After Beijing successfully bid for the 29th Olympic Games in 2001, the preparatory work for the Games began in an all-round way. In order to make the Games a success, Beijing has invested more than 260 billion yuan since 2002 to build stadiums, renovate infrastructure and improve the environment. The seven years during which Beijing prepared for the Olympic Games were also the seven years during which China's economy continued to grow rapidly. The role of hosting the Olympic Games in promoting Beijing's social and economic development is even more obvious. First of all, Beijing's economy has continued to grow at a high rate. From 2002 to 2007, its GDP grew at an average annual rate of 12.3%, higher than the national average annual growth rate of 10.5% during the same period. Second, Beijing has made great progress in its infrastructure construction. By July 2008, Beijing's rail transit mileage had reached 200 kilometers. 26 fast connection lines have been built between new urban areas and urban centers, and between cities and suburbs. The newly built 8-lane expressway from Beijing to Tianjin, the co-host city of the Olympic Games, and the intercity railway with a speed of 300 km/h were put into operation in July 2008, basically forming a modern transportation network for Beijing as an international metropolis. Third, the construction of high-level stadiums has been completed. In order to build 37 venues for the 29th Olympic Games, Beijing built or expanded 31 competition venues and 45 training venues. Fourth, remarkable progress has been made in environmental governance and development. Beijing's energy consumption per 10,000 yuan of GDP fell from 1.13 tons of standard coal in 2000 to 0.72 tons in 2007. Chemical oxygen demand and Sulfur dioxide Emissions in 2007 were 58% and 25% lower than in 2000. In 2007, the number of days with air quality above or below grade II accounted for 67%, and will exceed 70% in 2008. The treatment of rivers and lakes within Beijing's Sixth Ring Road has been basically completed. The urban green coverage rate reached 43%. [14]
The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games enhanced China's international reputation, strengthened national identity, enhanced social cohesion, enhanced social integration, improved social atmosphere, enhanced the government's administrative capacity and accelerated the process of social development [8] .
For the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, BOCOG's revenue will reach 20.5 billion yuan, 800 million yuan more than the budgeted figure, and its expenditure will reach 19.343 billion yuan, a slight increase over the budgeted figure, with a balance of revenue and expenditure exceeding 1 billion yuan [9] .
The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games has made China increasingly confident, and its attitude and style as a big country have been shaped and tempered. The Beijing Olympic Games fulfilled China's century-old dream and made China more confident, more open and more progressive. After the Beijing Olympic Games, China is more committed to peaceful, open and cooperative development, and is committed to working with the people of other countries to build a harmonious world of lasting peace and common prosperity [10] .
