Just wanna share some personal observation.
This Olympics is kinda special. Esp w the Chinese winning so many gold.
I think what flew over a lot of westerners head is the tone in which the Chinese athletes is talking in.
There’s a lot of confidence in the speech. Very different from the generation before.
I assume it’s bc they are all born after 2000 & grew up only seeing China as a great nation. Noticed how they don’t try to seek the approval of westerners anymore? Kinda incredible to watch their interview. This generation of Chinese don’t take foreigners in high regards anymore.
In the past, the Chinese will feel embarrassed that they can’t speak English well.
Right now, the Chinese don’t even bother. They expect you to pick up their language instead.
The dragon is fully awake now.
The world shall adjust.
