The visit of Mr. Hans Larsson (President of the Olympic Committee of the Republic of Haiti) gave us an insight into the Republic of Haiti, a country that has been tirelessly participating in the great event of human sports for a century. Since 1924, he has participated in this most world-class sports event, with 1 silver and 1 bronze (1924, 1928), becoming the most faithful practitioner of Mr. Coubertin's advocacy of the spirit of "emphasis on participation".
Among the athletes from 91 countries and regions of this year's ice and snow event, including the "single national team" sent by the Caribbean island nation of Haiti. Although only one athlete participated in the alpine skiing competition, although they became the first country to end the competition, their participation still won the applause of Beijing and the praise of the world.
On February 9, Haitian Olympic Committee President Hans Larsen and Secretary-General Patrick Blanchet, who had just finished watching the alpine skiing competition, were excited to visit genting Prince Town, and were deeply attracted by the town's Chinese culture and Chinese customs.
Larson's biggest favorite is to take fine wine as a city memory, he tasted the world's famous wine, heard that there is an experience workshop in the Genting Division that collects Chinese wine and Sichuan cuisine, and immediately asked volunteers to accompany him.
Since its opening, Shuijingfang Genting District WineRy has been favored by Chinese and foreign friends and has become a landmark punching place for ice and snow events. After the elbow salute and nucleic acid report inspection and other epidemic prevention and control procedures were completed, the two people from the tropical country eagerly entered the winery to keep out the cold, "Very Cosy!" (too comfortable)" Larson's face burst into a smile.
After entering the winery, the first thing that attracts the two is the mascot decorated in the workshop, it seems that this red panda has become their treasured event memory, everyone laughed, explained to him that the panda of the 2008 Beijing festival is the mascot of China embracing the world, and the mascot of this event has the shell of super power ice crystals, which is a symbol of modern technology.
The tea art performance before the meal and the Sichuan opera changing face showed the two guests China's intangible cultural heritage. Larson's look of amazement: Unable to understand the various faces of the actors in a flash! “It’s Amazing！ (It's amazing)" Larson looked incredulous.
Larson said that as a tropical country, Haiti's objective environment restricts the development of its ice and snow sports, but this does not affect their enthusiasm for ice and snow sports, and the purpose of their active participation in this event is not only to inherit the century-old history of participating in the world sports event, but also to show that Haiti is an indispensable member of the international community, and hopes to bring the spirit of sportsmanship and its values to young people through participation. Speaking of China has won 3 gold medals at this ice and snow event, he is very envious: "China is the number one power in world sports, this time in Beijing to see the Chinese team very beautiful costumes, very much hope that China can give us national assistance in sports and economy, support Haiti's sports development." ”
When Sichuan cuisine and Shuijingfang collection of ice and snow edition wine on the table, Larson directly held up the exquisite Shuijingfang to appreciate, the bottle body carved heroic snow lion and the bottle bottom ice and snow sports unique burning painting let him even marvel, after understanding that this is specially designed to celebrate the world's attention of the ice and snow event, the launch of ice and snow IP customized products, he said: "In my country, people advocate lions, is a kind of spiritual totem! "He lifted the glass, sniffed it carefully, nodded frequently, gave a thumbs up, and then touched it lightly on the lips, like a sommelier's style." Chinese Baijiu (Chinese liquor), National Treasure (National Treasure)! He pointed to the panda in the green bamboo bush and gave a thumbs up again!
"How many degrees of this wine?" "What is the aroma of this wine?" "Can this wine be mixed with juice to make a cocktail?" A series of professional questions were asked by Larson, and the Shuijingfang brand ambassador answered them one by one. When he learned that Shuijingfang fine wine is a high-quality wine brewed by the Shuijingfang No. 1 flora that has never stopped breeding for 600 years after double-wheel distillation, he said: "If it is used for bartending, it will destroy its original taste, or it will be tasted in its original taste." "Larson proposed, let us raise a toast to the friendship between China and the sea, raise a toast to China, and cheer for China's ice and snow!"
