IShowSpeed, a popular U.S. influencer, recently made his first journey to China. His real name is Darren Watkins Jr., but in China he is jokingly called “Hyperthyroid Brother” (甲亢哥) because he is lively and full of energy. With over 37 million fans on the Internet, IShowSpeed showed the world a side of China that many had never seen before.
IShowSpeed’s journey began in Shanghai. In the morning, he played ping-pong with Jackson Wang, a famous singer and then watched the traditional lion dance excitedly. In the afternoon, he went to Shanghai’s People’s Park where a few old people taught him Chinese square dances. When he walked in the street in the evening, some strangers even pressed cups of milk tea into his hands. The warmth of Chinese people touched him a lot.
To follow his kung fu dream, he traveled to the Shaolin Temple. There, a kung fu teacher taught him kung fu and shared with him life lessons from years of training—“It’s pain, but it’s life. It’s pain, but it’s Shaolin. It’s pain, but it’s kung fu. It’s pain, but it’s you.”
On his tour of China, Chongqing was one of his favorite cities. Upon entering Kuixinglou Tower, he believed he was on the first floor—only to discover moments later that he was actually on the 22nd. Then he took Line 2 to Liziba Station where he saw the train pass through a building with his eyes widened. At Jiefangbei, IShowSpeed tried spicy ice cream for the first time in his life. At night, seeing the bright lights and modern city view on a boat ride, he cheered loudly, “I feel so amazed! Everything was so unreal!”
His trip caused heated online discussions in China and abroad. A fan from America said, “Growing up in America I was told completely wrong things about China. But after watching IShowSpeed’s livestream (网络直播), I’m certainly visiting China with my friends soon!”
