Adam doing more to foster Chinese American relations than most diplomats lol.
almost felt like propaganda at some times
Ping-pong diplomacy 2.0
@@jambonniercr8492which parts? Propaganda is for a cause or political gain; the only propaganda in this video is for table tennis and that's totally acceptable. :D
I don't know that's much about china but having this much english speaking chineese and this much people knowing adam while this is the country of ping pong and i don't see why would they listen to him casting game. Plus everybody knows him and there is not a single one table tennis player@@invisi1407
@@jambonniercr8492 if you really let government or MSM force china bad narrative on you, you are brainwashed. Same for chinese. There are lots of good people everywhere it's that simple
I would have laughed so hard if you see a line of the chinese national men and womens team just waiting for their money 😂😂
Imagine if ma long or Fan zhendong comes to challenge you 😂
they would play 0-2 against Adam and offer him $100 instead.
Or a professional 4years old
@@chimysharkindeed…. Both legends but Ma Long is the bigger Legend
Well fan zhendong already was adam's cameraman once and adam also played with ma long in a suit in dubai
they'll get snaked and lose
I'm honestly surprised. I would have expected more challenging players in this video ! Maybe try challenging them at one of their already installed ping pong tables at one of their park where more ping pong enthusiast play :)
It looked like he was at some festival. I think you would find a lot more challenging players in a public park or street
It's not like every Chinese person is a secret kung-fu master either...I found the average level at clubs wasn't even that high when i was there. The total amount of players just ensures their top players reach way higher levels
@@aseq2 bruh I don't see the correlation between being a kung fu master and the average level of ping pong players from different country. There's more density of ping pong tables in China than anywhere else in the world so more exposure to the sport there which is why I would have expected more people knowing how to play. Just like there are more baseball field in the US than anywhere else in the world. Of course not everyone in the US has swung a bat but I'd expect more people to have done so in the US than in China.
Adam is a very good player. I'm not surprised that he didn't lose many games. But most of the people he played against in this video obviously don't play ping pong regularly. Most of them are merely trying to return the ball. Elementary school & middle school kids who play ping pong between classes regularly are better than his opponents in this video, although they may still not be good enough to beat Adam in a serious game. It'll probably be a good match if Adam plays against members of a middle school ping pong team.
I can say confidently that it’s a myth saying all Chinese are good at ping pong.
I honestly hope a local club challenges you to play their best players, similar to Indonesia as it'd be interesting to see how you'd fare against them.
He probably went to China not only to play vs average festival people, I bet there's gonna be more videos with stronger players. Some amateur club or a spot with tables where amateurs play would be fun.
yeah, that would definitely be more of a challenge for Adam, though his bank account might suffer.
adam we love the fact you are making table tennis more popular around the world you have done so much for the community we love you
china doesn't need to promote table tennis 😂
It’s so cool that even people who have no idea how to play still try
for money ofc
My first thought was, ...China?! He'll go broke!! And that expectation made the whole video so much fun/interesting to watch!!
And maybe, just maybe, Xu Xin recommended that park on purpose!!
nah, its just shanghai city, they are just average Chinese. He should go to Beijing or North of China
In Canada, this is the same as hockey. We all watch it. Not that many can acually play it. In fact, table tennis skills might be higher than hockey skills, just because of the cost to play.
the low cost was also why the poor china started to play it so much in 70s
Hockey is so much more expensive than table tennis.
Maybe it's regional specific, but I believe it's way affordable to play table tennis in China than ice hockey. Agreed with your example of hockey in Canada!
@@zihaosong9933this is what he means table tennis has more skilled players because it is accessable to most people.
You went in China and found the worse people to play table tennnis. Crazy, 1 point to win 🤣
I think they pre-screen the players and picked the worst.
easy, its jusst like anywhere else,normal ppl are just normal ppl
@@evilsquizz ok, but in other countries he found good players and their are also normal people. In China neither one 🤔
I don't think he alert any of his fans that he's coming. I think mainly because his platform is CZcams, which is ban in China. So either he has a very small fanbase in China because of youtube. Or he doesn't have the proper platform to communicate with them that he's coming. He had to settle with normies.
Yeah next time you should choose a local park with free pingpong tables there! You'll meet some weird grandpas/grandmas with incredible skills... and unique styles! (but don't panic you won't go broke if you play to 5 points, no pro plays there). But you are correct that people are just people! In China everyone have played pingpong, but not too many of them later become competitive. You just witnessed the WORST part of the Chinese sports system -- the pros are too faraway from the people. It has its historical reasons that back then all sports -- Pingpong included -- are not meant for people. It's only for the pros to compete in the international games for "the glory of the country", and for the rest of us to watch them on TV and shed tears of "how great our country is". Well how you become a pro??? The pros are selected at a very young age and were sent into special "athletic schools" to be trained to be an national athlete...
It's a national funded pyramidal system that works from county to city to province to nation level. Once you are in, you'll be cut from the outside of the world, you'll get paid as if you have a job (don't know if it's still the case now at lower level). You won't see them in your local "normal" schools because they are not in it. They train 24*7 and don't worry about exams. They don't worry about going to high school or university. You don't see them and they don't see you. It's very unlikely in China that your buddy who is the 1st place in your school that will still be let's say top3 or top5 in your regional meet. Because that's the only time you'll notice that these "athletic school" guys/gals exists... They will smoke you and make you feel like a joke... So what's the point of being competitive if you are already not in the system and are guaranteed to lose???
During our adolescent years me and my buddies spend huge time playing Pingpong, basketball and all kinds of sports, but no one has ever think about being competitive or get a coach or even deliberately practice some skills. We just play for fun. I believe that's the case all over the country. In China the pros don't arise from general populations, they are in a parallel system. They don't work their way up in local club races. They don't have the brand exposure responsibility to sponsors, they don't need to get public attention to recruit students to coach to make a living. They are paid workers by the country who doesn't care about the outside. That's why even if China has the strongest Pingpong team, but the level of general population is not proportional to it. Now things are changing but the inertia of the old system is huge. Especially at the national level, for the number of medals, the old system works.
Next time you should try challenge "the other system" and see how your money goes! I bet Xu Xin will know well how you will find that "the other system".
I had a grin on my face during this whole video. Love it!
This was not my experience. In 2005 I travelled to Xi'an and played in a park that had multiple tables. The worst player I faced was about a 1300 level. Most were 1700+ and just casual players. The "Pro" table players allowed me to play a few games and I got destroyed.
he picked a casual park that doesnt have ping pong type events
GGs bro, nice play, and the people there look so happy and joyful 😊. One day or another I'm gonna visit china hopefully I guess
So nice of you to introduce table tennis to so many people. This is actually the first place I started watching table tennis as well.
You should visit a ping pong park where actual players go like Zhang Jike did.
Oh so sad!! I was so excited at the beginning, looking forward for tougher competition. Adam should go to some Chinese park with TT tables and pick himself victims there😅 somebody who can at least play somehow
Come to TORONTO already ADAM! I been asking for over a year now 😢
Yeah come
Yesss Adam i will totally beat you
while you're in canada do vancouver too plz
Yes plz! 🙏
Great vidoe as always! Come to Copenhagen (Denmark) next! :D
How about Hong Kong Next XD
Looking forward to seeing you ❤
glad to see you bring joy and smile to those people
I'm really surprised not many people could beat you over there! Impressive!
I’m pretty sure basketball is beginning to take over now
He's playing at a park where people go for events, he's not at a park where people go to play table tennis, if he went to one of those he'll meet a lot of higher skill level people
as always, you're so entertaining Adam 🏓 hopefully you'll do more videos like this
btw, mesmerized by Rita's beauty hahaha
Found her Tiktok, damn........
i expected more challenging players to show up haha well maybe should promote in weibo or xiaohongshu before the event, so that those interested cn mark and prepare before the dayy. there must be some kind of events or tournaments carried out that few days that's why a lot of skilled players dont manage to show up. however well done for the video like it sooo muchh hope to see adam back in china very sooonn
The family is so wholesome:D
They are wholesome but completely bereft of ping pong skills. Bit of a farce going to China and playing no-hopers. It's not exactly difficult to find talented players here.
Rita's stlye is perfect
Thanks for the video and welcome to China Adam! :)
Hey Adam!!
This is Shouvik
It's Fun seeing you play and hats off!! to the way you respect this game. I love your passion
Why don't you come all the way to India, we all would love you being here?
I would love to visit China someday!!
Come to South Africa (I just missed you at the world cup), would love to play against you. You have taught me so much, from serving, to your snake, to even just your game attitude. Thnx for everything
How is no one at least a decent player in a pingpong like event?
This shows how media influneces our minds
lets not jump to stuff like media, someone said a good comment, China has yt banned so he can't announce to his fans that hes coming....secondly he looks like hes at some festival...its like USA is dominant in basketball but take a really good basketball player with a portable court and he will beat 9/10 ppl easily or even 10/10
@@Red4350 I don't have high expectations too..at least I expected an average player or even below average but everyone he played with is like I've never played it only watched players💔
Compared to China being a high tt participation country,indonesians were much better excluding those professionals and those who came after their friends called them..
Hey Adam! I’m an international student studying abroad in Shanghai. As a fan of yours, I’d love to play a game of table tennis with you. How long are you staying in Shanghai for? 😂😂
Hoping this reaches him 🤞🤞🤞
So glad to see you finally got to experience Chinese folk competitions!！
I love your content❤❤❤
Could you go to Barcelona, Spain next?
Come to New Zealand, Adam. We’ll give you a good challenge at Empire table tennis club in Wellington😅
Pingpang is less popular among young guns in China. My parents and uncles play far better than me. You may have more fun if you play against 70s-80s.
hi Adam, I love Table tennis even if I'm not playing as much as I want. but I love your channel and watch you everytime. I wonder if you ever been in Italy (my country) and do a similar challenge there. It's a beautiful country, even I'm sure table tennis is not very popular there. If you would like to come by I would suggest to maybe get in contact with some gyms or clubs. Love to see all the new videos in this channel and one day maybe to see you in one of our beautiful city. Thanks for all the awesome work you do and spread this wonderful games around the world.
Adam, your videos are always entertaining.
Still waiting for India's 🇮🇳 Video btw best content ❤🏓
We Imagine Adam in PAKISTAN🇵🇰
😂😂😂😂
When I was young, at Chinese New Year, the Great Hall of the People in Beijing used to hold parties for five days, the members of the national table tennis team did the same, people waited in lines to challenge them, everybody got three chances, you only need to win one point to win a racket ticket which can be used to exchange for some prizes😊
Most wholesome youtuber ever .
In China? Your are incredibly brave!
how is he brave
Dude, if it was russia I would say brave. China is normal country
bro, as far as i know, when u are a guest there, they are pretty chill.
@@mfahz4067The start of the video explains that some of the strongest table tennis players are in China, if they are all really good and win then he's going to lose a lot of money. That being said I haven't watched the video yet.
@@olgierdanotv1893 I think he meant that table tennis is a huge sport in China and most people are very good at it
yay the series is back
hh great edit! wish u back to shanghai soon!
Hey Adam! Would love to see you come to Sri Lanka! Not many people visit here but it would be lovely to see you visit!
Awesome as ever!!!
If you ever come to Vienna, I will be there to play! :) Epic video as always!
yes please come and play
At my university in Germany, there were quite a lot of Chinese students. Two of them became good friends. None of those two plays table tennis (they prefer basketball), but once they told me about an annual Chinese tournament in town as they knew I had played competitively in my childhood. So I participated. There were around 30 players and, unfortunately, I played the later champion of that tournament. So I lost the first match and got to the b-round and won all matches then. I think, in total there were 4 to 6 players better than me of the 30. One of them was German as well. In order to that, I think it is simply a matter of numbers. China is a huge country with more than 1 billion people and table tennis is a relevant (not the only!) sport for them. So there are many great players, but also many poor players (like anywhere).
Now you should come out to okinawa! The table tennis here is a blast!
If you went to any of those parks where a bunch of retirees play all day on the free tables it would be a different story. They're amazing.
Ola adam huge fan keep up the work 💙💙💙💙
I am a Chinese American, and I am from Shanghai, it is a beautiful place and I recommend visiting 上海中心，外滩，Disney， etc.
Yeah .. come to see Morocco ❤
As entertaining as ever. Tq
The “mine mine mine” at people trynna catch the ping pong ball killed me 😭😭
Hi Adam, this is chin Huat from spore, I been to recent spore smash but didn’t get to see you but did heard your voice during the commentary. Nice! Hope you can one of the day come spore for above challenges! I am sure many people will be happy to see you here! Keep on ponging! Cheers!
Yeah here we can give you much better a challenge:)
I feel like having them make a line in order of ability before playing them could be a fun concept
you should go to those older parks in china and play with the old ppl there. they are really good.
He deserve more subscribers.. fr
Adam needs to go to the local parks where the uncles and aunties play. 😂
Love your videos! Come to Romania ❤
Just subscribed, Sydney Australia next please 😩😩
I was born in China, I grew up in China. I lived there in China. I learned Table Tennis in China.
I do not know how to play Ping Pong. I suck. But I still enjoy it.
I don't even know how to play ping pong, but I watched the entire video. Such an entertaining video.
Hey Adam, I have been your subscriber for so long and watch almost all of your videos. Please come in Bangladesh there are so many good players here who know you and would love to play with you. We can all have a good time together. It will be such a pleasure to have you in Bangladesh. I hope you notice this comment someday. Wish you all the best ❤❤
I just rewatched Balls of fury for the 20th times and just realized that you were in that movie playing vs the German hehe.
You are amazing Adam! Good job!
Adam went to a park where there are no ping pong players but young people attracted by being on the camera and connecting with Adam, as a result, from the perspective of connecting with young Chinese people, this is great. But from the perspective of table tennis, well.... I see this as an opportunity missed to do something else in China in addition to what he did,... go to a park where there are lots of tables outdoor and Chinese people of all ages playing every day. An exemple if the outdoor ping pong facility at Chaoyong Park in Beijing, about 20 tables at one spot with people playing all day long. That would be fun and will lead to great games with you, some grandpa and grandma would give you a hard time. The other thing that would be interesting is to go to a sport high school like the one that was next to the hotel where I stayed on about 10 of my 40 trips to china. I could see from my window teenagers playing at about 15 or 20 tables outside in the school yard, the caliber was very good if not great. Such videos would give us an insight into what kind of base there is for table tennis in China which leads to so much strength on the provincial and national teams.
The end review is fair and honest. Not everyone there is a decent tt player the pro that plays well are few only.
If you ever want to do this format in Italy, I highly reccomend you do it in the "Parco del Valentino" in Turin! Will be waiting for you
Looking forward to playing you in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, Adam 😁
Adam, you are the best ❤❤❤
The way Jolin said “nervous” ☺️🥹🥹😍
I've played in a fair number of table tennis clubs in China, in various cities - surely not as many as you have, but a fair amount. In my experience, comparing to playing in clubs in America, the weakest players in the Chinese clubs are stronger than the weakest players here, presumably because everyone learns some basics in school. But the strongest players in clubs are sometimes better here in the U.S. than in China, because the strongest players in Chinese cities aren't playing in their local clubs, they are working in training centers or playing professionally in some capacity. Here in the U.S. you can walk into a local club and face a national champion - that would rarely if ever happen in China. I suspect the same is true in reverse for sports that are more popular here, like baseball.
that family was so wholesome
i love this video! Could you please do it in denmark, i really want to challenge you, and im a strong player. Played for 2 years
I'm looking forward to come to Taiwan again. I'm a big fan of you 😍
Does Adam post anywhere where hes going to be hosting these or he just does it randomly? Would like to attend one in the tsbles by 33rd in NYC if he ever does it again.
Please come to Korea!! We are looking foward to play with you😆
Fun vid. Come to Venus next?
Well, the average person still seemed a lot better than in America. I feel you would’ve gotten more competition if you played in the street like you did in New York.
Thanks for the vid as always!
The table is Xuperman, so where is Xuxin?😂😂 I'll work in Shanghai next year. If Adam come China again, I'll go to challenge you.❤
Hey Adam！Come to Hong Kong. I’m looking forward to it!
I like watching your videos. If you want to find someone who is good at table tennis in China, you can go to the park and play with those guys. Many of them are masters with special skills.
I feel like my grandpa could get a point hes insane and has been playing since childhood but i swear this guy is holding back on me because even though im improving he just easily matches me lol
It will be nice to see you in Tbilisi, Georgia. At least you can drink how much you want in country where wine was born :D ;)
It would be very challenging for you to go to the park and look for the older people who play ping pong. Those people are the real OG ping pong players hiding in the world.
Hey Adam, come to Linz, Austria! 🍻
The good players were probably busy training or at a competition during that time. I do wonder if China has much in the way of amateur tournaments where regular people (I.e. below provincial team level and not in school) could compete for fun.
Adam, you should come Hong Kong as well
It is really surprising that the street level in China is so bad. You played more than 50 players and most of them were on absolute beginner level. I remember seeing your video with the same premise when you played in a park in Cologne/Germany. Most of those players would have busted these Chinese players up. 😅 I mean, of course on an international level China clearly is world number 1. But that exactly is the reason why I was more than surprised to see the level of these players. Anyway, I enjoyed watching the video very much, thanks! 🎉
Let's go to Czech republic!💪🏻😁
I think ping pong is not as popular among younger Chinese people compared to the older generation, if you go to a public park with more older folks you might find more people that are better
Truly hope you are safe Adam and not near the earthquake in Taiwan?! Peace and love at such. a tough time. Leo
I have to admit that you have balls ✊
Дякую Адам ❤
Jolin at quite the end is pretty and sweet!
You should do this in Brisbane, Australia
Adam that kind event are mostly young people, you should go to rec parks, which is the final boss usually spawn
