The lift landed steadily.

Jiang Ye stood still in the darkness, listening for a long time to the shouts from the audience.

The venue had already started playing the exit announcement, but the fans' shouts for 5tars were getting louder and clearer.

Even though they knew that 5tars was probably already backstage and couldn't hear them, they still wanted to prove something.

It seems like the final show of this tour was very successful.

The group fans were more united than before.

And the original solo fans were also a little infected by the group atmosphere.

Jiang Ye curved her lips, walked back to the backstage from the corridor, and checked her phone.

She wanted to see if there were any fan posts on the forum about the concert's feedback.

But the first hot post she clicked on was.

--【Jiang Mei's Concubine Selection, Who Won This Final Show?】

【Of course it's Lin Shen Ye Mao, the Great Demon King in her first impression, and the childish ghost in her current impression, this huge contrast is making me crazy! In everyone's eyes, she's the Great Demon King, but in your eyes, she's a childish ghost, wuwuwu.】

【Then, shouldn't we have a surname for Ye You Suo Meng, who is a proud ghost in her first impression and a cute ghost in her current impression!!】

【It's still Qi Ye Zhen who is always stable and happy. First impression, little cutie, current impression, big cutie, what does that mean, you're always cute in my eyes!!】

【North Pole circle coming to score points! The crocodile and I both like you very much, Ye Zhi Qiu, the single-arrow feeling in this show has made me cry. But if I have to say, our Jiang Mei isn't without a return arrow, first impression, little pretty, current impression, big baby, kswlkswl!】

Jiang Ye: "..."

She never expected this.

She thought that after the concert ended, everyone would be sentimental.

But in the end, they're still shipping them to death.

Shipping is truly the first productive force of fans.

After Jiang Ye finished packing up, she went next door to find her teammates.

They all managed to keep their emotions in check on stage.

But after they got off, they couldn't help but break down when they heard the theme song playing in the venue and the fans' shouts.

The most exaggerated one was Tan Meng, her eyes were filled with tears, but she was still trying to hold them back.

Cheng Zhen also had red eyes, but she was still comforting her, "The tour is over, it's not the final concert, why are you crying?"

"Who said I was crying!"

Tan Meng turned her head away, pretending to be strong, "It's just that the wind was too strong on stage!"

She usually seemed indifferent, but she was unexpectedly sentimental, she quickly sucked in her nose, trying to hold back her tears, her voice trembled, "... It's not that I'm sad it's over."

Even after her teammates comforted her, they couldn't comfort her.

In the end, Lin Zui sighed helplessly and poked Jiang Ye, "Why don't you calculate it, maybe we won't disband after all?"

Jiang Ye: "?"

How did she not know she had this function?

Jiang Ye mouthed to Lin Zui, "You never believed in this, right?"

Lin Zui quickly mouthed back, "But she believes it."

Jiang Ye looked down.

Tan Meng indeed looked up at Jiang Ye, as if placing all her hope on her.

Jiang Ye: "..."

In order to not disappoint her teammates' expectations, Jiang Ye immediately put on a serious expression.

Although she was muttering to herself, there's no way a group from a survival show wouldn't disband, but there was also a faint expectation in her heart.

"It's not very realistic to not disband."

"But maybe we'll have a chance to regroup in the future?"

Jiang Ye randomly pinched her fingers and then said, "Has this happened before?"

"... At least not in China."

Lin Zui paused and said, "Mainly, regrouping doesn't seem very realistic in China."

Jiang Ye thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

They all have contracts with their original companies.

Once the group disbands, the original company definitely wouldn't want to give the operating company a share of the profits, they would naturally pull them back, some would be put on hold, some would go solo, in short, they would take advantage of their remaining popularity to generate revenue for the company.

Tan Meng's eyes, which had been fixed on Jiang Ye, suddenly dimmed.

Jiang Ye quickly added, "But it's not completely impossible, right?"

After she finished speaking, she actually thought about it.

At least Cheng Zhen's contract is absolutely free.

Shen Zhiyi had told her before that there were some problems with her contract with her original company, and she would try to leave later.

As for their company and Lin Zui's company, they didn't seem like the kind of stubborn bosses who only care about immediate profits.

Cheng Zhen didn't know much about the rules of the idol industry, she just listened to the several of them analyze the possibilities and said, "If it's successful, then wouldn't we be making history? Wow, so exciting!"

Tan Meng mumbled softly, "... I thought you would be the one who wanted to quit the most after disbandment."

"Who wants to quit!"

Cheng Zhen looked around, deliberately raising her voice, "Let me hear it, who wants to quit? Whoever quits first is a dog, okay!"

Jiang Ye teased her, "Aren't you afraid that we'll force you to practice extra for years to come?"

Cheng Zhen: "..."

Cheng Zhen seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then whispered, "I'm afraid."

She paused and said, "But compared to being afraid, I still want to be with you guys."

Shen Zhiyi also nodded, "Me too."

"..."

"Actually, thinking about it, it's not completely impossible."

Jiang Ye raised an index finger, "We just need to meet two principles."

"Profit."

"In other words, we need to be unique and irreplaceable during our time as a group, we need to make our group the number one girl group in China and far ahead of everyone else, and make the group's profits far greater than the sum of our five individual profits."

"We need to make the name 5tars not only stay in the survival show circle, but also beyond the idol circle, we need to make everyone know who 5tars is as soon as they hear the name."

"That way, even after disbandment, several companies will consider the possibility of letting us regroup."

After Jiang Ye finished speaking, the room was silent for a moment.

Lin Zui, who had been in the entertainment industry for several years, had a more realistic perspective, "... Can we really do that?"

"I don't know."

Jiang Ye's eyes lit up, "But, I want to try."

No matter how small the probability is, it's definitely not smaller than the probability of her being reborn.

Even something as impossible as that happened.

Then in her dictionary of life, there is no such thing as impossible.

Cheng Zhen: "Why not!"

Cheng Zhen slammed her hand on the table, "Think about it, if we succeed, it will be so groundbreaking!"

"Okay! I declare that 5tars will go down in history from this moment!"

She paused and suddenly said excitedly, "Then wouldn't I be surpassing my parents' achievements soon?"

Everyone: "..."

No way, no way.

Tan Meng's tears had stopped.

After hesitating for a moment, she said, "... It doesn't sound impossible."

Shen Zhiyi: "I'm in!"

Lin Zui: "It's interesting, I'm in too."

She chuckled, "It's just that if we fail, we'll disband as planned, we won't lose anything."

Jiang Ye: "That's right!"

Although the moon is high in the sky.

But the five of them playing Jenga, it's not impossible to try to reach for it.

They thought they could take a break after the tour ended.

But after the tour, it was almost the end of the year, and there was a series of activities going on.

From December onwards, 5tars had almost no rest, going from various commercial performance stages to fashion events.

And as female artists.

For every event, every red carpet, they had to prepare different makeup and hairstyles.

They walked the red carpet until they were exhausted.

They signed autographs until they were almost bored.

Inside a certain fashion event.

After 5tars took their seats, Cheng Zhen counted the remaining events on her fingers and then asked pitifully, "Can we have a holiday for New Year's Day?"

Tan Meng: "... What are you thinking?"

"Impossible."

Jiang Ye said, "New Year's Eve parties, New Year's Day parties, they're all waiting for us."

"Usually, when ordinary people are resting, that's when we celebrities are the busiest."

"Then what about Chinese New Year?"

"Can we go home for Chinese New Year?"

Cheng Zhen blinked twice and suddenly said, "Ah, if we're on the Spring Festival Gala, then we won't go home, right?"

Everyone: "..."

One dream flew out of the window.

At the end of the year, 5tars had a lot of activities, Guang Ying Entertainment was busy.

Shengrui Entertainment wasn't resting either.

Jiang Ye's original company manager, Xu Lin, also called her and Tan Meng for an online video conference.

Jiang Ye currently has two contracts.

So, her salary is divided between the operating company and the original company before it reaches her.

That's how humble a working stiff is.

So, when the boss says there's a meeting, you can't delay it for a second.

Jiang Ye and Tan Meng finished their schedule, returned to the hotel, and then got together to attend the video conference.

Xu Lin talked to them about the company's business.

Jiang Ye had heard about it, the company's development has been good these days.

Having a reliable original company does make her development better, even raising capital is easier.

So, she was also happy that the company was thriving.

"After New Year's Day, the company will hold an annual meeting."

"You guys should come back for it."

Jiang Ye: "Do we have to perform?"

"What do you think?"

"Of course, we do."

Although the company signed a new batch of trainees this year.

But most of these trainees are still in the training stage, and they still rely on the share of the profits that Jiang Ye and Tan Meng earned after their debut to support the trainees.

And because their performance in the survival show was very good, Shengrui Entertainment quickly became a very influential company in the history of survival shows.

It's not an exaggeration to say that the two of them helped boost the company's popularity.

So, for this annual meeting, they, as the company's biggest moneymakers-no, signature artists, naturally have to come back and perform.

Xu Lin's tone was matter-of-fact.

However, Jiang Ye and Tan Meng were silent.

Tan Meng leaned over and whispered to Jiang Ye, "It feels like that kind of thing, when you go home for Chinese New Year, and your elders start making you perform."

Although Jiang Ye didn't have this experience, she nodded in agreement.

Xu Lin: "What are you two whispering about?"

Jiang Ye and Tan Meng quickly separated, "Nothing."

"Oh, right, Jiang Ye."

"The music production department at the company recently hired a new trainee, he just started his internship a few days ago, but he seems to be quite talented."

"And I heard he's your fan."

"When you come back for the annual meeting, maybe you can meet him."

Jiang Ye was still thinking about what she and Tan Meng would perform, and she blinked slowly when she heard this, "A fan, huh?"

"Then I have to avoid him a little."

Jiang Ye said, "After all, we're idols, we can't have private contact with fans."

Xu Lin: "..."

Tan Meng: "..."

That's a bit of an exaggeration, right?
