Make good use of the legacy of the Winter Olympics to enrich the lives of the masses

The Gaojing Road community, which is not far from Shougang Park, is the first Winter Olympic community in Beijing to be approved by the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee. Walking into the community, snow sports elements can be seen everywhere. In the streets and alleys, guardrails decorated with winter Olympic project motifs and introductions, and facilities related to ice and snow sports are scattered everywhere. Since the Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games entered the "Beijing time", the community's Winter Olympic Cultural Square has always been a lively scene, especially after February 4, the literary and artistic performances held here every day are full of audiences.

The Gaojing Road community was originally an old community with weak infrastructure. Guangning Street, to which it belongs, seizes the opportunity of the Winter Olympics and integrates the Olympic cultural concept into various aspects such as environmental construction and community life. Nowadays, Quang Ninh Street has its own ice and snow sports team, volunteers to promote Olympic culture, and created activities such as "Winter Olympic Community Ice and Snow Carnival" and "Winter Olympic Lecture Hall". The desire for the "Winter Olympics to make the city better" fell into reality here.

For the hosts, the Winter Olympics and Paralympic Winter Games are not only a sports event, but also a cultural promotion action. The inheritance and utilization of olympic culture and Olympic heritage have always implemented the "people-centered" development concept in terms of content design and participation form. "Let the ice and snow sports enter the homes of ordinary people, which is the biggest success of the mainland to host the Winter Olympics." Huang Haiyan, a professor at the Shanghai University of Sport, believes that the active participation of the public is a vivid embodiment of the Olympic culture taking root in society.

In order to give full play to the leading role of the "Olympic" brand, with the authorization of the International Olympic Committee, the three competition areas of Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou have set up Olympic Parks and Olympic Parks respectively. Its planning and construction follow the principle of sustainable development, and after the game, it will rely on the rich sports venues and cultural facilities resources in the competition area to form a unique urban cultural and sports activity space and enrich the urban cultural supply. In addition, by the end of 2021, 43 Winter Olympic Cultural Squares have been built across the country, and the "spillover effect" of the Winter Olympics will radiate everywhere.

Feng Jianzhong, deputy director of the Education, Science, Health and Sports Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, said that the sports culture transmitted by the Beijing Winter Olympics and The Winter Paralympic Games is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and subtly changes the lives of the masses.

Tell a good ice and snow story and show cultural self-confidence

Whether it is practicing the Olympic concept of "green, sharing, openness and integrity", or the intelligent and humanized presentation of venue facilities and event operations, the Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games are full of rich Chinese style inside and outside the venue, leaving a deep impression on the participating athletes and spectators.

At the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the main torch composed of pieces of "small snowflakes" symbolized the tight unity of the world and profoundly explained the Olympic concept of sustainable development with "micro-fire". Sun Baoli, a professor at Beijing Sport University, said: "The ignition ceremony connects nature and properly infiltrates Chinese culture into the Olympic concept, which will have a more profound impact on the development of the Olympic movement." ”

The mascots of the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympic Winter Games, which are based on pandas and lanterns, "Ice Pier" and "Snow Rongrong", have won the love of many fans at home and abroad during the Games. Wang Yuxiong, director of the Sports Economics Research Center of the Central University of Finance and Economics, said: "The success of 'ice pier' and 'snow rongrong' is first reflected in cultural creativity, and then through the dissemination on media platforms such as the Internet, Chinese culture has a modern and international expression." ”

The smooth holding of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games and the Winter Paralympic Games is inseparable from the joint efforts of many Winter Olympic builders and workers. In the view of Jin Yuanpu, a professor at Chinese Min University, Chinese people's strong self-confidence in national culture includes the optimistic and upward spirit of the current Chinese people, the high morale of fighting hard, and the open and inclusive attitude.

Do a good job in people-to-people exchanges and promote mutual learning among civilizations

At the Beijing Winter Olympic games and the Winter Paralympic Games, Chinese culture and ice and snow elements reflect each other, reflecting the beauty of nature, humanities and sports.

On the first match day after the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics, the curling mixed doubles event, the Chinese team combination Fan Suyuan/Ling Zhi and the American team players exchanged badges after the game, and exquisite gifts conveyed friendly blessings.

At the Freestyle Skiing Aerial Skills Competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics, after Xu Mengtao, an athlete of the Chinese delegation, won the women's gold medal, Ashley Caldwell, an athlete of the American delegation who fell to fourth place due to a mistake in the last jump, smiled and took the initiative to hug Xu Mengtao: "Peach, you are the champion!" Some netizens commented: "This peach is touching." ”

The friendship of the country lies in the affinity of the people, and the affinity of the people lies in the communication of hearts. Sun Baoli said: "Sports is an international language, especially on a platform like the Olympic Games, people come with peace and friendship, but also with the concept of unity and tolerance. ”

The Beijing Winter Olympics coincided with the Spring Festival, and the participating athletes and international friends posted Spring Festival Leagues in the Winter Olympic Village, ate dumplings, learned tai chi, and experienced traditional Chinese medicine treatment... IOC President Bach spent the Spring Festival in China for the first time, "The Winter Olympics and the Spring Festival are the perfect combination. He held the word "Fu" in his hand to pay homage to everyone, "The tiger symbolizes courage, strength and success, which is also the blessing I sent to the Chinese people during the Spring Festival." ”

For a long time, the Olympic Movement has built a bridge of communication to promote friendly exchanges between peoples in all countries and regions of the world, promoted the people of the world to seek common ground while reserving differences in exchanges, and played a role in enhancing mutual understanding, trust and friendship. "The Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games will demonstrate the diversity, equality and inclusiveness of civilizations in all countries and regions, and call on everyone to build a world of mutual learning and win-win cooperation." Huang Haiyan said.
