According to Singapore's Eye, on Tuesday (July 23rd), the British survey company YouGov released a survey result. For the second year in a row, Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong was elected as the eighth most admired person in Singapore, and JJ Lin ranked 10.
JJ Lin's ancestral home was in Fujian, but since his ancestors immigrated to Singapore, he became a Singaporean after his birth. Singapore is 80% Chinese, and its languages are mainly Chinese and English. The growing bilingual cultural background also laid a good foundation for his future creation.
In the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, JJ Lin wrote a song "Love and Hope" dedicated to the people in the disaster area in just two days and one night, and participated in dozens of charity performances to help the people in the disaster area raise money, and even personally went to the disaster area to help the victims, with a total donation of more than one million yuan and many materials.
As an overseas artist, Bian Xiao was admired for his generosity, which set an example for many mainland stars at that time.
When a reporter asked him why he wrote this song "Love and Hope", JJ Lin said that for music, it should not be just lyrical feelings. I hope this song can make more people hear the power of music, inspire everyone's fighting spirit and the courage of the victims, and tell the people in the disaster area that they are not alone, and he is with them.
JJ Lin loves China culture;
Because he was exposed to Chinese since childhood, he also fell in love with China culture. Cao Cao's creative background comes from JJ Lin's interest in the history of the Three Kingdoms. In this context, JJ Lin entered the Chinese music scene and became an excellent creative singer in a short time, which is well known to people.
