But now 54-year-old Lin Jiadong is still single, unmarried and has no children.
Over the years, Lin Jiadong has a face full of vicissitudes. What has he experienced?
When it comes to Lin Jiadong, everyone must be familiar with it. He is always following behind the king Andy Lau.

Where Andy Lau shines, he shines like a star.
That's right, the person who can get along with Andy Lau is naturally someone who has a certain relationship with him, and he must be someone who has great trust from Andy Lau.
Lin Jiadong is probably the lucky one. How many people beg Andy Lau for guidance or help, but why does he get the attention?

When Lam Jiadong debuted, it was the glorious period of the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Leslie Cheung, Alan Tam, and Anita Mui gradually retired, and the four kings represented by Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Lai Lai, and Aaron Kwok rose again.
Lin Jiadong was originally just a clerk in a company. When he saw that TVB was recruiting artist training courses, he signed up.
But after two exams, Lin Jiadong was admitted. He had been interested in imitating the performances of people in the drama since he was watching TV. Now that he really wants to act on TV, he feels extremely excited.
But the reality is ruthless. Although he obtained the qualification to enter TVB TV station to perform, in the first few years, Lin Jiadong did not have many opportunities, and he often appeared in some minor roles.
Lin Jiadong has experienced this kind of life for about seven years, but opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, and gold will always shine.
In 1995, Lam Jiadong imitated Jacky Cheung in "Entertainment Transfer", and he was very similar. Therefore, he won the title of "Top Ten Most Popular TV Artists" and attracted the attention of senior executives.
After Lin Jiadong became famous, he began to get a lot of film appointments. TVB assigned him heavier roles and more scenes.
In 1999, Lin Jiadong starred in the TV series "Tea Is Strong in My Hometown", which received a high ratings of 38 points. Lin Jiadong became an instant star. After ten years of hard work, he finally made him shine.
However, Lin Jiadong, who has just become famous, is about to expire his contract with his employer TVB. Where to go is another major decision in his life.
Under the recommendation of his senior Wan Ziliang, Lin Jiadong joined Andy Lau's company and became its artist.
But after joining the company, Andy Lau did not let him do more movies. The company only gave him a basic living wage.
He couldn't understand why Andy Lau treated him like this. Later he found out that Andy Lau was trying to get rid of the "TV smell" from him.
Indeed, in the past ten years that Lam Jiadong has been at TVB, he has acted in TV series, while Andy Lau's company mainly produces movies.
If Lin Jiadong participated in a movie at this time, it would definitely not be suitable. It would be better to settle down and concentrate on studying before starting.
Facts also proved that Andy Lau was right. In the movie "Love is Like a Dream", Lam Jiadong, who played the role of Wang Yifei, was immediately nominated for the Best Supporting Actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards.
Just after switching from television to movies, Lin Jiadong has already had his first taste of receiving awards, which proves that he has chosen the right direction.
In 2005, Lam Jiadong played an impressive Dongguan boy in the movie "Underworld: Dragon City Years".
After Lin Jiadong was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in "Ip Man" and "Chill", his acting skills have already been revealed.
In 2012, Lin Jiadong left Andy Lau's company and officially went solo. This may be because Andy Lau thought that he could stand alone, so he let him go.
In 2013, Lin Jiadong began to star in movies. After 24 years in the entertainment industry, he finally rose to the level of a powerful actor.
In 2016, Lam Jiadong starred in the movie "A Big Tree Catches the Wind" together with Jordan Chan and Simon Yam. His role as Ji Zhengxiong won him the Best Actor Award at the 36th Hong Kong Film Awards and he was officially crowned emperor.
html After more than 120 years of hard work, Lin Jiadong finally shined. At this time, he was already over fifty years old. Looking back, it was not easy.
