The Starlight Gala is an annual event. There will be a red carpet walk before the show.

All the artists attending the party were dressed in their best attire. The female stars wore high-end clothes and limited edition jewelry, and their smiles were as beautiful as flowers. The male stars were well-dressed and gentlemanly. At a glance, there were all kinds of handsome men and beautiful women. It was truly a feast of beauty.

Among these veteran stars in the entertainment industry, some young and fresh faces are particularly eye-catching. Many artists and media reporters involuntarily turned their attention to the six teenagers.

They were dressed in the same style, with their shoulders straight and their steps confident. The leader was stunningly handsome, with a gentle and cool temperament that formed a unique charm that made people stunned at first sight and unforgettable; the tall boy on his left had handsome eyebrows and eyes that made people's heart beat fast, but his expression was kind of lazy and restrained, with a kind of youthful vigor; the boy on the right had a pair of affectionate phoenix eyes, as if he was walking gracefully in the moonlight, with a kind of impeccable elegance and dignity.

The last three boys were equally dazzling, one had a cold look and strong hormones that made people blush when they looked at each other, one was sweet and delicate like a real person, so cute that people wanted to grab him and hug him and rub him hard, and one was sunny and handsome, with a handsome smile and a bit of naivety, the kind of heroic wolf dog that is very popular nowadays, making many cold senior sisters couldn't help but feel a little moved.

The boys were too young and too outstanding, making many people wonder which new group they were from. Their temperament and appearance were too eye-catching.

The media reporters eagerly raised their cameras and took a lot of photos. It was obvious that the young men were newcomers. They were not at all nervous or embarrassed in such occasions. They smiled at the camera with ease, greeted their seniors modestly, and answered questions quickly when interviewed by reporters. No matter their image, temperament, personality or ability, it was difficult for people to like them.

Although the red carpet process was only a few minutes long, the details revealed so much.

Wang Henian and Luo Ziteng also attended the ceremony. When Ye Ying and the others saw their familiar seniors, they finally showed their youthful liveliness from their mature and steady demeanor. They ran forward and greeted them happily, "Hello, teacher!"

Luo Ziteng looked at them for a few seconds, then turned to Wang Henian with a smile and said, "We've only seen each other for two months, but why do I feel like they are so much the same as they were in the camp?"

If we say that these young men in the Dream Camp are outstanding and eye-catching, but now they have begun to shine like stars, I didn’t dare to recognize them when I saw them from a distance just now.

"In half a year, these guys will transform again." Wang Henian sighed, "Fenghua really has a good eye, signing these treasures."

They chatted for a while, and when the red carpet was almost over, they entered the venue and took their seats. Before parting, Wang Henian and Luo Ziteng smiled and said, "Good luck in the performance later."

The boys thanked her in unison, and Ye Ying smiled and said, "I wish the teacher all the best in her work."

"You're so sensible." Luo Ziteng rubbed the young man's head, and in a good mood he went to the front row with Wang Henian.

The Starlight Gala officially began with a chorus opening by several talented idol singers. The scene was steady and the audience was very excited, and the atmosphere immediately became lively.

The entire evening party will be performed with the mic open, and the participating artists know this, so talented singers have nothing to worry about, and vocal Taihang artists will also choose songs with lower difficulty to reduce the chance of failure on the spot.

Having said that, there were still several experienced young idols who made mistakes when singing and dancing, including the idol boy group inf.

Dancing in unison was still a problem, but what was shocking was that when Jong Joon-woo was singing the title song, he actually forgot two lines of his own part. The silence for a few seconds was simply cosmically awkward. Apart from that, two members were out of tune, and when the dance was large in amplitude, everyone's wheezing like a bellows made some inf fans in the audience cover their faces, and they didn't even have the nerve to hold up their light boards.

This strength is really too weak.

inf has performed on many stages in the past three years. Because their dancing skills are pretty good and they have always used half-open mic or lip-syncing, they have rarely had any serious accidents. But this time, the full open mic performance completely exposed their true level.

"Our domestic male entertainment groups are really good." A girl in the audience sighed and said to her companions, "They can't compare with the Korean groups I followed. They are much more stable on stage."

The girl sitting next to me was holding the Aurora sign and looking forward to it: "INF is OK, but the Aurora Group is super awesome!"

The girl pouted her lips and said, "How great can a new group be? I think you have a fan filter."

"They will be the next show," the girl said, "Just believe me!"

Coincidentally, the two boy band programs were arranged one after the other. The tens of thousands of audiences at the scene had just been tortured by the inf stage, and they were a little worried when they saw that there was another boy band next.

Do these traffic stars know that if they don’t have the ability to participate in a program of this level, it will only increase their popularity and make them look bad and be ridiculed?

Just as he was complaining, the stage design changed, and the lights in the entire venue turned into a dreamy and beautiful blue. A colorful aurora appeared on the background screen, attracting everyone's attention.

The stage rotated and rose, and six tall and straight young boys came into view. Their outstanding appearance attracted some audiences who had never paid attention to them before and couldn't help but exclaimed. What kind of combination is this? Let's talk about their strength first. Just looking at their appearance is enough to kill most of the fresh meat in the circle!

The silver hexagram pattern slowly rotated under their feet. He Zhou walked to the front of the stage, staring into space with his dark eyes, and began to sing:

"Distant Time and Space

The Vast Universe

The Secret Across Billions of Light Years

Meet you"

He has a wide vocal range. He can sing high notes when singing, or he can use his low, magnetic voice to bring the audience into the state in a second. Many audiences who had previously looked down on him showed expressions of surprise and astonishment, and involuntarily focused their energy on the stage.

Just like the star tracks moving out of step and exchanging positions, Ming Yuechen reached out and touched the stage lights to project a special effect galaxy:

"Shine with the sky

Within reach

But the most magnificent and beautiful

I was mesmerized at first sight."

The phoenix eyes behind his lenses pierced through the void and fell on the audience seats below the stage. The loneliness and intoxication in his eyes were so real that the people whose hearts were met with his gaze suddenly skipped a beat. Suddenly, they had an absurd illusion, as if those lyrics were sung just for themselves.

The six people clearly had their backs to each other, but they seemed to have memorized each other's positions on the stage. They changed their formations in perfect tacit understanding, like stars guarding each other, allowing Li Jingfei to come to the front:

"I am as small as dust

Buried in thick darkness

Delusionally chasing the light band on the horizon

I am also afraid that it will become an empty dream in a flash."

He turned around and looked at Ye Ying in tacit understanding. The sky was full of stars, and Ye Ying's eyes were brighter than the starry sky. He looked ahead with a smile, and his gentle and clear voice was like the sound of nature that suddenly descended, so beautiful that it almost made people's hearts tremble:

"You bloom in the night

Send a surprise romance

I hear the wind whispering in my ears

Reach out and see the Milky Way falling before your eyes"

The accompaniment gradually reached a climax, and the six boys danced and sang on the wide stage. Every lift of their arms, every turn, and every step were precisely unified as if they were replicas. Aurora fans in the audience were waving light signs and screaming excitedly, and the six of them started singing together:

"You are the colorful aurora

Break through the darkness and illuminate me

With shooting star light

Guiding the way in the dark night

You are the dazzling aurora

Dispel fear and melt sadness

Tenderness is by my side

It’s the faith that changed my life.”

The same tone and color interweave into the most perfect harmonious notes, and the catchy melody makes the audience shake their light sticks involuntarily. "Aurora" is clearly a gentle song, but it seems that there is a continuous and powerful force rushing out of it, making people's heartbeats accelerate and even the blood in their bodies boil.

Aurora fans couldn't find any words to describe their feelings at this moment. They wanted to cry, they wanted to shout, they wanted to scream, they wanted to shout those names desperately and tell them:

You are the aurora in my heart!

I changed my faith!!

The gradient aurora light board was like wheat waves in the wind, swaying in the darkness in harmony with the singing of Qiu Shuang and Xu Qiongzhi. The first chorus was enthusiastic and intoxicated, and many fans and audiences even sang along with the second chorus. Because the melody was so good and left a deep impression, it was simply "love at first sight"!

The accompaniment gradually became so low that it almost disappeared. Ye Ying walked out of the formation. Her forehead was slightly sweaty due to dancing, but her voice was bright and steady with a hint of disorder, like a shining meteor in the silent night, instantly grabbing people's hearts and breath:

"You are the dawn of the long night

Give me warmth, courage and strength

I will be alone and wandering in the future

Because you are always by my side"

The clear and sweet voice, like smoothie, has a nearly terrifying sound pressure. It effortlessly resounds throughout the studio that can accommodate 60,000 spectators. Many audience members can't help but applaud in admiration. Even several senior and powerful old singers can't help but sigh: "The young are formidable. This is a natural for this job."

After the performance, the boys stood side by side in the center of the stage, panting slightly, and bowed to the audience. The audience gave warm applause without hesitation, and the fans even shouted loudly with tears in their voices:

"aurora! aurora! aurora!!"

Like a long-lasting heat wave.

＿＿

Aurora became famous overnight, and the title song of her first album "Aurora" quickly became a hit.

[I was so nervous about their debut stage performance, but now it seems that I was just worrying for no reason!! If you haven’t watched the Aurora stage, go watch it, the new song is so good, and everyone is so handsome!!]

[The title song is so good, I sang it on repeat at the Starlight Festival stage until I couldn’t stop!! So when will the new album be released? Damn company, hurry up, do I look like someone who is short of money! ?]

[I’m a new fan here, I got into it from the “Aurora” stage~ I used to complain to my sisters that this new boy band was not qualified to participate in the Starlight Festival, now I’m covering my swollen face and shouting: This group’s business ability is superb, sisters, it’s definitely a loss if you invest in it!!]

[I can only imagine seeing such a top-level boy band in terms of both appearance and strength in the domestic entertainment industry! ! Every member meets my aesthetic standards, and all members have no shortcomings in singing and dancing! Their professional skills are truly amazing! ]

[I’ve been obsessed with Captain Ye these past few days and can’t help myself. First, his stunning looks struck me, and then his god-level vocals struck me. After watching all of his material for “Dream Maker”, I’ve become a die-hard fan of him!! Woohoo, it’s such a blessing to be a fan of such a god-like idol!]

[I found that Ye Ying is really charming in every aspect. In terms of appearance, he is a member of the Aurora Group. In terms of identity, he is the son of the Ye Group. In terms of strength, his vocals are amazing and his dancing is charming. In terms of IQ, he is a top student in the A-level university. In terms of personality, he can be salty, sweet, and lovable. In terms of fans, he has fans of moms, girlfriends, boyfriends, and wives. In terms of CP, he and the Aurora members can form six pairs of good CP relationships... No matter which side he is, he can seduce me. What kind of a devil is this!!]

[I think I can give Ye Ying an award for the "Most Powerful C Position in History". Not to mention the group, even as an individual, I have never seen such an all-round artist. I am tired of saying "awesome"]

[And it’s a standard starting point beautiful, strong and miserable character! ! I’ve just finished watching Yingying’s experience and I’m almost crying like a fool. I really regret not being able to accompany him through all the ups and downs qaq I hope that from now on, Yingying baby and the Aurora Group can have a smooth and successful journey! ! ]

…

In just three days, the number of fans of Aurora increased by more than one million, and Ye Ying's personal Weibo fans exceeded 8 million. Other members also received a lot of attention. The official Weibo was bombarded by old and new fans, asking eight hundred times a day when the album would be released. Perhaps the company was also scared by the fans' cannibalistic attitude, and finally on December 14, the official music platform officially released Aurora's first album "Aurora".

In addition to the title song "Aurora", "Aurora" also includes six new songs, "Rose Planet", "Cosmic Romance", "Inverted Soul", "Out of Control", and "Autumn Fairy Tale", with diverse styles. The quality of each song is so high that fans are so excited that they cry. What is most shocking is that the lyrics of all six songs are actually Aurora!!

Huge surprises came one after another, and the Aurora fans were a little psychedelic.

Am I still a human being?

These are six gods!!

#aurora's first album "Aurora"# and #aurorahuman high-quality boy group# were on the hot search list. At the same time, the sales of the digital album "Aurora" skyrocketed to over 100,000 in 24 hours, and successfully exceeded 600,000 in 72 hours. It is still growing steadily. It is estimated that it is only a matter of time before it exceeds one million.

This number is almost terrifying in the mainland music circle, and even many idols who have debuted for many years have difficulty reaching this number. From July to December, from midsummer to cold winter, this group, which has been polishing for nearly half a year, finally became completely popular with its own strength and quality.

On December 18, Aurora was invited to participate in the Internet Video Night and performed "Aurora" and "Rose Planet". "Aurora" triggered a chorus of thousands of fans at the scene, and when the six boys wore rose-colored clothes and pure white trousers to sing the romantic love song "Rose Planet", the atmosphere was so warm that it was almost out of control. The fans were almost fainted by the sweetness. After the singing, the six boys magically conjured a bouquet of roses from their hands and gave them to the audience near the stage. At that time, the huge screams at the scene almost blew the roof off.

Ye Ying had previously thought that she had experienced the feeling of being a star during the period of Dream Making, but now she truly felt what it meant to be "a witch meeting a great witch". There were so many private messages on Weibo that the software would become sluggish and stuck when she opened it, and she never cared about meeting a large number of fans. Even if it was already twelve o'clock in the morning after an announcement, there were still hundreds of fans outside the event site stamping their feet and blowing their hands in the cold wind, waiting, their cheeks red from the cold, willingly waiting for two or three hours in the winter, just for them to jump up and wave excitedly when the nanny car passed by, and shout "Brother, I love you".

This is the difference between being famous and becoming popular.

In the face of this huge change, no one in Aurora showed pride or complacency. They would sign autographs for fans as much as possible in the limited time, bowing deeply to thank them for their support; they would ask the driver to roll down the window every time, wave and smile at the fans waiting outside, and tell them to go home quickly. Qiu Shuang once felt so distressed when he saw these girls shivering with cold that he handed his hand warmer to a girl through the car window. The girl hugged the warm hand warmer and cried when she saw his face.

Their love was conveyed to every member of Aurora very clearly. They dared not feel a little proud. Applause, flowers and fame brought joy but also more pressure. They were determined to perform better on the next stage and never let down all those who had high expectations of them.

At the end of the year, all major platforms have held various entertainment evenings, almost sending invitations to the most popular idol boy bands, and even two local Spring Festival Galas have extended olive branches to Aurora. For the first time in their lives, the six boys were so busy that they were like six crazy spinning tops, and they didn't even have time to breathe.

Announcements, rehearsals, recordings, interviews, album promotions... Everyone spent a week sleeping in cars or planes, and every day was a matter of rushing to catch up with schedules. It was not until the evening of December 26 that all other recent work was barely finished. Uncle Mai told them to rehearse the two local TV stations' Spring Festival Gala programs in the remaining days, and then they could rest and prepare to go home happily for the New Year.

After staying up all night, the young men nodded with dazed eyes. As soon as the car took them back to Chunshan Xinbi, everyone washed their faces, took off their clothes, and fell into bed and slept soundly.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that Ye Ying slowly woke up. He hadn't eaten properly for more than ten hours and was almost starving. He stretched and turned his head to see that Li Jingfei had also woken up and was lying on the bed checking his phone.

Li Jingfei saw the commotion and turned to ask him, "I ordered takeout, what do you want to eat?"

Ye Ying's stomach growled, "Grilled skewers, fried chicken, desserts... whatever is healthy you want to eat."

Li Jingfei smiled: "Uncle Mai, today, let's have a meal secretly."

Ye Ying stretched out her hand and gave him a thumbs up.

The two got up and washed up. When they went downstairs, they saw Ming Yuechen also got up. He was wearing pajamas and making a homemade sandwich in the kitchen with a bitter face. He was completely different from his "noble and elegant" personality. Ye Ying came over to take a look at the bulging sandwich and knew what was in it: "Brother Ming, Brother Fei ordered a lot of takeout, which will be here soon."

"Great." Ming Yuechen washed his hands immediately, "When He Zhou wakes up, feed him this stuff."

The remaining three who had trouble getting up were originally sleeping soundly, but when Ye Ying carried the skewers around the bed, they immediately woke up with their noses twitching. Twenty minutes later, the six boys finally finished cleaning up and gathered in the restaurant on the first floor, wolfing down the takeaway ordered by Li Jingfei.

"I used to think being a star was so blissful, but now it seems so miserable!" Xu Qiongzhi whimpered as she ate. "I can't sleep well, I can't eat enough, but I still have to work hard day and night. It's even more miserable than being a slave!"

In a way, this makes sense.

"At least I can rest for the next two days." Qiu Shuang ate beef burritos, "The bed is so comfortable. I don't want to sleep in the car anymore."

He Zhou took a bite of the sandwich, chewed it twice, and suddenly felt a little weird. After swallowing it with difficulty, he asked Li Jingfei: "Where did you buy this? I think I should avoid that store next time."

Li Jingfei was a little puzzled: "I didn't order a sandwich."

He Zhou slowly turned his head, his deadly gaze fixed on the person who had tidied himself up and turned noble and elegant again: "Ming, Yue, Chen——"

After eating, the other person drank a cup of coffee with satisfaction: "I was just returning the favor by giving me that box of expired yogurt the day before yesterday."

"I did it on purpose again!"

"I did it on purpose. Who knew it could turn out so bad?"

Ye Ying was drinking porridge while tapping the screen with his fingers. He Zhou saw that he hadn't moved for a long time, so he dragged his chair over to take a look: "Who are you chatting with?"

Ye Ying: "Diao Yan."

He Zhou paused: "Who???"

"Diao Yan," Ye Ying explained, "is the captain of INF."

"I know it's him." He Zhou's expression was almost distorted, "The key is how do you have his WeChat???"

"I ran into him in the restroom at the Internet Video Night the first time I attended it. We chatted for a while and then added him on WeChat." Ye Ying said, "In fact, among INF, his strength is pretty good."

Almost all members of inf are lame, and they rely on Diao Yan, the captain and C position, to support them. He Zhou can certainly see this. But the point is this! !

He controlled his tone and said, "Can I see what you guys are talking about?"

Ye Ying handed him the phone. He Zhou immediately flipped through it.

- Diao Yan: It is said that you are sure to participate in the xx TV Spring Festival Gala, congratulations [Cat Congratulations.jpg]

-Yeah: Thank you

- Diao Yan: What happened some time ago has had a positive impact on you.

-Yeah: Senior, you are so polite. You have already apologized that day, and it is your fault. It is easy for the team members to take care of it.

- Diao Yan: Indeed. Inf has actually been disbanded, and people's hearts have not gathered at all [sigh]. I envy your group and admire you as the leader. Although you are young, you do much better than me [thumbs up.jpg]

-Yeah: That’s too much praise. My teammates are really good [laughing.jpg]

- Diao Yan: You are also very good. I watched your performance later and you were the most dazzling one. Your ability is impeccable. I hope I can have the opportunity to work with you in the future [cat heart.jpg]

He Zhou: “…”

"You will have a chance in this life, so just give up." He sneered, then turned to Ye Ying and said seriously, "A man who loves to make cute expressions is either a scumbag or a pervert, or simply gay, so stay away from him, okay?"

After saying that, he opened the chat box with his finger and rudely sent a "get out" emoticon.

Ye Ying: “…”
