Throughout China's Olympic history, development is certainly not easy.
From 1952 to 1976, China did not participate in a total of six Olympic Games.
The reason is that the International Olympic Sports Committee only recognizes the "Republic of China" and does not recognize the Republic of China.
It was not until 1979, when the International Olympic Sports Committee restored China's legal seat and made it famous and upright, that the country paid attention to the Olympics and began to establish relevant departments.
After participating in a Winter Olympics in 1980, China participated in the first Olympic Games since the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1984, and the glory of the great nation officially began to appear in the entire world.
In the 1980s, there was a shortage of domestic spiritual products, the spiritual needs of the Chinese people could not be met, there were few movies and TV dramas, and local stations did not have satellite channels. Only CCTV programs could be watched nationwide, among which the Olympic Games, which were held every four years, became the people's
Things that the masses pursue spiritual beliefs, bloom national consciousness, and promote the style of our great country.
When Xu Haifeng won the first gold medal belonging to China in the pistol slow fire sport, the streets and alleys across the country were filled with excitement, both men and women, and the shame of being once "the sick man of East Asia" was wiped out.
Since then, people such as Deng Yaping have also become a spiritual belief that blooms a sense of national unity in the minds of the people.
"It would be great to hold an Olympic Games in our country sometime."
People in the 1980s saw that the Olympic Games were the focus of the world, and China, our great country, once stood on top of the world. Even though the country has experienced ups and downs, its history still exists. If the country can return to being a world power and attract global attention, wouldn't it be a miracle?
A prosperous thing?
The patriots at that time expressed this vision one after another. With the people's support, the country applied for the Olympic Games for the first time in 1991, hoping to win the right to host the 2000 Olympic Games. However, in the end, it failed, and it was defeated by 2 votes.
People across the country mourned and bowed their heads over this.
However, it is not too late for a nation to rise, and it will not be cold when the destiny of the country comes.
Summer, 2001, July 13, 10:10 pm Beijing time, location: Switzerland.
The then President of the International Olympic Sports Committee Samaranch announced - "The voting results are now announced. The city where the 29th Olympic Games will be held in 2008 is..."
The people of the country, the college students in front of the TV in the cafeterias of major universities under special circumstances, the athletes at the provincial and national levels, the relevant leaders of various sports departments...
Few people understand English, but everyone understands two words - "Bj".
"Boom -" the moment these two words were spoken, joy and screams filled the streets and resounded throughout the world.
Since 1840, it has been weakened, ruined, divided, resisted, unified, and developed for 161 years!
After 161 years of ups and downs, compromises and low-key development, from the moment when the whole country celebrated, we finally saw a glimmer of hope!
Seven years have passed since 2008. In order to show the magnificence of this great country and the crystallization of five thousand years of culture, the "Bird's Nest", "Water Cube", "Folding Fan" and other unique and dazzling Olympic pavilions belonging to Chinese culture have been erected side by side.
The world was shocked and watched.
Starting in April, the torch relay is expected to run for a total of 137,000 kilometers over 130 days, breaking the mileage record in the history of the Olympic Games.
Compared with the safety hazards and frequent terrorist incidents and other accidents in the Olympic torch relay in the past, although there were stumbling blocks during the Beijing Olympics torch relay, the overall safety and smoothness from beginning to end also made the world sigh and admire China.
The country’s organizational mobilization capabilities and security awareness.
Now that the torch relay has passed 125 days, it is about to end and it is about to arrive in the capital. The eyes of the country and the world are focused here, looking forward to the arrival of the magnificent torch that symbolizes a community with a shared future for mankind.
"The route to the capital has been announced!"
"Is there Chang'an Street? Then you have to go through Tiananmen!"
"Awesome! Let foreigners see the magnificence of our Forbidden City!"
"Come on! There must be a place for me in front of Tiananmen!"
"Brother, don't worry, the time is not up yet. Why don't you go get a tent and wait?"
Each city's route for the torch relay will be announced in advance, but it will not be announced very far in advance. This is for safety reasons to avoid early preparation or trouble.
During the more than four months of the torch relay, 19 cities outside the country and 116 cities within the country were visited. If there is any city that attracts the most attention, it must be the capital, Beijing.
When the delivery route in Beijing was announced, it immediately aroused heated discussion among people across the country, and many people in Beijing wanted to go together to visit the route.
"Does anyone want to form a team? Let's go for a drive and walk the route."
"Hahaha, can you still play like this? Cheng knows how to play!"
"I'm in Chaoyang District. I'll drive to Chang'an Street later. Is there anyone nearby? Let's have fun together!"
"Brother, you are awesome. There are so many people in the capital right now, not to mention Chang'an Street. You still drive to Chang'an Street, I'm afraid you won't be able to get in or get out."
"It's daytime when you drive in, and it's nighttime when you drive out."
"Then go early in the morning!"
Nowadays, if you want to drive and go shopping in the capital, you must be prepared to be stuck in traffic jams to death. Not only is it a traffic jam, but you also have to give way to pedestrians from time to time.
This situation has shattered the hopes of a group of local netizens in Beijing who wanted to drive and explore the route after the Beijing torch route was announced.
However, there are so many people and traffic during the day, so it won’t be so lively in the middle of the night, right?
As a result, many netizens organized themselves and decided to take a night tour of the Beijing Torch Route!
In the past, wandering on the streets in the middle of the night was considered a social bastard.
However, now that the Olympic Games are taking place, people setting up streets in the middle of the night have presented a spectacle to many foreign friends.
There are so many people shopping in China in the middle of the night?
Can night markets in China still be open all night?
Aren't you afraid of being robbed?
Hua Guo: You try it, it depends on whether you are punished or not.
In such a peaceful social environment, many foreign friends took a rare night trip to the city and joined in the fun along with many Chinese who came after hearing the news.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, the torch relay is such an important event, and if they want to find out what it is, they are bound to be disappointed.
"Damn it, the road ahead is closed and there are all the police!"
"Can't you get in?"
"No, you can't take the main road, you can only walk along the side. People can pass by, but cars can't."
"Hey! Are those Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei?"
"Where? Hey! It's really them. Let's walk around and go around the road to have a look."
"Don't go there, now is not the time to chase stars, be careful I think you are a terrorist."
In the middle of the night, blue and red police car lights covered the streets of Chang'an, providing protection for the torchbearers during their drills.
If you look at the small, you will see the big. The streets along the torch routes in other urban areas must be in similar situations.
People joining in the fun were unable to go deep and could only watch.
The appearance of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei also added heat to the topic of the torch in Beijing.
"Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are on Chang'an Street! Who knows when they will pass the torch?" Some fans were surprised when they discovered the relevant news during the day.
"It's only about ten kilometers from Chang'an Street to the Bird's Nest, and it must be on August 8th," one netizen said.
"Friends, if anyone is in Beijing, go watch the torch on August 8th!" Many fans organized.
Many friends and colleagues also found this news, and they all found it extraordinary.
"These two guys are passing the torch on Chang'an Street in Tiananmen Square..." Hu Ge sighed.
"Awesome." Yuan Hong praised.
"Is this an official recommendation? They are the only two entertainment stars to carry the torch in Beijing, and they are scheduled to be held at Tiananmen Square." Zhang Ziyi was filled with envy.
"These two people originally had a good image, but now their image is more positive." Zou Xun commented.
"I can't compare, I can't compare. I'll go find Chu Xuan and visit him at the dock someday, and I'll hold him in my lap." Huang Xiaoming made a joke.
Thousands of miles away, the incident between Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei also caused a little interesting incident.
--France.
At the Chinese Consulate in France, Ankang, who came to work in the morning, also received a wave of glory because of his daughter's affairs.
"Lao An, your daughter is the torchbearer, and she will be relaying the torch on the Chang'an Street section on August 8th. As a father, you should be proud of your daughter."
"Lao An, that Chu Xuan should be recognized as your son-in-law. The two children in the family are so competitive, you will be protected in your later years."
"When are you going to get married? Have you, the elder, got the information? I will give you a leave then."
"Hey, the country's consulate in France, we have to pay attention to the impact. We won't talk about this for official business... go to work and go to work."
Seeing Ankang's glorious but embarrassed look, his colleagues stopped joking after a few jokes.
After his colleagues dispersed, Ankang sat down in the office chair and put his briefcase on the table. Only then did he, a father, pick up a Chinese newspaper and find a section describing Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei in the newspaper, feeling relieved alone.
Even though he hasn't seen his daughter for several years, she is his pride at this moment.
At the same time, Liu Yifei's natal family also started to move.
——Wuhan, China.
In the yard, my uncle and aunt were helping my grandmother pack her luggage, while Zhou Wenqiong and her cousin drove to wait at the gate of the yard.
"Sister, where are you going to play?" The neighbor's old lady looked into the yard and asked curiously when she saw her grandma's beaming look and her preparation for a long trip.
Grandma turned around and said happily: "The Olympic Games in Beijing are about to begin. I will go to my eldest daughter's house to have fun and see this great event in our country."
"Oh, sister, you are still enjoying the blessing." The neighbor's old lady said with envy.
Seeing the envy of the neighbors and sisters, grandma was very happy, but she still felt that the level was not enough, and she broke the news: "Also, my granddaughter and grandson-in-law are going to pass the torch in Tiananmen and contribute to the construction of the national Olympic Games. I want to go there with my own eyes.
Look at these two children, I haven’t seen them for a long time, but they miss me.”
"Ouch, spreading the holy fire in Tiananmen Square is a matter of honoring the ancestors. It's a big deal." The neighbor's old lady was so envious that she wished her grandchildren could replace Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
Seeing the old sisters look like this makes grandma extremely happy.
Zhou Wenqiong and her daughter looked at each other in front of the car, and both mother and daughter were holding back their laughter.
It is a good thing to have excellent children in the family. The elders will show off a word or two to everyone.
Just like Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, they were shown off by their grandma when no one was around.
While the country is shining brightly, even if super-popular stars like Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei can make an extraordinary impact, at this period they are just like a drop in the ocean, becoming the tip of the iceberg in the hot Olympic Games.
As news of the Beijing Torch Relay has been warming up for several days, the official day of the Beijing Torch Relay has arrived on August 6.
Even if it is exciting to watch the torch relay in other cities, compared with the mood of people when the torch is passed in the capital, the level of excitement will definitely be a little less intense.
What is the capital? The capital of the country!
Today, we are in the nation's capital, looking forward to the grand occasion of national rejuvenation.
Nowadays, our capital is no longer a land that can be trampled on at will, but a center where global shocks are focused.
Today, we carry the five-star red flag symbolizing peace and celebrate the glorious moment of our country.
When the first torch handed over to the capital appeared on the streets——
"Long live China!"
"The Kingdom of China is rising!!"
It's early in the morning, the clouds and fog have dispersed, and the morning light has begun to appear.
Both sides of the street were overcrowded. They had stayed up all night and gathered there since early morning. They were very excited.
Some people held the five-star red flag and couldn't help but wave the flag while the torch was still far away.
Some people had red flags painted on their faces, looking at the torches coming from the street from a distance, clasping their hands in front of their mouths and shouting to their heart's content.
Some men put their children on their heads to let their children feel the glory of the country at this moment. The children don't quite understand what the lively scene in front of them represents, but they are also smiling and slapping their little hands because of the passion in the hustle and bustle.
Some women started running in front, leading more people to run. They followed and guarded the torchbearers on the roadside, erecting another solid line of defense for the torchbearers, and also protecting the souls in their hearts.
.
What soul?
Warm cheers filled the sky, and the excited people could be seen. Many people even had tears in their eyes, as if at this moment they awakened the soul of the nation and wanted to congratulate everyone from all over the country!
