Best way to play aoe2 in china. VPN? Voobly china?

Hello guys, I’ve been trying to know how do pro players in China play against Europe or Americans? I’m a foreigner here in shanghai. I have tried voobly with vpn but my ping is like 900. I’ve downloaded voobly China, to play without vpn, but for some reason Chinese players don’t play with foreigners, so I cannot find games easily.

I’ve watched matches with theyo lyx and vivi playing the western gang(vip,daut,Larry etc) with not much lag, making it playable.

Any tips on how to achieve it?

Thanks in advance guys, aoe2 community is out of this world.
