Being an idol means that even celebrating your birthday isn't just for yourself, it's part of your work.

So, Jiang Ye ate cake and actively interacted with the comments in the live stream, replying to a few interesting questions.

After she finished eating cake.

The staff came over to clean up and asked, "Besides your teammates, there are a few birthday wishes from people who couldn't come to the venue, do you want to hear them?"

Jiang Ye smiled, "Of course."

As she responded, the screen behind her started playing a VCR again.

Jiang Ye was startled and took two steps back, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Jin's face.

"Hello, Jiang Ye."

"Happy nineteenth birthday!"

Gu Jin's filming location looked like a film set.

People were constantly coming and going behind her, but Gu Jin said very sincerely to the camera, "In the new year, I hope you'll continue to take 5tars to higher places."

She paused and then blinked, "Don't forget our promise."

Next was Liang Yu.

"Hey, Jiang Ye, long time no see!"

"You're only turning nineteen?"

Liang Yu looked thoughtful, "I thought back to when we competed, it's hard to believe that you're actually younger than me."

"I hope you'll create stages you're even more satisfied with in the new year!"

"I'll also work hard, and I hope we'll see each other on stage in the future!"

Then it was Zhu Li.

Compared to the previous two, she was much more serious, she even wore full makeup for the video.

"That, happy birthday, Jiang Ye!"

"Actually, I didn't expect to be notified to record this video, I'm a little nervous."

"The last time I saw you was probably at the finals, I thought you would definitely get the C position, and you did get the C position."

"In your new nineteenth year, I think you'll definitely become the most famous, most powerful, and most amazing idol in the entertainment industry! I believe you'll do it this time!"

She gave a cheering gesture and then said, "I'll always be supporting you from behind!"

...

At first, Jiang Ye thought it was just birthday wishes from her friends.

But then she saw that there were even her five mentors from the competition.

Even their CEO Qin had recorded a message for her.

Although it was just a simple "Happy birthday", it gave Jiang Ye the feeling of being greeted by her boss, which was a little scary.

The next to appear was the entire planning team for her birthday party.

After they wished Jiang Ye a happy birthday, they said, "Next, we have a very special gift for you, it's from fans all over the country."

The camera suddenly cut.

The screen showed People's Square.

And dozens of fans holding light sticks of a green-blue color gathered together.

The wind was howling, and they said in unison, "We're in Shanghai!"

The camera switched frequently.

"We're in Beijing."

"We're in Chongqing."

"We're in Shenzhen."

...

After the cameras from dozens of provinces and cities were shown.

All the images were combined.

They held up their light sticks, "Happy nineteenth birthday to our Jiang Ye!!!"

During rehearsal, Jiang Ye was only told that there would be birthday wishes from friends in the industry, and they didn't show them to her.

Seeing so many fans suddenly, she felt a lump in her throat.

So many people liked her.

On her nineteenth birthday, she once again felt the happiness of being surrounded by love.

Just as Jiang Ye was intently watching the birthday wishes from her fans.

The staff brought over several large gift boxes and opened them for her.

"These are all the letters fans sent you for your birthday."

"Because we sent out the message late, and it takes time to send letters, so we only had two days."

"But in those two days, we collected over thirty thousand letters."

Jiang Ye: "..."

Jiang Ye calculated, and she felt like crying and laughing, "If I read ten letters a day, I should be able to finish them in ten years, right?"

She paused and then said, "Um, maybe I'll retire before I finish reading all these letters."

【Don't worry, baby!! You'll be twenty-nine in ten years!!!】

【Suddenly scared, you won't want to retire at twenty-nine, will you?! Don't, baby! Twenty-nine is still young!!】

Idols' careers aren't very long.

Most of them either retire or transition to other fields.

Jiang Ye mentioned it so casually, but it scared her fans.

Jiang Ye just smiled and jokingly asked, "Will you still like me when I'm twenty-nine?"

【Of course!!】

【Wuwuwu, don't say twenty-nine, I can like you until you're ninety-nine!!!】

Jiang Ye: "..."

That's a bit much.

After watching the fans' wishes, it was time for the next part of the birthday party.

The staff connected the sound system for Jiang Ye and brought her a microphone.

The background music started.

The first song was 《Breaking Free and Becoming a Butterfly》.

While the intro was playing, Jiang Ye said, "Actually, looking back now, this song isn't really that good."

"But I guess a lot of people probably know me because of that song."

【That's right, wuwuwu, this is the beginning of my love with Jiang Ye!!!】

【Wuwuwu, it's also the beginning of my mother-daughter relationship with Ye Ye.】

Jiang Ye: "So, I want to sing this song again for you."

It wasn't just this song.

Next, Jiang Ye sang all the songs she had performed on stage.

Whether it was during the competition or after her debut, whether it was a formal stage or an informal stage, she sang each one again, with different emotions, giving a different feeling.

"I don't know when you started liking me."

"So, I don't know which stage you like the most."

"So, I want to sing them all for you today, as a short review."

The comments were instantly filled with a barrage of messages.

【Wuwuwu, oh my god, you're so kind to your fans.】

【I'm really going to cry!! I've found the best idol in the world!】

【So amazing! It's her birthday party, but it feels like we're celebrating for her!】

And before the birthday party was about to end.

Jiang Ye said, "The next song, I heard it by chance."

"It's very beautiful."

"And most importantly, it's a song you wrote for me."

Jiang Ye smiled and said, "This is the first time someone has written a song for me, it feels very special."

As Jiang Ye finished speaking.

The background in the venue was changed to Jiang Ye's support color.

Silver spotlights fell on her shoulders.

The music also started.

Some comments were confused.

【What song is this?】

Some comments instantly recognized it.

【Damn, damn, damn, no way!!】

【Isn't this the support song 《Fortunately We Met》 that the fan club wrote for Jiang Mei?】

【Singing a fan support song at a birthday party, oh my god, what a kind idol, I'm really crying my eyes out!】

【What is love with an echo, this is love with an echo, wuwuwu.】

This was a song written by fans for her.

Jiang Ye had listened to it once.

Although the lyrics and melody were very immature, they carried the fans' sincere and gentle feelings.

No matter the quality, the feelings were the most precious.

She wanted to respond to those feelings.

The first half of the lyrics described Jiang Ye.

"Maybe no one has ever seen the tears and sweat from hundreds and thousands of days and nights."

"But from now on, you won't be hiding in a dark corner anymore."

"Your future is a never-ending firework."

The second half was what the fans said to Jiang Ye.

"You are my direction, my dream."

"You are my distant starlight, my faith."

"Meeting you at eighteen was a beautiful dream, a fortunate affair."

After Jiang Ye finished singing, she bowed to the camera.

When she looked up, her eyes were red, but she had a very gentle glow about her.

"You said it was your luck to meet me."

"But actually, it was my luck to meet you, and I have today because of you."

"Thank you for liking me."

...

In the early morning after the birthday party.

The 【Five-Star Drug Research Institute】forum specialized group was still lively.

This specialized group was created by CP fans on the first day 5tars was formed.

After that, because the 5tars CP ecosystem was so good, more and more people joined, and it gradually transformed into a discussion group for all things 5tars.

Today's hot topic: 【Did any CP fans win at Jiang Ye's birthday?】

Main post: 【Jiang Mei's social skills are undeniable, but who actually won today? I shipped every teammate at the birthday party, and the sincerity of the VCRs they sent was also comparable. Oh my god, I'm a Jiang Ye fu-wei (a fan who ships a certain pairing) and I'm so confused, I can't choose.】

And the top comment.

【For someone like Jiang Ye, you can't look at the arrows others give her, you have to look at the arrows she gives others.】

【So, the winner of this round is clearly Jiang Ye and Fans!】
