As the torchbearers ran and passed the torch, everyone's thoughts kept beating with the progress of the torch. At this moment, memories of the past flooded into his heart. Bai Shuo recalled the defense of national sovereignty at the 10th U.S. Olympic Games 76 years ago.
, Liu Changchun, who defended the honor of the motherland and rectified the name of China; thought of China's efforts to bid for the Olympic Games since 1991; thought of Jin Jing who tenaciously maintained the Olympic torch in Gaul; thought of himself and Liang Ying, Zhu Sui'an,
