Boy group: In order to survive, I have to open business

After the release of the second single "Gray of the Moon" during Solis' Daydream period, the other 9 MVs were released soon after. Many fans said it was the best pop album of the year, because everyone's story has both positive and negative sides. Take Xia Xinglang for example, "Gray of the Moon" is a story about bullying, and "Black Bird" is about counterattack, just like the positive and negative sides of a relationship.

The public listening list of the eleven songs of "Moon Age Daydream" is as follows.

01.＜Moonash＞

02. ＜Blackbird＞

03. <ashes to ashes>

04.＜Meteoric Language＞

05.＜loveissue＞

06. <Crazy Rabbit>

07.＜teenagewildlife＞

08.＜Romantic Escape＞

09. ＜Blackstar＞

10. Which Planet Are You From?

11. Moon Age Daydream

Five people, ten songs, the last one is the album's title track, starting with Xia Xinglang's "Grey Moon" and ending with Miu Miu's "Which Planet Are You From?". Everyone says that every song can be a hit single, focusing on the twists and turns of the stories of the members. Xia Xinglang is going to continue with three singles because the second single was too sad. When Xia Xinglang sang "You Wish I Disappeared," many fans were sad.

They urgently needed to express themselves in a more cheerful style, so they officially started promoting their third single "Romantic Escape".

At the same time, J-company agreed to release the members, and the seven of them got together again. It felt like this happened in a previous lifetime. Solis had to make time to rehearse during his promotion period, and Chesire also had to build momentum for his subsequent comeback.

Xiao Yu's eyes were filled with tears as he hugged Xia Xinglang in the dance studio: "I miss you so much, I miss you..."

Xia Xinglang kept comforting him and said it was okay: "We will meet again in the future."

Yoon Dong-ho crossed his arms and looked at them. Kim Seung-hye, as the former captain, discussed with everyone what song to sing, whether it should be their debut song or their last so-called disbandment album: "For a ten-minute performance, how can we do it better?"

"Listen to Little Wolf." "Whatever Little Wolf says is what happens."

Xia Xinglang has a wild idea. He wants to split up immediately after performing the debut single, becoming two groups and two solo singers, forming a four-way camp, with everyone forming a group or performing solo. However, he will definitely be scolded for that, and the fans will not be happy.

"The disbanding song is too sad," Xia Xinglang thought from the perspective of a fan. If they performed the disbanding song again, it would definitely bring back bad memories. They are idols, and the first thing they have to do on stage is to make the audience happy. "Let's sing our debut song, and the popular songs from the mid-term, like "Royal Knights"."

During rehearsal, even though they hadn't performed together for a long time, it seemed as if the moves had been ingrained in their bones. No one had thought the transitions would be so smooth and there was no awkwardness. It was just that the group dance was not as neat as before. The debut song of the same name made them most well-known, and because it was their debut song, some people still listen to this song now.

The rehearsal time was very short. They could only squeeze out a small period of time every day to rehearse the performance. With the lively scenes of various celebrations at the end of the year, they became busier and busier. It was not until the day before the end of the year that they could free up a whole day for rehearsal. Their teammates watched them backstage, and Anton brought them juice.

Xia Xinglang was on guard and did not drink the juice, because poisoning incidents against idols have been common in recent years, and everyone tacitly agreed not to drink it. They put on the familiar bullfighting suits, a red jacket with tassels on the shoulders, and black trousers.

As if he really had the power to travel through time, Xia Xinglang felt like he had returned to the time when he first debuted or even earlier. He was still the person who looked up to Yin Donghao and the others, and now they were walking side by side on the stage.

The stage said that there would be fireworks, and everyone was worried about Star Wolf, asking him if it was possible, but in fact, it was possible without fireworks.

Xia Xinglang said, "Sure, no problem."

When he saw the fireworks rising during the rehearsal, Xia Xinglang remained kneeling on one knee, stiffened for a moment, but immediately returned to the action.

Before officially going on stage, they did not rehearse anymore, because this was the final stage. They might not be as good as before, but that was okay. Two years had passed, the youngest boy had become a 19-year-old brother, and everyone had grown up more or less. Xia Xinglang heard faint and fragmented system notification sounds in his ears.

【Team spirit is successfully condensed! 】

At first, he didn't think too much when he spoke up for Hong Zhanglin. He was not willing to accept that Yin Donghao cared about him. His mind was full of thoughts about competing and winning over everyone. But if he really won, he didn't want Donghao/Yingzhi and the others to stay where they were. Later, gradually, he would involuntarily approach some people, and would truly want to protect his teammates and everyone around him.

Everyone has black hair. Kim Seung-hyuk originally wanted to use his hair color to show his difference, but now there is no need. He is just himself.

Xia Xinglang has looked at everyone, including Hong Zhanglin, Yin Donghao, Yingzhi, Xiao Yu, Jin Chengxie and Che Zaixun because they are still teammates. He has seen enough, but he still treats them all equally and remembers their appearance in his mind.

"It's been a long time, let's all shout slogans."

"Jup1ter! Fighting!"

They do this to relieve tension at every concert or important comeback show.

Kim Seung Hyuk put his arm around his and Yoon Dong Hao’s shoulders and said, “Let’s go on stage.”

"Yeah." Yin Donghao responded.

Standing in the familiar position, waiting for the music to start, the factors in the blood began to stir along with the electric guitar.

【Enter the special 'team spirit' state! 】

Many fans in the audience were holding old cheering sticks. It was in the shape of Jupiter with a planetary belt around it. It made me miss it so much. There were seven people and seven colors.

"This excitement in my heart/leads me to an endless dream..." Xia Xinglang was no longer afraid when he saw the fireworks rising in front of him. Yin Donghao leaned against his back with their wrists crossed.

Young-ji's solo dance, the interaction between Hong Jang-lin and Cha Jae-hun, Xiao Yu's lead dance, and the ending part handed over to Kim Seung-hyuk were all familiar to everyone.

The second song is "Starlight".

Che Zaixun led the singing and dancing, and everyone was very involved.

"No matter how tiny the planet is/No matter how small the sun sinks into the sky..."

“We can meet here too/Under the starlight…”

"Let's spread our wings and fly high together..."

The last song was a fan song chosen after careful consideration, "The Eighth Star". To them, the Eighth Star is the most important fans. Without fans, they would not be who they are today.

"Pain is a shower/Love is a warm wind..."

"You and I met in November/and harvested the most precious eighth star..."

After three songs, on the last day of this year, the audience was filled with stars. They did not feel tired even after singing three songs. Their stage was not gorgeous, there was no lifting stage or stage set, just a simple stage and fireworks. Even fireworks were not necessary for them.

After stepping down the stage, they hugged each other, saying nothing, yet it seemed as if they had said everything. Xia Xinglang, Jin Chengxie, and Che Jae-hun returned to Miu Miu and Li Siyu, Xiao Yu and Yin Donghao returned to the Cheshire Cat, and Hong Zhanglin and Huashanyuan Yingzhi walked together for a while and sat in two separate seats.

Rumors have been circulating about this year's awards ceremony that the Best Pop Album of the Year will go to Song Jueming, and the Best New Male Group will go to the Cheshire Cats, meaning J-Club has won the Grand Slam. Of course, Xia Xinglang doesn't feel anything right now, as he has already won the Best New Artist award as part of JP1. If he wins it again now, it would seem like he has not grown at all. They want to be a growing male group!

The Best Pop Album of the Year award is calculated entirely by sales, and best-selling albums will be selected as candidates. When Xia Xinglang saw their "Moon Age Daydream", he thought that they had only released it for a month and it was just before the deadline for submission, so their hopes of winning the award were already very low and it should be impossible for them to win.

"Best Power Pop Album of the Year! Solis! Moon Age Daydreams!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the prelude of Daydream sounded in the venue, which was a soft and soothing organ sound. Xia Xinglang and his friends were still in a daze. They were reminded by others to go on stage. They just finished their performance and were pushed back on stage. No one had prepared any remarks. Jin Chengxie introduced that the album was about another possibility for them: "Then leave it to Xinglang. He was the inspiration for me."

Xia Xinglang glanced at the people in the audience and his teammates on the stage one by one, and spoke slowly.

"Then let me tell you another story. There was a boy who wanted to be a singer since he was a child. He went to an entertainment company and worked as a trainee, but had to stop training due to family reasons. After going through a lot of hardships and selection, the boy finally participated in a talent show. He thought he could finally step into the threshold of the entertainment industry, but the competition in talent shows was so fierce..."

"The boy, who lacked stage experience, encountered many problems and was eliminated early. He finally made his debut later, but he also faced failure. His teammates excluded him, the company was not optimistic about him, and he could only wear his own private clothes for road shows. He survived for seven years by working part-time jobs, and finally his contract was terminated."

"But he didn't give up. He made his second debut and became famous with a song. His songs were heard by more people, but the company later found him and said there were better and more suitable candidates, so he was asked to withdraw. The contestants who had participated in the talent show together became big stars, and their posters could be seen on the streets, but there was still one boy who was still thinking about pursuing his dream."

Xia Xinglang had tears in his eyes: "I have followed this boy's dream and come this far. Thank you for liking our songs. Thank you so much!"

Rookie of the Year.

Best Pop Boy Group of the Year.

They went on stage to receive the awards and then came down. Everyone gave a speech. They never expected that they would win so many awards. All they could say was thank you and express their sincere love to the fans.

Looking back at the previous "Idol Planet", it feels like it happened in the previous life. On the day the awards were presented, many people knew the name Xia Xinglang and were curious about how he became famous. Looking back over the past three years, three years ago, Xia Xinglang was still a young boy in "Idol Planet".

At that time, the sixteen-year-old Xia Xinglang was campaigning for votes for himself. He looked very energetic in the promotional video, not as handsome as he is now, with some flesh on his cheeks. He looked cute, refreshing, and very well-behaved.

Producer: "Trainee Xia Xinglang, you are the youngest of all the trainees. Please show yourself in front of the screen for all the national producers and planet guardians."

Xia Xinglang held a small blackboard with his name on it and bowed towards the camera, with stars shining in his eyes:

"Hello everyone, the national producers and star guardians of "Idol Planet"! I am Xia Xinglang, a solo trainee without an agency. I will work hard on the show and show a stage charm that is not inferior to the brothers. Please cast your precious vote for me! Thank you! As long as you give me a little bit of likes, I will give you a lot of love!"
