Yang Chaoyue (Chinese: 杨超越, born July 31, 1998) is a Chinese actress and singer. After finishing third in Tencent's girl group survival show Produce 101, she debuted as a member of Rocket Girls 101. She was named by China Newsweek as one of the most influential Chinese people in 2018.
Yang was born on July 31, 1998, in a village in Dafeng, Yancheng, Jiangsu, China. Her parents divorced when she was twelve. Instead of going to high school, she decided to help support her family and left home to work. She had various job experiences such as waitress, garment worker, flyer distributor, prior to becoming an idol.
In 2016, the eSports game Battle of Balls hosted a girl group contest offering a 2000 RMB salary with accommodation and meals.
Yang was voted to be the most popular contestant during the contest and began her idol trainee career along with ten other contestants.
In 2017, eight of the trainees formed the girl group CH2.
Due to Wenlan Culture's video game industry background and the lack of a dedicated performance theater, Chaoyue did not receive proper training; instead, her jobs were mostly involved in promoting video games at various events.
