Joan Lin Fengjiao

There are many women who are ready to leave a successful career for the sake of their family. Taiwanese actress Lin Fengjiao is one of these amazing women. Her whole life was spent in the shadow of a world-famous star - Jackie Chan, with whom they have been together for decades.

Joan Lin Fengjiao was born on June 30, 1953 in Taiwanese Taipei. The baby became the second child in a large family. In total, the parents raised five: four daughters and one son. Lin's childhood was not easy. They lived extremely poorly. At a certain point, the financial situation of the Fengjiao family became so dire that Lin had to leave school and go to work on a farm in order to earn at least food. The girl was only 12 years old.

After a few years, Lin turned into a blooming young girl. Realizing that nature has endowed her with a rare charm, she began to think about an acting career. Soon, the future artist began to attend creative auditions. The initiative turned out to be successful: the producers noticed the beauty and began to invite to auditions.

The girl turned out to be not only pretty, but also gifted. In 1972, 19-year-old Lin got her first role in the film Hero of Chiu Chow. The picture was a great success, and the name of the young debutante was included in the list of young talents of the country.

The 70s were a brilliant start to Lin Fengjiao's career. The actress has starred in dozens of films targeting mainly the Asian market. Mostly Lin starred in films based on the works of Chiung Yao, a popular Taiwanese writer.

Universal recognition was not long in coming. In 1978, the actress was nominated for the prestigious Asian Golden Horse Film Awards for her role in He Never Gives Up. And the next year Fengjiao conquered this height and received the coveted statuette as the best actress.

Her work in the film "The Story of a Small Town" brought her success. Lin played a young, mute woman, whom the protagonist who just got out of prison falls in love with. The drama also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Film.

All these events led to the fact that Lin Fengjiao established herself as one of the best actresses of that era. But at the peak of her career, the woman disappeared from the big screens in order to devote herself to her family after marriage. Only in 2012, the famous comedy action movie "Armor of God - 3", directed by Jackie Chan, appeared in her filmography. He plays the main role in the film - a fighter nicknamed the Asian Hawk, and Lin played his wife.

Lin's meeting with her future spouse happened by chance. She was already a well-known actress in Taiwan, he is a rising star in Hong Kong, he already has many bright roles behind him - in the films Fist of Fury, Drunken Master, A Little Kung Fu.

Jackie was on his way to an interview with Silver World editor Annie Wang. But she came to the meeting not alone, but with actress Lin Fengjiao. The new acquaintance struck the actor's imagination: delicate, fragile, miniature (height 165 cm) - she seemed like a fairy from a fairy tale. He himself did not notice how he initiated new meetings. This is how their romantic relationship began.

Also in his autobiography "I am Lucky," the star recalls that Lin accepted him as he is. The chosen one always laughed at his specific jokes, went to his meetings with friends, dined in cheap eateries, but most importantly, she supported him in failures, shared moments of joy.

All the newspapers wrote about the couple's relationship. Some critics condemned this connection, because Lin was a national favorite, a deep dramatic actress, and Chan was just a simple guy from kung fu fighters. However, Lin did not pay attention to gossip, and soon she told her lover the news of the birth of her first child. The actor was enthusiastic about the message and began to fuss about registering their relationship.

The couple did not have a magnificent wedding. In December 1982, they quickly signed at a Los Angeles restaurant, inviting a familiar priest. The bride was already undergoing demolition and immediately after the "ceremony" went to the hospital, where she gave birth to a healthy boy. The son was named Chang Zumin (born December 3, 1982), now a man who has become a singer and actor, calls himself in the Western manner of Jaycee Chan.

The couple settled in the United States, where Jackie Chan began to appear a lot. Lin left the cinema and, like a true oriental woman, devoted herself entirely to caring for the family. Jaycee went to Santa Monica school, life went on as usual. But not everything in this seemingly harmonious family was smooth - the couple had to overcome a number of trials, testing their feelings for strength.

The loudest scandal related to the personal life of a Chinese action star was his love affair with Chinese actress Elaine Wu Qili. The birth of his illegitimate daughter Etta Wu Zholin was a terrible shock for Jackie Chan's wife. The man recognized the girl as his child, but refused to participate in her upbringing. The actor's fans froze in anticipation of a divorce, but the loving Lin forgave her husband for treason.

Another unpleasant incident with her family occurred in 2014, when the Beijing police arrested Jaycee's only son for six months for drug possession. The mother was shocked to learn about this criminal side of her son's life, but Jaycee wrote her a touching letter in which he repented and promised to improve. The actor himself apologized to fans for the act of the heir.

Note that the fate of the actor's daughter can hardly be called easy. Etta, having matured, made a come-out, recognizing her peculiarity and marrying a girl.

The former actress remains in the shadow of her famous husband. She sometimes accompanies Jackie Chan to the shooting, makes sure that he does not perform difficult stunts, and takes care of him, as befits a faithful loving wife.
