Hit song Little Apple became so popular after it came out in late May. In China, you may hear it on a bus, or even in a small village.

Little Apple is a song for the movie Old Boys: The Way of Dragon（老男孩之猛龙过江）. The song’s huge success has also made more people see the movie. The comedy took US $17 million in its opening four days.

“The song Little Apple is so popular. After hearing it, it’s like ‘I’m brainwashed (洗脑)’by the song. So I came to see the film,” a man said.

“It’s a good story. But the reason I’m here at the cinema is the song Little Apple.” Hui Qing, a college student, said. 

“Many people have come to see the movie, so we added more screenings for it. The film now accounts for 20 percent of the total screenings—it’s quite a good performance for a homegrown movie,” a cinema clerk said.

Old Boys: The Way of Dragon is based on an online short film called Old Boys. The 40-minute film about youth and dreams got nearly 70 million views on a video website, and was popular among people born in the 1980s or later. 

“What is popular online is a good indication of what will be popular with young people. And this movie is a good example,” businessman Chen Su said.

Some have criticized Little Apple for its low quality, but the song continues keeping popular.
