May 20，2022，with the broadcast of the show "Sister Who Rides the Waves，the “Sweetheart hierarch” Cyndi Wang became popular again by singing her song Love You①. Actually the song Love You is not original，and it is adapted from PAPAYA（a South Korea girl group）’s song，Listen to Me②.
And since the last century, many Chinese singers or bands have the experience of "refer" songs from other countries. The famous nursery rhyme “Two Tigers”③ is adapted from French nursery rhyme "Brother Jacques"④. In the end of the last century，the Hong Kong music scene had become popular among Chinese youth.Some of their songs also have a certain popularity now. But after my research, many of their songs are covers, and their original songs are mainly Japanese. It was popular to buy the rights to songs and then cover them. You may wonder why they don't write their own songs. It is because they had a fast pace, and the singers had to release several albums every year, so they had to use other people's songs if they didn't have enough creative ability. Another reason was that communications at that time were not as developed as they are today, so their "reference" could not be easily detected by the public.So this method became the choice of most singers at that time. (Singers do that even now.) And this also aroused heated debate since then. Some people think that as long as the song sounds good, it doesn't matter whether it is original or not. Others think creation should be encouraged. But music is also a manifestation of culture. If we blindly follow the footsteps of others without our own innovation, the development of our musical culture will be limited. Encouraging creation is a need of cultural development. Here are some of the "borrowed" songs and their original songs：Priscilla Chan’s Thousands of Songs⑤ is adapted from Kondou Masahiko’s Yuyake no uta⑥. Aaron Kwok’s Good Times & Bad Times is a cover of kazumasa Oda's song of the same name. And Hacken Lee’s The Red Sun⑦ is adapted from the Japanese band Otaika Man’s famous song，What’s the most precious⑧...
In addition to Hong Kong, there are also covers in Taiwan's music scene.

 '''3.Funeral Culture Connotations'''
 The mourning ceremony of the Tujia family has a distinct function of social edification and is passed on as a cultural phenomenon, mainly because it has a corresponding social function, and its function in expressing emotions is more significant. The descendants send the bones and souls of their ancestors to the Elysium, which is carried out in a rich jumping mourning, which can also be a great adjustment for the descendants' psychology to settle their souls. On the temporal as well as the spatial level, the selection of auspicious days for the funeral and the sending of the soul to the blissful world are all helpful to appease the soul of the descendants.

 ==Xu Zhiyuan 徐致远 - The “reference” of Chinese Music==
 May 20，2022，with the broadcast of the show "Sister Who Rides the Waves，the “Sweetheart hierarch” Cyndi Wang became popular again by singing her song Love You（1）. Actually the song Love You is not original，and it is adapted from PAPAYA（a South Korea girl group）’s song，Listen to Me（2）.
 And since the last century, many Chinese singers or bands have the experience of "refer" songs from other countries. The famous nursery rhyme “Two Tigers”（3） is adapted from French nursery rhyme "Brother Jacques"（4）. In the end of the last century，the Hong Kong music scene had become popular among Chinese youth. Some of their songs also have a certain popularity now. But after my research, many of their songs are covers, and their original songs are mainly Japanese. It was popular to buy the rights to songs and then cover them. Some may wonder why they don't write their own songs. It is because they had a fast pace, and the singers had to release several albums every year, so they had to use other people's songs if they didn't have enough creative ability. And Japanese music is developing very well，so their songs are worth learning. Another reason was that communications at that time were not as developed as they are today, so their "reference" could not be easily detected by the public.So this method became the choice of most singers at that time. (Singers do that even now.) And this also aroused heated debate since then. Some people think that as long as the song sounds good, it doesn't matter whether it is original or not. Others think creation should be encouraged. But music is also a manifestation of culture. If we blindly follow the footsteps of others without our own innovation, the development of our musical culture will be limited. Beyond's Wong Ka Kui even said that "there was no music in Hong Kong"，because he thought these "borrowed" songs were not their own things. Encouraging creation is a need of cultural development. Here are some of the "borrowed" songs and their original songs：Priscilla Chan’s Thousands of Songs（5） is adapted from Kondou Masahiko’s Yuyake no uta（6）. Aaron Kwok’s Good Times & Bad Times is a cover of kazumasa Oda's song of the same name. Hacken Lee’s The Red Sun（7） is adapted from the Japanese band Otaika Man’s famous song，What’s the most precious（8）. And Richie Jen’s Sad Pacific（9） is adapted from Sachiko Kobayashi’s Happiness（10）... Even Jacky Cheung, known as the god of songs, covers some of his songs like this.
 In addition to Hong Kong, there are also covers in Taiwan's music scene. Green Apple Paradise by the Famous Taiwanese boy band Little Tigers is adapted from the Japanese band Shounentai’s song What’s your name. Even the form of the group is modeled after them, three high-spirited teenagers. And Christine fan’s song The Original Dream（11） is adapted from famous Japanese female singer Miyuki Nakajima’s song Riding On The Silver Dragon's Back（12）. Rene Liu’s ，Thereafter（13）is adapted from Kiroro’s song，For the future（14）. It is worth mentioning that the original song is about family love, but Liu adapted it to write about love. And Teresa Teng also covered some of her songs. So this was a very popular phenomenon at the time.
 And many songs in Mainland China are created by "reference".Chinese band The Flowers ’s song Xishuashua（15）is adapted from Japanese band puffy’s song Kimi Ni Go!（16）. Comic Boyz’s widely sung song My Youth Souvenir Book（17）is adapted from Japanese group I WISH’s For summer breeze（18）. Chopstic Brothers’ song，Old Boy（19） is adapted from Ohashi Takuya’s song Thanks（20）...
 Although Japan has absorbed a lot of culture from China, many modern Chinese songs are covers of Japanese songs. In terms of pop music culture, China still needs to improve. Chinese pop star Jay Chou has said，“Don’t let the Korean Pop music become the mainstream，Chinese Pop music should be the best.” Jay Chou’s “confidence” is because his songs are mainly original. When his "In The Name of the Father"（21） premiered, it was broadcast on more than 50 stations across Asia, with an estimated 800 million people online. His ability and fame lend themselves to this statement. There were many original songs appearing in the Chinese music scene at that time. However, in recent years, the Chinese music scene is not as good as before.
 In recent years, due to the development of the Internet, we have access to more songs, and singers will choose more obscure songs to copy. Chinese band TFBOYS’s song In the name of faith（22）is adapted from Animation Theme song，Only my railgun. And this was discovered shortly after it was released. Wang Heye’s song Strong Wind（23）was accused of copying Michael Jackson's Billie Jeans. Some singers plagiarize without admitting it, such as folk singer Hua Gruel. Most of her songs have been accused of plagiarism and she’s not ashamed of it. Her fans defend her, saying that as long as the song is good, it doesn't matter who sings it. However, such behavior is not only disrespectful to the copyright of the original work, but also detrimental to the development of song culture. In addition, some singers choose to “refer songs from their own countries.Therefore, some people lament that the Chinese music industry is falling further and further behind. Chinese pop music culture should present its own content to the world, instead of borrowing others' content. In fact, famous original Chinese songs are also covered by foreigners.So we should enhance cultural confidence and encourage originality.
 "Reference" is indeed a shortcut, but if we want to go further，originality is needed.

 Buytogether(PDD), also called Pinduoduo in Chinese, is a mainstream e-commerce application of mobile Internet in China, and a third-party social e-commerce platform focusing on C2M(Customer-to-Manufacturer) group shopping. It was founded in September 2015. Users can buy goods at a lower price by buying them with their friends, families and neighbors together.

 Internet technology breaks the limitation of time and space; various social media provide interactive platforms, strengthening users’ connectivity. The essence of Buytogether's going viral is to take the social media as carriers to carry out e-commerce transactions, namely community e-commerce. Community e-commerce manages the users and potential users of the platform in a new way, paying more attention to providing users with more interactive communication and scenarios, so as to facilitate users to find groups where other people have similar interests and needs to their own and hence exchange shopping information and conduct group shopping at a much lower price. In Buytogether, users can get lower prices when they share the links of what they want to buy with their friends to form a group for shopping. The characteristics of Buytogether's community e-commerce are as follows:
-.Targeting customers in the sink market.
+.Targeting customers in the sinking market.
-The "internet traffic(data)-centered" competing mechanism of traditional e-commerce platforms represented by Taobao and JD makes the main market of online shopping be occupied by leading brands with abundant funds. In the early days of establishment, Buytogether effectively distinguished its main customers from those of traditional e-commerce platforms, and positioned the main customers in the sink market to buffer competition in the industry. Buytogether supplies products at lower prices than other traditional e-commerce platforms by some strategies like “the more you buy, the lower prices are”, shopping in group and enabling users to bargain, thus attracting a large number of consumers in the sink market and small cities.

With its decentralized internet traffic(data) distribution and low-cost entry threshold, Buytogether has brought opportunities to start-ups and niche enterprises. Many little-known businesses including some self-employed ones have flooded into the platform as well. Both parties of a deal in the sink market are attracted by Buytogether’s low prices and low costs. Consumers gain lower prices and suppliers acquire more customers; the trading system of Buytogether is gradually improved.

 Traditional e-commerce platforms have broadened online transaction channels, but have not effectively shortened the transaction process between suppliers and customers. Therefore, the profit space of suppliers and consumers has not been totally released.
-By targeting the sink market, Buytogether has attracted a large number of suppliers of different brands to the platform to talk with customers directly. Users can form groups and make orders on Buytogether according to their interests and needs. The platform will skip the procedure of channel distribution and feedback users’ needs to suppliers directly to shorten the decision-making time and reduce the inventory backlog.

 The docking of transaction terminals reduces the profits middlemen can get, releasing the profit space for users and suppliers.

So it becomes a main advantage of Buytogether that attracts stores and suppliers at lower operating costs.
