On a recent Beijing event, the 46-year-old actor unveiled the backdrop of his latest TV series, Chinese-style Relationship.
Revolving on the Chinese recognition of guanxi, or networking, the 36-episode series explores the different ways of thinking between the West and East, through the perspectives from a middle-aged official and an overseas-educated designer.
The series will run on Beijing Satellite TV from Sept 8, with two episodes every night.
Chen said the script impressed him, for it applies a dark-humor narration to examine the middle-age crisis and ordinary people's struggles.
Chen won the best actor and best new director awards at the Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival for his directorial debut, A Fool, in which he plays the protagonist.
