Lin and Xu Shaohua have both entered the marriage hall and each have their own happy families.
By chance, Zhu Lin's husband was joked by a friend at a comrade-in-arms party: "Your wife is still in unrequited love, and she is not married yet." After returning home, her husband complained to Zhu Lin: "Then what am I? Where am I?" Zhu Lin felt helpless about the various false rumors surrounding herself and Xu Shaohua over the years, and even couldn't laugh or cry.
In a program interview, she talked about the matter: "The TV station asked me to record a program with Xu Shaohua, but I just wiped the oil off my face with blotting paper, but it was interpreted as wiping tears, and the program team used these details to hype."
Later, when a reporter interviewed me, I told them that I was married, but it turned out that I was married and divorced. At the suggestion of a friend, Zhu Lin tried to clarify publicly, but with little success.
"I'm actually quite sympathetic to those who spread rumors, so why should I smash their jobs? I explained it in the media, but it turned out that I was hyping it on the Internet, and then I didn't bother to say anything more. This rumor has not completely dissipated and has been haunting Zhu Lin for 35 years.
Since her debut, Zhu Lin has always maintained a low-key and introverted style, with a calm attitude to life.
She had experienced an unknown failed marriage, but this did not stop her from starting her second marriage in 2005, at the age of 53.
Now, she and her husband are together and spend time together.
Friends around her occasionally tease her husband with Zhu Lin's story: "Your wife's story of unrequited love is really touching, why haven't you married yet?" After getting married, Zhu Lin and his wife lived in a simple house, rarely talked about their private life to the outside world, and maintained a low-key and mysterious image.
Not only that, but the husband and wife also adhered to the concept of "Dink" together and had no children in their lives.

From the fame of "Journey to the West" to the gorgeous retirement at the age of 63, he moved forward in a low-key manner full of honors
Since creating an unforgettable role in "Journey to the West", Zhu Lin's acting career has ushered in a new peak, and various film appointments have come one after another.
Especially in 1987, Zhu Lin won the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress with her outstanding performance in three films, and won the title of "Yongfang Cup" Top Ten Actors, and her superb acting skills have even won international recognition, and won the film and television awards issued by the Soviet Union and Italy respectively.
In 2000, she was once again recognized by the industry and won the "Ordos Cup" CCTV Most Popular Audience Award, which further consolidated her position in the film and television industry.
In the face of these honors and the recognition of the audience, Zhu Lin has always remained humble and low-key.
She knows that artistic achievements are important, but there is no need to overexpose one's private life, and only she knows the joys and choices best.
Therefore, in the praise of the outside world, she still insisted on taking her own acting path, not arrogant or impatient, and took over more than ten TV series in a down-to-earth manner.
Among them, "Six Groups of Serious Cases", "War Behind the Smoke of Gunpowder", "Sunshine Everywhere" and other works are widely known and loved by the audience because of their deep-rooted character creation and solid performance skills.
With the passage of time, after 2015, Zhu Lin gradually faded out of the stage of film and television dramas.
At this time, she has entered the age of 63, and when she reaches the legal retirement age, the natural changes in her body and energy prompted her to make the choice to say goodbye to the screen.
Despite this, a series of classic roles and professionalism she left to the audience will be engraved in the history of Chinese film and television for a long time, and become a common memory of a generation.

Zhu Lin appeared against her age at the age of 68, and Dink lived a happy life: living her own life without fear of worldly eyes
Time passed to the beginning of 2020, and an unexpected figure appeared on the stage of readers, she was Zhu Lin, who was 68 years old.
The former screen goddess recited "Let's Go to Find a Light" elegantly, showing calmness and atmosphere in her gestures, without the slightest trace of time left on her.
The audience was all amazed, who could have imagined that this lady with a down-to-earth demeanor and a radiant spirit was already a person of old age? Compared with her peers, Zhu Lin's appearance and temperament can be called against the sky, as if the years have treated her very favorably, and has not left any marks of vicissitudes.
Zhu Lin's attitude to life is as vibrant and free as her appearance.
Every once in a while, her social media accounts are updated with photos of her travels around the world.
In the picture, she sits on the road unrestrained, or enjoys the beautiful scenery, or chats with friends, and the state of being comfortable and casual is enviable.
Zhu Lin used her actions to interpret what it means to "live in the moment and enjoy life".
Although Zhu Lin chose to live a "Dink" life and did not have children, this did not prevent her from having a happiness of her own.
In the secular view, marriage and having children are regarded as the only way to go in life, but Zhu Lin challenges this traditional perception with practical actions.
After a failed marriage, she finally found a partner who matched her soul, and the two spent the rest of their lives together.
Zhu Lin often shares sweet photos with her husband on social platforms, although she is no longer the country and city she was young, but the charm and connotation precipitated by the years make people sigh that she is like a book that becomes more and more flavorful the more you read, and the charm is endless.
Today's Zhu Lin has lived a chic life that many people yearn for.
In her own way, she proves that marriage does not have to follow the traditional model of inheritance, and she can also choose to enjoy the peace and beauty of the world with her partner, away from the distractions of the world.
As the old saying goes: "There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater", but in Zhu Lin's view, Dink life is also a happy choice.
Everyone has the right to decide their own way of life when they come to this world, and they do not need to cater to the eyes of others, as long as they follow their hearts and live their lives without regrets, that is the greatest happiness.
Zhu Lin told us with practical actions that the definition of happiness is not the same, and everyone should be brave enough to pursue their own way of happiness.
