Stuck Watching Chinese Shows Abroad? Here’s How Overseas Chinese Can Bypass Geo-Restrictions

I was halfway through my third attempt to watch the China Open badminton tournament when the dreaded buffering circle appeared again. My cousin in Guangzhou had just messaged me about Liang Weikeng and Wang Chang’s impressive straight-set victory, complete with that post-match interview where they humbly said they ‘hadn’t reached peak form yet.’ Meanwhile, I sat in my Toronto apartment staring at the ‘Content Not Available in Your Region’ error on my screen.

Stuck Watching Chinese Shows Abroad? Here's How Overseas Chinese Can Bypass Geo-Restrictions

This isn’t just about sports. Remember last month when everyone was raving about that new historical drama? My WeChat moments flooded with screenshots while I got nothing but pixelated frustration. The smell of the oolong tea I’d specially brewed for my ‘viewing party’ turned bitter as I gave up after fifteen minutes of lagging.

Here’s what most people don’t realize – according to 2023 data from Chinese streaming platforms, approximately 68% of overseas access attempts get blocked. That’s millions of students, workers, and families missing out on everything from CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala to their hometown news broadcasts.

So here’s my question to fellow overseas Chinese: What’s the one show/sport/event that made you desperately wish you could bypass those geo-blocks? For me, it’s always the spontaneous moments – like when my mom video calls to say ‘Quick, turn on Hunan TV!’ because some variety show reminded her of my childhood antics.
