But for millions of Chinese in the interior of the country, far away from Beijing and the other cities on the east coast, the Olympics will have little relevance to their lives.

CHANGSHA, Hunan – Mao launched his revolution from Changsha, but from this provincial capital of 2 million the Olympics seem very distant. Beijing and other cities are frenziedly transforming themselves into showcase cities for the 2008 Olympics, but in China’s interior, where 60 percent of the population lives, the Olympics are just something you watch on television.
Opening Ceremony for the 2008 Olympics is on Friday, August 8, 2008
The Closing Ceremony is on Sunday, August 24, 2008
