Song about Bo'ao

In 2018, French singer Dantès Dailiang and Chinese singer Eva release two songs in four languages (Chinese, Russian, French and English) and two music video clips about Bo'ao [4].

gollark: ... why tie your entire domain to some platform you write projects for?
gollark: Also, two letter ones are *countries*, so you're relying on *two* countries not doing stupid things instead of just one.
gollark: There's not much point in another more expensive domain.
gollark: Keep cc.znepb.me.
gollark: If you configured it wrong during setup of whatever this is somehow, then it won't match. PotatOS has the law enforcement access mechanism (PS#7D7499AB) which also currently doubles as "forgot password" handling, but not every OS does that.
