Chung An-Chi (Chinese: 鍾安琪; pinyin: Zhōng Anqí; Wade–Giles: Chung An-ch'i; born July 23, 1989 in Taiwan), better known in Japan as Anchii (アンチー) is the sub-leader of the latest Hello! Project group Ice Creamusume. She was announced as a winner of the Taiwan Hello! Project New Star Auditions on September 20, 2008 along with the other members of Ice Creamusume.
Hello! Project producer Tsunku announced his plans to start a Taiwanese audition in 2007 to find new talent to help the company's expansion into Asia. The winners would become a part of a new Hello! Project group. There were six winners, including Chung An-chi, and the group are set to debut in 2009 with their mini-album and at a Hello! Project concert.
As she is the second oldest member, she is automatically the sub-leader of the group.
She is a Leo.
After making it past the auditions and onto the live shows, Chung An-chi was eliminated early, but was brought back for a special episode in which Tsunku allowed his favourite losers from the auditions and live shows to re-audition for the judges. However, she was eliminated during this episode once again, and instead was sent to a "last camp" of sorts, where she, along with Qiu Cui Ling, was eventually chosen to join the group as one of Tsunku's picks.
