Who’s the most popular Chinese-language singer on YouTube? As his 2019 hit “What’s Wrong” crossed 100 million views on June 17, singer Eric Chou has become the only artist with four singles crossing the 100-million benchmark. His other three YouTube megahits include: “The Distance of Love,” “How Have You Been” and “The Chaos After You,” which just reached 100 million hits on May 17.
Taiwanese singer Jay Chou as well as Hong Kong singer GEM boast three smash hits that both reached 100 million views on YouTube, while Taiwanese rock band Mayday and Singaporean singer JJ Lin each have two 100-million hits. The most-viewed Mandarin song on YouTube, “Light Years Away” by GEM, has generated 236.8 million views since 2016.
In last summer, the 26-year-old Eric Chou also became the first to rock the Taipei Area as the venue reopened for large concerts again, and his concert was even reported by Time magazine as a symbol for Taiwan’s victory in its fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

誰才是在YouTube上最受歡迎的華語歌手呢？小天王周興哲前年的熱門金曲《怎麼了》，於六月十七日已在YouTube突破一億次點閱率大關，這也讓他成為唯一擁有四首破億神曲的藝人！另外三首則是︰《以後別做朋友》、《你，好不好》、《如果雨之後》，第三首在五月十七日才剛破億。
台灣歌手周杰倫、香港歌手鄧紫棋各擁有三首破億單曲，台灣天團五月天、新加坡歌王林俊傑亦有兩首破億單曲。而鄧紫棋的《光年之外》，是網上歷年來點閱率最高的華語歌曲，自二○一六年上線後，目前已創下兩億三千六百多萬次超高點閱率。
而在去年夏天，台北小巨蛋重新開放舉辦大型演唱會，現年才二十六歲的周興哲成為解封後首位攻蛋的藝人，當時他的演唱會還受到《時代》雜誌報導，更被視為台灣抗疫成功的象徵。

The deep waters off the coast of California are home to a bizarre creature: the flapjack octopus. This creature, known for its pancake-like appearance, spreads itself thin on the seabed as a clever survival strategy, making it difficult for predators to spot and capture it. With its unique, umbrella-shaped body formed by webbed arms, the flapjack octopus moves through the water in a graceful manner. It propels itself forward by rhythmically moving its body and contracting its webbed arms. Its pair of ear-like fins, which move independently yet with remarkable coordination, also help it explore the deep-sea environment. These
Bilingual Story is a fictionalized account. 雙語故事部分內容純屬虛構。 I stand by the Miluo River as dusk falls. The court betrayal is too much. I served Chu with loyalty. I forged alliances and fought corruption. But the whispers of jealous courtiers, the murmurs of treason, spoke louder. The king cast me out. The water looks calm. It promises peace. I step in. The river is cold against my legs. I hear shouts behind me — fishermen calling my name. I keep walking. The calls grow louder, but I do not turn around. The water rises to my chest. It pulls at me. I
In Taiwan, people can use a platform to rent a power washer for a weekend or share unused garage space for someone’s storage needs. These are examples of the sharing economy, a consumption model that has gained widespread adoption worldwide. This approach allows people to rent or share assets like cars, homes or even services, typically through online platforms. This innovative model poses a simple yet powerful question: why purchase infrequently used items when sharing is more practical? By making useful but idle resources accessible, the sharing economy turns them into sustainable opportunities. Internationally, platforms like Airbnb and Uber have popularized
Continued from yesterday（延續自昨日） https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/lang Many people may be familiar with flapjack octopuses thanks to Pearl, a charming character from the Pixar film Finding Nemo. However, her portrayal presents several scientific inaccuracies. In reality, flapjack octopuses are deep-sea creatures, which are unsuitable for the brightly lit shallow reef environment depicted in the film. Their primary defense mechanism relies on their reddish coloration, which would be ineffective in the well-lit shallows. Pearl’s famous line, “You guys made me ink,” is another fictional detail that is not consistent with the observed actions of real flapjack octopuses. As common as it is in many other octopus
