Dicky Cheung
After "My Fair Princess", Lin starred in a number of successful television series. In 2000 she starred in Hong Kong TVB's production of "The Duke of Mount Deer" with Dicky Cheung, Shu Qi and other well-known artists. In this series, Lin played Princess Jian Ning – a sassy, funny girl. This role demonstrated her acting range, since it differed from the nice, sweet image she had developed from her role in "My Fair Princess". The following year, she starred in "Romance in the Rain", a costume drama based in the 1930s and 1940s, also written by Chiung Yao. The series was a commercial success and recorded the highest ratings of the year. For two consecutive years (2000 and 2001), Lin was included in the Top Ten Most Famous Asian Superstars. The same year, she was selected in fourth place in "Malaysia 2001 Heavenly Kings &amp; Queens".
