This one is from 2018, during the SAR operation after the M6.8 earthquake in Hualien.An interesting episode occurred between the Chinese and Japanese teams seemingly about operating one of JP team's equipment. The CN team lead asked the Japanese if they wanted to go inside the rubble together. The JP team lead went: "It's too dangerous", and offered to 'teach' the Chinese how to operate their equipment instead -

The engagement videotaped in the tent as shown actually occured between Taiwan's SAR team and Japan's SAR team, not between China's and Japan's SAR teams (since the separatist government on Taiwan only accepted SAR asssistance offer from Japan and not China).
Other than that, the fact where the Japanese SAR team resorted to teach the local Taiwanese SAR team on how to use their equipment while being reluctant to go into the disaster side themselves alongside their Taiwanese counterpart is accurate, according to the video.
