Original Note:
James claims he was called "this old white guy" in Mandarin, Through the use of the word "Láo Wài" https://twitter.com/Botanygeek/status/1684863087780773888 Lǎo Wài (老外) is simply the colloquial term for foreigner. That being said, It is sometimes used to reference white people, however it has no relation to age. https://www.omgchinese.com/dictionary/chinese/%E8%80%81%E5%A4%96 https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/laowai
