On July 20, Olympic champion Long Qingquan unveiled his wax statue at the Changsha Bubugao Meixi Xintiandi Wax Museum. The wax statue recreates the historical moment when Long Qingquan raised his barbell with both hands and broke the world record at the Olympic Games. Long Qingquan won the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, and eight years later won the title again at the Rio Olympics, breaking the world record of 16 years of silence with a total score of 307 kg.
