Film 12 – Sydney Chinese School Australia – Xiao An Levels Up
Languages: Mandarin, English
Xiao An loves playing online games. Just as he was about to level up, his account was suddenly hacked, and all his characters and coins disappeared. He was so angry and frustrated that he threw his tablet on the floor. After calming down, he picked up the tablet and found that the screen had shattered. Xiao An confessed to his parents about his impulsive act. His mom pointed out that his birthday password was too easy to guess and taught him how to set a strong password that included both letters and numbers. His dad also reminded him: when facing problems, stay calm first; don’t make decisions when you’re angry. This experience taught Xiao An that true “levelling up” isn’t just about in-game ranks – it’s also about learning to manage emotions and protect online security.
