Micki Chen, who was known in large parts of Denmark after his participation in ‘The big bagedyst’ back in 2015, have sweaty palms just for the time being.
To the DR he says that he has taken a big decision and chosen to say her job at Danish Crown, with which he has had for nearly seven years, and instead focus on establishing a career in tv.
– It is a big decision, I have taken, and it has taken a year and a half to get there. I found out that I had to do it, and that I had to take the chance, otherwise I would regret it, he says to Ekstra Bladet, and continues:
– I am happy with the job I have. I have been there six and a half years, and I have a great boss that has given me the space to do a lot of other things beside, but now is the time to let me take the chance and go all in on it here, says he on.

After ‘The big bagedyst’, it was also quickly clear to Micki Chen, that he was far from being finished with that low screen, and since then, he has been instrumental in the programs ‘Ultra Factor’, ‘Ultra black kageshow’ and ‘5. gear’ and ‘dinner with…’.
– When I signed up to ‘The big bagedyst’, it was because it sounded fun and exciting. But I was so caught of making tv, I had never thought. I quickly got a number of cool opportunities afterwards – for example, ‘Ultra Factor’, and I found just out that it is there to make tv, it is hammerfedt, says Micki Chen.
Micki Chen hopes that he can contribute something new and different to the screen.
– I have received many messages from people who think it is cool to see such a type of as me on tv, and that I contribute with something different. I hope that maybe I can contribute with something good and make a difference, he says and continues:
– I don’t dream about making tv to become rich and famous, but I think it’s cool to give something of myself, and then maybe to give something to the other. When you look at me physically, I’m not the typical tv personality. Many people would like to look at pretty people in tv. I would also like to myself, but I fall enough into the category. I have learned to ’embrace’ myself, for there are actually some people out there who would like to see a fat chinaman, who bakes the cake. And it is liberating.

– What for some television projects would you like to make?
– I would like to make much more entertainment. I don’t think I can sit and read the news up. I want to entertain and give something of myself and ‘spice’ it up a bit.

Micki Chen hopes that the termination can do that he gets a little more ro on. After his participation in ‘The big bagedyst’ he was namely affected by stress, because he had too much to see to.
– After the ‘Bagedysten’ I had the opportunity to make ‘X Factor’, and many other applications. It was really awesome and fun, but what with having a full-time job combined with freelance things and events was insanely hard. I’m not a person who does anything by half, he says, and continues:
– So, after two and a half years and broke the string. I was on Crete with my husband, and we had planned a lot of things. I went all the way down. I just wanted to sleep and eat, and it was early signs of stress, says Micki Chen, who sought out a psychologist, when he came back to Denmark.

– I went through an intense course, and I learned that I really had to think about what makes me happy and what I would like. At the time I was not ready to speak up, although I well knew that it was what was. But now I’ve gathered courage to it, and in the summer I said so, that it was enough.

Micki Chen does not regret the decision for a second, but is at the same time fear of how it all will get to go.
– The first while being insanely difficult and hard and having to get used to not having a fixed income is also very special. It will be very strange not to have a fixed income, but the driving force behind it is greater than the fear, he says, and continues:
– Now I can have full focus on it, I’m dreaming about. Without having a second job that hangs in the back of the head. I can feel completely down in the stomach, that it is the right decision, even though it is very angsprovokerende. I don’t have a project waiting. I am starting completely from scratch, but I know I would regret it if I did it. A year and a half ago I was not clear, but now the time will show whether it was too late. I am me most, but I must also admit that I’m a bit scared, says Micki Chen, who is officially finished with his job at Danish Crown per. 1. February.
