In 2018, the government of her hometown Tangxi Village in Hushan, Fujian built a "women's volleyball spirit" museum by remodeling her former residence, which collected many publications, art works, photos, and personal donations from Chen herself. It is the first women's volleyball museum in China.

She is the Fujianese girl in the 2020 movie Leap.
