I was scrolling through my feed during lunch break when a video caught my eye – two Chinese swimmers, Wang Shun and Xu Jiayu, standing poolside after the men’s 100m backstroke final. What got me wasn’t just the competition results, but the way Wang Shun naturally reached for Xu Jiayu’s hand, their fingers interlocking as they raised their joined hands toward the cheering crowd.
The camera zoomed in close enough that I could see the water droplets still clinging to their shoulders, the red marks around their eyes from the goggles, and that particular way athletes’ hands look – slightly swollen from hours in the water, yet still strong enough to grip tightly. Xu Jiayu’s voice came through clearly in the interview: ‘We’re both in our thirties now, still managing decent results – of course we understand each other’s feelings.’
It reminded me of my cousin studying in Vancouver – she messaged me last week saying she’d been trying to watch the National Games highlights for three days straight. ‘The stream buffers every ten seconds,’ she complained, ‘and half the videos show "content not available in your region." I just want to see our athletes’ moments!’
There’s something about these genuine sports moments that hits different when you’re far from home. That handhold between the two veteran swimmers? It wasn’t just celebration – it was thirteen years of training together, of understanding what it means to change techniques in your thirties (as Xu Jiayu mentioned), of knowing the ‘growing pains’ of reinventing yourself while everyone watches.
My cousin eventually gave up and asked me to screen record the important moments and send them through WeChat. ‘It’s not the same though,’ she texted, ‘I want to read the comments, see the replays, feel like I’m there with everyone.’
Which got me thinking – how many overseas Chinese are missing these moments because of frustrating ‘content not available’ messages? That split-second when Wang Shun glanced at Xu Jiayu before their handhold, the way the crowd’s roar seemed to vibrate through the arena floor, even the post-race interviews where athletes’ voices crack with emotion…
Maybe you’re reading this from dormitory in Sydney, or during coffee break in London, or putting kids to bed in San Francisco – have you also found yourself staring at loading screens when trying to watch Chinese movies, variety shows, or sports events? That moment when Wang Shun and Xu Jiayu understood each other without words – shouldn’t we all be able to witness that, no matter where we are?
