To be honest, after Liu Lang participated in the Los Angeles Olympics six years ago, he was not very interested in events of this level like the Asian Games. Besides, in the era of his rebirth, the Asian Games did not attract much attention at all.
Every time, Chinese athletes are alone in seeking defeat and cannot find an opponent at all, except of course for football...Only the Olympic Games can make everyone excited.
But for people of this era, the Asian Games is already the grandest competition, and the whole country is paying attention. Liu Lang still remembers that when the Asian Games was held in his previous life, schools were on holiday, and everyone stayed at home waiting to watch the opening ceremony.
When the Chinese delegation walked into the venue, Liu Lang sat in front of the TV and raised his hands excitedly and shouted. At that time, Liu Lang secretly determined to go to the scene when China hosted the Olympic Games. But the reality was not ideal. Eighteen years later, China hosted the Olympic Games.
During the Olympic Games, Liu Lang was running around for a living. Where could he find spare time and money?
This life was fully restored, and Liu Lang didn't even have to pay to watch the Asian Games. In fact, the Sports Committee had approached him earlier and wanted him to be the torch bearer, but Liu Lang politely declined, firstly because he had already
Having arranged things, it will take at least a few days for him to be the torchbearer, and there are also
He was a torchbearer but wanted to be on TV. He didn't want to show up in public, and the sports committee department wasn't angry either. The little guy Liu Lang was very "mysterious" and the country wanted to protect him. Maybe even if he agreed, the higher-ups would stop him and let him go.
It’s probably inappropriate for a “national treasure” to be a torchbearer.
On the eve of the Asian Games, many wealthy people from Hong Kong were invited to the capital by high-level national officials. Brothers Huo Tianting and Huo Tianhuan came here on behalf of the Huo family, as well as the Li family, the Guo family and others, as well as Hua Han
I was invited, but
His invitation was sent by Shao Mingtao. After all, his status could not be compared with those rich people, but Hua Han was satisfied. Shao Mingtao also represented the country. Being invited by the other party proved that what he had done over the years had been recognized.
The day before the opening ceremony of the Asian Games, Liu Lang, Sun Hu and the Huo brothers sat in a Mercedes-Benz and drove around the entire capital. Liu Lang wanted to take a look at the current appearance of the capital and feel the changes in the ten years of reform and opening up.
Three years ago, the capital only had the third ring line, but now most of the northern fourth ring line has been built. Of course, Liu Lang's previous life in the capital had already completed the fifth ring line, but it was still not enough. Perhaps a sixth and seventh ring lines must be built...
.
Huo Tianting knows best the changes in the capital in the past two years. Wangfujing's China Town has been under construction for four years and is now almost completed. It will be open for business early tomorrow. This major project costs more than 100 million, so Huo Tianting
I spend half of the years here.
"Liu Lang, let me take you to walk around the overpass!"
Huo Tianting drove the car himself and took a few people for a walk around the city, sometimes on overpasses and sometimes through culverts. He knew much more about the capital than Liu Lang.
Along the way, Liu Lang saw many unfamiliar buildings, most of which had just been completed. You must know that this metropolis has invested more than 3 billion yuan in urban construction in the past four years. This is the capital's second largest city after 50 years.
It is another large-scale construction since the construction of the "Top Ten Buildings" such as the Great Hall in the 1990s, and this time the scale is much larger than the last time. Liu Lang has been to West Germany. In terms of modern buildings alone, the capital is no longer
Better than Berlin.
In addition, there are Asian Games logos and Asian Games mascots that can be seen everywhere. In addition to the sun rays in the Olympic Council of Asia emblem, the capital Asian Games emblem also uses the majestic Great Wall to form the word "a".
The Great Wall is a symbol of China's ancient civilization. "a" is the abbreviation of Asia in English. The combination of the two means that the Asian Games held in the capital will become a link to unite people from all over Asia. This idea is good. In addition, the Great Wall pattern also forms the "Ⅺ"
"The word "means that this Asian Games is the 11th.
In addition to this logo, the most memorable thing is the mascot, which is a giant panda named Panpan. This giant panda is definitely the most famous giant panda in Chinese history. No other giant panda can
Comparably, in Liu Lang's previous life, Chinese people in the 1990s may not know what Qilin is, but no one does not know "Pan Pan", which was China's mythical beast during that time.
In fact, after the Spring Festival of 1990, the Asian Games emblem and the figure panda Panpan that was deeply imprinted in the minds of Chinese people began to appear in the streets and alleys of the capital, including on national television.
This giant panda, holding a gold medal in its left hand and thumbs up with its right hand, carries the hospitality of the Chinese people, and also carries the blessings of the Chinese people. It is everywhere, in statues, flower beds, pencil cases, school bags, handkerchiefs, refrigerator magnets, and stickers.
Wait, in his previous life, Liu Lang had several pencil cases with this giant panda painted on them.
Let’s put it this way, Panpan appears much more frequently than the Fuwa in the Olympics. In the Internet era, it is definitely the number one Internet celebrity.
Panpan's prototype panda is named "Buzz", which actually has the same name as the protagonist of Toy Story. He was ten years old in 1990, and he lived until 2017 when he died, at the age of thirty-seven, which is equivalent to
Human beings are one hundred and eight years old. They have accompanied an entire generation of Chinese people throughout their lives, leaving behind a beautiful memory.
In addition to the logo and mascot, the song "Asian Heroes" is played all over the streets. Passionate emotions permeate the whole city. When hearing this song, people's walking postures are different. It's really lively.
He was so majestic and his heart was filled with pride.
On the afternoon of September 22, 1990, the 11th Capital Asian Games, which symbolized the "unity, friendship, and progress" of the Asian people, grandly opened at the Workers' Stadium.
A total of more than 6,500 people from 37 national and regional sports delegations who are members of the Olympic Council of Asia participated. The entire venue was packed with people. Liu Lang was sitting in a corner of the rostrum, next to the fire
Brothers Tianting.
The opening ceremony officially started at three o'clock in the afternoon. It started with the entrance ceremony. When the huge delegation of the Chinese team entered the venue, the audience gave the warmest applause. Everyone on the podium also stood up and cheered, especially
Brothers Huo Tianting, it can be seen that they really feel proud at this moment.
At the end of the entrance ceremony, Xu Haifeng, who won China's first Olympic gold medal, held the Asian Games torch high and ran into the Workers' Stadium, escorted by former women's volleyball player Zhang Rongfang and diving champion Gao Min. After circling the stadium for a week, he boarded the torch stand and lit it.
Asian Games Flame.
Amid the cheers of the audience, the sacred fire was lit, and countless doves of peace took off into the sky.
On this day, Norinco also gave all employees a day off, but most of the employees chose to gather in the factory activity room to watch. When the camera swept across the rostrum, several sharp-eyed workers actually saw their boss, and they did not know whether the cameraman was intentional or not.
, this shot was paused for about a second, Liu Lang in the shot was very clear, of course, the shot and Liu Lang were far away, and people who were not very familiar with him would not be able to tell the difference.
"The boss actually sat on the rostrum, that's amazing!"
Everyone was very excited. Not everyone could sit on the rostrum. The person in the middle was the top leader of the country. There were also the prime minister and deputy prime minister next to him. Those who could sit around these people must be among the top dozens of people in the country. It was obvious.
, it is a status symbol for your own boss to sit on the rostrum.
Of course, the focus of everyone's attention was still on the opening ceremony. In order to heighten the atmosphere, Wang Zhendong also sent people to buy a lot of posters with Panpan painted on them and posted them on the walls of the activity room. When the torch was lit, people in the activity room also shouted and cheered.
