(openPR) - When the International Olympic Committee gave the floor to China in 2001 to host the 2008 Olympic Games, the Chinese government did not know what they were up against. Girding for the battles of media scrutiny, this Asian country cleaned up her act through major engineering of the entire city of Beijing.
Tales of this reconstruction are recorded and disclosed in the Xlibris release, China Readies for Its Close-Up. Author Linn Weiss, who traveled and travailed in China for nearly a month in 2007, recounts his experience of this transition. With illustrations of various places that Weiss has been to, this self-published book is a vibrant memoir, which convinced people that China rightfully won the 2008 bid.
"The winning of the 2008 Olympic bid is an example of the international recognition of China's social stability, economic progress and the healthy life of the Chinese people," said Li Lanqing, the vice premier of China. This Xlibris release is timely enough to illustrate that example and prove the nation’s stability and progress. Weiss presents these facts through words and pictures that clearly confirm China’s well-deserved recognition.
China Readies for Its Close-Up is an in-depth look into the preparations for the major undertaking that was the 2008 Olympic Games, which propelled China into the international limelight.
