IN SEARCH OF GOLD

The Chinese delegation holds a flag-raising ceremony at the Rio Olympic Village on August 3, two days ahead of the opening of this year’s Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Over 400 Chinese athletes are set to compete in 210 events across 26 sports during the games, which last from August 5 to 21.

China is expected to win a number of gold medals, particularly in sports in which Chinese athletes traditionally excel such as table tennis, badminton, gymnastics, weightlifting, shooting and diving.
