When I saw Fan Zhendong’s ‘insane’ shot, I finally understood why my overseas friends keep complaining about geo-blocks

I was scrolling through my phone during lunch break when Fan Zhendong’s latest ‘insane’ shot popped up on my feed. The English commentator’s voice cracked with excitement as he described that impossible return – the ball kissing the net before diving perfectly onto the opponent’s side. Fan’s face immediately broke into that signature ‘big smile’ we’ve all come to love, pure joy radiating through the screen.

But here’s what hit me harder than Fan’s backhand – the immediate messages from my cousin in Canada. ‘Can you send me the full match?’ she texted. ‘The streaming service here says content not available in your region.’ I could almost hear her sigh through the phone. This happens every time there’s a major Chinese sports event or drama she wants to watch.

Remember when we were kids watching table tournaments together? The smell of microwave popcorn would fill the room as we cheered for every point. Now she’s missing these moments because of some digital border. Last month, she missed the entire Chinese New Year gala because of buffering issues – said the video kept freezing right during the best performances.

It’s not just about sports either. My friend in Australia tried to watch that new historical drama everyone’s talking about, only to get the ‘geo-restriction’ message. She ended up watching grainy clips on YouTube instead. ‘It’s like trying to watch through a foggy window,’ she told me. Meanwhile, I’m here enjoying crystal-clear streams without thinking twice.

The irony? Fan Zhendong represents China on the global stage, yet his most exciting moments can’t reach all Chinese fans worldwide. When that English commentator shouted ‘insane,’ he was speaking to the world – except parts of the Chinese diaspora who literally can’t access the footage.

So to all my overseas friends missing these moments – I see you. I’ll keep saving the best clips and sending them your way. And hey, at least we can still share the excitement through texts and memes, even if the streams themselves won’t cooperate.
