I was making coffee in my tiny London kitchen when my phone started vibrating like crazy. Our family WeChat group had exploded with messages about Li Yuehong – the Olympic champion shooter from Shandong who just led his team to another gold medal at the National Games.
My aunt sent a blurry screenshot of the victory moment, followed by three crying-laughing emojis. ‘Your cousin used to train at the same range as him!’ she typed, the excitement practically jumping off the screen. Then came the video from CCTV Sports – the one showing Li and his teammates embracing after that perfect final shot.
But here’s the thing about watching Chinese sports coverage from overseas – the video started buffering right at the medal ceremony. That spinning loading circle became my personal villain as I missed Li Yuehong’s emotional reaction to winning gold for Shandong.
My cousin back in Jinan immediately video-called me. ‘Did you see it? The way Li held his gun steady even when the pressure was highest?’ she said, her voice crackling through the connection. Meanwhile, I was staring at a pixelated version of what should have been a crystal-clear victory moment.
It reminded me of last year’s Spring Festival Gala debacle – when my entire family gathered around different screens across three time zones, all trying to watch the same show. My uncle in Vancouver kept complaining about the audio cutting out during his favorite comedian’s skit, while my niece in Sydney missed the dragon dance completely.
There’s something uniquely frustrating about being so connected yet so disconnected. You see the celebration messages flooding in, you read the detailed match descriptions from relatives, but you’re stuck watching that spinning wheel instead of seeing Li Yuehong’s triumphant smile for yourself.
When the video finally loaded properly (about fifteen minutes later, thanks to some creative Wi-Fi repositioning), I noticed something touching – Li wasn’t just celebrating with his teammates. He made a point of shaking hands with every member of the Shaanxi team that took silver. That’s the sportsmanship you don’t always see in the highlight reels.
My dad, who never comments on sports, suddenly texted: ‘Remember when we watched the 2008 Olympics together? Now you’re watching Chinese champions from another continent.’ He attached a photo of us from that summer, both wearing cheap replica jerseys and eating watermelon.
Maybe that’s why these streaming issues hit different when you’re overseas. It’s not just about missing a competition – it’s about missing those shared moments that make you feel connected to home, even when you’re thousands of miles away.
