Before entering the Workers' Stadium, these tens of thousands of spectators did not know each other, but now they have a common name - Chinese.

The rhythm and vows engraved in the bones penetrated thousands of hearts in the music, and gathered in the sky above Yanjing. At this moment, ancient China exuded endless vitality and fighting spirit.

Listen, that is the strong beating of the heart of the Republic!

After the national anthem, sports delegations from various countries entered the stadium.

In this Asian Games, a total of 6,578 athletes from sports delegations from 37 countries and regions participated. At this moment, a sports event of unprecedented scale in Asian history kicked off.

After the Vice Chairman of the Olympic Council of Asia stood in front of the rostrum and read out the congratulatory message he wrote for the Yanjing Asian Games on behalf of the late Chairman of the Olympic Council of Asia, Prince Fatah, the leader, Comrade Yang, spoke solemnly:

I declare the opening of the 11th Asian Games in Yanjing!

When the Asian Games flag was flying over the Workers' Stadium, Xu Haifeng, who won China's first Olympic gold medal, held the Asian Games torch high and ran into the stadium escorted by women's volleyball player Zhang Rongfang and diving champion Gao Min.

After circling the stadium for a week, he climbed onto the torch platform and lit the Asian Games flame. The flame from the main peak of the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains burned brightly, and the white dove symbolizing peace spread its wings and flew into the sky.

The next hour was a performance featuring singing and dancing.

At the end of the last program "Gathering in Yanjing", just as night fell, countless colorful balloons rose into the sky, carrying all the people's beautiful vision for the Asian Games.

At the end of the opening ceremony, Lin Chaoyang's family followed the crowd out of the stadium.

The two children were shouting and screaming from the beginning to the end, and they were extremely excited.

Tao Yushu said with emotion: "The opening ceremony was really good!"

Lin Chaoyang has experienced the shock of the Yanjing Olympics in later generations. Watching the opening ceremony of the Asian Games always feels a bit childish, but from the perspective of this era, the opening ceremony of this Asian Games is indeed remarkable.

The scene was spectacular and majestic, giving the Chinese people a good reputation!

On the way home, the neon lights of Yanjing were flashing under the night, and there was a huge flow of people. Flags were flying everywhere, and there were promotional banners and slogans everywhere.

People's faces were filled with excitement and joy, the air was filled with joy and peace, and the streets and alleys were filled with a grand festive atmosphere.

On this day, "People's Daily" published an editorial like this: "Lighting the Asian Games Flame, Showing Asian Power - Congratulations on the Opening of the 11th Asian Games."

"It's great to have friends from far away. Athletes from East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and West Asia, as well as friends who care about the Asian Games, came to Yanjing shoulder to shoulder.

The smiling faces brought the beautiful friendship of the Asian people to the Chinese people.

Dear friends, the Chinese people warmly welcome you!

On this day, the sound of festive bells and drums continued, the cheerful songs lingered, a grand party opened, and ancient and young China opened its arms to Asia.

It's night in Yanjing and there's no sleep.

The next day is the first day of competition on the Asian Games schedule.

Tickets for the match at the Capital Stadium have already been sold out by enthusiastic spectators. The stadium was occupied by thousands of spectators early in the morning, and the media area was packed with media who came to cover the first day's schedule.

At the same time, there are hundreds of millions of viewers watching in front of the TV, hoping to witness the wonderful performances of athletes at the first time.

The first competition of this Asian Games is men's gymnastics. All media and spectators' attention is focused on the Chinese national men's gymnastics team, whose average age is less than 20 years old.

In 1982, Li Ning made an appearance at the Sixth World Cup Gymnastics Championships and became a blockbuster. He won five gold medals and one silver medal, bringing China's men's gymnastics event to national attention in one fell swoop.

Everyone is looking forward to the young men's gymnastics team bringing a surprise to everyone.

Li Xiaoshuang, who was only 17 years old, walked onto the field under the spotlight. He had muscles all over his body, but his immature face showed a trace of nervousness, forming a strong contrast.

"Dad, big brother flies so high!"

Lin Chaoyang's family was sitting among the spectators at the Capital Stadium. The ongoing event on the field at this time was floor exercise.

Li Xiaoshuang started up like a whirlwind on the court, jumping, spinning, and tumbling. Every move he made was clean and neat, and his posture was graceful. He drew arcs in the air, full of artistic beauty.

The audience in the stadium watched intently until he finished his set of moves, and the stadium immediately burst into warm applause.

The young Yan Yan was also shocked by this smooth and explosive movement. This was her first time watching floor exercise. She felt that the big brother on the field seemed to be flying, so she asked Lin Chaoyang in amazement.

"What big brother is performing is called floor exercise." Lin Chaoyang explained with a smile.

"I think Li Xiaoshuang is a good jumper. He will have no problem making it to the finals, and maybe he can win a gold medal!" Tao Yushu said.

For many years, gymnastics has been the strength of the Chinese team, and it was also one of the most discussed events before the Asian Games. In 1988, Chinese gymnastics failed at the Seoul Olympics. Li Ning, Lou Yun and other famous athletes retired one after another. The gymnastics team was in decline, and everyone couldn't help but worry.

Although Tao Yushu was an outsider, he saw that Li Xiaoshuang's movements were clean, powerful, quick and decisive, and he could tell to the naked eye that he was much better than the previous players, so he dared to make a bold assertion.

"You said you can win the gold medal, you can definitely win it!" Lin Chaoyang said with a smile.

Tao Yushu also laughed, "If you do as I say, the Chinese team had better win all the gold medals!"

"Friendship comes first, competition comes second, why don't you leave some for your friends!"

"Aren't there still silver and bronze medals?"

"Okay!" Lin Chaoyang marveled at Tao Yushu's greed.

On the first day of the Asian Games, a total of 31 gold medals will be awarded in swimming, fencing, gymnastics, judo, modern pentathlon, rowing, shooting, taekwondo and martial arts.

While Lin Chaoyang's family was watching the game at the Capital Stadium, good news came from the Ditan Stadium.

Xing Fen, a competitor in the women's 44kg weightlifting competition, won the first gold medal for the Chinese team in the Asian Games!

Xing Fen's victory is just the beginning of the Chinese team's campaign in the Asian Games. As one of the top sports powers in Asia,

The Chinese team has strong advantages in many sports.

For three consecutive days, the Chinese team was like the devil in the Asian Games, winning medals wildly.

Li Xiaoshuang won the men's team and floor exercise championships, Shen Jianqiang won five gold medals in a row in swimming competitions, and wrestler Bao Yu won the gold medal in the 100kg Classical final, achieving zero success for the Chinese team in international competitions in this field. breakthrough··

The Asian Games athletes have brought glory to the country, and the enthusiasm among the people has become stronger and stronger.

In addition, during the Asian Games, the streets of Yanjing were bustling with lights and colorful decorations, and there were cultural activities everywhere.

There are enthusiastic citizens and tourists everywhere.

The entire Asian Games schedule lasts for half a month. Tao Yushu is usually busy with work and only stayed in Yanjing until November.

I had to go back to Xiangjiang to be busy with the company.

Lin Chaoyang stayed in Yanjing and continued to play with his two children.

The Asian Games held in front of their home is a rare event in ten years, and the couple did not want their children to miss such a wonderful childhood experience.

By October 6, the half-month Asian Games schedule has officially ended.

The Chinese team ranked first in the gold medal list and medal list with 183 gold medals, 107 silver medals, and 51 bronze medals, followed by the South Korean team and the Japanese team.

On the evening of the 7th, still in the Workers' Stadium, the closing ceremony of the 11th Asian Games was held as scheduled. The scene was still gorgeous, spectacular, and lively, but it felt a little more sad that it had ended.

As night falls, the fireworks above the Workers' Stadium are like falling stars.

"In our Asia, the mountains are like heads held high. In Asia, our rivers are like streams of blood. The majestic and bright songs echoed in the sky of Yanjing along with the fireworks. Thousands of spectators held banners reading "Host the Asian Games, Hope for the Olympics." , this sentence is exactly what Lin Chaoyang said to Zhang Baifa before.

With the light of fireworks, these banners displayed by the audience at the Workers' Stadium in the stands were broadcast across thousands of mountains and rivers and displayed in front of hundreds of millions of Chinese viewers watching the TV.

This time the event is over, and people are looking forward to the next one.

Perhaps what we are looking forward to is not only the grand event, but also the future with infinite possibilities.

The next day, "People's Daily" published an article "After the Asian Games and Looking forward to the Olympics", the scene that appeared in the stands at the closing ceremony of the Asian Games last night was told to the people of the country.

Anyone with a sense of politics will be able to detect something unusual when reading this article in the People's Daily.

The Asian Games have just been held. Could it be that China is about to apply to host the Olympic Games?

The people who were still immersed in the aftermath of the Asian Games were accidentally made excited by this article in the "People's Daily".

There are also many enthusiastic people who have written letters and phone calls to Yanjing Municipal Government, Asian Games Organizing Committee, Chinese Olympic Committee and other departments to express their fervent mood and simple wishes.

Riding on the residual heat of the Asian Games, there has been a heated discussion across the country about bidding to host the Olympic Games.

The Asian Games is over, and so is the first week of October.

During the Asian Games, a major event happened internationally.

The two Germanys are unified!

This major event that could change the course of world history has actually been brewing for a long time. The political situation in East Germany was turbulent last year.

In February this year, East German Prime Minister Modero visited West Germany, and in March East Germany held its first democratic election in history. The pace of reunification between the two Germanys has become unstoppable.

In May this year, the two countries established a monetary, economic and social union. In June, the Berlin Wall was demolished. In August, the People's Assembly of East Germany decided to merge into West Germany.

By October, Germany, which had been divided for more than 40 years, was reunited.

With the whole country paying attention to the Asian Games, this news did not cause too big a stir in the country. After all, from last year to this year, the reunification of the two Germanys has been promoted for more than a year.

When the common people heard the news, their only sigh was: When will those separated wanderers from our families be able to return home?

After the Asian Games ended and he stayed in Yanjing for another two days, Lin Chaoyang was about to take his children back to Xiangjiang, but Wang Meng and Ma Feng stopped him at the door of his house.

"What's going on?" Lin Chaoyang looked surprised when he saw the two men mobilizing forces like this.

"What are you going to do?"

"Go back to Xiangjiang!"

Ma Feng's face was filled with excitement and excitement, and he asked, "You don't know?"

"What do you know?" Lin Chaoyang was stunned when Ma Feng asked.
