A thin face, messy hair, irregular teeth that appear when he smiles, and a stutter when talking. The singer of the New Pants Band, Peng Lei, is thrown into the crowd, and you may not even take a second look at him. A person with such no sense of superiority became famous before.

On the previous variety show "Summer of the Band", Peng Lei and his companions won the championship in one fell swoop. It created a huge trend among young people. Peng Lei, who was originally only famous in the rock circle, unexpectedly became a celebrity. In the released season of "Qi Pa Shuo", this "living treasure" was also invited back.

Talk show star Li Dan asked Peng Lei to add a WeChat account on a variety show, and he was granted permission after begging. As a well-known "depressive" patient, Peng Lei said that he always has more than 100 friends on his mobile phone. If someone adds him, he has to delete one first. During the show, in order to join Li Dan, he deleted the famous director Lu Chuan from his friend list in front of everyone.

There are still words in his mouth. Xu Zheng deleted it before, and Ning Hao also deleted it. This time, I will delete Lu Chuan. Anyway, I can't see it. The behavior that seemed almost crazy to everyone seemed calm and indifferent to him. Many people who don't know it have seen it, and they always have a doubt in their hearts. Isn't this child stupid? From a scientific perspective, Peng Lei is neither crazy nor stupid, and is also very talented.

But from the perspective of getting along with others, he does seem to be contrary to his surroundings. He talks little, has "sequelae of facial paralysis", and seems to be very inarticulate. If you have not experienced his works and talents, you really do not want to have any communication with this "monster". In "Summer of the Band", many viewers realized that he and Mr. Zhang Wei, a celebrity in the entertainment industry, were "equal".

He started playing music earlier than Da Zhangwei. In variety shows, he even teased Da Zhangwei in front of everyone that his piano skills were "just as bad" as before. Say whatever comes to mind without giving any face. Looking at Peng Lei's WeChat Moments, many people will wonder who would make such illogical and self-righteous funny jokes.

Peng Lei, who was born into a family of professional intellectuals, has always been more casual, and his family is more supportive of his preferences. But this kind of indulgence did not achieve good results. Because he kept failing, he did not go to a vocational high school under the guidance of his father, an artist. After getting rid of the discipline, he played music on campus, formed a band, and played guitar like a man possessed.

With this "silly energy", the "New Pants Band" he formed with his friends gained some popularity at that time. Under his father's guidance, Peng Lei relied on his imagination and ancestral painting expertise to get into Communication University of China, which was unprecedented. Relying on the skills inherited from his family, Peng Lei is good at drawing comics and has also written many animation characters by himself.

In his words, he is an art master who was delayed by singing. Just like singing, painting is also different from others. But as usual, studying is impossible, and the fragmented time during college has been occupied by playing. When I was in my twenties, I didn't even fall in love. I was either drawing comics or playing guitar.

I agree with the saying "If you don't study hard today, you will work hard to find a job tomorrow." As soon as he graduated from college, Peng Lei was shocked. They all had to starve to death relying on band performances. After being introduced by others, Ben entered a small company with a monthly salary of only 1,500. His family thought that he should now feel how difficult life is and be able to live a down-to-earth life.

But after getting the money, the first thing he did was to "recharge his faith online" and made the band's first solo album of the same name. When I released my latest song and had no money to shoot a music video, I relied on the three-legged cat kung fu I learned in school to make clay animations. Unexpectedly, it was a hit and miss, and it won many awards after it was announced. But the reality is cruel. The rock music they play cannot be compared with pop songs. The audience is small and they can't make money.

Because I was so focused on working in the band, I often took vacations, which made me almost unable to afford food. In the eyes of others, the work they do is standard "doing nothing". In the predicament of being popular or not, being famous but not making any money, Peng Lei's friends chose to withdraw because they could not bear the pressure of life. His former teammates cut off their rebellious long hair and found jobs, leaving only him and his founding team member Pang Kuan.

This year, Peng Lei immediately "ran three". For ordinary people, they should find a stable job and live a down-to-earth life. But two people with extraordinary brain circuits discussed it and came to a conclusion: why it is not popular, because we are not diligent enough! With their love for the song, the two decided to give it another try.

I tightened my belt, cut back on food and clothing, and produced another solo album. The music genre is astonishing, retro fashion + fashion + disco, creating a set of "magic realism" gameplay. The solo album was a hit as soon as it was released, and the band took advantage of the attention and started touring across the country.

After enjoying the scenery for many months, Peng Lei returned home and found that it seemed difficult to make any money. But relying on performances and commercial performances, I can survive by making do. Peng Lei got married to his girlfriend when he was free. He was already 37 years old this year.

Three years later, his daughter was born, and he was a little panicked when he suddenly became a father. I haven't figured out how to be a father yet.

Not only does he have to write, but he also has to put pressure on his family's life. Making money has become the top priority in his heart. I was not rich before, but now I have another mouth to talk to, so I can only do my best to pay for milk powder. One time, in order to save on referral fees, he even worked at a real estate agency for a while.

In his 40s, his career has not improved, and he may have become accustomed to this kind of fatigue. He sang in a song, "That dazzling flame is igniting you and me; that ordinary life is burning because of you." Relying on the "popularity" of the song, he finally made a big turnaround in 2020.

When participating in the show, he admitted frankly that he was doing it to increase his fans and make money, so that he could give his family a better life. He was dumbfounded when speaking and did not conceal his purpose at all. It is precisely this kind of fearless "silliness" that attracts the love of many viewers.

In order to make music better, Peng Lei worked hard for more than 30 years. If he had chosen to give up like his colleagues at that time. It's very possible that there is still nothing left today. With his love for songs and his non-stop foolishness day and night, he finally found favor with God. He is in his forties, but he looks like an ungrown child. It is very possible that it is this immaturity that creates this unique Peng Lei.
