Yes it’s the Beijing Olympics!
In 2001, China won the bidding for the Summer Olympics. As we all know the symbol of number eight means luck and fortune to Chinese. It was intense and very emotional. And indeed, favor landed onto their hands. It’s now their turn to impress the world what they’ve got. But it wasn’t that easy. There were Chinese people who were not in favor of it. There were some negative things happened before reaching to this point. One of which, was the major earthquake that shook China as well as the world.
The Opening of the China Olympics was modern, yet very friendly; depicting friendship and unity to the world. “One World, One Dream” is the slogan. There were series of performances as part of the opening of the Olympics; all of them were awe- inspiring and breathtaking. Even kids who performed were also precise in their movements. The spirit of the China Olympics was more concentrated on the youth of the next generation. It was indeed moving for a viewer like me to witness a changed China in front of my eyes. God Bless us all!
