In 1993, the song "Lovebirds" resounded throughout the country, making the singer Lin Yilun a well-known singer.
It is said that the 1990s was the heyday of the Hong Kong music scene, and among the many talented singers, Lin Yilun was one of them.
With his handsome appearance and loud singing voice, Lin Yilun has become the "dream man" in the hearts of many fans. He is still well-maintained as usual, but at this time, his identity is no longer a singer, but a gourmet, entrepreneur, collector, and anchor. Over 50 years old, he is still active on the screen and has quietly become an invisible rich man in the entertainment industry.
On April 4, 1970, Lin Yilun was born in Beijing.
Her real name is Lin Fang, and she, her brother, and her sister were each named after the Chinese character "Dongfanghong".
Because the birth date of Dehua was so special, his mother kept saying that he had a bad life. However, his childhood was also very miserable.
Because my father’s bad temper came up at any time, he would punch and kick him whenever he was angry.
This makes Lin Yilun very timid.
Although he is the tallest among his peers, he is always bullied.
Sometimes when walking on the road and seeing someone who often bullies him, Lin Yilun will subconsciously hide in the corner.
Recalling what happened at that time, Lin Yilun bluntly said that I was really too cowardly at that time.
It is precisely because of his childhood experience that he has a better understanding of children's fear of adults.
After having a child, Lin Yilun also fulfilled his duty to be a good father.
Although his childhood life was not very happy, Lin Yilun also found his purpose in life, which is to become a singer.
Since both of her parents were opera singers, Lin Yilun, who had been surrounded by the artistic atmosphere since childhood, naturally developed an interest in music.
At the age of 15, Lin Yilun joined the Hebei Cultural and Art Troupe and often performed at the grassroots level, which gave him a taste of what it was like to be a singer.
In the art troupe, he learned to sing, play the piano and dance. He also held multiple positions in the troupe, including loading and unloading the stage. During this period, he gave all the wages he earned to his mother for safekeeping.
When he was 18 years old, Lin Yilun met someone from a Guangzhou record company. Hoping for better development, he volunteered to go to Guangzhou for development.
In 1988, Lin Yilun left his hometown, taking 800 yuan of savings and some food stamps alone to pursue his dream.
This decision also changed his fate.
After Lin Yilun came to Guangzhou for the first time, he finally became a resident singer in a karaoke bar.
This was somewhat different from his previous expectation. He thought that if he had a good voice, he would be able to successfully become a singer and release records.
But his ideal made him understand that this road is not so easy. At this time, he even had trouble eating.
At that time, in the late 1980s, there was a wave of "going abroad craze" across the country.
At the suggestion of his friends, Lin Yilun also decided to go abroad to hunt for gold.
But Lin Yilun still had something up his sleeve. Three months before going abroad, he took the self-study "Level 3 Chef Certificate."
Facts have proved that Lin Yilun was prescient.
When he came to Bolivia with a borrowed 30,000 yuan, he found that things were not as simple as everyone said.
After many days, Lin Yilun gave up his career as a singer and used his chef certificate to work as a chef in a Chinese restaurant.
When he first arrived at the restaurant, Lin Yilun was assigned to make a steaming plate and cut vegetables.
Because the boss's requirements were very strict, Lin Yilun was often scolded at first.
As he became more and more skilled, Lin Yilun also showed his amazing talent in cooking.
Over time, Lin Yilun’s cooking has become a signature here, and many people come here to order and eat his cooking.
Lin Yilun is also relatively well-known locally.
Perhaps his food was too delicious, so Lin Yilun fed himself into a fat man weighing nearly 200 pounds.
I also worked hard to lose weight.
When he came in to sing with his colleagues, Lin Yilun sang in front of everyone for the first time.
Everyone was shocked by his beautiful singing voice and wondered why he didn't become a singer.
Lin Yilun was not thinking about it, but at this time he didn't know whether to stick to a stable job or follow music.
Under the persuasion of friends, Lin Yilun felt that he should stick to his ideal.
So, at the age of 23, he boarded a plane to Guangzhou again.
But with little savings, he spent most of the money on air tickets. In order to pay off the debt before going abroad, Lin Yi worked as a resident singer in 7 karaoke bars before paying off the money.
Just when he didn't know how to live his life tomorrow, he was appreciated by the famous musician Zhang Quanfu.
Zhang Quanfu recommended him to sign a contract with New Era Video Company and showed him the song "Lovebirds" that he had collected for many years.
It was this song that instantly made Lin Yilun a famous singer far and wide.
However, the company did not intend to spend money on publicity for him as a newcomer at the beginning. For his own career and ideals, Lin Yilun spent all his funds as publicity expenses for this song "Lovebirds".
However, what no one expected was that this song actually topped the charts for 9 consecutive weeks.
Also participated in the opening and closing ceremonies of the International Art Festival Music Expo.
Lin Yilun also won numerous awards for this song and became the audience's favorite male singer.
The subsequent classic songs such as "Start for Happiness", "Bring Your Story and Follow Me", etc., all brought Lin Yilun's career to a higher level.
The prosperous career has also earned Lin Yilun the reputation of a "heartless man".
It turned out that when Lin Yilun first returned to Guangzhou, he met the singer Huang Lian, and the two gradually developed into a lover through repeated contacts.
Later on, the distance between the two continued to grow. As Lin Yilun's career became more and more prosperous, the conflict between the two also escalated.
The two people who found that they had different personalities decided to break up and end their relationship.
Lin Yilun, who returned to being single, met his current wife, Xihua, in 1994. She is a model and a former beauty pageant champion.
At that time, Lin Yilun was also having a prosperous career. At a party, he met the gentle Xihua and fell in love with her at first sight.
And Xihua also secretly fell in love with this talented man.
The two got married a year after falling in love and gave birth to two sons, and they are still together today.
Whenever he mentions his wife, Lin Yilun’s eyes are full of happiness. He said: I am grateful to her for letting me experience the warmth and happiness of family.
Many people in the industry also admire the relationship between the couple and claim that if they divorce, there will be no true love in the world.
With the help of his wife, Lin Yilun started an investment business, and it grew bigger and bigger, covering a wide range of areas.
Although Lin Yilun is now 51 years old, he still has the courage to try new things and has become one of the few celebrities who can do such an excellent live broadcast.
