This is a propaganda video produced by the the Chinese government, using Chinese pop stars to promote the new "social credit" system with the theme "be as good as your word". The video shows how being a good citizen allows perks like libraries, bike share, business advancement, and so on.

The melody is awful, but the chorus at around 47 seconds in reminds me of a tune I just can't put my finger on.
