The Olympic Games, the world's most influential multi-sport event, are held every four years and attract the attention of billions of viewers around the world.
The Olympic Games are about to kick off in Paris, and as a country with a long history and rich cultural heritage, France is indeed an excellent choice to host the Games.
However, while preparations were in full swing, there were many surprising news from the Paris Olympics.
From the water quality problems of the Seine, to the "theft" of the security plan, to the opposition from all sides, all this has caused headaches for the French leadership.
Naturally, none of this will affect the hosting of the Paris Olympics.
However, we have reason to believe that in the minds of the audience, a successful Olympic Games requires not only high-level competition, but also an unforgettable opening ceremony.
And all this, perhaps, is inseparable from the management of the Seine.
What's the story behind the Olympics?
Since Paris's successful bid to host this Olympic Games, the whole of France has been boiling like a pot, and the people of various cities are boiling.
At the national level, preparations are in full swing.
In order to be able to successfully host this grand event, the French government spared no expense and successively carried out a multi-faceted renovation and upgrading project for the city of Paris.
For example, substantial improvements have been made in the city's transportation construction, the improvement of public facilities, and the improvement of environmental sanitation. Even asked for help from 46 countries
As the "protagonist" of the entire Olympic Games, the Seine has received special attention.
In the plan for the opening ceremony, the French planning team took the Seine River as the "main stage" of the opening ceremony, hoping to show the unique cultural history and natural scenery of France through this arrangement.
In addition, the water quality of the Seine has also been the focus of attention from all walks of life.
In the past, in order to make the river water meet the standards of swimming competitions, the Paris government has invested a lot of manpower and material resources to carry out all-round purification and treatment of the river water.
It can be said that this Olympic Games is not only a sports event, but also a "big test" of France's overall strength.
The "past and present" of the Seine, how did France govern it?
The Seine, as the mother river of France, naturally has a rich historical and cultural connotation.
It is because of this river that Paris has such beautiful natural scenery and unique cityscape.
However, the water quality of the Seine has always been a serious problem since ancient times.
Especially during the Industrial Revolution, almost all the wastewater discharged from various factories was discharged directly into the river.
Coupled with the domestic sewage of urban residents, the "dirty" degree of the Seine River can be said to be worthy of its name.
Therefore, in order to effectively improve the water quality of the Seine, it is not enough to treat the river water alone.
To this end, the Paris government has also carried out a city-wide sewage system upgrade project, hoping to solve the problem of river water pollution at its root.
During this period, the Seine also became an important place for the "National Movement".
In addition to the government's formal management work, people from all walks of life in the whole society are also actively involved in the protection and improvement of the river.
Through this joint effort, the water quality of the Seine has gradually improved, and a variety of rare aquatic plants and animals have begun to thrive here.
Of course, in order to truly solve the problem of river water pollution, we also need the long-term participation and joint efforts of the whole society.
An unforgettable opening ceremony, "Dirty River" can also be a highlight?
Speaking of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, I believe everyone will have a lot of deep impressions.
The opening ceremony of each Olympic Games will showcase the cultural heritage and creative strength of the host country.
And in the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, the audience may be able to see some "unexpected" performances.
It is reported that the French planning team has fully integrated the "characteristics" of the Seine into the performance of the opening ceremony.
At that time, all the athlete delegations will take a cruise ship and follow the direction of the Seine River, and successively "appear" on the stage of the entire opening ceremony.
On the sailing route of the cruise ship, some "crossing the river" performances are also specially arranged, so that the audience can enjoy the major attractions of Paris city up close.
Finally, when the boat arrives downstream of the Eiffel Tower, a custom-made Olympic cauldron is lit to conclude the opening ceremony.
It can be said that such an opening ceremony design can not only show the rich cultural landscape of France, but also allow audiences all over the world to feel the unique charm of the "romantic capital".
Nowadays, the problem has not been solved, and it is not so simple to lose the synonym of "dirty river" and become a "business card" of France.
I hope that in the Paris Olympic Games, the Seine River will also show a new look and become a beautiful landscape.
Perhaps, the "Dirty River" does have its own "mission", hoping that after being fully purified, it can become a "cultural corridor" of the city, holding various major events, bringing unlimited imagination space and performance possibilities.
