The crystal sweat behind the glorious Olympics

Central District Volunteer Shao Haiqing

2008year8month8日,The eyes of the whole world are focused on a vast Asian country,This is our great motherland - China. As one of the four most ancient countries in history and civilization in the world, after years of hard work, China has not only made world-renowned achievements in economic development, but has also continued to create miracles in the spiritual and cultural fields, shocking the world time and time again. It is for these reasons that we have the honor of hosting the Olympic Games.8month8日, China once again used its unique cultural heritage to create a brilliant opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. As a volunteer serving the Olympic Games, I am particularly excited and proud to see the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games at our doorstep.

I have to say that the success of this Olympic Games opening ceremony far exceeded our expectations. A picture scroll with Chinese characteristics interspersed throughout the axis of the opening ceremony, but it was expressed in a unique and original way, giving people a refreshing feeling. The gorgeous lights and the beautiful stage performances have amazed the whole world. The opening fou-beating dance with thousands of people, the huge but uniform Tai Chi performance, and the graceful and elegant painting performance are all unforgettable. All these achievements make all Chinese people proud, and they also bring us great glory.

But then I thought about it, how did the Olympic Games become such a successful one? What I want to say is that all of this is poured out by the sweat of the Chinese people. Taking my personal job as an example, our job is to operate licensed merchandise in the main press center. The customers we face are journalists from all over the world. Our goal is to help them to the greatest extent so that they can appreciate and purchase their favorite Olympic products during their free time at work. At the same time, as professional students who can speak languages ​​other than English, we must use our professional expertise to help them at critical moments so that others can understand what they mean and meet their requirements more accurately. But if you look carefully, you will find that such a position is not so easy to operate. First of all, our team starts every morning7Must gather at half past one and then take the bus to the venue. Since there are so many people taking public transportation to work in the morning, it is difficult for us to get on the bus on time. Often one or two people arrive first, and others arrive one after another. After arriving at the main news center, we will get into work mode. The store must be cleaned, every container must be sorted, and trucks of new goods must be put on the shelves. The goods in the warehouse must then be inventoried, classified, and then put on gloves to wipe each valuable souvenir with professional cleaning agents. The next step is to open a store and sell. Since it is a storefront business place, we all have to stand during the entire process. For us college students, we have never tried to stand for a day9hours of life, and now in order to host our Olympic Games better, we must stand and greet guests with a good mental state. When peak hours come, it is often necessary to take care of both3-4guests, but each reporter's needs are different. By the time we rummaged through the boxes and found what they wanted, we were exhausted. What we received in exchange was thumbs up of approval from foreign reporters and "Chinese people are awesome!" said in jerky Chinese. We stayed like this until the evening10Point, there may be no time to eat or rest in between, but all of this is to serve the Olympics, and everyone is willing to do so without a single complaint. Sometimes we need to extend service hours,8month8日We are open until early morning2Point, whenever we receive goods, we work all night. The next day, everyone still had a satisfied smile on their tired cheeks. This is our job, simple, repetitive, and even boring, but our services are indispensable in the main news center and we are indispensable for the successful hosting of the Olympic Games. At the same time, everyone understands: We are glorious, because our crystal sweat and our smiling faces are included in the gorgeous fireworks of the Olympic Games.

There are many volunteers like us. We are all serving the Olympics with hard work and sweat, just as the slogan says: "I participate! I contribute! I am happy!" I believe that with everyone's efforts, our Olympic Games will be wonderful! With everyone's efforts, our motherland will surely become stronger and more prosperous!(Reprinted from "Briefing of the Volunteer Team in the Central District of the w88 casino" No.19Issue, slightly modified by the editor)
