Chapter 78 Moonbeam Girls Group, assembled
Zhang Meiyu, whose English name is Elara, is transliterated as Yilala.

This name is the name of a fairy in ancient Western mythology. This fairy is believed to be the daughter of the moon god. It is very suitable for the group name Moonbeam, and it also potentially emphasizes her identity as the captain.

Zhang Meiyu created the Moonbeam girl group by herself. She did everything by herself, from finding classmates to join the group, to buying songs and finding a recording studio to record them, to finding a photo studio to take photos, to creating and managing the official blog.

Although they were ridiculed as "the ugliest girl group in history", she recruited her own people, left her hometown, and persisted for three years, which was not easy at all. It can be seen that she is a girl who dares to fight and fight.

However, if they want to survive in the entertainment industry, they can't just rely on "making a fool of themselves". When netizens' interest in them faded, they soon couldn't hold on, and the entire team collapsed overnight.

The second member of the team, Luna, whose real name is Wang Zheng, went to college with the help of her family's connections; the third member of the team, Chandra, whose real name is Wang Liran, found a job in a barber shop in town.

Zhang Meiyu first called Luna:
"Hey, Luna, you'll never guess who invited us to make a movie!"

Luna said, "Ilala, I'm not interested. I've already retired."

Zhang Meiyu's excited expression came to an abrupt end. She thought that if she shared the news with Luna, Luna would be as excited as she was. However, she didn't expect that Luna was not excited at all. Instead, she poured a basin of cold water on her head.

Zhang Meiyu asked: "But don't you want to listen first?"

Luna said, "There's nothing nice to hear, Meiyu. I don't want to be made a laughing stock anymore. Have you forgotten how those people scolded us before? My life is very good now. I have a boyfriend. I ranked third in the class in the last exam. My boyfriend and I will get married after graduation. Then I will take the exam to become a kindergarten teacher, with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan. He will find a job in a factory close to home. We won't earn much, but we will definitely be very happy-"

Zhang Meiyu was stunned. She didn't expect this result. "Luna, Cheng Cheng invited us this time! Cheng Cheng! He just filmed "All or Nothing". If we participate in his new movie, it will definitely be a hit!"

Luna retorted: "So what? He will just use us like those people! He will treat us as clowns seeking attention! Ilala, don't you understand? Wake up! There is no room for people like us in the entertainment industry! It's time to end your dream of becoming a star!"

Zhang Meiyu said loudly:

"No! I won't wake up! I will dream this dream for the rest of my life! Not only will I not wake up, but you won't wake up either! Luna, have you forgotten the promise we made?"

"I, I——" Luna choked up and hung up the phone in a hurry. "Ilala, I'm sorry! I'm awake now."

Zhang Meiyu looked at the hung up phone, paused for a moment, wiped the tears from her face, forced a smile again, and called Chandra again.

She is unbeatable!

The call was connected, and Chandra's carefree voice rang out from the phone:
"Hello? Ilala, what's up? I'm washing my hair now! You don't know how busy I am right now. Debuting has its benefits. Now I'm very famous in our town. Every day someone asks me to wash their hair. This should be the head effect that the teacher mentioned, right?"

Zhang Meiyu's heart began to sink as she listened to Chandra's happy tone. She said:

"Chandra, I have an opportunity now. Director Cheng Cheng wants us to film a movie. It's a pretty heavy part. Do you want to go? It just happens that it wants the three of us."

After hearing this, Chandra was silent for a while. After a while, she said, "Ilala, do you know how many heads I can wash in a day?"

Zhang Meiyu: “How many?”

Chandra: “200!”

Zhang Meiyu: "So - you don't want to go either?"

Chandra: "So I have to go! I'm so tired of washing my hair all day long! Where are you now? I'll come to you right away!"

A terrified male voice came from Chandra's end: "Hey, finish washing for me——"

-

The next day, Zhang Meiyu and Chandra appeared at the gate of Luna School.

They took advantage of the security guards not paying attention, followed the crowd, sneaked into the school, and then found Luna's class.

When Luna saw the two of them, she was stunned: "Ilala, Luna? Why are you here?"

Zhang Meiyu and Chandra looked at each other, and without saying a word, they pulled Luna and ran away.

Luna was unable to react: "Hey? What are you doing?" Zhang Meiyu and Chandra did not answer, they just ran.

They ran along the corridors, past the trees, along the garden paths, past passers-by who looked at them in surprise.
Outran the sun, outran the wind, outran the time
They ran to the playground.

Zhang Meiyu shouted to the sky: "I know I'm ugly! But I still want to be a star!"

Chandra then yelled, "I don't want to wash my hair anymore! I don't want to be a shampoo girl for the rest of my life!"

They looked at Luna, who suddenly burst into tears and also shouted:
"I love you both!"

At this time, the sun was setting, and the evening sunlight was dyed orange, shining on three ugly faces in various shapes and sizes.

Moonbeam girl group, assembled!
-

Online, the news that Cheng Cheng was filming his second movie spread quickly.

"Oh my god, Frog is making a new movie so soon? I can't wait to see it!"

"Yan Gou'er is the female lead? Ahhhh, that's great, I can see my wife on the big screen again! Surprise!"

"Let's wait and see. Although All or Nothing was a hit at the box office and in terms of reputation, is there really a good script for a new movie to be shot so soon? I hope they are not rushing to make it just to make money."

".There are too many movies about youth romance. Can there be something new? In recent years, there has not been a good domestic movie about romance. It's either full of melodrama or fierce fighting."

"I just hope it doesn't suck!"

"and many more!"

Some netizens found the highlights:

"Fuck, what did I find in the credits? Moonbeam Girls? The ugliest girl group in history?"

Many netizens followed suit and criticized:
"Pfft~ I almost forgot about them! The memories of the dead have been awakened again, get out of my mind!"

"Moonbeam? Awesome!"

"Sung Cheng's casting is always disappointing."

"Thanks to moonbeam for confusing me again."

"They are so ugly!"

"Is it really okay for some people to be vilified just for the sake of being vilified? For example, Elara is ugly from every angle. As for Luna, I have explained that she is a Tiansai hybrid, from TS City to Sylvan City. Her mother tongue is a Cyrillic tongue-twisting language, and she is not very familiar with Chinese. As for Chandra, she tried so hard that her breathing was out of tune."

"Haha ...

"To put it bluntly, don't they also rely on their looks? They have no real ability. The difference is that other girl groups are beautiful, but theirs is ugly."

"I really think the casting this time is not good. Praising them is a respect for some idols. There are too many idols who work hard silently. They are only like this because of the strong criticism from netizens. Without the criticism from netizens, they really are nothing."

"I agree. Are they not good-looking at all? Their makeup skills are terrible too. So many good-looking local girl groups have failed before. Is Cheng Cheng trying to attract more attention with them? I think it's really unnecessary."

“I don’t think it’s necessary to add one!”

"Let's not talk about anything else. Anyway, the topic has become so popular before the filming even started. I can only say that Cheng Cheng knows how to choose people."

"Smile, marketing expert."
