The People's Republic of China competed at the 2022 Asian Games as the host country, as the games were held in Hangzhou, capital of the Zhejiang province.[1] [2]

Earlier the event was scheduled to be held in September 2022[3] but due to COVID-19 pandemic cases rising in China the event was postponed and rescheduled to September–October 2023.[4] [5]

The host nation, China crossed the 200 gold medal mark for the first time in a single edition of the Asian Games, reaching a total of 201 gold medals, becoming the first country in the history to do so and surpassing their previous record of 199 golds in the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games.[6] [7] [8]

Liu weighed in at 100.8 kg making him eligible to compete in the 102 kg class but the Asian Games used the former Summer Olympic categories, he was forced to move up to a class in the 109's. His lifts of 233 kg in the clean & jerk and 418 kg in the total would break the world standards and set new world records but since he competed in the 109's his records would not be recorded in the 102's.[9]
