Why the Olympics will start on August 8

When bidding for the 2008 Olympic Games, the Beijing Olympic Bidding Committee set the competition date from July 25 to August 10, 2008 in accordance with the unified requirements of the International Olympic Committee (IOC). After winning the right to hold the event, the meteorological department put forward a suggestion: considering the specific situation of Beijing's summer weather, the weather in July is hot and humid, and the main flood season in Beijing from late July to early August is relatively high, and the frequency of disastrous weather such as heavy rain, strong winds, high temperature and sultry is relatively high.

In terms of solar terms, around August 8 is the beginning of autumn, and after that, the weather gradually cools, and it is most suitable for Beijing to host the Summer Olympics after August 8. In August 2002, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee made the first request to change the opening ceremony at the working meeting of the IOC Coordination Committee. Mr. Feeley, the executive chairman of the IOC, said that the postponement of the opening date of the Beijing Olympics could be discussed, but the postponement should not exceed two weeks.

In December 2002, the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games formally proposed to the IOC to change the time of the Games. In July 2003, after the 115th Plenary Session of the International Olympic Committee, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) officially informed the Beijing Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games that the opening date of the Beijing Olympic Games was set for August 8, 2008.

In July 2004, the Beijing Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games decided to set 8 p.m. on August 8, 2008 as the finish time of the countdown clock for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games in Tiananmen Square.

Of course, 8888! Auspicious.

The Chinese are auspicious.

First of all, of course, the Summer Olympics will be held in the summer! In addition, because Beijing has been a little cooler since mid-August, it has been taken back for a month, and it is set in August! I originally wanted to be in mid-August, the 18th, but in that case, it would affect the US Open that followed, so I took measures forward for 10 days and set it for August 8th!
