Chinese Business People Cheer On the Olympics

August 8, at 8:00 p.m. in 2008 marks an incredibly exciting moment for the Chinese people: it is the time that the opening ceremony for the 29th Olympics Games starts, and the very first Olympics ever to be hosted in China. To celebrate this historical event, XING China and the Beijing Community have co-organized an official “Business People Cheer On the Olympics” online event in the Beijing Community. Members throughout the whole of China were invited to join three serial events together to share the happiness of host country.
Over 20 Chinese communities have already joined in the “Cheer on the China team on behalf of your community” online competition, where members can post their best wishes in the forum under their community threads to be in with a chance of winning one of the top 10 cheering on communities awards.
Many members have already posted their predictions in the “Guess the number and rank of gold medals won by the China team” forum before the opening of the Olympics. Some members have decided to wait till the event is about to close to have a better chance of winning. One member Mr. Lei Bin humorously predicted that China would be “ranked no. 1 as a warm host country, ranked no. 2 for gold medals”.
Another online forum called “Share your Olympic stories” also opened to encourage members to share their experience of the Games. Olympics volunteers, torch carriers, service providers, and spectators were all invited to share their stories. With the start of Olympics, we believe Chinese members will now have even more exciting topics to share with one other. Cheer on the Olympics! Cheer on China!
