When it comes to Li Chen, many people immediately think of the many iconic roles he has played on screen: from Liu Wu in "Extreme Rescue" to Fang Da in "Aftershock," from Li Mu in "The Empress of China" to Cao Pi in "The Advisors Alliance." His image seems ever-changing, showcasing both a tough and a tender side. Behind the scenes, Li Chen is even more enigmatic. It's said that he has a net worth of billions, though we can't verify that, but judging by how often he adds luxury cars to his collection, he's certainly living the high life.

It’s reported that Li Chen’s family ran a driving school when he was a child, and he could drive a car as early as elementary school. He started learning racing at 16 and even became a professional motorcycle racer. To experience the performance of various vehicle types, Li Chen’s rides have ranged from a BMW 3 Series to a Mercedes-Benz E-Class, a Porsche Cayenne, an Audi A8, and eventually to Lamborghinis, Aston Martins, and Rolls-Royces. He reportedly changes cars every six months on average—so often that even he might lose count. In the end, he simply opened his own used car dealership. It’s fair to say Li Chen’s passion for cars borders on obsession.
Racing is a sport Li Chen is passionate about
Recently, Li Chen posted a photo of himself riding a motorcycle on Weibo, with the caption “Eco-friendly travel, let's go for a spin,” which sparked a lot of discussion among fans. How is a motorcycle considered eco-friendly? After some digging, we found out that the motorcycle Li Chen was riding is an electric model from Monroe, featuring an Indian Motorcycle-inspired design, powered by new energy, and sporting a high-end look that matches Li Chen’s persona perfectly. No wonder he’d choose this electric motorcycle over his million-dollar sports cars.
