*** *** Welcome to spend the new year with us this year. *** We will honor our commitments and present a simple, safe and wonderful Olympic Games to the world. This novel coronavirus pneumonia is the first comprehensive global sports event held on schedule for the first time since the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia. It is a successful practice of the Olympic motto of "faster, higher, stronger and more united". *** Nearly 3000 athletes from about 90 countries and regions participated in this winter Olympic Games. It is the Winter Olympic Games with the largest number of events and gold medals, which provides an opportunity for more athletes to realize their dreams here. With athletes as the center, we will make every effort to provide hardware and software support for venue facilities and provide all-round services. We are fully confident to ensure the health and safety of the participants, relevant personnel and the Chinese people. *** Through unremitting efforts, this vision has been successfully realized. "Ice and snow are also golden mountains and silver mountains". The holding of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games has also driven the development of China's ice and snow sports industry and ice and snow economy. China has successively held the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the 2014 Nanjing Youth Olympic Games and the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games, which has stimulated the Chinese people's enthusiasm for the Olympic movement, promoted the development of China's sports undertakings and played an important role in spreading the Olympic spirit around the world. The "more unity" advocated by the Olympic movement is what is most needed in today's era. Instead of being in more than 190 small boats, countries around the world might as well be in the same big boat and have a better future together. Therefore, we put forward the slogan of "going to the future together" for the Beijing Winter Olympics. China will make new and greater contributions to the Olympic movement and the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind. I look forward to witnessing with you the important moment of the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics. Bach first congratulated the Chinese people in Chinese on the happy Spring Festival and the auspicious year of the tiger! Bach said that with the joint efforts of relevant Chinese departments and the Chinese people, the preparations for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games were excellent and smooth, and the wonderful venues, comprehensive epidemic prevention measures and advanced sustainable operation concept were amazing. We appreciate China's efficiency, determination and vitality! Thank China for its warm hospitality and thoughtful arrangements for the IOC and athletes from all countries. I believe that the effective measures taken by China will ensure the safe, smooth and successful holding of this winter Olympic Games and let athletes from all over the world gather in Beijing to participate in the grand event! We have full confidence in this! China has achieved the goal of more than 300 million people engaged in ice and snow sports, which is a great achievement never seen before. It will be a major contribution to the Chinese people and the International Olympic movement by this winter Olympic Games, and will open a new era of global ice and snow sports from then on. This time, some countries sent delegations to attend the Winter Olympics for the first time, which fully shows that the Beijing Winter Olympics has received extensive support from the international community, and the international community is generally opposed to politicizing sports. I hope the year of the tiger will not only be a year of courage and strength, but also a year of health and happiness for the Chinese people! The Beijing Winter Olympic Games will become the best year of the tiger gift from the world to the Chinese people! Wish the world more unity! Ding Xuexiang, Yang Jiechi, Cai Qi and Wang Yi attended the meeting. (Xinhua News Agency)
