On February 26 and March 5, 2017, together with Dong Zijian and Xie Yilin***, he recorded Hunan Satellite TV's large-scale life service documentary program "Longing for Life".

"Longing for Life" is a life service documentary program jointly launched by Hunan Satellite TV and Hexin Media. It is hosted by He Jiong, Huang Lei and Liu Xianhua.

In the program, Huang Lei, He Jiong, and Liu Xianhua returned to their countryside together, bringing to the audience a picture of life of "self-reliance, self-sufficiency, warm hospitality, and perfect ecology".

The program will premiere on Hunan Satellite TV at 20:30 every Sunday night from January 15, 2017, and will be broadcast on Sunday night at 22:00 from February 5, 2017. 16 ends.

The requirements of "Longing for Life" for celebrities and guests are very simple: go to the fields to pick, build a stove, use the only traditional daily necessities in the farmhouse, and live a self-sufficient life. If there is additional demand, they need to exchange corresponding labor. A good life is earned through the work of both hands. By allowing the guests to return to life itself, the program tells some simple truths, such as cherishing the value of a meal and the Chinese way of hospitality.
