When modern sports are mentioned, it is invariably to be associated with the Olympic Games and the Asian Games and some other world competitions.
说到当代中国体育，就会毫不犹豫地把奥运会，亚运会等世界性的比赛和它联系到一起。
After the foundation of the New China, the Chinese people pay more and more attention to the life quality, physical health, and the communication with the world with the development of the economy and the increase of the national strength. One of the important channels to communicate with the world is the joining in the world and global sports competitions-the Olympic Games, World Cups competitions and the Asian Games.

The Olympic Games as a global meeting has its tight organization and administratioin-its complete set of charter, the International Olympic Committee, the IFs and Nocs and a system of protocol. In recent years, the Chinese athletes have fantastic performances in the Olympic Games. Table tennis, badminton, and diving and so on are the advantages of the Chinese athletes. A number of Olympic champions have emerged. The Asian Games is especially the magnificent sports meet of the Chinese people and China ranks first all the time. The Gymnast Li Ning is one of the greatest athletes of the 20th century in the world. There are a great number of world athletes in China such as Deng Yaping, Liu Guoliang, Yao Ming, Fu Mingxia and Liu Xiang etc. They give off bright light on the world sports successively.
