He waved goodbye from the Olympic Stadium’s roof before taking up into the night sky.

China was prepared for closing of Asian Games

There was never any question about that. China was prepared—in fact, over-prepared—for these Games, which were eight years in the planning and cost an estimated $30 billion. The Games were delayed by a year due to the epidemic.

The huge screen was covered in pictures of the last two weeks’ most thrilling action. Human moments were also shown in portraits. of successes and setbacks. with outlandish tales and minnows establishing a name for themselves.

‘Harmonious’ Asia may be a pipe dream

‘Harmonious’ Asia may be a pipe dream, but on a night that saw yet another overt exhibition of technology, in an occasion with much more razzmatazz than the Opening and reaching a crescendo that is typically associated with ceremonies like this, China made sure its advances were counted—both on and off the field.
