I was video-calling my cousin in Toronto last night when she suddenly groaned – for the third time that week, her favorite Chinese variety show froze mid-episode. ‘It’s always like this,’ she complained, ‘either the ‘content not available in your region’ message or endless buffering circles.’ If you’re among the millions of overseas Chinese who’ve faced the frustration of geo-blocked entertainment, keep reading – we’ll get to solutions soon.
Speaking of blocked content reminds me of another kind of exclusivity – the just-announced 2025 Chinese Basketball Hall of Fame nominations. The China Basketball Association revealed their selection plan yesterday: 9 individuals and 1 team will be inducted, including 4 athletes (2 male, 2 female), 1 coach, 1 referee, 3 pioneers, and 1 outstanding team. The three-phase selection process starts with nominations on July 14th.
Back to my cousin’s streaming woes – she’s not alone. Last month’s data shows 68% of overseas Chinese viewers experience geo-restriction issues (2024 Global Chinese Media Consumption Report). The irony? While we’re blocked from watching domestic content, international fans can freely access Chinese platforms… if they read Mandarin.
Remember when we could freely share viral Chinese shows with foreign friends? Now it’s like: ‘You HAVE to see this hilarious scene from Sisters Who Make Waves!’ only to get that dreaded location error. My Australian friend Mark joked, ‘I feel more excluded than a basketball fan trying to watch CBA playoffs abroad.’
Here’s the good news: there ARE ways around these digital borders (coming right up). But first – who do you think should make the 2025 Basketball Hall of Fame? The last induction saw some heated debates about legacy versus modern stars. Drop your picks in the comments!
