Modern Olympiad
The modern Olympic Games is a modern social and cultural phenomenon constructed in the name of restoring the ancient Olympic Games, which follows the name of the Olympic Games, inherits the tradition of the "Olympiad" every four years, borrows and develops certain rituals, and absorbs the ancient traditional ideas of fair competition, courageous struggle, and harmonious development of body and mind. However, the modern Olympic Games are not a continuation and reproduction of the ancient Olympic Games, they are a new social and cultural phenomenon produced in a new context, and there are essential differences between them.
The ancient Olympic Games have been held in Olympia in Greece for 1,200 years since 776 BC. Originally a religious ritual, it gradually evolved into a sporting event, and the pentathlon at that time included discus, javelin, long jump, and running; Wrestling and boxing, running, boxing, wrestling, boxing, wrestling, mixed movement of boxing and wrestling, carriage racing and horseback riding.

The founder of the modern Olympic Games was Pierre de Coubertin.
Lebaron Pierre de Coubertin was born on January 1, 1863, in Paris, France, into an aristocratic family, the fourth and youngest child in the family. In 1471, one of his ancestors received a title of nobility from King Louis XI.
He was born on January 1, 1863 in Paris, France, into a very wealthy aristocratic family. From 1896 to 1925, he served as President of the International Olympic Committee and designed the Olympic emblem and Olympic flag. Because of his immortal achievements to the Olympic Games, he is internationally known as the "Father of the Olympic Games".
On April 5, 1896, the first Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece. At the opening ceremony, King George of Greece praised Coubertin's contributions. After the Athens Olympics, Viqueiras resigned as president of the Olympic Committee and Coubertin was elected president of the IOC for the second term.
At the 5th Olympic Games in Stockholm, Sweden, 1912. In response to some shortcomings in sports competitions at that time, Coubertin published the famous poem "Ode to Sports", which won the gold medal of the literary and artistic competition of this Olympic Games.

Before the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, there was no televised Olympics and the sponsorship system was not systematic. Because of the loss of money, the Olympics has become a hot potato. The Olympics in Brazil are finally open.
At this moment, you may be lying on the sofa, amused by the witty words on TV, but I don't know if you have ever thought that the live broadcast came from **. Before the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, there was no televised Olympic Games, the sponsorship system was not systematic, and even, because of the loss, the Olympics became a hot potato, and no one was willing to bid for it.
It wasn't until Peter Ueberroth came along that the Olympics became a lucrative industry. The 23rd Olympic Games were held in Los Angeles, a famous city in the western United States, from July 28 to August 12, 1984, and were the most successful and largest Olympic Games in the history of the Olympic Games. At that time, more than 7,000 athletes from 140 countries and regions participated in the competition, which was significantly more than the last Moscow Olympics (81 countries and regions) and the 1972 Munich Olympics, which had the most countries and regions.
What is particularly refreshing is that the Olympics recorded a surplus of 100 million US dollars, which was an unprecedented financial success for the Games. How badly did Xu Haifeng lose money before he won China's first Olympic gold medal at the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984? To give you a look at a set of numbers:
The 1972 Munich Olympics cost $1 billion and cost $600 million, and the 1976 Montreal Olympics cost $2 billion and lost $1 billion, and the city was on the verge of bankruptcy, leaving the 3 million residents with debts that could only be paid off in 20 years. <>
The 1980 Moscow Olympics cost $9 billion without getting a penny back, and since then, no one wants to take over the loss-making business, so only one city in Los Angeles applied for the 1984 Olympics and naturally won the bid. <>
The above are my personal thoughts, and there are different ideas that can be discussed below.
