On the afternoon of June 8, when Xiao Jingteng was being interviewed by a reporter from Red Star News, it was cloudy and the rain had not yet had time. "I just think (raining) happens too often, (Reporter: Will it bother you?) But it won't bother me. For me, it's been asked for more than ten years, and sometimes I feel like, 'Oh, why is it coming again? But most of the time I think it’s okay, the flavor of life, it’s pretty good.” Today, “Rain God” Xiao Jingteng is in a good mood, jokingly saying that when Chengdu people hear that they are in Chengdu, “you bring your own things (rain gear). it is good."

Xiao Jingteng was interviewed by Red Star News

Looking back, Xiao Jingteng was called "Rain God" for the first time in 2012. At that time, he held a concert in Beijing, but it was pushed to the hot search because Beijing suffered a heavy rain that was hard to come by in 61 years. After that, as long as Xiao Jingteng visited the city, it would rain heavily. So much so that the organizers of the event regarded him as a "storm vane". As long as he came, he would take precautionary measures in advance. Even perennial netizens begged him to come to the arid city for a "rainfall concert", these strange requests often made Xiao Jingteng laugh or cry.

Xiao Jingteng's new song "Sunny Days"

Recently, Xiao Jingteng posted a demo of the new song "Sunny Days" on Weibo, which everyone thought was based on the feelings of "Rain God". "Actually not, it was created according to the title." Xiao Jingteng was very excited about this new work. He and the music team had the same ideas. He created an eight-minute original music piece in a week, and he was very satisfied.
However, for Chengdu people, they may "love and hate" Xiao Jingteng. I love him because the rain in summer is cool and comfortable; on the contrary, it is also because of the inconvenience of travel caused by the rain. In an interview with a Red Star News reporter today, Xiao Jingteng revealed that he has lived in Chengdu for a long time. "Chengdu's life is so good, prices are not as high as other cities, and there is a lot of room for development. I have lived in Chengdu." For Chengdu, Xiao Jingteng loves from the heart. As for the news that he bought a house in Chengdu, he flatly denied it. "I didn't buy a house, it's fake news. But I hope to build a good foundation for my own catering brand from Chengdu, and save a little more money to buy a house later."
Since April last year, Xiao Jingteng opened his own pasta brand in Chengdu. One year later, he admitted that the business is not bad. "There are about 300 orders every day, so it's okay." When he opened a store in Chengdu, Xiao Jingteng liked to eat noodles, especially Chengdu noodles. I remember he once said that he ate four bowls of noodles in one go, and even added eight portions of chopped peppers. "Chengdu people like to eat noodles, and they are picky. So we chose to open our first store in Chengdu, and we didn't rush to expand in other places. We laid the foundation first."
Now living in Chengdu, it satisfies Xiao Jingteng's gourmet mouth. "Rocket squid!" This is one of his favorite foods recently, "egg fried rice, skewers, and my own noodle shop." Speaking of Chengdu cuisine, Xiao Jingteng can't help but speak Sichuan dialect, "Ba Shi" .
Of course, you can't just make fun of Lao Xiao's "super power", he is also a first-line artist with super durable singing ability. The variety show that Xiao Jingteng participated in was just broadcast at noon today. He introduced that he was "20 years old, and took Mai on the stage to go forward." It was 2007, and Xiao Jingteng, carrying a guitar, stood on the stage of "Super Avenue of Stars" and became famous. You know, before that, Xiao Jingteng, who had a dream of music, had an uneven road to music. In order to support myself, singing in restaurants is the norm.

With his perseverance, Xiao Jingteng achieved the success he deserved. But the effort behind it is several times more than ordinary people. For example, the guitar he loves can play 8 hours a day. "I have a mysterious communication with guitar. I have loved guitar since I was a child, although I didn't learn it. My brother chose guitar, I chose percussion, and then there is no good learning environment at home. Even if I study by myself, I will I really started playing guitar at the end of 2019. There are too many people who are good at guitar, but I am studying very hard.” Speaking of guitar, Xiao Jingteng is very excited, “I will know where to start learning what I am interested in, and it will not be wasted. My time, I will find the point very accurately, not necessarily starting from the basics. I am also playing with top musicians on Weibo, and they are also very good. It is a recognition for me to be able to play with me.”
In an interview with a Red Star News reporter before, Xiao Jingteng hoped to come to Chengdu for a concert when conditions permit. Although the conditions are not yet available, many first-line singers have chosen the method of "online concerts". "We have always had it, and we should have it this year." When the Red Star News reporter asked if he would put the concert in Chengdu? The agent on the side said bluntly, "It's being arranged." It is worth mentioning that the music variety show "Sound Unending Treasure Island Season" will also be launched this year, and Xiao Jingteng, who has participated in "Singer", will appear on this stage. up? In this regard, Xiao Jingteng said frankly that as long as everything is suitable, he is willing to stand on the stage to show the good music of his hometown.
