Chen Sisters

Relationship to Zhang Zhehan

The Chen sisters are from Sanming, Fujian 福建三明 and currently live in Shenzhen. They have a business relationship with Zhang Zhehan's mother.

Shortly after 813, fans were misled to believe that one or both of the Chen sisters are related to Zhang Zhehan's mother. Chen Liying herself seems to have helped perpetuate this rumor. The false rumor that Zhang's father's last name is Zhao also appears to have come from her.

In his interview with Li Xuezheng in Dec 2021, Zhang Zhehan mentioned that funeral wreaths were sent to the teashop. Fans later learned in the latter half of 2022 that the Chens had purchased the funeral wreaths themselves, then took photos to send to Zhang's mother, inducing guilt for the trouble that her son apparently caused. The Chens also gave the address for the Bao Deng Yuan factory to antis.

A phone number that Zhang's mother previously used now belongs to Chen Liying, as well as another number that uses Zhang's mother photo as its profile in WeChat. The time period in which the first phone number was used by Zhang's mother in her business coincides with the time period in which her Meipian and Weibo accounts were registered.

A personal Weibo account owned by Chen Liying followed Wang Peiwen's side account, that is suspected to be run by Sophie. It also follows two virtual idols. Chen's account previously liked a post expressing lust for Gong Jun's body. When this account was exposed on Aug 15, 2022, it immediately unfollowed the Wang Peiwen account. It also changed its profile photo, but apparently did not know how to delete profile photo history.

This account has never liked any of Li Xuezheng's posts, not even the letter that he posted from Zhang Zhehan's mother.

The Chens own multiple Netease music accounts that they registered using both their own phone number and one that they told fans belongs to ZMM. All share similar usernames.

The Chens are friends with the wife of the fake uncle, who is an amateur playwright with the last name Du 杜.

Business Activities

The Chen sisters own a number of businesses.

Teashop

The Chens operated a franchise Bao Dengyuan retail storefront in Nanshan District, Shenzhen. They registered a Weibo account for this store on Aug 15, 2021, the same day that CAPA issued their ban notice for Zhang Zhehan.

This store 深圳市南山区诗远茶店 was registered on Sept 27, 2020 and solely owned by Chen Liying 陈丽英. It was deregistered on Nov 8, 2021. A new store 深圳市圆梦启航茶叶有限公司 was registered on Sept 26, 2021 and jointly owned by Chen Qunying 陈群英 and Chen Bingjun 陈冰君.

One of the Chen sisters, believed to be Chen Liying, has appeared in video advertisements posted on the store's social media.

In May 2022, the Chens closed the retail storefront and opened a new teahouse/event space on the 19th floor of an office building in the Bao'an District.

The Chens used their personal phone numbers to register WeChat customer service accounts for the teashop and to accept deposits for pre-release teaware. Both Chen Liying and Chen Bingjun's phone numbers were used.

In August 2022, the teashop was fined 900RMB for false advertising by the Shenzhen Market Authorities. The person in charge is listed as Chen Qunying 陈群英. In December 2022, they were fined 5000RMB for violating food manufacturing regulations.

In the course of the infighting that began in 2022, ZSJ fans revealed that after 813 the (old) teashop was often closed due to harassment. However, rather contradictorily, the Chens posted their own phone number on the teashop's front door. Thus many fans had her number, but supposedly she does not want to be bothered by fans.

Chen Children

The Chen children have their mother's last name as their parents are divorced.
