[Edit this paragraph] Journey to Stardom

Brigitte Lin's acting style is natural, simple, restrained and delicate, with a sharp and sexy appearance. She is good at expressing the complex thoughts and emotional ups and downs of the characters. In 21 years, *** has appeared in more than 100 films. She is the only female star in the Hong Kong and Taiwan film industry who can straddle two different film styles: literature and martial arts. She is also the female star who has been popular for the longest time and shines brightest.

This special figure who went from being popular in the 1970s to the 1990s step by step does represent a special fashion history.

Qin Han pointed to Zhang Liren standing in the distance and said, "This one!" But the director thought again and the heroine was thinner and more temperamental. Melancholy, Zhang Liren looks stronger, but Brigitte Lin is more suitable. It seems that Director Song has a unique vision than Qin and Han!
