Sports Industry Booms in China Thanks to
2008 Beijing Olympic Games



China, particularly its capital
Beijing, will be the focus
of world attention in the
coming years as the 2008
Olympic Games will be
staged in the capital city.
As China is to host the

many international sports
organizations have set up
