CH 94.2

Cen Feng nodded his head in response.

The high-end community has good security, so he watched the two of them enter before instructing the driver to drive.

When he got back to the villa, the room was brightly lit up and a boisterous noise could be heard from the drunken people inside, having fun playing and throwing pillows at each other as they hide. He Sinian was chasing this one and the other one in the next second, he almost bawled in anger as he saw the other members snatch the water cup while the others grabbed the remote-control board.

As soon as he saw Cen Feng enter the room, he immediately lunged toward him. “Captain! Help!”

Cen Feng: “….”

What captain, he obviously looked like a kindergarten class president.

Undoubtedly, the consequence of drinking too much was a hangover the next day, so the seven of them slept until the afternoon, laying on the floor of the living room covered with blankets.

When Wu Zhiyun opened the door and came in, he almost thought he saw a murder scene.

Taking a broom, he beat everyone up.

These seven little brats looked at each other after being beaten awake with a broom and looked at the man who was holding a broom with baffled faces. Not only did they have splitting headaches, but their whole body was also in pain.

And since Cen Feng was not there, Wu Zhiyun pointed at Ying Xuze with a broom and yelled, “Who told you to drink?”

Ying Xuze replied, “Teacher Xu.”

Speechless, Wu Zhiyun waved his hand feeling he was also coming with a headache. “Hurry and wash up, the sun is almost setting! No one is allowed to miss today’s training program!”

Shi Ran looked left and right, “Where’s the captain? Where’s Sinian? Wow, these two people, let us sleep on the floor without any care?!”

Wu Zhiyun glared at him and said, “They went to the company to record songs early in the morning. I thought you were all like them!”

These seven little brats got up grumbling, and when they went to wash up, they found that there were seven servings of pumpkin porridge and hangover soup on the dining table. They were out cold so they all guessed that it was probably Cen Feng who made these before he left in the morning.

Everyone ate their soup and porridge feeling warm as they strongly devote themselves to a new day of training.

After the summer music awards, the ID group’s live performance was recognized by the circle, knowing that they were not the kind of boy group that could only do lip-sync, more paid performances were booked and some took the initiative to approach them.

The only drawback was that they only have a few songs to use for these activities; their original song was only “Towards the Sun”, at best they could only add the song “Sun and Young”. While using other group songs was not a problem but once they performed them it was inevitable for the fans to compare their performance with the original work.

Fortunately, the eight members’ single and Cen Feng’s album has already been put into production. Big names such as Ying Xuze and Fu Xingyan also have creative talents and submitted their own demos to the music department in the hope of producing their own works. And He Sinian, who was called the siren was offered to sing a theme song for a long-running TV series.

The ID group’s career was booming, and of course, ID girls certainly must not drag their idols back and must keep up with all kinds of support and ranking lists, creating a sense of everyone working together.

However, the current domestic entertainment environment was still not open to accepting boy groups. The ID group’s popularity was only known in the star-chasing circle, and even in that circle, only Cen Feng who was the center was widely known, while other members, these fans may not even remember their names.

Because of this, ID girls all justified that their group needs more chances to get out of the circle.

Unexpectedly, this opportunity came soon.

And this was because of Chenxing, they made a big deal as soon as they started to move, and won the spot for the Asian Boys Music Festival for the ID.

The Asian Boys Music Festival as the name suggests, it covers the entire region of Asia, but fact was, the artist from their country, Country H and Country R, were the only ones participating every year.

Moreover, their country has been hanged and beaten by the other two countries in previous years.

Compared to the other two countries, their local boy groups were really incompetent. And because of this most local fans don’t pay attention to this music festival, afraid of being too embarrassed knowing the strength of the local boy group.

Last year, F-Fly did a good job on their performance, so good that everyone sighed in relief thinking finally they had a chance to fight, however, within a few days after the music festival ended, it was revealed by foreign media that all the boy groups on the scene were performing with open mics, while only F-Fly was lip-syncing.

They have been ridiculed by foreign fans all over the countries, and even local fans hated iron for not becoming steel1.

(1feeling resentful towards failing to meet expectations and impatient to see improvements)

If they can’t do a good job, why bother go! It’s the country’s face they were tarnishing!

Seeing that this year’s boy band music festival was coming up again, the fan circle soon came pleading to the companies to not send any boy groups to participate again, after all, they were not strong enough, so why bother go and lose face?

Ergo, Chenxing was able to secure and even had an official announcement.

Originally, the circle fan ridiculed this decision but ID girls unexpectedly turned the tide over as they continued to encourage and cheered at this announcement.

ID Girl: Our group is really popular

The fan circle recognizes the strength of the ID group, after seeing several commercial performances, not to mention that there was Cen Feng, the king of the stage. Even anti-fans would dare to blacken Cen Feng’s strength.

Inexplicably, the local fan circle has this feeling as if they were in a wuxia novel where a martial arts genius who has been obstructed and ridiculed all his life has finally regained his strength and was ready to come out and sweep the rivers and lakes to avenge his shame?

As they say, power comes with great responsibilities. Thus, these expectations made the ID girls a little worried.

And these so-called greater expectations lead to greater disappointment when the moment comes, just in case, and by any chance the performance was not satisfactory, wouldn’t this backlash be doubled and could trample the group?

Should they start to self-comfort——no! Their group was strong, and there was also the king of C position, no matter how they think about it, they felt that this group was stable.

And so, in the middle of tension and anticipation, the music festival arrived.

This time, the venue happens to be in B City.

And they were going to be held in on their home ground which put even more pressure.

Since the venue was going to be their home ground, they mustn’t lose in terms of support from other countries. The ID girls once again desperately bought tickets, and this time, it doesn’t matter who their biases were. They were family, they should help each other out.

The management of the nine support associations also organized a group to discuss the team’s support. According to the program list of the Music Festival, the boy’s group to participate in was determined, and after excluding their support colors, it was unanimously decided to use red as the support color for the ID group.

And it happens to be the color of the national flag. When it comes to national dignity, young people seem to be injected with chicken blood, as they all swear to make the color of the national flag red throughout the venue.

When the time comes, there would not be a single person without lightsticks held up, hence, red was the official unified color for InDream.

How could boys with internet addiction not know what their fans have done? There was no other way to repay them except to train harder.

This time at the festival, the ID group would perform two songs, of course, was “Towards the Sun” and the other was “The Fight” by Cen Feng.

This song was remarkable and dominated the music top chart, it was even praised by musicians in various circles, and whether it was vocal or dance, it achieved high praise. Cen Feng worked with the teachers of the Phoenix Society to change the choreography of the song into a group dance, suitable for ID group performance.

The rehearsal lasted day and night until the day before the music festival.

In order to prevent accidental injury and physical exhaustion, the day before the ID group did not go to training, instead they rested in the villa and recuperate, play games, and watch TV, to recharge their batteries.

Early the next morning, Xu Zhaixing came knocking on their door to start styling the nine members.

Xu Zhaixing personally matched the outfits for today. She as a fan, also valued this performance very much, and so to make sure everything was good, she only asked two designers to assist her and did all the hair and makeup for nine people herself.

This time, she had to stay backstage to fix their makeup so she couldn’t join the large army to support them. Although it was a bit regrettable, she was still focused on the overall situation first. After she finished styling the members, she quietly cheered Cen Feng. “Brother, jiayou! You are the most handsome child in the audience’s eyes!”

Cen Feng: “…child?”

He was now allergic to the word.

After styling them, they went out to check the venue and rehearsal was already ongoing inside.

ID group would be performing in tenth place. After the rehearsal with makeup on, they returned to the lounge but Shi Ran couldn’t sit still, so he urged Jing Xiangbai to go out for a walk. After coming back, he got a lot of autographs from well-known boy groups who debuted earlier.

In the afternoon, fans started to enter the venue.

The ID girls were full of pride and ambition this time, ready to show their momentum on their home ground. After entering the venue and sitting down, they were not in a hurry to turn on the light sticks.

Fans from various countries in the venue have various lights with different names flashing in various colors, there were also quite a few local fans of other boy groups. Seeing an ID girl who was holding a signboard but not lighting it up, she asked, “Why don’t you turn it on?”

The ID girl just smiled silently, concealing their big plan.

As fans entered the stadium, the venue gradually became lively, and there began to be a steady stream of cheers, shouting their idols’ names, except for the ID girls, who neither turned on the lights nor cheered, they were just sitting silently in their seats like a passerby.

It made the other fans around puzzled.

Until seven o’clock sharp.

A voice from every area of the arena shouted, “ID girls get ready!”

In the next moment, the red light suddenly blossomed.

A sea of red, passionately and cooly covered the whole arean, accompanied by the neat and unified “InDream” support sound.
