When Beijing won the right to host the 2022 Olympic Games, people looked out happily.

Beijing moved the world again, and China will continue to write about the Olympic glory. On the afternoon of July 3 128, the International Olympic Committee voted in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to hand over the right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics to Beijing. From 200 1 to 20 15, after 14, Beijing successfully applied for the Olympic Games again, writing a new page in the history of the Olympic Games. In 2022, Beijing will become the first city in history to host both the Summer Olympics and the Winter Olympics.

What changes is time. What remains unchanged is Beijing's longing for the Olympic Games. What remains unchanged is China's calmness and responsibility as a big country. Comprehensive Xinhua News Agency CCTV pictures in this edition are all from Xinhua News Agency.

A passionate statement

Choosing Beijing will bring changes to China and make the world a better place.

Kuala Lumpur has a pleasant summer climate, and the majestic twin towers standing beside the venue mark a new milestone. Yu Zaiqing, vice-chairman of the International Olympic Committee and vice-chairman of the Chinese Olympic Committee, told the IOC in warm language the significance of Beijing's bid to host the Winter Olympics: "Today, a historic step will be taken in the journey of the Olympic movement. Taking this step, Beijing can be chosen to host an athlete-centered Winter Olympics, laying the foundation for the long-term development of ice and snow sports; Taking this step, you choose Beijing to host a sustainable Winter Olympics and fully implement the Olympic Agenda 2020, which will not only bring positive changes to China, but also make the future of the world better; Taking this step, you chose Beijing to host a frugal Winter Olympics, which not only ensured the highest level of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games, but also placed the Olympic legacy in an equally important position, making the positive impact of the Olympic Games more profound. " The report will gradually reach its climax in a warm atmosphere.

In a video, Yao Ming, dressed in a hockey uniform, made a helpless expression after being intercepted by a small player, which caused the audience to laugh and added a relaxed atmosphere to the tense venue. In fact, Yao Ming is one of the key points, whether it is the media interview before the meeting, or the speech during the presentation, or the reporter interview after the meeting. As the "first tallest" in the delegation, Yao Ming has always played the role of cultural exchange between the East and the West, and he also participated in the sacred moment when the Olympic Games and Beijing became attached again.

Standing side by side with him on the platform is pregnant Yang Yang. China is an iconic figure in the history of winter sports. She won two gold medals at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, achieving a breakthrough of zero gold medals in China's participation in the Winter Olympics. "I'm really standing." Yang Yang made fun of Yao Ming's height, amused Li Nina, the famous winter Olympic mobilization who was also standing by, and amused many members, so his relaxed attitude was infected under the podium.

Every word, every expression and every movement of the delegation is conveying a message-Beijing, we are ready!

Nervous waiting

The on-site electronic voting system failed, and the paper ballot was used instead.

After the presentation, zhukov, Chairman of the Evaluation Committee of the 2022 Winter Olympics, made a final comment on the two bidding cities, and he also mentioned some updated information about Almaty. In response to the questions about accommodation in the evaluation report, the Almaty team provided some new data support, which reflected their efforts in reception capacity and added a lot of points for themselves.

According to the regulations of the International Olympic Committee, in order to prevent conflicts of interest, members from the Olympic Committee of the country (region) where the bid city is located cannot participate in the voting until its bid city is eliminated. Therefore, three IOC members from China, Yu Zaiqing, Li and Yang Yang, cannot vote. Members of 1 1 including FIFA President Blatter and Heiberg were absent from this plenary session. International Olympic Committee President Bach also did not vote. Therefore, 85 members took part in the voting.

The voting officially began at 4: 20 pm local time in Kuala Lumpur. The International Olympic Committee used a new electronic voting system for this conference, but in the end, there was something wrong with the system and we had to resort to paper voting. The tortuous voting process is over, Beijing or Almaty? The tension spread throughout the audience: just one last announcement!

Excited cheer

Opening the envelope for 3 seconds is suffocating, and "Beijing" echoes countless times.

Enter the announcement ceremony of the host city of the 2022 Winter Olympics, and first broadcast the promotional videos of the candidate cities Almaty and Beijing. Then Bach easily stepped onto the podium and praised both candidate cities. Malaysian badminton star Sura Sidek handed Bach an envelope containing the host city of the 2022 Winter Olympics, and the suffocating moment came.

"The International Olympic Committee is honored to announce that the winner of the 2022 Winter Olympics is-"Bach began to open the envelope in his hand. Three seconds later, he finally said the word "Beijing"! It can be predicted that this moment will be remembered by us countless times, just like "Beijing" written by Shakespeare 14 years ago.

The moment Bach read "Beijing", the members of the delegation jumped up and hugged each other to celebrate. Li Nina, smiling at the introduction, could not restrain her inner joy and burst into tears. "I have been thinking about what kind of state to use to express my happiness. Because I put a film of Sochi before, I was moved by the scene and felt that it was not easy for us to bid for the whole process." Li Nina still couldn't control his emotions during the interview.

Yao Ming, who was equally excited, said, "We are very lucky and want to express our gratitude to Almaty. Without their excellent performance, we would not be encouraged to show our best. In sports competitions, we always want to thank a great opponent and create a wonderful game together. "

Eighty-five members voted and one abstained. At 44: 40, Beijing narrowly won. In the next seven years, Beijing will gradually show its winter charm to the world, adding another magic stroke to the Olympic history.

Invite friends from all over the world to have a "pure ice and snow" passion dating.

When will this activity be held?

Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is scheduled to open on February 4 (Friday, the fourth day of the lunar calendar) and close on February 20 (Sunday); The Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games is scheduled to open on Friday, March 4th and close on Sunday, March 3rd. The above best date has been fully demonstrated for the following reasons:

In the past 10 years, the average daytime temperatures in Beijing, Zhangjiakou and Yanqing met the temperature requirements for hosting the Winter Olympics on ice and snow, and the wind speed was moderate. This weather condition is conducive to athletes' excellent performance.

This period coincides with the most important traditional festivals in China, Spring Festival and school winter vacation, which can attract more audiences, especially teenagers, and facilitate the organization of volunteers to participate in the service of the Winter Olympics. During this period, China will not arrange other events unrelated to the 2022 Winter Olympics at the same time, which can greatly enhance the attention of the Winter Olympics.

How much investment is needed to host the Winter Olympics?

In the process of Beijing's bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, it was highly recognized and supported by the people. At the same time, public opinion has also paid attention to some issues: China lacks a solid foundation for ice and snow sports, and how many stadiums will be built after the successful bid for the Winter Olympics?

Thrift competition is a major concept and goal of Beijing's Olympic bid. According to the budget of the Winter Olympics, the preparation budget for the games is about $654.38+56 million, with government subsidies accounting for 6%. The budget for venue construction, including competition venues and non-competition venues, is about 1, 5 1 billion dollars, of which 65% comes from social investment.

Officials of the Winter Olympics Bid Committee said that from the perspective of how to "spend money" in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the government spent little on operating expenses, accounting for only 10%.

A set of data shows that Beijing has a huge and rich "Olympic legacy" of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games: the National Stadium "Bird's Nest", the main stadium of the Beijing Olympic Games, will become the landmark venue for hosting the opening ceremony of the 2022 Winter Olympics, the Water Cube will hold curling competitions, and Wukesong and the National Stadium will hold ice hockey competitions ... In fact, there are 12 ice sports venues needed for the Winter Olympics.

In addition to the ice events in Beijing, the snow events will be held in Yanqing, Beijing and Chongli, Zhangjiakou, Hebei. Yanqing will use its geographical advantages to provide alpine ski resorts; Most of the competitions in Chongli Stadium are planned to be arranged in Genting Snowfield.

How to use the competition venues in the future?

At the beginning of Beijing's bid for the Olympic Games, the Olympic legacy was scientifically planned, and a special organization was set up to manage the whole process. The main legacy of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics will be in line with the long-term development planning and goals of the region.

It is understood that in addition to the venues left by the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, there are plans to build a national speed skating hall, a biathlon center and a Nordic central platform ski resort, a Nordic central cross-country ski resort, a national alpine ski center and a national snowmobile sled center for the Winter Olympics. After the games, they will be planned as training bases for China athletes, sports venues and parks for ice and snow lovers.

The Olympic Village and media residential areas that need to build permanent facilities will be used as hotels or apartments after the Winter Olympics and continue to serve the development of sports culture, tourism and leisure industries.

At present, the Chinese Olympic Committee is implementing the plan of "promoting 300 million people to participate in ice and snow sports", and will continue to implement a number of promotion projects such as "Millions of Ice and Snow Teenagers", "Ice and Snow Sunshine Sports" and "North Ice Exhibition in the South and West Expansion". After Beijing's successful bid to host the Winter Olympics, it will speed up the process of "ice exhibition in the north and ice exhibition in the south", so that people in more areas of China can enjoy the fun of ice and snow sports.

Earlier, Wu Dongliang, vice president of the International Ice Hockey Federation, said that if Beijing can successfully bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics, it will also be a very favorable opportunity for the promotion of ice hockey in China. China is a huge market, which can accommodate many sports. The FIA thinks there will be many opportunities here.

There are seven primary schools in Nanjing.

Integrating Ice project into school-based curriculum

Future ice and snow projects will usher in great development.

Yesterday, Beijing successfully won the right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics. The reporter of Modern Express also interviewed Li Longmou, the commentator of Nanjing CCTV Ice and Snow Project, at the bidding site in Kuala Lumpur. He said that with Beijing's successful bid to host the Winter Olympics, Nanjing's ice and snow projects will usher in great development. In addition, Liu Rong, the head of the operating companies of three skating rinks in Nanjing, also told the reporter: "Now there are seven primary schools in Nanjing that have incorporated ice projects into the school-based curriculum. I hope the government departments can give more support to ice projects in the future." Modern Express reporter Cheng Linglin

Beijing's successful bid to host the Winter Olympics will promote the development of Nanjing's ice and snow project.

Yesterday, when Beijing beat Almaty, Kazakhstan to win the right to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, the reporter of Modern Express immediately contacted Li Longmou, a commentator of Nanjing CCTV Ice and Snow Project who was bidding in Kuala Lumpur. When talking about the impact of Beijing's successful Olympic bid on Nanjing's winter events, Li Longmou said: "When I left Nanjing to study, there was no skating rink in Nanjing, but now there are three skating rinks in Nanjing, namely Yue Hong, Deji and Olympic Sports Center, two in Suzhou, one in Wuxi, and venues in Xuzhou and Suqian are also under construction. After the successful bid for the Winter Olympics, at least Nanjing or Jiangsu can make a breakthrough in ice and snow projects. As far as I know, there are four ice hockey teams in Nanjing, especially the women's ice hockey team, which is stronger, so it will have a very direct role in promoting their future development. "

Liu Rong (head of Nanjing Sankuai skating rink operation company)

Seven primary schools in Nanjing have incorporated the ice project into the school-based curriculum.

Last night, through the introduction of CCTV commentary Li Longmou, the reporter of Modern Express also contacted Liu Rong of Nanjing Branch of Beijing Century Star Skating Club Co., Ltd. At present, Liu Rong's company is responsible for the youth training of three ice rinks and ice events in Nanjing. When talking about Beijing's successful bid to host the Winter Olympics, Liu Rong also said excitedly: "Beijing's successful bid to host the Winter Olympics is definitely a great good news for Nanjing's ice and snow sports. Now our company has three skating rinks in Nanjing, and there are many children who practice figure skating and ice hockey with us at ordinary times, and there may be more in the future. We hope that through this opportunity, we can really carry out ice sports in Nanjing better. "

When talking about the current situation of ice sports in Nanjing, Liu Rong also said: "We are headquartered in the Olympic Sports Center, and seven primary schools in the Olympic Sports Center have incorporated ice sports into the school-based curriculum. Students of Grade One and Grade Two in these seven primary schools can have an ice and snow sports class every week. In addition, our company has set up a club, in which there are four children's ice hockey teams, all of whom are pupils of Nanjing Xincheng Primary School Headquarters and other surrounding schools. At present, there are 23 students practicing figure skating in the club. They all passed the national grade examination and obtained the grade certificate of flower skating, so the overall development situation is not bad. "

When talking about the current difficulties, Liu Rong also said frankly: "In fact, compared with those popular projects, we still hope that the government, especially the Sports Bureau, can successfully bid for the Winter Olympics through Beijing this time and give us some policy support. This will not only allow more young people to participate in ice projects, but also cultivate our own outstanding athletes for Nanjing and Jiangsu. "
