我在纽约的地铁里刷不出文字，你却在中国时速350千米的高铁上2K直播不掉线……
近日，中西方民间交流再度上演名场面——网红“甲亢哥”在中国直播，引爆国际互联网。
Amid recent "China Travel" fever, more foreign internet influencers are visiting China. Among them, American YouTube sensation Darren "IShowSpeed" is under the spotlight with his ongoing China travel. The 20-year-old streamer arrived in China on Monday, kicking off a journey that has already garnered massive global attention, according to a media report.
据了解，“甲亢哥”是一位坐拥3700万粉丝的网红，因其丰富的表情和激昂的情绪，不少中国网友称他为“甲亢哥”。
3月24日，“甲亢哥”开始中国行。他的第一站选在了上海，并开启了长达6小时的全程“无剧本”直播。据媒体报道，他在上海直播的6小时，吸引了560万人观看，收获了上万条留言。
IShowSpeed's China tour began in Shanghai, China's bustling financial hub, where he streamed live for more than 6 hours, marveling at the city's towering skyline and vibrant streets. As one fan on YouTube put it, "this man is doing the Lord's work in dispelling all of the western propaganda about China in only 6 hours."
在第二站北京，“甲亢哥”穿着花袄登上长城，还品尝了豆汁……
In his next stop to Beijing on Wednesday, IShowSpeed showed equal excitement. Donned in a suit with China's Northeast style print, he visited historical sites like the Great Wall and the Forbidden City, showcasing China's rich heritage.

之后，“甲亢哥”又到了河南登封少林寺、成都、重庆等地，向粉丝们展现了中国各地的科技文化和中国人民的热情好客。
3月27日，中国驻美大使馆发文称赞“甲亢哥”的中国行，称这位20岁的美国人气网红，正在用数字的方式弥合文化鸿沟，并为外国观众创造了解中国的新渠道。
在中国，前所未有的直播体验
“甲亢哥”2022年开始全世界边走边播，两年半以来直播了约25个国家。实时镜头下，“甲亢哥”的全球之旅可谓“事故频发”，有被袭击的，有被诈骗的，有被强行叫停的，有被抢的......
相比之下，中国这样既量大管饱又全程高能进展顺利的，在他的直播生涯里也是不多见的。
Since 2022, IShowSpeed has been live-streaming his global adventures, covering approximately 25 countries over the past two and a half years. His real-time broadcasts have become a rollercoaster of mishaps - from being assaulted, scammed and robbed, to having his streams forcibly shut down. In stark contrast, his China leg stands out as a rare occurrence in his broadcasting career - not only delivering massive content volume but maintaining smooth, drama-free progress throughout the entire journey.
作为一名抽象博主，“甲亢哥”在中国当然也遭到了粉丝的整蛊。有人cos大张伟对他唱《阳光彩虹小白马》玩“地狱谐音梗”；有人穿着梅西球衣面对面“挑衅”他这位C罗“铁粉”。
“甲亢哥”虽然不会中文，但交流起来似乎并不存在文化壁垒，合唱斗舞说来就来。
要知道之前在希腊，他被冲动的粉丝吓得躲进车里报警；在挪威，他甚至遭到围攻，连辫子都被薅下来放网上卖；在日本，他直播时被强行打断过。最离谱的是在美国他自己家，因为有人报假警，警察不分青红皂白就破门而入在直播镜头下把他抓了，这种事还发生了不止一次。

对于“甲亢哥”中国行，一位美国博主说：“美国政府过去一年刚花了16亿美元抹黑中国，结果被一些个人网红在影响力上碾压了。他们只要亲自去中国走走、直播起来，就让美国政府天价宣传打水漂了。”
Regarding IShowSpeed's China journey, an American blogger remarked: "The US government just spent $1.6 billion last year on smear campaigns against China, yet their impact is eclipsed by individual influencers live-streaming authentic experiences. When creators simply travel through China broadcasting reality, it renders those nine-digit propaganda budgets obsolete. That's the poetic irony of our digital age - on-the-ground authenticity trumps manufactured narratives every time."
善良与真诚是无需翻译的“世界语言”
从年初的网上“中美对账”，到以“甲亢哥”为代表的外国网红用ChinaTravel讲最真实的中国故事，都证明两国人民建立友谊是多么简单，语言、文化、国界都不是壁垒。

“真实”和“友善”才是全世界都能听懂的语言，如今的中国，自有跨越国界的力量为他“代言”。中国正用真诚与烟火气向世界递出无需翻译的名片，凭硬核体验全球“圈粉”。从被黑到被粉，虚假的滤镜哪有真实的直播来得精彩。
