On 12/30/2006 Jimmy Lin was in China doing photo shoots for a line of clothing. He expressed his wishes for the new year, which is to continue to work in movies, tv, music, and racing. As for his love life, he will get married before 35.

Besides being an entertainer, Jimmy is a renowed racer. His racing team won 3rd place in 2006 China Rally Races. He is very proud of this accompishment. "Because our team was formed only a year ago." As for the new year, he will continue to participate in races. He said that he got more accompishments in racing than in the entertainment industry. "Because there is only one winner in races. There are so many awards in the music industry. My biggest wish is to get the championship in racing." There are many actors who like racing. Has racing become a hobby among them? Jimmy said it ain't so because racing is not an easy sports. "I have to put in a lot of energy and time. I have to decline many job offers to participate in races. I don't think many actors would do that."

Since Jimmy broke up with Ruby Lin, his love life has been an interest to many. He said, "I will get married before 35. Now I want to concentrate on work." Does he have a love interest? He said, "Not yet. Still waiting. Haven't met her yet." He said that he would like his OH to support his racing career and his busy schedule. When asked whether he has contacts with Ruby, he said coldly, "We still do."

Get married before 35? Isn't Jimmy turning 33 this year? I wonder how long he's had this goal 'cause the clock's a-ticking. Maybe he'll end up falling head over heels for someone soon and end up getting married by his set deadline.

What does "OH" stand for? I sure hope he finds that supportive someone. Hmm, he replied in a cold manner, eh? Interesting.

So is this from your own personal collection, relive? By the way, have you ever met Jimmy in person?

Was this photo for a specific event? When was it taken?

"OH" - Other Half, a.k.a, his wife/gf.
"He said coldly". Yep, that's a direct translation. I think he is sick of reports asking him about Ruby over and over again.

It is funny for him to set a date for marriage. What if he hasn't found anyone yet. Is he just going to marry the next woman who comes along?

That's what i was thinking. Either that or he'll just have to choose a later deadline. Maybe add another 3 to 5 years or something. I can't imagine just jumping into something like that without giving it some time to see if she's "the one." Unless, it's love at first sight.

Not specified. I guess it was his break time with his friends.

So is this from your own personal collection, relive? By the way, have you ever met Jimmy in person?

Yes, my friend gave me.

I met him in person twice in 1993 and 2000. Jimmy looked gorgeous in person.

Fans Magazine 1/2007

Fang yang De Xing Xing by Jimmy Lin and "Korean New Star of the Year"
Liu He Na is this Spring's new series. Jimmy turned down several
Chinese ancient series to star in this series. This will be his attempt
of image-changing.

This series has a different style among today's super young idol series.
The storyline is consistant with San Lap's romantic idol theme. It is
not too far from everday life. There will also be racing scenes,
stylish jewelries, and beautiful sceneries. There is a reason to
get Jimmy to star in this series because he is a professional racer and
has won many winner's cups in races. This series is the first with a
Korean star. The director is from Hong Kong. He will film it
like a film.

This is Jimmy's first modern series. He is the 2nd young master of the
E. Shine Corporation. He is rebellious with outrageous acts. He can
sacrifice all for love and can destroy all after he loses love. He dares
to love and hate and can't be controlled. Jimmy turned down Liao Zhai 2
and other ancient series to be in this series. He said that he has
never starred in a modern series before. He wants to try something new.

Liu He Na screen tested 5 time before she signed on. San Lap's Chen Yu
San kept on praising Liu. Liu is beautiful and clean on camera. Chen
saw her picture in a magazine. She was filming the movie "The Sixth
Exit". Li Wei has a role as a movie star. San Lap will write a new
series for him in 2007. The model Hong Xiao Ling also has the role of a
bad girl.

-------------------

Jimmy's character can operator any motor vechicles: cars, trucks, earth
movers. His special skill is rebellion and never listens to his father.

Liu He Na's character is a Cinderella who has to support herself by
committing crimes. Her special skill is cheating and feigning innocence after
she is caught. She has served jail time. The first time she and Jimmy
meet is when they both have handcuffs on. It will be explosive.

Thank you so much, ladycoco.
I am happy to read it.

I will post it at other places as well.

This storyline is from the official San Lap's site:

http://www.settv.com.tw/metro/m105/school/index.html

Now I am not sure if this story has a happy or tragic ending. Is Jimmy really going to end up with LHN? It is a very interesting story, quite complicated.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Liu He Na is a 24 year old ex-felon on probation. She went to jail for
her lover. On the day of her release she goes to a 6 star hotel to buy
a gift for her lover.

Today is the wedding of E.SHINE Corporation's William Lap (son #1) and
Hong Xiao Ling's wedding. HXL is Jimmy Lin (son #2) ex-girlfriend. His late
mother's heirloom, the Queen Mary, a blue diamond, is also to be
auctioned off today. Jimmy tried to avoid the wedding but was forced to
return to Taiwan. He slips into the bride's room and kisses HXL. He
then steals the Queen Mary, not wanting it to be auctioned and also to
avenge HXL's betrayal.

The Queen mary is lost. The wedding is cancelled. Security mistake Liu
as the thief and put handcuffs on her. Jimmy doesn't want an innocent
girl to take the blame so he flees with her. Liu puts the other side of
the handcuff on him. They run from the scene with handcuffs on.

Liu is afraid that Jimmy will harm her so she calls her lover for help.
He tells her he is already married and hangs up on her. During the
argument his wife goes into labor. Liu is mad and lies about Jimmy
being her boyfriend and they are getting married soon. Jimmy and Liu
get drunk after losing their lovers on the same day.

Liu unlocks the handcuff, a skill she picks up in jail, before she
collapses. Jimmy takes the drunk Liu to a hotel and is mistaken as a
rapist. The hotel manager calls the police.

Jimmy's family comes to bail him out and he returns the Queen Mary
keeping a small blue diamond for himself. Liu is also released. Jimmy
decides to leave with Liu to Tomorrow's Village to find life's "10,000
prossibilities".

Because of Jimmy's outrageous behavior, E. Shine Corporation is put into a
tailspin. Management demands that William Lap find the Queen Mary
before a deadline. Paparazzi backmails him with a photo of his fiancee
kissing his brother on his wedding day. He didn't know about their
relationship and begins to doubt who she really loves.

Jimmy and Liu arrive at Tomorrow Village and are kidnapped for payment
on bad debts. They flee on a stolen motorbike with broken brakes and
run into a pile of durian, the entire harvest of the village. Villagers
force them to sign a loan contract for payment.

Liu's uncle owe a lot of gambling debts. Jimmy suggests that they will
race. If he wins the debt will be forgiven. He wins and becomes the hero
of the village. Liu starts to have feelings for Jimmy but her
girlfriend asks her to set her up with him.

Meanwhile, another guy asks Jimmy to set him up with Liu. The ferris
wheel that Jimmy and Liu are on breaks and they are stuck in the air
from day to night. They fall in love and Jimmy promises that he will
get her a real diamond.

Jimmy enters the Mr Durian contest and wins. His picture appears in the
newspaper and his identity is exposed. Liu is shocked to learn the
truth. HXL finds out that Jimmy has fallen in love with an ex-felon and
gets very jealous. William Lap, her fiance, realizes that she is still
in love with his brother so he breaks off the engagement.

Jimmy begs Liu for forgiveness and accepts his love and they reconcile.
However, Jimmy's father force him to leave her. Jimmy cuts off all ties
with his father and is willing to spend the rest of his life in the
village as a mechanics. Jimmy's father cut off all financial supports.

Liu's ex-lover's daughter needs surgery. He asks Liu to borrow money
from Jimmy's family. She then realizes the gulf between Jimmy and her.
She is ready to give him up so he can have a better future. However,
Jimmy misunderstands her and returns home in rage. He seems to have
lost his soul after he returns home. His older brother set up a meeting
with Liu to talk to her about Jimmy. On the way to the meeting he is
killed in a car accident. Jimmy blames Liu for his brother's death and
hates her.

Jimmy's characters change after the death and goes to work for his
father. He becomes a ruthless workaholic businessman. Because of guilt
towards his brother he treats HXL, his brother's ex-fiancee, well and tries to
satisfy her every needs. HXL helps him in his work thinking that she
will marry him one day.

Jimmy's hatred for Liu is as deep as his love for her. When he thinks
of the good time he has with her he wants revenge. If he can meet her
again he will make her life miserable to avenge her betrayal...

Thank you so much ladycoco.

I posted it at other places.

I hope the kissing scenes would be hotter than this.

Thanks for all of the pix and news of Jimmy. By the way, didn't Jimmy say that he planned to get married AFTER 35? Why is it before now?? Did he change his mind??

WHAT, Jimmy turned down several ancient series to be in this one?? AH!! I would rather he be in another ancient series since I love those!! But I guess it is good that he has a break from ancient series because I don't want him to get injured again.... I hope that he will consider being in ancient series again one day...

I guess his father wants to marry him off asap.

Jimmy wants to take a break from ancient series. He hates those wigs. It will be interesting to see him in a kissing/sex scene.

Explosive huh? This sounds like it's going to be a very intense series.

I prefer Jimmy in ancient series too. Even though he's not into wearing those wigs, i like how they make it more natural-looking for him, which makes him look pretty good. Not everyone gets the more natural hair look. It would've been cool to see him in another Liao Zhai story for Liao Zhai 2.

I'm more into watching ancient series too but i recently started watching a modern one so maybe this might turn out into a rather interesting series.

[beanybeans]

Thank you so much ladycoco.

I hope the kissing scenes would be hotter than this.

I've never seen Wolf. So was this kissing scene pretty long? Did she end up kissing him back? Was there more than one kissing scene with Jimmy?
