Presently, Lin Xinru earned herself a long, long vacation b/c of SARS.Went to live w/ relatives in Japan for more than 20 days, also joined a gym, each day w/o makeup on, went bike riding as a form of exercise, enjoying a normal life. The only thing was when she saw the street full of beautiful Japanese women in splendid attire, Lin Xinru suspected will everybody think that she "came from the countryside"?
Lin Xinru usually does not like to exercise, also does not sweat much [or perspires very little], this time finally have something to show from the exercise, the [shape of] face she most worry about got smaller. At the time the company informed her it was time to go home, & prepare for work, then came news that filming has been postponed because of SARS, this allowed Lin Xinru to remain [or be detained] in Taiwan, becoming an unemployed person. Everyone she meets, she'll shout loudly: "I'm currently unemployed!"
Idle w/ nothing to do, w/ curiosity urging her on, tried out the current fab, crystal [or quartz] nails, took nearly 7 hours of her time to complete. With a frank & straightforward personality, she already lost patience, moving about in the chair, w/ the nails completed not even for a day, she already lost the little silver links on the nails. Although Lin Xinru praise the fine worksmanship of the crystal nails, it also allowed her to repeatedly complain that, "Am I disabled?" Because when she pressed the numbers on her cell phone, she couldn't get them right.
In addition, Lin Xinru if not going on variety shows to have fun, then it's going out w/ friends from junior & senior high school to eat & chat. Only thing was, some of her friends already are married, the others have steady boyfriends, & when it was time to leave, each pair would leave together, Lin Xinru could only have "the male schoolmate w/o a date" to take her home.

Being the two shores'[meaning China & TW] hightest paid Taiwan female star, Lin Xinru's personal relationships are the audiences' focal point. Although she has a strong dislike of the media continuously pursuing all matters concerning Stanley Tong, Lin Xinru fully understands what the media and audiences are thinking in their minds. She said dignifiedly: "Frankly speaking [or To be honest], I also very much want to know what Andy Lau is up to when he has nothing to do?" When her own story appears on the layouts of newspapers, Lin Xinru deeply felt a public figure's lost of freedom. The other day, on a fan website established for her, left this message "taking a stroll means to be in love, going abroad is to say spending money extravagantly, the media just loves to control other people's lives!" She said ill-humoredly, "I have to stay in Japan for this many days, why buy a big pile of stuff to put in the room? I pass through the same window displays everyday, already got tired of looking at those nice-looking clothes."
Sharing from her friends' experiences, Lin Xinru has no intention of getting married. A good friend who just got married in March told her "marriage really is love's grave yard", Lin Xinru loudly replied, "told you not to get married!" Lin Xinru's principle of not marrying, besides her friend's experience, also has other worries. She said, "I'm currently not going steady w/ anyone, but I have a lot of people to go out on dates with, there are ones to see a movie with, ones to have dinner with, ones to go out & play with, it's a 'hybrid [mixed] association' la, ay-yo, that sounds kind of awful[repulsive]!"
If it's Kimura Takuya, I would marry immediately.
Q: Why don't you look forward to marriage?
A: If after we have quarrelled & also have to live in the same place, isn't that annoying? If after quarrelling & can go back to each others respective homes, cool off & forget about it, it's better to maintain a distance. Moreover, I have to spend long periods of time in China filming, each movie takes place in extremely remote locations. It's very difficult for me to live in one city, frankly speaking, being in love w/ me is to see very little of me. Living together is really troublesome, having a child is even more annoying[repugnant], who wants to have a baby?"
Q: When do you think it's the right time to pursue a stable relationship?
A: I think at the present it's still too early, I'm still young! Once I start to fall in love, I will devote all my heart into it, hope that he'll always be at my side, perhaps calling him on the phone to ask where he is at, but if my boyfriend & a group of friends asks me out simultaneously, then I will choose my friends over my boyfriend, I know I don't have a mature attitude when it comes to relationships, therefore forget about it. Of all my friends, two have already been married. One just got married this March, then complained that "marriage is a love relationship's grave yard", but did you know? She and her boyfriend dated for 8 years before walking down the aisle! The others are not married, all of them have steady boyfriends. Each time we go out & play, if it's not tagging their boyfriends along, then it's continuously making phone calls to their boyfriends to report on their whereabouts, it's really very tiring.
Q: In your mind, do you still look forward to [or long for] the romantic feeling?
A: Certainly will. I think that, holding hands & taking nightly strolls with one's boyfriend, having a meal together, is the happiest thing to do!"
Q: What do you look for in a mate?
A: They haven't changed at all! Tall, handsome, rich! Too bad such a man does not exist in this world. To test if he's rich is very simple, will know the answer just by bringing him to our gatherings for a few times & see if he has the ability to pay for the check, ha-ha. Height-wise, don't think he can be shorter than me? Appearance....if it's Kimura Takuya, I will marry immediately! Too bad he is already the father of two children. If is not Kimura Takuya, Yuan Bin may be considered.
I pay a lot of attention to a man's shoes and his fingernails, the nails must be clean, can't have black marks/dirt in them. How a man matches his shoes will diclose his personal status, do you think a pair of black leather shoes can be matched w/ white socks? Ah! Did I just scold about 90% go to work force?
Q: Are you really annoyed w/ children?
A: Hmm....I'm afraid of kids w/ nonstop crying, I only like adorable ones, can pinch their cheeks. If possible, I want to have three kids, it's best if the oldest one is a brother, the second & third child both be little sisters. I longed for since childhood that I'm that second child, have an older brother to look after me, & also ayounger sister to play with. I will definitely dress my child up attractively, take him/her out for walks, but only to show off, ha ha! Moreover, my child will certainly be very attractive, b/c his old man is also very handsome!
Q: You have made so many films but have not start relationships w/ any of the male leads, how are you going to meet new friends this way?
A: Each actor who cooperated with me, would afterwards shout loudly, "I have been deceived!" My screen image and & real-life image are completely different, they all said that I'm like a guy. When looking at the script they can fantasize, but when they see me, they don't fantasize anymore.
To be honest, meeting new friends can be very difficult, my friends don't dare too much to introduce guys to me, they think that there's too much pressure. Because I have my own financial capabilities, can't introduce ones that are too poor for me, but rich businessmen doesn't suit my circle of friends; plus I'm busy w/ filming, simply did not even participate in any parties. Surprised? Even though there are lots of parties in Shanghai. You see me still going out to play w/ my friends from junior & senior high school. I have not been sealed up from my own social circle, it's just that I really don't have the opportunities.
Q: You respond very little to your own rumors, why?
A: I will choose to respond once, then will not respond anymore. I think that since bothmale & female are unmarried, anything can happen.
