In 2004 & 2005, she was featured in two seasons of Lee The Blues Jeans
advertisement with Stanley Huang. The advert song she composed 'Live in

In 2009, Chen released her latest album Immortal , recorded unorthodoxly in
the wardrobe of her own chamber but not in a proper studio and mastered by
Grammy Award winner Bernie Grundman. The album was awarded one of the Top 10
Selling Mandarin Albums of the Year at the 2009 IFPI Hong Kong Album Sales
Awards, presented by the Hong Kong branch of IFPI. Back from later 2008,
Chen started holding her concert tour, with the same theme as the new album
Immortal. The tour continues around Taiwan, China Mainland, Hong Kong,
Macau, Singapore, and she held a concert for the very first time in
Melbourne on March 11, 2011.
Being the first female singer-composer to perform on the stage of Taipei
Arena, she used to remind people to pursue their ambitions boldly and to
always dream for a better tomorrow. She said, "Perhaps there are people
feeling themselves fragile, insignificant and vulnerable, but they might be
the sun that shines for the others, just as the heat of the Sun though
unapproachable yet it guards the mother earth from afar even at night; life
might not be smooth sailing for everyone in all stages, but we should always
embrace hopes for a better tomorrow."
