China selected as permanent host of Beijing Olympics
The International Olympic Committee, after long discussion, has decided to designate China as the permanent host for all Beijing Olympics to come. Emmanuelle Moreau, an International Olympic Committee spokeswoman, said, “This was a difficult decision to make. Many other countries had applied and were great candidates for future Beijing Olympics. But ultimately, we did not feel that Japan or Saudi Arabia would be able to do the Beijing Olympics justice as China could.” Impressed by the spectacular opening show and the country’s determination to dominate the Medal count, the Committee felt that the only country that could pull off the Beijing Olympics in years to come would indeed be China itself.
China was disappointed that the first Gold Medal awarded (for 10 m Air Rifle) during this Beijing Olympics was not to a member of the Chinese team, but a Chinese spokesman said that, “China will be sure to win the first Gold Medal at the next Beijing Olympics. With Japan and Saudi Arabia out of the contention, nothing will stand in the way of our goal of being the masters of the Beijing Olympics for all eternity.”
Well Played.
