This week, we dive into China's National Games – a sporting spectacle so intense, they say winning gold here can be harder than winning at the Olympics. For the first time ever, the Games are being co-hosted by Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao. But what makes this event so unique? Is it the fierce rivalry in sports like table tennis and diving? The glimpse into China's ancient cultural traditions? Or the cutting-edge technology, from seamless cross-border cycling routes to robotic torchbearers? Join Sideline Story as we unpack the stories behind the competition and explore why the National Games are about much more than just medals.
