So that live fish key chain souvenir didn't turn out to be very official, but this latest Olympic cheer, "Go Olympics! Go China!" (奥运加油！中国加油！) definitely is, as it comes with the stamp of approval of the Party Office of Spiritual Civilization Development and Guidance (GODPP), the Ministry of Education, BOCOG, and CCTV. There are four highly complex moves to the cheer, but don't worry because Danwei has this step-by-step pictorial guide to help you along. Expect to see lots of this on telly in the 64 days left between now and the Olympics. No excuses now — you have more than ample time to master the moves.

We told you about the possibility, but now it is OFFICIAL. China does want to be the next world power in cheerleading. We hear that a series of competitions are being held across schools and tertiary institutions, fitness centres and community clubs across China to select 200 cheerleaders for the Olympic Games. Before you know it, some of them will be mixing acrobatics into their cheerleading routine.
