I was scrolling through Weibo during my lunch break at a local bubble tea shop when I came across Wang Manyu’s post-match interview video. The timestamp showed 3 AM in my timezone – typical for trying to catch up with sports news from back home.
There was something about her voice in that clip – a slight hoarseness that only comes from shouting during intense matches. She was describing her narrow victory over Fan Siqi: ‘When I was leading, I felt my concentration slipped a bit, didn’t pay enough attention to details, and gave my opponent many opportunities.’
Her words hit me differently this time. Maybe it’s because I’d just spent 20 minutes trying to get the video to play smoothly, the screen buffering every few seconds like it was mirroring her struggle on the court.
Remember watching sports with dad back in Shanghai? The smell of tea leaves steeping while we cheered during crucial matches? Now I’m sitting alone with my phone, watching pixels freeze at the exact moment Wang Manyu makes her winning shot.
My cousin messaged me yesterday from Melbourne – she’d missed Wang’s entire match because the streaming platform showed ‘content not available in your region.’ She wrote: ‘It feels like being locked out of your own home while the party’s happening inside.’
Wang Manyu said something that stuck with me: ‘I need to meet my own expectations.’ Isn’t that what we’re all trying to do? To maintain that connection to home, to not miss these moments that define our cultural identity?
The video finally finished loading. I could see the sweat glistening on her forehead as she spoke about giving her all. Meanwhile, my coffee had gone cold from all the waiting.
So here’s what I want to ask you fellow overseas friends: What’s the most frustrating ‘content blocked’ moment you’ve experienced while trying to watch Chinese programs abroad? Share your stories below – let’s see how many of us are in this same boat, trying to cheer for athletes like Wang Manyu from thousands of miles away.
