In 1972, at age 19, Lin starred in her first film, The Hero of Chiu Chow [zh] (also known as Hero of Waterfront), a Kung fu film. Many of her films are based on the novels of Chiung Yao.

Lin, together with Charlie Chin and Chin Han and Brigitte Lin, were the biggest names in the Taiwanese and Hong Kong cinema industries in the 1970s. Dubbed the "Two Chins, Two Lins" (二秦二林) by the media, they were known for starring in several box-office hits, many of which were adaptations of Chiung Yao's novels.[1]

In 1979, she won Best Leading Actress at the 16th Golden Horse Awards for her performance in The Story of a Small Town.[2] During her 10-year career, Lin appeared in more than 70 films.
