"Here's a piece of news...... Ensuring the smooth and successful bid for the Olympic Games......"

"Son, do you say that our country's bid for the 08 Olympic Games this time will be successful?" Wang Jianguo looked at Wang Haoan next to him, and the news said that China's bid for the Olympics this time was inevitable.

"Are you confused, the announcement of the results of the Olympic bid is next year, why are you in a hurry now? Li Fangqin put a plate of cut fruit on the table. Besides, can you help with the Olympic bid?

"Mom, in fact, the results of the Olympic bid have basically been decided, as long as there are no major accidents in our country before the results are announced. ”

"Is this still decided? Then the last time it was decided to be in Sydney, so we only lost by two votes?" Li Fangqin looked surprised, is there such a thing?

"Mom, it's not actually an internal decision, it still has to be voted on. But when was the last time you made the choice, and what was the strength of our country like at that time?"

"Now that our country's economic development is rapid, Xiangjiang and Aocheng have returned, and the international status has been further improved. ”

Some people say that the reason why China lost last time was not because China was not strong enough, but also because China did not join the WTO at that time, and the tariffs imposed on the products of many countries were extremely heavy, resulting in their products being unable to open up sales channels in the Chinese market.

At that time, the economy in China was not very good, people were relatively poor, and how many people were willing to spend money to pursue foreign brands? Even many people didn't even care about the brand, just to see if it could be used and whether it was cheap enough.

The developed countries in Europe and the United States have long been interested in the large market with a population of more than one billion, although the economic situation is relatively poor, but the political ~~ governance environment is the same, which is much more cost-effective than those small countries in Europe.

It's just that at that time, Huaxia Zhengaxe understood that there was a big gap between domestic products and international products. In addition, Huaxia is in a critical period of reform and opening up, and has begun to try the first state-owned enterprise restructuring, encouraging intellectuals to go to the sea to start a business, and dare not let a large number of products from the international market enter Huaxia and impact the local market. Therefore, we have a resistance to joining the WTO.

But now it is different, in '95, Huaxia entered the WTO's watch list. In fact, Huaxia Zhengaxe also knows that after joining the WTO, there are many benefits, and this is a mutually beneficial international organization.

However, what the Chinese government requires is other aspects of treatment, and the conditions of the WTO for developed countries and developing ~~~ countries are also different, and there are many protective provisions for developing ~~~ countries.

It is this protection clause that China wants, not to join directly as a developed country or abandon some of the clauses, as the Western powers demanded.

In terms of economic aggregates and other figures, China is much stronger than many developed countries, even ten years ago. However, in terms of per capita, it is really only a developing ~~~ country, which is stronger than some poor countries, but there is still a big gap with developed countries, and it is expected to take decades to erase it.

Some people say that the last time China failed to compete in Sydney, it was because some developed countries united to boycott China and force Huaxia to accept their conditions, and the reason why the votes were so close was because before the vote, Huaxia was given the opportunity to choose.

But for the sake of the interests of his country, Huaxia bit it to death and did not let go. At that time, the chief designer was still there, and those big countries did not dare to do anything with Huaxia, for fear that this hardliner would directly fight them with hard steel.

If Wang Haoan remembers correctly, in his previous life, he formally joined the WTO shortly after China won the right to host the Olympic Games, and of course he joined as a developing ~~~ country, and he continued to enjoy the GSP and so on.

In fact, it can be seen from the city that competes with China for the 08 Olympic Games this time, the island country has the smallest chance of big board, so it is not the largest city in the island country, and now the economic environment of the island country is not very good, and the social security is not very good, all of which were caused by the economic crisis in the nineties, and it has not fully recovered after ten years.

France's Bali is not bad, and the economy is very good now, but it has held two Olympic Games, can't the benefits be all yours?

Istanbul, the city is developed enough, the country's economy is good, and it is a very historic ancient city, and it has not hosted the Olympic Games.

But last year, there was just a burning ~~~~ bomb attack, how can you say that such a city with such poor security can host the Olympics?

The only possible competition is Ghana's multi-round multi-round. But the last Atlanta Olympics made it too commercial, and the multi-round businessmen were no worse than Atlanta, and the geographical distance was also close.

What's more, the multi-round multi-political axe doesn't seem to be particularly keen on this, and the construction cost they promise to invest in the stadium is too small, which is not as good as the atmosphere of China.

In such a comparison, it can be seen that the capital of China is the most suitable city, after all, it was prepared eight years ago.

"Son, you said we would be able to make it, right? Then we will be able to watch the Olympics at our doorstep. I've heard that bidding for the Olympics costs money and public relations, is that right?" Wang Jianguo asked again.

"Pretty much, if you want someone else to vote, you have to give them some benefits. Of course, you can't give it openly, you have to cooperate somewhat. ”

All international votes are linked to interests. Before each vote, the big powers and the countries directly involved in it will pull ties in various ways in order to ensure their own interests.

Of course, Huaxia has not done this less, otherwise it would not have been supporting African countries in various ways, isn't it because they have the right to vote? Of course, it may also have to do with the resources of those countries.

"Dad, I remember that you didn't seem to watch much sports before, that is, you liked table tennis or something, why are you so excited about this Olympics?"

"Who's to say I don't like it? I didn't like it before. This time is different, look at it directly at the doorstep, our country will hold it, it will definitely look good. ”

"We are all Chinese, can we not be excited about matters related to the honor of the country? I have heard that the requirements of the Olympic Committee this time are very high, and the amount of money that our country needs to invest in construction is not a small amount. ”

The corners of Wang Haoan's mouth twitched twice: "Dad, I know." Rest assured, this Olympic Games will be held smoothly. Our country is not short of money, and if there is a need for funds, there are people who want to donate money, and I will definitely not be stingy. ”

"I can donate my pension as well. Wang Jianguo added.

Wang Haoan smiled, this may be the truest idea of many Chinese people now, national honor, above all else, the national Olympic bid.

But in fact, holding the Olympics is not only a matter of honor, but more importantly, it is the economic and social benefits brought by the Olympics.
