Chinese use neige for both “that” and “umm”.

Let’s break this down.
Steph is signing autographs and everyone seems to be trying to get ya boys attention to sign whatever is in hand.

I think I heard “nei ge” twice.

He said neige before he said good night. Chinese people often use neige while speaking in English because they’re thinking of the English translation. “Neige” is one of the most common phrases in spoken Chinese.

It’s very common to hear Chinese say “neige neige neige....” repeatedly when thinking aloud.

In Chinese neige also means “that one”.

“Ge” is a modifier like saying “one” in English. Zhe ge means “this one” and nei ge means “that one”.

So it could be that he was identifying which one he wanted Steph to sign.

BUMP:

I've been subscribed to this breh who speaks almost every known language and here's a conversation between him and a Chinese man in which the "Neige" is used in the fashion explained already.

Steph wasn't being called a nikka.

It's timestamped, just click play.
