In 1999, Tsunku held "Hello!China Group" auditions in Tokyo. Over 70 chinese girls participated in the auditions, including Su Meili, Chen Jingfei, Zhou Jia and Huang Ning (failed to get excepted). The auditions took over a year due to school and the auditionees needed to learn more basic Japanese.

On September 23, it was announced that  Meili, Jingefei and Jia made up the new Chinese group "Happy Jikan". Their first single: Subarashii Ongaku O Subarashii Uta, was released September 29, giving them only six days to promote.

2010

March 18, It was announced that Boss Huang Ning would be graduating August 11,2010:

Tsunku's Comment:

Ever since releasing her first book, it seemed like Huang would be writing more and more often. She even wrote Pure Form!!. Huang is very wise when it comes to writing, but it seemed was becoming a priority over being an idol. Huang skipped two practices to work on her writing! so I sat her down one day,with assisant manager Akami and we talked. Huang told us that she wanted to graduate from Happy Jikan. Akami decided a graduation date for her: August 11,2010.

Huang's Comment:

I love Hello!Project and all my fans. But, I am deciding to leave Happy Jikan. Ever since I released my book, I felt like I was actually tempted to leave Happy Jikan, and since I am leader now, I tried to be responsible and forget it. But things started to get worse. The itch started to come back and bother me even more, to the point where I felt that it was taking over my responsibilities as the leader, so when I sat down with Tsunku and Akami, I just confirmed it with them, and eventually talked to the company about my choice. Even though I have chosen to leave, I will never stop supporting the members and I will always remember to check up on them. I have learned so much from them, the seventh generation have even started to represent the group better than I ever did when I was younger! I'm putting the group into their and Yin Lu's hands. So, August 11, 2010 I will be graduating to attend college and later on, become an author and maybe a director, since I've also taken a big interest in movies and script writing'. Until the end, let's continue to have fun together!

April 28, Happy Jikan released the single: Anata wa Watashida Future!.
