"Lin Wan is dead. Is it worthy of sympathy? No. Please take a look at the circumstances of his death - heavy smoke, nude photos, pulp novels, and sixty-six. This is the Yintan Xiaosheng you were once familiar with!" - 1928.10.16 "Yintan Weekly" special issue on Lin Wan's death "Lin Wan's death heralds the end of the old era in the Chinese film industry. Under the call of health and beauty, he was finally abandoned by the audience." ——1931.10.20 "Camera" Volume 2 Issue 9 "Who still remembers the early actor Lin Wan? Not long ago, a reader wrote to this newspaper, willing to pay a high price in exchange for his photos. The author thinks this is meaningless because he is a degenerate. In the past, he once had the ridiculous statement that 'all the beauties in the world are my wives'. In Yipinxiang No. 66, He dreamed of pink dreams every night..." ——"New Film World" Volume 6, Issue 20, March 15, 1933 "Lin Wan was a niche actor in the early days of the Chinese film industry. He first made advertising films for the British American Tobacco Company, and later transferred out. He did not have a fixed residence in Shanghai, and often opened a hotel room in the Yipinxiang Hotel. There was always someone to provide housing and rent, including female celebrities, concubines, and even dancers. In Peiping, he was imprisoned for seducing women, which was worse than the villain in the movie. He was destined to die because of his unsightly behavior. " ——1933.4.29 "Xinghai Daily" Lu Mei threw down the old newspaper and lit a cigarette without putting it to his lips, just staring at the red point. For him to pretend to be such a star... It sounds like he's a little bit like that. *The story begins in 1933 and is mainly about movies. It is semi-fictional. For the sake of respect, it will not mention the real big stars in history.
