Once ranked alongside Teresa Teng and Fong Fei-Fei as one of the “Three Great Queens of Mandarin Pop,” Jenny (Zhen Ni) achieved remarkable success with classic hits such as “The Oath.” She married Fu Sheng in 1976, and four years after her husband’s passing, gave birth to daughter Melody Zhen Jiaping through cryopreserved sperm technology. Now 39, Melody has inherited her mother’s musical talent and currently works in the United States as a backstage producer for international superstars’ concerts.
In recent years, Jenny, known for her directness and sense of justice, has earned the title of “music industry disciplinarian.” Although she has been away from the limelight for many years, she still pays close attention to the entertainment industry and current affairs, often voicing sharp opinions on social media. Recently, she shared a video of herself driving a lawnmower, writing emotionally: “Too much drama and nonsense… mowing the grass, feeding the chickens, planting flowers, enjoying a good cup of coffee, watching dramas, humming tunes, reading books—everything is positive energy. I can do it, so can you.” Her words reveal her understanding of the entertainment industry’s turbulence and her choice to stay away from complicated social entanglements.
Jenny now resides in the “Xituwa Farm” in Longtan District, Taoyuan City, Taiwan. More than ten years ago, she invested in this plot of land, which spans over 10,000 ping (about 3.3 hectares), and named it by deconstructing the character “Zhen.” She confided that her greatest desire in retiring to the countryside is to live a simple life without makeup or hairstyling, because the world of plants and animals is relatively pure—without malice and without fear of being misunderstood. #
