In 2024, the domestic concert market will still be hot, and many popular singers are intensively singing. In 2023, Lin Junjie officially announced that he will start a world tour, and at least 10 regions in China have started preparations, and some cities even want to prepare for two. On May 11, the concert that opened at Jinan Station made the audience shout "refund the ticket, change the seat" at the venue because of the seat view problem, saying that "the 980 yuan ticket can't even be seen on the screen". In the video reflected by this viewer, the direction facing the stage and the big screen is blocked by the railing.
Regarding the problems reported by consumers, the organizers of Lin Junjie's concert did not actively respond. Previously, Lin Junjie was named more than once in the concert held in China due to the inconsistent refund policy, which seriously affected the experience of consumers watching the performance. Especially in the first half of this year, Lin Junjie traveled to 10 cities in the mainland, holding two concerts in each place, and the refund policy for a total of 20 concerts was complained about as a hard-hit area.
As a childhood idol for many people, Lin Junjie is regarded as Chinese, but he is actually Singaporean. Born in Singapore in 1981, even though his ancestral home is in Fujian, China, he returned to China after studying and living in Singapore and started his music career, and has never changed his nationality again.

But at that time, he had no choice but to follow his father's wishes and change to Australian citizenship.
Many years later, Zhang Zhilin thought that it was very ridiculous for him to change his Australian nationality, but now that he has his own son, Zhang Zhilin no longer changes his nationality for his children. And Zhang Zhilin's other half, Yuan Yuyi's family background is a police family, and Genzheng Miaohong can be said to be not worried about their position.
