When Liu Yifei was 5 years old, Chen Jinfei visited her home for the first time and was deeply attracted by this lively and lovely little girl. When Liu Yifei sweetly called him "Dad", Chen Jinfei's heart softened and expressed his wish to have such a daughter.
Since then, Chen Jinfei has treated Liu Yifei as his daughter and loves her very much. Every Spring Festival, Chen Jinfei will personally prepare New Year's money and gifts for Liu Yifei, as long as Liu Yifei makes small requests, Chen Jinfei never hesitates to meet them.
Liu Yifei is also very attached to Uncle Chen Jinfei and regards him as her closest elder. The two established a father-daughter deep relationship, and Chen Jinfei became an important part of Liu Yifei's life.
At the age of 15, Liu Yifei had a dream of becoming an actor and decided to leave the United States and return to China for development. Upon learning of this news, Chen Jinfei immediately expressed his full support, and began to use his network resources in the entertainment industry to help Liu Yifei realize his dream.
He spent a lot of money to set up a brokerage company "Red Star Dock" in Beijing that specializes in serving Liu Yifei, and hired a number of senior brokers to help Liu Yifei connect with resources. Under Chen Jinfei's operation, Liu Yifei soon became the leading actor in several important TV series, such as the officialdom drama "The Last Night of the Rising Sun" and the costume drama "Dragon Babu", and successfully became one of the first-line actresses.
Every time she gets a new role or resource, Liu Yifei will excitedly call home to report "Dad", Chen Jinfei listens to her daughter's voice, and she also sincerely feels relieved and happy.
With Chen Jinfei's full support, Liu Yifei has achieved unimaginable rapid growth in the entertainment industry, and she is sincerely grateful to Chen Jinfei for caring for her like a father.
In 2005, Chen Jinfei planned to celebrate Liu Yifei's 18th birthday. He chose to book the largest banquet hall at the most luxurious state guesthouse in Beijing, and invited a number of A-list stars to help out, including the popular student Lin Zhiying and the famous director Zhang Yimou.
The on-site decoration was very luxurious and high-end, and the guests from all walks of life were full of praise for Chen Jinfei's hospitality. At the beginning, Chen Jinfei took Liu Yifei's hand and slowly walked onto the stage, and made an opening speech under the attention of everyone, expressing his love for Liu Yifei as his own daughter.
Then, Liu Yifei made a wish to be 18 years old with the blessing of her friends and mentor. Lin Zhiying also sang the theme song of the movie "The City is Full of Golden Armor" for her.
The grand coming-of-age ceremony opened the door to mature women for Liu Yifei, and strengthened her determination to become an outstanding actress. Chen Jinfei also said in his speech that he would fully support Liu Yifei in pursuing his acting dream.
In 2015, Liu Yifei fell in love with the actor Song Chengxian in the movie "The Third Love", and after the filming, the two officially confirmed their relationship and publicly announced the relationship.
For a time, Liu Yifei became a hot topic in the entertainment industry. However, after Chen Jinfei learned the news of Liu Yifei's love, his heart ached faintly. He understands that Liu Yifei, who he has always regarded as his own daughter, will eventually become a wife and a mother, and it is impossible to stay in his arms forever.
Liu Yifei also began to appear by Song Chengxian's side frequently, and no longer went home to visit Chen Jinfei as often as before. Chen Jinfei felt that the focus of Liu Yifei's life had shifted, and the connection between the two was not as close as before.
Although Liu Yifei will still greet Chen Jinfei on the holiday, she can't return to the intimate situation of father and daughter. Chen Jinfei realized that Liu Yifei was bound to leave him to build his own family, and he gradually put more effort into his career, and the relationship between the two quietly became estranged in the passage of time.
In 2015, a girl named Yang Caiyu gradually entered Chen Jinfei's life. She and Chen Jinfei often appear in the same restaurant or bar, and the relationship between the two seems to be very close.
Soon after Liu Yifei and Song Chengxian's relationship was exposed, Yang Caiyu took Liu Yifei's place and successfully became Chen Jinfei's new favorite. With the help of Chen Jinfei, Yang Caiyu soon won the important role "Ding Ding" played in Feng Xiaogang's new film "Fanghua", and made great progress in his career.
Yang Caiyu also moved into Chen Jinfei's mansion, and when taking photos of Cupid, he deliberately chose the same location that Liu Yifei had taken. These actions are undoubtedly declaring to the outside world that she has successfully become the most important girl in Chen Jinfei's heart.
Liu Yifei felt a strong sense of crisis about this, and she was afraid that she would be completely replaced in Chen Jinfei's heart. When she saw the photo of Yang Caiyu staying in the mansion, Liu Yifei's heart seemed to be cut open by a sharp blade, and Chen Jinfei's love for her seemed to no longer exist.
After realizing that she was drifting away from Chen Jinfei, Liu Yifei chose to fly solo, no longer relying on Chen Jinfei's resources to help, but relying on her own strength to open up her popularity and popularity.
She chose a number of high-quality costume dramas, such as "To a Windy Place" with Li Xian, and "Menghualu" with Zhan Jun, which allowed the audience to re-see her outstanding acting skills.
Liu Yifei no longer deliberately pursues resources and exposure, but devotes herself to character building, using interpretation to present the posture and charm of different characters.
Although Liu Yifei's exposure rate is not as high as before, she has received positive comments from a large number of fans, and she has also imperceptibly accumulated independent commercial value.
In recent years, Liu Yifei has also reached cooperation with a number of film and television companies and served as a spokesperson for the brand. With her solid acting skills and charm, Liu Yifei has regained attention and has successfully transformed into a first-line actress.
She is no longer an actor who can only rely on Chen Jinfei to become popular in the past, but relies on her real skills to stand on the cusp of the entertainment industry.
In 2022, Liu Yifei became the brand ambassador of the Italian luxury brand Bulgari in China. However, in July of the same year, Bulgari took the wrong step of challenging China's sovereignty in its marketing to Taiwan, treating Taiwan as a country, which caused strong controversy.
As the spokesperson of Bulgari, Liu Yifei never made a statement and remained silent. Because she has American citizenship, Liu Yifei quickly became the focus of national sentiment and patriotism discussions, and was criticized by netizens for being just a foreigner and lacking the sense of national identity and responsibility that Chinese should have.
Liu Yifei felt helpless about this, her American citizenship was purely accommodated by working with her mother many years ago, not out of denial of China. As a public figure who grew up in China, she certainly has feelings for her motherland in her heart.
However, due to work limitations, it is difficult for Liu Yifei to publicly express her stance against Bulgari. This turmoil made Liu Yifei realize that her words and deeds are related to the overall situation of the nation, and she must not only consider personal interests, but also act more cautiously in order to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.
When Liu Yifei was caught in the Bulgari turmoil and couldn't justify herself, her fans said that if she could still get Chen Jinfei's blessing, Liu Yifei would not face such an embarrassing situation.
After all, Chen Jinfei once pampered and cared for Liu Yifei in a high-profile manner, helping her gain a firm foothold in the entertainment industry. However, as the relationship between the two gradually drifted apart and Liu Yifei grew into an actress in her own right, it was not easy to regain the former father-daughter friendship.
Chen Jinfei is unlikely to stand up for Liu Yifei again. And Yang Caiyu, who once replaced Liu Yifei as the new favorite, although he was favored for a while, it was difficult to compare with Liu Yifei after all.
Over the years, the intricate relationship between Chen Jinfei, Liu Yifei and Yang Caiyu has not been unraveled, and it is still a topic of speculation from the outside world. However, after experiencing this turmoil, Liu Yifei became more mature and confident.
Relying on her unremitting efforts, she has successfully transformed into a powerful first-line actress, and she can continue to shine in the entertainment industry without relying on anyone's protection. She will continue to grow into an outstanding representative actor with a more dazzling attitude.
