Last November, Lei went to Beijing and began recording the TV show after standing out from more than 70,000 people who signed up for the competition. After winning, Lei returned to Hangzhou and continues his delivery work and the memorizing of poems.

Lei's outstanding performance during the final, and his inspirational story, have amazed Chinese audiences.

"His love of learning is so pure,it moved me to tears,” one netizen said. "It always amazes me how some people simply hunger for knowledge, ” another shared.
