Out-of-date conclusion. It might be true 4 month ago, but not now. The west taught Chinese that olympic is a western thing and narrow-minded west is not happy about China hosting it. They could grant it to a poor China 7 years ago but not to a strong China now. Chinese can only blame themselves for developing too quickly and eighty percent of Chinese are looking forward to the closing ceremony when they can sigh a relief and talk with another voice.</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2008/07/21/why_all_the_olympic_hype_the_chines.php#comment-1413097 http://shanghaiist.com/2008/07/21/why_all_the_olympic_hype_the_chines.php#comment-1413097 Comments Mon, 21 Jul 2008 22:03:53 +0800 <p>Hi. I made the video. All the people featured are either neighbours, friends, or others we see regularly, except for the one female student, who was a random passerby that got cajoled into it by the guy who guards the bikes near the gym where we exercise. I blogged it on our own site: ChinaHopeLive.net</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2008/07/21/why_all_the_olympic_hype_the_chines.php#comment-1412978 http://shanghaiist.com/2008/07/21/why_all_the_olympic_hype_the_chines.php#comment-1412978 Comments Mon, 21 Jul 2008 12:49:45 +0800 <p>.. anyone who answered incorrectly was jailed! http://fakesteveballmer.blogspot.com </p>
