Pei is a special guest on various Chinese variety shows, including "Super Brain", "Forward to the Future", "Voice", "Day Day Up", etc.
Origami.
Pei started folding paper when he was in kindergarten. At first, he learned origami from teachers and parents, and later he copied the patterns from books.
In early 2007, Pei came across a crease pattern designed by Robert J. Lang, an origami master from the United States. It was mind-blowing for him, opening a new world of the craft.
Pei continued to learn origami through theory books, such as "Origami Design Secrets" by Lang. As the quantity of his work grew, so did the variety and quality. 
During the middle school period, Pei created several unique designs, including a 60-centimeter-tall work featuring an angel with six wings folded from a 2-meter-long square sheet of paper. It took him numerous attempts to get everything right.
In 2016, Pei won a bronze prize at the International Origami Internet Olympiad (IOIO). The next year, he became the champion in the competition. For the event's final task, Pei folded an ancient Chinese woman holding a mirror from a sheet of handmade xuanzhi (rice paper), which impressed judges with its exquisite shape and Eastern style. 
In 2018, Pei was invited to be the event's task designer. His work "Bailuyuan" was selected as the edition's mascot.
In 2019, Pei attended the Zijin Grass International Peace Summer School and taught origami to a dozen of international peace envoys.
In 2021, his renowned artworks, such as "Zijin Grass", "Yuanhang Bainian ("100 years of sailing")", and "Join Hands to Build a Peaceful China", were displayed in an exhibition — "The Praise of Youth · Centennial of the Original Mind" in Beijing, China. The exhibition attracted over 72,500 visitors. 
In 2022, to celebrate the 103rd anniversary of the May Fourth Movement, Pei released a tutorial on how to use a newspaper to fold into a flower, named "The Flower in May" — representing the country’s young generation.
On 9 September 2022, a Guinness World Record — The most origami flowers made from a single sheet of paper (100) was achieved by Pei in Beijing, China.The origami paper used measures 3 m (9 ft 10.08 in) x 3 m (9 ft 10.08 in) and was folded by 4 people. Pei and his team crafted an origami deer with 100 twisty roses on its antlers. It took the team for 5 days to complete it.
Variety shows.
In 2017 and 2018, Pei was invited to attend the Chinese version of "Super Brain", a competitive reality show on Jiangsu Satellite TV. The show gave him an opportunity to meet Lang, both as judges for the show. Pei made 20 models for display there and Lang praised his techniques.
In late 2018, Pei took up the challenge of creating a solar panel in origami style at "Forward to the Future", a science show on China Central Television. He successfully built the panel that folds up to 1 square meter－while unfolded, it becomes a structure of 81 square meters.
In 2020, Pei participated in 10 editions of "Power of Youth", a competitive reality show on Anhui Satellite TV. He successfully went through all the challenges about ancient and modern civilization and won the most "power medals" as well as a scientific research fund.
In 2021, on behalf of Chinese youth, Pei was invited to express his ideas at "Voice", the first open class for youth on China Central Television. He gave an "Ice Cube" Voronoi tessellation model to Zheng Fang, the architect of several Olympic stadiums in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games and the 2022 Winter Olympic Games.
In 2022, Pei was invited to deliver a speech titled "5 Minutes to Change the Future" at "Day Day Up" on Hunan Satellite TV, bringing a new perspective to the audience.
