The 52-year-old former TVB artist and anchor Lin Zibo moved to the UK with his two children three years ago, and three years have passed in a blink of an eye. In the past three years of living in the UK, Lin Zibo's family's life in the UK has not been as smooth as imagined, when they immigrated to the time when the local epidemic was at its worst, the family of three went to a place where they had never lived, starting from scratch, and they could not find a stable place to live for a while. In fact, until now, after living in the local area for three years, Lin Zibo still can't fully integrate into the local life, and even the most basic communication has problems, but he just insists on not returning to China, saying that he wants to stay and pave the way for his daughter to go to university in the local area.
Lin Zibo has a son and a daughter with his wife, immigrated to the UK three years ago, and chose to immigrate at that time, he said that it was because his wife died of cancer and wanted to leave the sad place, and also said that it was his wife's last wish to immigrate abroad with children. So he disposed of all his properties in Hong Kong, and a year after his wife's death, despite the severity of the epidemic, he immigrated to the UK with a pair of children in a low-key manner. For Lin Zibo's family, living in the UK is to start from scratch, it is not a rich and wealthy family, and there is no good English foundation, so it has been a frustration to live in the UK, due to the cost of living, the family did not choose a big city like London, but lived in Manchester City.
In the past three years of living in the UK, Lin Zibo has not had a very stable job, and his main job is to take care of his children's daily life. He said that he had to take care of his children every day, do housework, cook, and even repair household appliances, in short, he did everything by himself. But when it comes to the most difficult thing in life, it is the problem of communication. Lin Zibo's English is not good in the first place, so living in the local area, communication has become a big difficulty, so far, he can't even fully express his inner thoughts in English, so it is impossible for him to find a job in the local area.
Life in the UK is full of setbacks, but Lin Zibo insists on not returning to Hong Kong, he claims that he immigrated to the UK in the hope that his children would come to study abroad, see the world, be exposed to different cultures, and expect them to graduate from university, so no matter how difficult it is, he gritted his teeth and insisted, will patiently wait for the return, and will not give up easily. It is precisely because of his high expectations for his children that now that his daughter is about to go to college, he has placed all his hopes on his daughter. He knew that his daughter liked London the most, so on his daughter's 19th birthday, he specially arranged for his daughter to celebrate her birthday in London, and the family first went to Bristol and visited the University of Bristol, which should be planned to arrange for her daughter to study here in the future, of course, this is also two years later.
Lin Zibo said frankly that he hopes that his daughter can successfully study her favorite subjects, and even more hopes that her daughter can integrate into British culture and meet more local friends. When it comes to his daughter, he always hates iron and steel, because his daughter only pays attention to the information of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea until now, and is not very involved in local life. How to say it, Lin Zibo's daughter used to be exposed to Chinese culture in Hong Kong, and English is not her mother tongue, and she only came to live in the UK at the age of 16.
Lin Zibo's original identity was a male anchor of TVB's entertainment news station, and he was also an artist, participating in the performance of the series, and he has been unknown for many years, but his life is stable. Later, he was concerned by the outside world because his wife was terminally ill, and he was not renewed by TVB at that time, in order to treat his wife, he could only ask for help everywhere, and many artists in the circle reached out one after another, some people donated, some people sent supplies, some people introduced jobs for him, and he himself launched crowdfunding and raised at least two or three million - because he wanted to do immunotherapy for his wife, the price was very expensive, and he only did one issue in the end. Anyway, in order to save his wife at that time, his image as a good man was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so it attracted much attention.
It's a pity that Lin Zibo's wife left in the end, and surprisingly, not long after his wife left, he immigrated with a pair of children in a low-key manner. With Lin Zibo's conditions, immigration is simply a risk, initially his first choice was Canada, but his conditions did not meet the requirements of local immigrants and was rejected, so he could only turn to the United Kingdom. In the UK for three years, Lin Zibo made a living by being a video anchor, but it is unknown whether he can maintain the life of the whole family, after all, he treated his wife's illness back then, claimed to have exhausted his family wealth, and launched crowdfunding - whether he is now using the money that has not been used up by crowdfunding is unknown. In short, his current goal is to stay up until his children finish college, what will happen in the future, and in the future, anyway, he will insist on not returning to Hong Kong.
