Photos of torch lighting for Paralympic Games

At the opening ceremony of the Beijing Paralympic Games, Mr. Zhang Yimou will arrange for the blind athlete Li Duan to light the main torch of the Paralympic Games. Personally, I think there are two reasons. First, I am confident that Li Duan can successfully complete the task and create myths and miracles; Secondly, this approach is more in line with the theme of the Winter Paralympics and can inspire all disabled people in the world.

I want to shock the audience and create a precedent for the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games. Since ancient times, China has been a country that strives for self-improvement and innovation. All citizens have the spirit of not being afraid of hardship and fatigue and being brave in innovation. Many world miracles were born under such circumstances.

As a senior director, Mr. Zhang Yimou has many excellent works. He is the general director of the 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympics, which shows that the country recognizes his talent and ability.

At the opening ceremony of the Winter Paralympics, it was also a bold and innovative move to choose the blind athlete Li Duan to light the main torch of the Winter Paralympics. I want to bring different feelings to audiences all over the world in this way. Choosing blind people to light the torch also set a historical precedent for the Paralympic Games.

Second, in line with the theme of the Winter Paralympics, encourage more disabled people. After the successful conclusion of the Winter Olympics, the Winter Paralympics will be held soon, which is a grand event exclusively for disabled athletes. In order to make the opening ceremony more exciting and give the blind people more opportunities to make their own achievements, Mr. Zhang Yimou participated in the performance of the program, among which 30% were disabled.

Dedicated to their grand event, choose a blind athlete to light the flame of the Winter Paralympic Games. Although this kind of behavior is bold, it has a very good meaning and is more suitable for the background and theme of the Winter Paralympic Games.

At the moment when Li Duan successfully lit the Olympic flame, the audience cheered for it, which was unprecedented. With this arrangement, Mr. Zhang Yimou has inspired disabled people all over the world to strive for self-improvement and lead a brilliant life.
