The power of China

After watching the opening ceremony of Beijing Olympic 2008, I wrote a Chinese post about it and the magnificent Olympic torch ceremony. Tonight, the world witnessed again China’s ability to stage such a huge magnificent show to the world.

One thing that caught my eyes was the double deck bus which then transformed into a stage. When I was young, I used to imagine to have a vehicle which could transform into anything as I wished. China has done it! It has become possible.

Both the opening and closing ceremony have attracted the world’s attention. The shows take a person’s knowledge and understanding of Chinese cultures and history. Without such knowledge and understanding, the shows were just merely gigantic stage performances, and nothing more than entertainment. The story went down the time tunnel from Qin dynasty to modern China. They told the spectacular transformation of China and its rising.

最棒的奥运圣火

August 9th, 2008 at 0:42 · Filed Under Blogging, China, Chinese, Days in My Life, Sports · 3 Comments 

最撮目以待的奥运圣火点燃仪式在经过四小时的开幕仪式之后，终于在北京的夜空点燃。中国体操王子，李宁，手握奥运火炬，系上钢索，飞上鸟巢顶上，有嫦娥奔月的意义。然后用像武侠小说里的轻功，在鸟巢顶上奔跑。他双脚踏过之处，有动人画面以投影机投影出来。到了终点站，巨型奥运会圣火炬终于出现。李宁以手中圣火将之点燃。

李宁在鸟巢上踏步飞行的情景非常动人。自从1992巴塞罗那奥林匹克，西班牙神箭手以弓箭把奥运会圣火射向奥林匹克火炬将之点燃之后，再也没有比那更精彩的奥运会圣火点燃仪式了。今晚，北京再创神奇，以罕为观止的呈现方式，把圣火点燃。

要吊在半空，离地大约一百公尺，有点倾斜的顶上奔驰，非要有相当的体力和耐力不可。李宁这一幕，有很大、很远的意义。李宁就代表了中国，他那嫦娥奔月的姿态就代表了中国的能力、耐力和决心，走向世界，冲出太空。

科技奥运，名符其实。中国再一次让全世界的华人引以为豪。再一次，祝福中国北京。

August 8, 2008 will be the day. Are you ready?

Here is the song for the Olympic 2008 countdown. I love the song because it makes my blood rushing, full of dynamic. This song is a Chinese language song but music is a universal language. Enjoy!

We Are Ready
