The star is legit but sick.

Chapter 696: Tricky Little Song, Tops the World

Of the top five songs on the Asian music chart, three were written by Xu Ye.

Two songs in Japanese and one in Korean.

There are indeed many netizens in South Korea and Sakura who, when looking at this ranking, mistakenly believe that these songs were created by singers from their own country.

For example, in South Korea, after the song "Nobody" became popular, some South Korean netizens said online: "Xu Ye is actually from South Korea."

There are also many netizens below saying that you are right.

Later, Xu Ye released the Japanese and Chinese versions of "Nobody".

In the evening, Xu Ye posted another update.

"In the MV, I can't tell you how I got out of the toilet when I had no paper, but I can tell you how I got out when there was only one piece of paper left. You can learn from this in case you don't know what to do in this situation."

There is still a video in this post, and judging from the surrounding environment, it is obvious that it was shot in the toilet.

Xu Ye was holding a piece of toilet paper in his hand.

If you use it to wipe your butt, this piece of toilet paper is definitely not enough.

"First, we fold this piece of paper in half twice."

"Then we tear off the corner in the center of the paper. Don't throw away the torn corner."

"We open the paper and there is a hole in the middle. We put our finger through the hole and then rub it with our finger. I won't go into details."

"After that, we pinch the paper and wrap it around our fingers, pull it off our fingers, wipe our fingers clean, pick up the torn corner, and wipe the nail crevices."

In the video, Xu Ye was explaining and demonstrating at the same time.

All netizens who watched this video fell silent.

This is a video with flavor.

"Dean, you don't have to explain."

“I have read it and forwarded it to my friend.”

"Alas, you found it by swiping, I found it by searching."

"You lied and can't be cleaned up."

At this moment, the patients of Huohua Hospital felt that there was really a gap between them and the dean.

You would never think of this method unless you are seriously ill!
A few days later, Xu Ye completed the production of all the songs and went to the film and television city to start filming "A Chinese Odyssey".

After arriving at the film and television city, he received a call from Cao Na.

Cao Na now regrets letting Xu Ye participate in this list.

It’s not that Xu Ye’s performance was bad, his performance could be said to be very good.

Just weird.

Before this list was announced, singers from all over Asia attached great importance to it and planned to compete on it.

The songs everyone brought out were also carefully prepared.

But when Xu Ye's song was on the list, it felt like the entire style of the list had changed.

It has changed from a valuable list to a list of funny songs.

Cao Na said earnestly, "Xu Ye, your performance on the Asian Music Chart is very good, that's enough. You have worked hard during this period, you should have a good rest."

"It is our responsibility to revitalize the Chinese music scene," Xu Ye said firmly.

Cao Na wants to curse, are you trying to revitalize the Chinese music scene?

Are there any Chinese songs among the songs you release?

However, Cao Na didn't want to discourage Xu Ye's enthusiasm, so she could only remind him, "The global music chart is about to start, why don't you focus on the global music chart?"

Xu Ye said confidently: "It's ready, just waiting for the list to be opened."

Cao Na suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Xu Ye can write English songs. For example, the song "Yang Fo You" is an English song that foreigners would think is a Chinese song.

After hearing this answer, Cao Na just felt tired.

Forget it, I won’t persuade you anymore.

Anyway, among so many singers in China, Xu Ye is the only one like him. The works of other singers are very normal.

The only problem is that Xu Ye is the craziest, but he is standing the highest.

Finally, Cao Na could only say, "Thank you for your hard work."

What more can be said.

It's very strange. If other Chinese singers said they could compete on the global music charts, everyone would have doubts in their minds.

But after Xu Ye said this, Cao Na tacitly believed in her heart that Xu Ye could be ranked at the top of the list.

As for what posture to use to rank in front, it is not a normal posture anyway.

Three days later, the global music chart was officially launched.

This is an overall ranking based on the previous music charts in various continents.

Some time ago, music charts in various places have been launched for a long time, and it is time to start the global music chart.

Suddenly, there were a lot of foreign songs on the list, and there were also Chinese songs at the top, but the number was very small.

On the contrary, the ranking of "Nobody" is as stable as a rock and it is still in the top five.

After seeing this list, Chinese netizens also started discussing it.

"This list is quite valuable."

“But if you want to get on top of this chart, you still have to rely on English songs.”

"Wait a minute, why did I see "Yi Jian Mei" on the list?"

Although "Yi Jian Mei" is ranked very low, this is relative. The songs that can make the list are all very popular.

Immediately, foreign students shared their experiences of hearing taxi drivers playing "Yi Jian Mei" in foreign countries.

"Yi Jian Mei" is indeed very popular in Europe, and even many young Europeans can sing a few lines of "Snowflakes are falling and the north wind is howling."

This made Chinese netizens dumbfounded.

Is this okay?

Some netizens also went to Xu Ye's Weibo to urge him to do so.

"Dean, I remember you can write English songs, would you like to sing a few?"

“Give the foreigners some Chinglish.”

"I am not satisfied that Yangfo Oil did not make the list."

Xu Ye didn't waste any time and directly released the English version of "Nobody".

The song "Nobody" has versions in several languages, and the group released multiple versions at the time in order to expand the market.

These versions of the song are very popular in their respective language markets.

Now, Chinese netizens can no longer hold back.

You sing one song in four languages, one song in four ways.

However, Xu Ye didn't let everyone wait too long and released another song.

The name of this song is "Only You".

The reason for releasing this song is because of "A Chinese Odyssey".

When "A Chinese Odyssey" became popular, the song "Only You" sung by Law Kar-ying, who played the role of Tang Monk in the movie, was a stroke of genius in the entire movie, and it is still talked about by everyone more than 20 years later.

A special song was later released for this song.

The original version of "Only You" was released in 1955 and performed by The Platters.

After the song was released that year, it remained at the top of the US pop music chart for seven weeks. It was later covered by many singers and used as background music in some movies, commercials, etc.

It is very popular abroad, but since the release of "A Chinese Odyssey", when Chinese audiences hear this song, the first thing they think of is Tang Monk in the movie.

Do you know what "Dangdangdangdangdang" is?
This English song was sung by Xu Ye.

How could his English be bad? His singing was good enough.

It would also be difficult for others to learn this song in a short period of time and sing it the way he wanted.

Now that "A Chinese Odyssey" is already being filmed, let's release this song first.

For the song "Only You", Xu Ye simply shot a video. The video was also very simple. He, the singer who sang harmony with him, and the band recorded the whole singing process of the song.

It will be easier to promote on international platforms if there is a video.

When Xu Ye's song was released, it was pushed on major music software around the world.

Given Xu Ye's current identity and status, it is normal for him to receive such treatment.

In China, many netizens also received push notifications for this song through different channels.

Everyone was also surprised when they saw it.

"Ah? The dean really released an English song?"

"Does he release English songs if he knows English?"

"This is the second English song that the dean has sung himself, right? It's not a direct translation from English, right?"

Everyone clicked into the video and started listening.

When the song begins, there is indeed a prelude of "dangdangdang".

Soon, Xu Ye's singing voice rang out.

"Only you~"

This English can be said to be very standard with correct pronunciation.

“Can you really sing English songs?”

Soon, everyone finished listening to the whole song.

This is a slow lyrical song that sounds very comfortable.

“This song is pretty good.”

"Dean, I'm a little unaccustomed to your standard singing."

"I'll get angry with anyone who says the dean's English is not good again!"

"Anjo University: If you had released this song earlier, I wouldn't have been scolded by everyone."

Abroad, some people also saw the push of this song on music software.

Everyone was quite surprised when they saw the singer's name, it is a Chinese name.

It’s just that when everyone clicked in to listen, they thought it was pretty good.

"This Chinese guy sings very well. Does he have any other songs?"

"He also wrote Nobody? And New Treasure Island? I'll go check it out."

These people didn’t feel anything after watching the song “Nobody” at the top of the list. After all, the lead singer of this song is a lively girl, and Xu Ye played the role of a lubricant in the MV of this song.

His voice is not included in the officially released singles.

When this group of foreign netizens saw the video of "New Treasure Island", they went back to watch the video of "Only You" and were a little bit unbelievable.

"You're telling me these two are the same person?"

"This guy is also a lunatic!"

"Schizophrenia?"

Xu Ye also caused a stir on foreign websites.

The next day, the chart was refreshed and the song "Only You" entered the top 50 of the global music chart.

Although the ranking is not high, I still got in.

After all, this song was made in the 1950s, and it's quite remarkable that it can still achieve such success today.

A group of singers in Asia are numb.

The new songs of singers from Sakura and South Korea have already been released, and everyone thinks that this is the end of Xu Ye’s career.

As a result, Xu Ye took out another English song.

As a Chinese, can’t you release Chinese songs?
You're addicted to stealing, aren't you?
However, everyone was relieved when they saw that Xu Ye's song was not ranked very high. At least they couldn't just kill people randomly.

It’s just that everyone is overthinking it. The first song released, “Only You”, was just Xu Ye’s way of testing the waters.

After this song was released, combined with the accumulation of his previous songs, he became somewhat famous internationally.

This singer from China is also mentioned in entertainment news reports.

Judging from the current situation, "Nobody" is indeed ranked uniquely on the list, and this song is truly popular all over the world.

"Then, let's get to the point."

The next day, this big studio announced that it would upload Xu Ye’s new song at 8 o’clock in the evening, which was still an English song.

“Any new songs?”

"Dean, don't release new songs so quickly. You're using up all your accumulated English vocabulary."

"The dean is as fertile as a sow."

During this period, the Chinese music scene was silent.

Everyone returned to the time when they were dominated by Xu Ye.

This person never stops once he starts singing.

On the foreign Internet, this big studio also announced the news, which also attracted some attention.

When it was eight o'clock in the evening in China, Xu Ye's new song was uploaded to major music platforms on time.

"My sister-in-law who loves listening to music", the famous music critic Jing Xiyue feels that these days are like the Chinese New Year.

With the launch of the Asian Music Chart and the Global Music Chart, a lot of great music has appeared.

Especially Xu Ye has been like a chicken with its blood pumped up during this period, singing one song after another.

Jing Xiyue felt that Xu Ye seemed to be trying to impact the international market, but she also felt that he was not.

Who is impacting the international market so much?

At eight o'clock in the evening, Jing Xiyue entered Penguin Music.

She clicked on the push poster on the homepage of Penguin Music, which contained Xu Ye’s exclusive interface.

All new songs released by Xu Ye will be displayed on this page.

She quickly found Xu Ye's new song.

Penguin Music has also created a special page where you can watch the video directly by clicking on it without having to jump.

There is a line of words written above the video playback window.

"Xu Ye's new song "Never Gonna Give You Up" is released!"

Jing Xiyue is a college student after all, so she should know this English.

"I'll never give up on you." She recited the Chinese words.

Then she clicked the play button on the video.

As soon as the video came out, Jing Xiyue was stunned.

Wow, he’s dancing again!

What's up with this funny-looking dance move?

The prelude sounded, and in the video, it was Xu Ye dancing alone.

His actions were inexplicably a bit intoxicating.

This song is also a song by singer Rick Astley and was released in 1987.

After he sang this song, he went to an old church in London to record the MV. The whole MV was recorded casually, and the magical dance steps were all improvised by Rick.

The quality of this MV was not very good given the circumstances at the time, but it did not affect the popularity of the song at all.

The song topped the music charts in various countries, topping the music charts in 25 countries and staying at the top of the singles chart in the UK for five consecutive weeks.

After the new century, this song was just an ordinary old song, but it became popular on the Internet again after 2007.

As for how you became famous, a simple explanation is that you finally found a link to a learning material, worked hard to download it for more than ten hours, and when you opened it, you saw that it was Calabash Brothers.

In foreign countries, the MV of this song is equivalent to the Calabash Brothers here.

This phenomenon occurs not only in downloaded videos, but also in various places on the Internet.

The creators use various titles and contents to trick you into coming in, and when you open the video you find out it is this song.

This phenomenon is also known as "Rick shake".

The original MV has been played over 80 million times on Bilibili, and is still rising. Its global playback volume has exceeded one billion times.

Xu Ye's singing voice also came out.

"We're no strangers to love~"

"You know the rules and so do I~"

Jing Xiyue felt much better after listening to this song.

The lyrics of this song can be said to be very positive.

A few minutes later, Jing Xiyue heard the end of the song.

“Never gonna give you up never gonna let you down~”

"Never gonna run around and desert you~"

“Never gonna make you cry never gonna say goodbye~”

"Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you~"

Listening to these lyrics is quite inspiring.

Never give up on you, never let you down.

Never abandon you.

Never make you cry, never say goodbye to you.

Never lie to you, never hurt you.

The entire MV has been played.

"This song is very good, it's Xu Ye's style." Jing Xiyue said in her heart.

In the MV, Xu Ye’s various magical dance steps are also a major highlight.

At the same time, many audiences in China also listened to this song.

"I knew that Only You was just bluffing. This is the real dean."

“The MV made me laugh.”

"Xu Ye is also the king of awkward dancing."

It's still morning in the United States.

As soon as Xu Ye’s new song was released, a large number of viewers clicked on it.

Foreigners also laughed after watching the MV.

Everyone likes this joyful feeling.

After listening to the whole song, the foreigners were a little moved, and some of them could even hum a few lines along.

"This Chinese singer is really something."

"His name is Xu Ye. I remember it. I'll look for other songs by him."

"I think this Chinese singer is quite funny."

People also started sharing this song on the Internet and found some Chinese songs by Xu Ye.

Foreign netizens also discovered that this singer is quite interesting.

When the global music charts were refreshed again, the song "Never Give Up On You" entered the top 20 of the global chart, and the ranking of "Only You" also moved up a bit.

At this time, Xu Ye posted a video on the Internet.

He also registered this account specifically.

He is very popular in the global entertainment circle now. After the video was released, he was found by these overseas netizens.

But it is obvious that these foreign netizens don’t know much about Xu Ye.

The update posted by Xu Ye was in English.

"Lethal self-defense instruction. Attention: use with caution."

Netizens found this text quite strange.

Why would a singer like you teach self-defense?

But it seems to be quite useful.

Everyone clicked into the video without any precautions.

When the video started playing, Xu Ye's upper body was shown in front of the camera, and he said, "Today I will teach you a deadly self-defense move."

He spoke in Chinese, with English subtitles.

"This move can only be used when facing a death threat. Don't use it casually at other times."

Some netizens also said: "He is the lead actor in the movie Kung Fu. I have seen the movie and he really knows Kung Fu!"

"This move must be very useful, thank you Xu Ye."

"Is he going to teach us Chinese Kung Fu?"

Xu Ye continued: "This move was created by a Kung Fu master a hundred years ago, but it was soon banned because it was too cruel, so everyone must be careful when using it."

Then, Xu Ye began to demonstrate.

"First, bend your fingers, remembering to keep your thumb outside and not in the palm of your hand to avoid getting hit hard and injuring your thumb."

Xu Ye clenched his hand into a fist.

Then he continued: "Put your fist between your chest and butt."

In the video, he followed the instruction and assumed the position with both fists clasped at his waist.

"Once you've done that, slowly rock it side to side, and eventually the power will reach your hands."

Xu Ye began to shake as he spoke.

However, as soon as this sentence was spoken, the scene changed and seamlessly connected to the MV of the song "Never Give Up on You".

The corresponding character is Xu Ye who was dancing awkwardly in the MV, with exactly the same movements.

A group of foreign netizens were stunned.

"Oh my god, I was cheated!"

"What's going on?"

"This person is sick!"

No one expected that the video, which was originally about self-defense techniques, would suddenly jump to a song MV.

Thinking that they should not be the only ones to be deceived, these netizens immediately forwarded the video to their friends.

“Come and see, this video is very useful.”

Then, more and more people were deceived.

People were not satisfied with Xu Ye’s videos and started to come up with more deceptive tricks.

For example, you can send a message to your friends saying “Go and see the beauties here,” followed by a link. After clicking on the link, you’ll find that what’s playing is Xu Ye’s MV.

Sexy goddess, B2 bomber design, alien photos, etc., all the titles have a gimmick, and when you click on the link, you will see this MV.

Stupid netizens have come up with all kinds of deceptive tricks, and they have learned from Xu Ye's experience to deceive others.

A song gradually began to spread across the global Internet in a strange way.

Even those who had not listened to the song were forced to click on the link and listen to it.

The importance of the song here is self-evident. Not every song can be used for this kind of scam.

The cheerful tunes and the magical dances are a constant source of enjoyment for the silly netizens.

After the global music charts were refreshed again, "Never Give Up On You" directly topped the global rankings with its overwhelming number of plays!
