In the country, the number of escort runs ranks first in the "small bridge", and its cumulative number of escort runs has exceeded 980,000. "I am in Shijiazhuang, cheering for the Winter Olympics" "I am in Harbin, cheering for the Athletes of the Winter Olympics" "I am in Hainan, wishing the Winter Olympics a complete success" On the page with the shape and light of the "torch" as the background, netizens from all over the country have left messages to express their blessings for the successful holding of the Beijing Winter Olympics. So far, the "I am a torch network runner" activity launched by the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee has been read 95.553 million times, and 23.627 million people have participated in the "torch network escort", received the officially certified runner electronic certificate, and presented their "steps".

The opening of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is just around the corner, and it coincides with the traditional Chinese New Year, and the two great joys have ignited people's expectations for the wonderful "Winter Dream". With the help of WeChat Weibo, video platforms and websites, the majority of netizens have posted their own runner electronic certificates and met online in a special way. On the Weibo platform, the Weibo topic of "#I am the Torch Network Runner#" has been read 140 million times, and the participants have involved all over the world and all walks of life, including ordinary people and runners of this competition.
At present, the torch relay of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games is in full swing. Due to the need for the prevention and control of the new crown epidemic, the torch relay route includes a total of 11 closed transmission areas outside the closed loop and 1 independent transmission area within the closed loop. One might sigh that the torch relay can't be cheered on like the 2008 Olympics. However, compared with the two torch relays, although the number of people who can refuel at the scene this time is small, people's expectations and welcome for the "flying" of the torch have increased unabated. Online escort for the torch relay has become a popular game with fashion elements in this Winter Olympics. In addition, the event also adopted the introduction of torch logos, strengthened virtual interaction, issued electronic certificates, etc., in order to gather more people to participate in the torch relay, but also to make up for the regret that people could not come to the scene to cheer.
As the first large-scale torch network escort activity in the history of the Olympic Games, the event has stimulated people's enthusiasm for ice and snow sports to the greatest extent and actively promoted the success of the Winter Olympic Games. The torch has become the bond between the torchbearer and the runner, and the sustenance for blessing the Olympic Games. Every netizen who participated in the activity escorted the relay relay of the Winter Olympic torch.
Offline, the torchbearers are full of spirit and have their own style; online, the runners are in high spirits, each with their own expectations and blessings. The reporter learned that on the day of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics on February 4, the official WeChat video account of the "Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics" will be connected to the live broadcast signal of the main torch lighting stage, and the people who will carry out the torch network escort can jointly greet the moment when the main torch is lit.
For more information, stay tuned to the Winter Olympics.
