He ruined his acting career because of his participation in variety shows, quarreled openly with his ex-girlfriend after the breakup, spread negative rumors about his ex-girlfriend, and chose to leave his fiancée Fan Bingbing when she was in trouble.
Now 45 years old, he has been snubbed by the market and has no way out.
The movie "Wasteland" co-starring Li Chen and Ren Suxi was released in March this year. Despite the joining of the powerful actress Ren Suxi, it is a pity that this did not save the box office slump.
The movie was released for five days and only received 1.7 million box office revenue, which does not seem to be enough to pay Li Chen's salary, let alone the production cost of the film.
According to current trends, the film will most likely not be able to break the 10 million box office mark. In today's world, the actor's salary easily exceeds 10 million, and this crew may lose a lot!
Li Chen played the leading actor, and the box office was weak. However, looking back at the box office of the movies starring Li Chen, it turned out to be as high as 17.8 billion, why is the movie he starring in now weak?
To explain all this, it is necessary to analyze Li Chen's career planning and character, which has long been traced.
Li Chen's family is almost all soldiers, grandparents, grandparents, parents, all of them are soldiers, he grew up in the army since he was a child, which makes Li Chen's body very strong.
At the age of 11, he was selected to play the role of "Laining", and Li Chen, who came into contact with the entertainment industry for the first time, found that he had other options other than being a soldier, and couldn't help but be interested.
At the suggestion of his parents, he, a young man with poor academic Xi grades, entered the Beijing Qunxing Performing Arts School hosted by Lu Liping for Xi.
At the age of 19, he was lucky enough to get a chance to play the role of Jian Ning in the TV series "Seventeen Years Old Don't Cry", thus making a name for himself in the entertainment industry. Subsequently, he frequently played similar student roles, and has not been able to expand other acting paths.
In 1998, he acted in the TV series "The True Colors of the Criminal Police", which marked the first change in his acting career. However, at the same time, Li Chen's thinking deviated.
He wanted to use the money he had already saved up to start a business, but because he had no business experience at all, he quickly lost it and wasted several years of his time. When he returned to acting, he felt very lost.
Li Chen ushered in a turning point in 2006, when he starred in the TV series "Soldier Assault", although he did not star in a big-name actor like Wang Baoqiang, but he also had a lot of scenes, so he became an instant hit.
Although he made some achievements with this TV series, his career soon fell into calm again, and Li Chen began to fall into confusion again.
The agency he belongs to has been winning supporting role resources for him in some big-budget movies, such as "Assembly Number", "Tangshan Da**", etc., but Li Chen's career has always been tepid.
2010 was a new turning point for Li Chen. He met Chen Sicheng through "Soldier Assault" and was invited to participate in the TV series "Beijing Love Story", this cooperation made Tong Liya, Yang Mi, Zhang Xinyi, Zhang Yi and Li Chen popular all over the country.
Li Chen's name also became famous, and then he starred in "Beijing Youth", which was similar to his previous works and successfully continued his popularity.
Li Chen's career development is particularly affected by his emotional life. He and Li Xiaolu fell in love in 2003 because of the drama, but with the end of the crew's filming, the relationship between the two also came to an end, and they parted ways.
Since then, Li Chen has had several relationships one after another, but none of them have lasted long and have not caused too many waves.
In 2012, after being subjected to the paparazzi, Li Chen did not hesitate to announce his relationship with his girlfriend Zhang Xinyu.
Zhang Xinyu has a hot body and a beautiful appearance, while Li Chen is handsome and straight, and the two look very compatible, so there are voices of blessings on the Internet.
After the relationship, Zhang Xinyu is also very happy, and often shares the sweet daily life of the two on the Internet, which seems to be deeply affectionate.
However, the secret was soon noticed by netizens. It turned out that when Zhang Xinyu posted a ** in a show of affection, a heart-shaped stone was displayed on it, which was said to have been given to her by Li Chen.
Li Chen claimed to have picked it up by accident, so he gave it to her. Soon, attentive netizens found the dynamics of similar heart-shaped stones that Li Chen had given to Di Linaer, Liu Yun and others.
His predecessor also joined the ranks of ridicule, and for a time the Internet was full of ridicule for his remarks, which directly led to serious damage to Li Chen's reputation. Then came the news that the two broke up.
Soon after, the two announced their breakup, and Li Chen was rumored to have an affair with Fan Bingbing, and soon after, they officially announced their relationship.
Because Fan Bingbing is an international actress, she is a household name in China, and she has never made her relationship public for many years, so it has attracted widespread attention from people across the country. Seeing them so sweet and loving, everyone also sent blessings.
Zhang Xinyu's friend suddenly interjected to accuse Fan Bingbing and Li Chen's relationship was not pure, which was a big surprise. Fan Bingbing, who was originally infinitely beautiful, was accused of being a third partyThe good times didn't last long.
At this moment, Li Chen posted a response, directly attacking Zhang Xinyu, saying that she was the one who cheated, and this remark directly pushed Zhang Xinyu into the ** whirlpool.
This led to Zhang Xinyu being severely abused in the past two years, his career plummeting, and he was even falsely accused, while Li Chen and Fan Bingbing had a lifelong relationship, and their career was thriving.
In 2018, it was revealed that Fan Bingbing was suspected of tax evasion and tax evasion as high as 9700 million yuan, this news shocked the national audience.
As a well-known star in my country who has gone international, Fan Bingbing was involved in such a scandal, and the amount of money involved was unbelievable. Because of this incident, Fan Bingbing was subjected to soft **.
However, Zhang Xinyu met his true love He Jie, and married him and became a military wife. She proved her innocence by successfully passing the political trial of the army, and made those rumors self-defeating.
Li Chen announced his breakup shortly after Fan Bingbing's accident, and his behavior is worrying.
Due to the serious damage to word of mouth, coupled with the fact that Li Chen has been a resident guest of the variety show "Running Brother", he has lost the mystery of the actor himself for a long time, and the audience is easy to doubt his performance in the drama, so no production company is willing to choose Li Chen again, which has led to the decline of Li Chen's career.
A person's moral character is crucial to his moral cultivation, which in turn is directly related to his lasting success and the impact on his work. So, maybe Li Chen should reflect on his behavior.
