Chapter 568 Opening Ceremony Begins

Knowing the pitfall, Chen Yu naturally wouldn't sit idly by and began a frantic training and exploration.

There was no other way; it was a 3% margin of error. Chen Yu had to find that feeling and use his body to familiarize himself with and memorize the data.

"Chen Yu, you've done very well. Just conserve your energy!" Director Zhang advised, seeing Chen Yu practice repeatedly and getting exhausted each time, fearing something might go wrong.

"It's not good, it's not good enough at all. My body doesn't remember my previous movements. After comprehensive calculation, I found that if my body can't remember these movements, there will definitely be problems in the end."

"My current error is still about 10 percent away from my target," Chen Yu said softly.

Chen Yu would deliberately memorize many points each time to ensure that his body could remember them and meet his requirements.

"But in our opinion, that's enough! If you keep pushing your body like this, you might collapse before you even get started!" Director Zhang advised.

"It's okay, I know my body, I'm sure of myself. My principle is either not to do it at all, or to do it to the best of my ability!" Chen Yu was also speechless. He didn't want to do it either, he was always exhausted, but he had no choice. Faced with the threat of mission failure, he had to do this.

Left with no other option, Director Zhang had to agree to Chen Yu's request.

The filming of "iPartment" was not delayed because of Chen Yu's absence. The script, the camera, and everyone were present. Moreover, everyone in the crew was an old acquaintance, so filming was very familiar with each other.

They knew Chen Yu was busy with the lighting ceremony, so they had no objection to his absence from the set. On the contrary, they proactively arranged for Chen Yu's scenes to be separated, waiting for his arrival.

At 8:50 p.m. on August 8, 2008, amidst cheerful music, President No. 19, along with leaders from various countries including Rogge and Samaranch, as well as personnel from the International Olympic Committee, walked onto the stage and waved to the audience. The entire stadium erupted in thunderous applause.

With the cooperation of technology companies such as Zhanlong Technology and Crazy, the giant footprint has begun to appear in the eyes of the world.

"What you see now is a fireworks display jointly developed by companies such as Zhanlong Technology, Crazy, Peak Military Industry, and Brilliant Salute. As you can see, the grand moment of the Olympic Games is approaching us step by step!"

Compared to the pre-recorded broadcasts on Earth, the giant footprints used this time were developed separately and tested multiple times to ensure they would appear flawlessly at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

The research and development of fireworks alone cost 2.876 million yuan, which is enough to break the Guinness World Record!

Fortunately, the money came from Crazy and Zhanlong Technology, and the results also belong to Crazy and Zhanlong Technology. There's no room for negotiation on this point. Of course, the Olympic Committee will also pay a corresponding reward, which is 5000 million.

Fifty million for 29 giant footprints—this is a feat few can accomplish. But considering the results, the 5000 million was well worth it.

This was definitely a highlight of the opening ceremony.

As expected, the appearance of the giant footprint shocked the world.

"My goodness, this is truly amazing! The fireworks are absolutely top-notch. Zhanlong Technology and Crazy are indeed the most awesome technology companies in our country."

"That's good, but I estimate that those dozens of big foot prints must have cost a lot. But the visual effect is amazing. It's impressive that they can pinpoint and ignite the fireworks so precisely."

"I originally thought Zhanlong Technology was a company that developed chips and iPhones, but I didn't expect them to be doing research in this area too. That's really impressive!"

"Crazy is a real technology company, not just a simple social networking company!"

"You may not know that Crazy is already a behemoth in the advertising industry. Whether offline or online, Crazy is an unshakeable empire."

"It's so beautiful! I never imagined that China could create such beautiful and stunning fireworks. The idea is amazing, absolutely incredible!"

"This is amazing! It's truly breathtaking. I give this giant footprint a 99 out of 100!"

Countless people have a very good impression and feeling about the giant footprint. Of course, people know that it must have cost a lot of money, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, the money has already been spent, and it was worth it.

Next up is a cultural performance.

After a series of grand and culturally rich programs, it was finally time for the theme song.

"Next up is Chen Yu, a youth idol of our country, the world's youngest scientist, the youngest master-level singer, and the world's richest man, and British diva Brightman, who will bring us the theme song of the 29th Olympic Games, 'You and Me'!"

This not only embodies the "internationalization" of the combination of Chinese and foreign elements, but also brings together the Kyoto Olympics and the Beijing Olympics. As you can see, the projection screen above the stadium displays 2008 smiling faces of children from all over the world. The heartfelt theme song and the smiling faces of children of different skin colors vividly interpret the Beijing Olympics' theme of "One World, One Dream."

"You and I, heart to heart, live in the same global village."

For our dreams, we traveled thousands of miles and met in Beijing.

Come on, friend, reach out your hand.

···

"It's beautiful, this song is simply amazing, it matches the 2008 Olympics so perfectly, it's unparalleled in its harmony. It's just that the melody of this song is destined not to become a pop song. It's a good song, a masterpiece, but it can't become a classic."

"A great song, great lyrics, great singing skills, but this song is destined not to be widely popular; it has too many limitations."

"What a talent! This song is really good, it's just a pity."

Regarding the song "Me and You," countless people share a similar opinion: it is a rare and excellent song, but its limitations prevent it from becoming widely popular and sung by many.

Then comes the entrance ceremony, the time for which is as follows.

When the host team, China, entered the stadium, the entire Bird's Nest erupted in cheers. China's flag bearer wasn't a nationally renowned athlete or a celebrity, but a nine-year-old boy. However, this boy was special; he was a survivor of the recent 512 Wenchuan earthquake.

At 11:36 PM, a moment eagerly awaited by everyone arrived. With the President's announcement, "The 29th Olympic Games in Beijing are now open!"

In an instant, dazzling fireworks lit up the night sky, rousing melodies resounded throughout the venue, colorful flags waved, and cheers rang out for a long time.
